文摘A special form of the Stewart platform is presented in which the top platform and base platform are similar and corresponding vertices are connected by six prismatic joints.A closed-from solution for the forward displacement analysis of this mechanism is developed.When the six vertices of the top platform are in a quadratic curve,this mechanism becomes singular.This new theoretical result is confirmed with a numerical example.
