A User-Driven Design Framework for Coupled-Serial-Chain Mechanism Synthesis for Assisting Sit-to-Stand Motion
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a novel coupled-serial-chain (CSC) mechanism based multifunctional rehabilitation robot to assist the patients with lower-limb disability in their sit-to-stand (STS) movement. The CSC mechanism is ...
Research on the Influence of Impeller Tip Clearance on the Internal Flow Loss of Axial Circulating Pump Under Unpowered Driven Condition
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An axial-flow pump (AFP) a key hydraulic component in the circulating water system of large ships. When the speed of a large ship meets certain requirements, the AFP operates in the unpowered driven condition and has the ...
A User Motion Data Acquisition and Processing Method for the Design of Rehabilitation Robot With Few Degrees-of-Freedom
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Mechanism with few degrees-of-freedom is an economical solution for rehabilitation robots because it does not need a complicated structure and control system. To provide motion data to design the robot with few degrees-of-freedom, ...
A Fourier Approach to Kinematic Acquisition of Geometric Constraints of Planar Motion for Practical Mechanism Design
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper studies the problem of geometric constraint acquisition from a given planar motion task using Fourier descriptor. In the previous work, we established a computational geometric framework for simultaneous type ...
An Integrated Kinematic Mapping and Fourier Method to Design Spherical Coupled Serial Chain Mechanisms for Single-Joint Rehabilitation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Robotic devices are capable of reducing the physical burden on rehabilitation therapists and providing training programs of good repeatability, high efficiency, and high precision. When designing the kinematic structure ...
