Singular configurations and direct kinematics of a new parallel manipulator
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present in this paper a new mechanical architecture for a parallel manipulator. We address the problem of the determination of the singular configurations of this architecture. Then we show that the direct kinematic problem has at most 16 solutions and exhibit an algorithm to find all the solutions.

Forward Position Kinematics of a Parallel Manipulator with New Architecture
The forward position kinematics (FPK) of a parallel manipulator with new architecture supposed to be used as a moving mechanism in a flight simulator project is discussed in this paper. The closed form solution for the FPK problem of the manipulator is first determined. It has, then, been shown that there are at most 24 solutions for FPK problem. This result has been verified by using other tec...
متن کاملSymbolic computation for the Determination of the Minimal direct kinematics Polynomial and the Singular configurations of parallel manipulators
In this paper we will address the problems of parallel manipulator’s direct kinematics (i.e. find the position and orientation of the mobile plate as a function of the articular coordinates) and the determination of their singular configurations. We will show how symbolic computation has been used to determine the minimal degree of a polynomial formulation of the direct kinematic problem togeth...
متن کاملKinematic analysis of the 3-RPR parallel manipulator
The aim of this paper is the kinematic study of a 3-RPR planar parallel manipulator where the three fixed revolute joints are actuated. The direct and inverse kinematic problem as well as the singular configuration is characterized. On parallel singular configurations, the motion produce by the mobile platform can be compared to the Reuleaux straight-line mechanism.
متن کاملSingularity Analysis of a 3-rrrr Redundant Spherical Parallel Manipulator
ABSTRACT Study of parallel manipulators highlights the importance of identifying singular configurations (singularities) during the design, and of avoiding them during the operation; because in these configurations the instantaneous kinematics of the manipulator becomes indeterminate. This paper focuses on the determination of singular configurations of a kinematically redundant 3-RRRR spherica...
متن کاملKinematic Analysis and Design of a New 3-DOF Translational Parallel Manipulator
A new three degrees of freedom (3-DOF) translational parallel manipulator (TPM) with fixed actuators called a 3-PRC TPM is proposed in this paper. The mobility of the manipulator is analyzed via screw theory. The inverse kinematics, forward kinematics, and velocity analysis are performed and the singular and isotropic configurations are identified afterward. Moreover, the mechanism design to el...
