Description
Technical Field
The utility model relates to the field of robots, in particular to a parallel-series-parallel type high-load-dead-weight-ratio mechanical arm.
Background
The kinematic mechanisms can be divided into serial mechanisms and parallel mechanisms according to the number of kinematic chains. The series mechanism is an open-loop mechanism in which a plurality of basic rod pieces with single degree of freedom are sequentially connected, the output motion of each front rod piece is the input of a rear rod piece, and only one motion chain is arranged between a base and an end effector; the parallel mechanism is a closed loop mechanism which is formed by connecting a designated platform (base) and a movable platform (end effector) through at least two independent kinematic chains, has two or more degrees of freedom and is driven in a parallel mode.
The series mechanism and the parallel mechanism respectively have advantages and disadvantages: the tandem mechanism is a typical mechanical arm configuration and has the characteristics of large working space and flexible movement, but the driving mechanism of the tandem mechanism is arranged at each joint, so that the tandem mechanism has the defects of large inertia, small load-weight ratio and the like. Compared with a series mechanism, the parallel mechanism has the advantages of high rigidity, high load dead weight ratio, small inertia, high precision and the like, effectively makes up for the defects of the series mechanism, but also has the defects of small working space, kinematic coupling and the like.
The parallel-serial mechanism generally has the common advantages of a serial mechanism and a parallel mechanism, and has better performance. There are three main types of parallel-series mechanism: parallel-series, series-parallel, parallel-series-parallel. The three types have respective application characteristics. The parallel-series configuration parallel mechanism is mainly applied to the field of machine tools, wherein the parallel mechanism combining a 3-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism and a 2-degree-of-freedom series mechanism is most mature in application. This is mainly because the end effector of the machine tool needs to provide a large load while taking into account the flexibility of the effector, while the 3-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism can provide the load requirements required by the effector and to some extent meet the requirements of the working space. The core components of a 5-degree-of-freedom parallel-serial machine tool generally adopt the configuration. The series-parallel connection type parallel mechanism is mainly applied to the fields of surgical operations, large-curved-surface polishing and the like, and mainly because the series mechanism can provide enough large working space and has high motion flexibility, the parallel mechanism at the tail end has a fine posture adjusting function and can be more suitable for the fields of surgical operations requiring fine operations and curved-surface polishing with continuous curvature change. For example, patent CN111469121B discloses a series-parallel type five-degree-of-freedom mechanical arm, which includes: compared with a pure parallel mechanism, the three-freedom-degree series mechanism and the two-freedom-degree parallel mechanism which are connected in series mutually can realize the posture adjustment of five degrees of freedom, increase the working space and reduce the power of a front driving part, but have some defects: for example, the pitching motion of the third link 13 is realized by a single motor and a corresponding driving connection mechanism, and then the revolving motion of the third link 13 is realized by the single motor and the corresponding driving connection mechanism, and the power provided by the single motor is small, so that the end driving load is low, and the requirement of an application scene with high load is difficult to meet.
Therefore, there is a need to provide a more reliable solution.

Referring to fig. 2 to 7, the working principle of the parallel-series-parallel type high-load-dead-weight-ratio mechanical arm of the present embodiment is as follows:
1. base two-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism 1
Referring to fig. 3 to 5, in the base two-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism 1, the first driving mechanism 5 and the second driving mechanism 6 respectively drive the first gimbal pair 113 and the second gimbal pair 123 to move positions, so that the third link 105, the fourth link 301 thereon, and the end two-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism 3 are adjusted in the overall turning posture (rotation around the Z axis) and the pitching posture (rotation around the Y axis), specifically:
when the first motor 51 and the second motor 61 work and drive the first universal pair 113 and the second universal pair 123 to move forwards or backwards together through the first large crank 52 and the second large crank 62, the pitch attitude adjustment of the third connecting rod 105 is realized; specifically, when moving forward together, the third link 105 rotates upward around the fifth gimbal pair 131; when moving backward together, third link 105 rotates in a downward direction around fifth gimbal pair 131;
when the first motor 51 and the second motor 61 work to enable the first universal pair 113 and the second universal pair 123 to move forwards and backwards one by one, the rotation posture adjustment of the third connecting rod 105 is realized; specifically, when the first universal pair 113 moves forward and the second universal pair 123 moves backward, the third connecting rod 105 rotates clockwise around the fifth universal pair 131; when the first gimbal pair 113 moves backward and the second gimbal pair 123 moves forward, the third link 105 rotates counterclockwise around the fifth gimbal pair 131.
2. Third revolute pair 2 and rotary drive mechanism 4
Through the cooperation of the rotation driving mechanism 4 and the third revolute pair 2, the two-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism 3 at the end part can be controlled to perform pitching adjustment relative to the two-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism 1 at the base part, and the method comprises the following specific steps: the rotating motor 41 works to drive the first small arm crank 421 to rotate, and a pulling force or a pushing force is applied to the small arm connecting block 423 through the first small arm connecting rod 422, so that the fourth connecting rod 301 and the two-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism 3 at the upper end part of the fourth connecting rod rotate around the third rotating pair 2 (around the Y axis); when the forearm crank rotates clockwise, the fourth link 301 rotates downward around the third rotary pair 2, and when the forearm crank rotates counterclockwise, the fourth link 301 rotates upward around the third rotary pair 2.
3. End two-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism 3

The adjustment of the swing attitude (rotation about the Z axis) and the pitch attitude (rotation about the Y axis) of the sixth link 305 is realized by controlling the positional movement of the third and fourth gimbal pairs 313, 323.
Similar to the principle of the base two-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism 1, when the third universal pair 313 and the fourth universal pair 323 move forward together, the sixth connecting rod 305 rotates upward around the fifth universal pair 131, and when the third universal pair and the fourth universal pair move backward together, the sixth connecting rod 305 rotates downward around the fifth universal pair 131; when the third universal pair 313 and the fourth universal pair 323 move forwards and backwards one by one, the rotation posture is adjusted.

The working principle analysis of the parallel-series-parallel type high-load-dead-weight-ratio mechanical arm shows that the base two-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism 1 can realize the adjustment of the rotation attitude and the pitching attitude, the end two-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism 3 can also realize the adjustment of the rotation attitude and the pitching attitude, the rotation driving mechanism 4 and the third rotating pair 2 are matched to control the end two-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism 3 to perform pitching adjustment relative to the base two-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism 1, and the superposition of five degrees of freedom enables the mechanical arm to perform X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis translation and five-degree-of-freedom attitude adjustment on the sixth connecting rod 305.
In this embodiment, the third link 105 is driven to operate by two power sources, namely, the first driving mechanism 5 and the second driving mechanism 6, so that a larger driving force can be provided, and the rotation and pitch adjustment functions of the third link 105 can be realized; it is possible to provide twice the driving force compared to using a single drive mechanism of the same power. The end two-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism 3 and the fourth link 301 are both connected to the third link 105, and a larger driving force is provided for the third link 105 through the two driving mechanisms, so that the end functional mechanism arranged on the end sixth link 305 has more choices, and the design and the arrangement of each mechanism on the third link 105 are facilitated.
