چکیده

This paper characterizes geometrically the singularities of limited DOF parallel manipulators. The geometric conditions associated with the dependency of six Plücker vector of lines (finite and infinite) constituting the rows of the inverse Jacobian matrix are formulated using GrassmannCayley algebra. Manipulators under consideration do not need to have a passive spherical joint somewhere in each leg. This study is illustrated with three example robots.

Singularity Analysis of Lower Mobility Parallel Manipulators Using Grassmann-Cayley Algebra

1  Abstract—This paper introduces a methodology to analyze geometrically the singularities of manipulators, of which legs apply both actuation forces and constraint moments to their moving platform. Lower-mobility parallel manipulators and parallel manipulators, of which some legs do not have any spherical joint, are such manipulators. The geometric conditions associated with the dependency of...

Singularity analysis of the H4 robot using Grassmann-Cayley algebra

This paper extends a recently proposed singularity analysis method to lower-mobility parallel manipulators having an articulated nacelle. Using screw theory, a twist graph is introduced in order to simplify the constraint analysis of such manipulators. Then, a wrench graph is obtained in order to represent some points at infinity on the Plücker lines of the Jacobian matrix. Using GrassmannCayle...

Uncertainty Singularity Analysis of Parallel Manipulators Based on the Instability Analysis of Structures

When all the inputs of a parallel manipulator (PM) are locked, the manipulator is usually turned into a structure. When an uncertainty singularity occurs for a PM, the latter structure is unstable or, in other words, it may undergo infinitesimal or finite motion. Hence, the investigation of the uncertainty singularities of a PM can be reduced to the instability analysis of its corresponding str...

Conceptual design of Schoenflies motion generators based on the wrench graph

The subject of this paper is about the conceptual design of parallel Schoenflies motion generators based on the wrench graph. By using screw theory and Grassmann geometry, some conditions on both the constraint and the actuation wrench systems are generated for the assembly of limbs of parallel Schoenflies motion generators, i.e., 3T1R parallel manipulators. Those conditions are somehow related...
