A Generic Compliance Modeling Method for Two-Axis Elliptical-Arc-Filleted Flexure Hinges
As a kind of important flexible joint, two-axis flexure hinges can realize in-plane and out-of-plane motions and can be used for constructing flexure-based spatial compliant mechanisms. The paper introduces a common two-axis elliptical-arc-filleted flexure hinge that is generated by two different elliptical-arc-filleted cutout profiles and that provides some new hinge types. The analytical comp...
متن کاملA Novel Analytical Model for Flexure-Based Compliant Proportion Mechanisms
This paper proposes a novel analytical model for flexure-based proportion compliant mechanisms. The displacement and stiffness calculations of such flexure-based compliant mechanisms are formulated based on the principle of virtual work and pseudo rigid body model(PRBM). According to the theory and method, a set of closed-form equations are deduced in this paper, which incorporate the stiffness...
متن کاملDesign Optimization of Flexure Hinges Profile Using FEM and Experimental Verification in Piezoelectric Actuators
In this paper, flexure hinges as the main part of the actuators frame are studied considering different profiles of flexure hinges and effective design parameters to introduce the best profile of the hinge based on the application that is needed. For this purpose five different profiles (right circular, elliptical, corner-filleted, hyperbolic and parabolic) of flexure hinges have been considere...
متن کاملLarge Stroke Performance Optimization of Spatial Flexure Hinges
Flexure hinges inherently lose stiffness in supporting directions when deflected. In this paper a method is presented for optimizing the geometry of flexure hinges, while supporting stiffnesses are retained. These hinges are subjected to a load and deflected an angle of up to ±20°. The measure of performance is defined by the first unwanted eigenfrequency, which is closely related to the suppor...
متن کاملA simple and efficient dynamic modelling method for compliant micropositioning mechanisms using flexure hinges
In this paper we consider the dynamic modelling of compliant micropositioning mechanisms using flexure hinges. A simple modelling method is presented that is particularly useful for modelling parallel micropositioning mechanisms. This method is based upon linearisation of the geometric constraint equations of the compliant mechanism. This results in a linear kinematic model, a constant Jacobian...
