摘要
The workspace of a parallel manipulator is usually smaller than the size of the robot itself. It is important to derive new structures that enjoy the advantages of parallel manipulators and also have a large workspace. In this paper we present two configurations of similar structures RRRS and RRSR with rotating links. The RRRS structure has a relatively large workspace-larger than the size of the robot itself-which is not common in parallel robots. The inverse and forward kinematics of the robots are presented. The workspaces of the robots are compared to similar and well-known structures, such as Eclipse, Alizade, Delta, and Hexa robots.
