RISDesign and Analysis of Leaf Beam Single-Translation Constraint Compliant Modules and the Resulting Spherical Joints
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A wire beam is a single-translation constraint along its axial direction. It offers many applications in compliant mechanisms, such as being a transmitting/decoupling element connected to a linear actuator and being a ...
A Compact Mirror-Symmetrical XY Compliant Parallel Manipulator for Minimizing Parasitic Rotations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The design of XY compliant parallel manipulators (CPMs) remains challenging considering the tradeoff between mirror-symmetry for better constrained undesired rotations and a small footprint, although a significant number ...
Nonlinear Design of a General Single-Translation Constraint and the Resulting General Spherical Joint
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Compliant mechanisms, such as compliant spherical parallel joints, play a vital role in engineering applications, often relying on single-translation constraint wire beams. However, these wire beams have inherent shortcomings, ...

Nonlinear Analysis of a Class of Inversion-Based Compliant Cross-Spring Pivots
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This article presents a nonlinear model of an inversion-based generalized cross-spring pivot (IG-CSP) using the beam constraint model (BCM), which can be employed for the geometric error analysis and the characteristic ...
