Abstract
- A novel 2PRS-2PSS (P represents the prismatic pair, R represents the revolute hinge, S represents the spherical hinge) compliant parallel micromanipulator with two translational DOFs and two rotational DOFs is presented, and its compliance model and kinetostatic model are sequentially developed and analyzed. Initially, an analytical model used to describe the compliance of this micromanipulator was developed using the compliance matrix method (CMM). Through a comparison with finite element analysis, the accuracy of this analytical model is confirmed, and the influence of various dimensional and structural parameters on the compliance behavior is investigated. Subsequently, the micromanipulator is treated as an equivalent spring system, allowing for the derivation of its governing equation based on the established compliance model. From this equation, a kinetostatic model relating input forces to output displacements is derived. Validation of this model is performed by comparing analytical results with finite element simulations under specific motion trajectories, revealing a maximum relative error of 6.18%. This close agreement verifies the accuracy of the kinetostatic model. Finally, the impact of the parameters of the flexure hinge on the mapping matrix is examined to offer insights into minimizing undesired displacements, providing valuable guidance for optimizing the micromanipulator’s performance.
