Cuspidal Robots

چکیده

This chapter is dedicated to the so-called cuspidal robots, i.e. those robots that can move from one inverse geometric solution to another without meeting a singular confuguration. This feature was discovered quite recently and has then been fascinating a lot of researchers. After a brief history of cuspidal robots, the chapter provides the main features of cuspidal robots: explanation of the non-singular change of posture, uniqueness domains, regions of feasible paths, identification and classification of cuspidal robots. The chapter focuses on 3-R orthogonal serial robots. The case of 6-dof robots and parallel robots is discussed in the end of this chapter.

Changing Assembly Modes without Passing Parallel Singularities in Non-Cuspidal 3-RPR Planar Parallel Robots

This paper demonstrates that any general 3-DOF three-legged planar parallel robot with extensible legs can change assembly modes without passing through parallel singularities (configurations where the mobile platform loses its stiffness). While the results are purely theoretical, this paper questions the very definition of parallel singularities.

Cuspidal Cohomology for Principal Congruence Subgroups of Gl(3, Z)

The cohomology of arithmetic groups is made up of two pieces, the cuspidal and noncuspidal parts. Within the cuspidal cohomology is a subspace— the /-cuspidal cohomology—spanned by the classes that generate representations of the associated finite Lie group which are cuspidal in the sense of finite Lie group theory. Few concrete examples of /-cuspidal cohomology have been computed geometrically...

Singularities of Parallel Surfaces

We investigate singularities of all parallel surfaces to a given regular surface. In generic context, the types of singularities of parallel surfaces are cuspidal edge, swallowtail, cuspidal lips, cuspidal beaks, cuspidal butterfly and 3-dimensional D4 singularities. We give criteria for these singularities types in terms of differential geometry (Theorem 3.4 and 3.5).

Cuspidal and Noncuspidal Robot Manipulators

This article synthezises the most important results on the kinematics of cuspidal manipulators i.e. nonredundant manipulators that can change posture without meeting a singularity. The characteristic surfaces, the uniqueness domains and the regions of feasible paths in the workspace are defined. Then, several sufficient geometric conditions for a manipulator to be noncuspidal are enumerated and...
