Freemantle straight-line linkage from British Patent 2741, November 17, 1803. demonstrated by a study of mechanisms already in existence, such as the linkage of a retractable landing gear, computing mechanisms, mechanisms used in an automobile, and the like. In the present invention, the rotation unit is coupled to the joint unit. In the present invention, the base end part of either one of the sub arm member or the main arm member is linearly movable by the second ball screw. You can help Wikipedia by expanding it. Therefore, the posture of the joint unit can be controlled freely. Further, when both of the base end parts of both of the arm members are moved in the same direction by the same amount, both of the arm members can be moved entirely while keeping their postures. The SR mechanism in combination with a parallelogram mechanism enables the achievement of a pure translation of the gripper tips, which is attractive for practical micromanipulation and microassembly applications. Moreover, in the present invention, the base end part of either one of the sub arm member or the main arm member is linearly movable by the second ball screw. Therefore, the application of the Scott Russell mechanism device according to the present invention expands. Jasen Russell tendre la recherche. However, since both of the arm members are arranged offset from each other in the overlapped direction, a problem arises that the thickness dimension (dimension in the direction overlapping both of the arm members) of the device increases, and since the centers of both of the arm members in the thickness direction do not match with each other, a problem also arises that the balance in weight degrades in both of the entire arm members. In the present invention, the gripping unit is attached to the tip end side of the pivoting unit. In the present invention, the pivoting of the joint unit pivotably coupled to the tip end part of the main arm member is driven by the pivot driving unit. This paper presents the structural design and analysis of a novel compliant gripper based on the Scott-Russell (SR) mechanism.

Since the postures of these units on the tip end side depend on the direction (posture) of the tip end of the main arm member, a problem arises that a range in which the postures of the units attached to the tip end of the main arm member can be changed is limited. wherein the device comprises a pivoting drive source for driving the pivots of the main arm member and the sub arm member centering on the pivoting axis. A pivoting axis of the pivot of the joint unit may be in parallel to an axis of the pivots of the main arm member and the sub arm member at the coupling position. This paper presents the structural design and analysis of a novel compliant gripper based on the Scott-Russell (SR) mechanism.
