This paper presents an impedance model to describe the load and formulates compliance strategies correspondingly to reduce the mutual reaction load for forging manipulator. Firstly, an FEM model of forging process is built. Meanwhile, the clamp of forging manipulator is added to the model as movement constraint and interaction part between the manipulator and the forming process. Secondly, a typical forging process is simulated by changing the movement constraint, and then an impedance model is established to describe the relationship between the load and movement constraint. Finally, two kinds of compliance strategies are formulated according to the impedance model, one is called free compliance, and the other is initiative/passive compliance. The simulation results show that compliance strategies reduce the load amounting to 5 000 kN in z direction between the manipulator clamp and the forging blank obviously, which may lead to serious accidents, such as the capsizing of forging manipulator, the fracture of manipulator clamp, and so on. The proposed research simulates the more real forging process, gets the initiative/passive compliance strategy which is more simple and suitable to the real producing and better for forming a forging process planning and control system in the modern production, and improves the quality and efficiency of heavy forging.展开更多

This paper presents a 2-RPR/RP planar redundantly actuated parallel manipulator which can self-coordinate the distribution of external loads. This capability is realized by an appropriate design of the moving platform to make the manipulator stable at equilibrium position. The stability is proved by the theorem of direct Lyapunov method in classical mechanics. The numerical simulations are conducted to validate the stable capability by means of the observation of potential energies and phase planes. This paper offers an alternative way to design a redundantly actuated manipulator with the capability of self-coordinating the load distribution to actuations, such that parts of the controlling work are assigned to the manipulator itself by its own structure and only a little work remains to the control system.展开更多

Pulse oximeter based on near-infrared spectroscopy is commonly used as a non-invasive method to measure SpO2 yl. Currently, medical device manufacturers as well as metrology measurement agencies in China usually use pulse oximeter simulator as the commonly accepted functional calibration equipment for pulse oximeters. So far, no experimental protocol or devices can be used to test the accuracy and reliability of a pulse oximeter simulator. Therefore, a set of new metrology apparatus with the name of calibration device for pulse oximeter simulator have been designed in order to make a traceable system for the calibration or verification of pulse oximeter simulators. The principles and some research methods of this calibration device for pulse oximeter simulator will be discussed in this paper. Besides that, many experiments have been applied in order to guarantee the accuracy as well as traceability of this set of device.展开更多
