Dynamic modelling and response analysis of end-articulated spatial parallel robot with multi-clearance joints
Due to manufacturing and assembly errors, clearances are inevitably present in the joints of a mechanism. Moreover, various external factors exacerbate the complexity and instability of contact-impact interactions in clearance joints, which can significantly affect the motion accuracy and dynamic characteristics of the mechanism. However, existing analyses of mechanisms with clearances have mainly focused on simple planar or spatial mechanisms, while research on complex spatial parallel mechanisms with clearances remains limited. Therefore, this paper takes a novel end-articulated complex spatial parallel robot (named ‘Y3’) as the research object. Firstly, the ideal multi-body dynamic model of the robot is established. Secondly, an impact force model considering the Flores normal contact force and the modified Coulomb tangential friction force is established. On this basis, a modeling method for multi-body dynamics with multi-clearance joints applicable to complex spatial mechanisms based on the Lagrange multiplier method is proposed, and the theoretical model is verified by simulation employing ADAMS. Finally, this paper analyzes the effects of clearance number, clearance size, end load and friction coefficient on the robot’s dynamic response. The research results indicate that the developed multi-body dynamic model with clearances exhibits high accuracy, and clearances have a significant impact on the dynamic response of the robot. Increasing the number of clearances, enlarging the clearance size, and increasing the load will all exacerbate the instability of the robot's dynamic response to varying degrees. While a higher friction coefficient can improve stability, it simultaneously accelerates joint wear and shortens their service life. The results provide a theoretical basis for the precision manufacturing and improved performance of complex spatial parallel robots, with high engineering application value.
期刊介绍:
Applied Mathematical Modelling focuses on research related to the mathematical modelling of engineering and environmental processes, manufacturing, and industrial systems. A significant emerging area of research activity involves multiphysics processes, and contributions in this area are particularly encouraged.
This influential publication covers a wide spectrum of subjects including heat transfer, fluid mechanics, CFD, and transport phenomena; solid mechanics and mechanics of metals; electromagnets and MHD; reliability modelling and system optimization; finite volume, finite element, and boundary element procedures; modelling of inventory, industrial, manufacturing and logistics systems for viable decision making; civil engineering systems and structures; mineral and energy resources; relevant software engineering issues associated with CAD and CAE; and materials and metallurgical engineering.
Applied Mathematical Modelling is primarily interested in papers developing increased insights into real-world problems through novel mathematical modelling, novel applications or a combination of these. Papers employing existing numerical techniques must demonstrate sufficient novelty in the solution of practical problems. Papers on fuzzy logic in decision-making or purely financial mathematics are normally not considered. Research on fractional differential equations, bifurcation, and numerical methods needs to include practical examples. Population dynamics must solve realistic scenarios. Papers in the area of logistics and business modelling should demonstrate meaningful managerial insight. Submissions with no real-world application will not be considered.
