The designed platform is composed of 4-DOF parallel mechanism with spherical joints and prismatic pairs,and 2-DOF serial mechanism with prismatic pairs. With this design,the platform has advantages of low platform countertop,big workspace,high carrying capacity and high stiffness. On the basis of DOF analysis and computation of space mechanism,weight supporting auxiliary mechanism and raceways-balls supporting mechanism are designed,so as to improve the stiffness of designed large platform and payload capacity of servo motors.

This mechanism possesses the characteristics of two kinds of parallel mechanism. Based on its topologic structure, a coordinate system for position analysis is set-up and the forward kinematic solutions are analyzed. It was found that the parallel mechanism is partially decoupled. The relationship between original errors and position-stance error of moving platform is built according to the complete differential-coefficient theory. Then we present a special example with theory values and errors to evaluate the error model, and numerical error solutions are gained. The investigations concentrating on mechanism errors and actuator errors show that the mechanism errors have more influences on the position-stance of the moving platform. It is demonstrated that improving manufacturing and assembly techniques can greatly reduce the moving platform error. The small change in position-stance error in different kinematic positions proves that the error-compensation of software can improve considerably the precision of parallel mechanism.展开更多

In this kind of machine structure, the total mass of moving parts including work-pieces, fixtures, rotating table, wor king table and so on is often very large. Besides, the elastic reform of transmi ssion and the viscous friction force of the guide can not be ignored.

The emergence of virtual-axis machine tool has provided a new approach for the solution of the above problems. The kernel of the virtual-axis machine tool is the parallel mechanism. So far, research of parallel mechanism in the world has achieved many results and various applied equipments based on parallel mecha nism have been worked out, but the research generally focuses on the working spa ce and kinematics analysis, dynamics are rarely considered. To meet the requirements of the modern fast and efficient production, reduce the cost and promote the machine tool’s acceleration character, not only should we analyze the kinematics of machine tool, but also we should study its dynamics a nd optimize the structure on the basis of analysis. In this paper, the kinem atics and dynamics of a 5-DOF (degrees of freedom) machine tool with novel para llel mechanism that has three moving DOF and one rotating DOF are studied by Rob ot-Wittenberg method. The dynamics character of the parallel robotic machine is analyzed and used to guide the structure design of machine tool. At last, the c orrectness is verified through a numerical simulation of 5-DOF. Hence, the dyna mics model can generally solve the problems existing in the parallel and hybrid machine tools. The dynamics character of the parallel robotic machine is studied and analyzed in quantity.
