Kinematic analysis was made on a gear type high speed planting mechanism for riding-type rice transplanters. The kinematic equations thus derived were computer coded to simulate its motion characteristics such as a planting locus, velocities and accelerations of gears and planting knife, etc. Using the simulation program a sensitivity analysis of design parameters was also carried out to determine their effects on the planting performance. Of the design parameters the eccentricity of the gear was found most influential.

In this paper, we perform a two-stage, kinematic optimal design for 3 degree-of-freedom excavator system which consists of boom, arm, and bucket. The objective of the first stage is to find the optimal joint parameters which maximize the force-torque transmission ratio between the hydraulic actuator and the rotating joint. The objective of the first stage is to find the optimal link parameters which maximize the isotropic characteristic throughout the workspace. It is illustrated that performances of the optimized excavator are improved compared to those of HE280 excavator, with respect to the described performace index and maximum load handling capacity.

본 논문은 자동차 현가장치의 기구적 특성에 대한 설계 최적화에 관한 것이다. 현가장치의 기구적 특성은 토우 및 캠버와 같은 바퀴의 자세를 결정하며 이것은 주행 중 타이어의 마모에 관련될 뿐만 아니라 차량의 운동성능인 조종안정성에 큰 영향을 미친다. 따라서 설계 초기단계에서 현가장치 기구의 특성을 결정하는 것은 매우 중요한 일이다. 본 논문에서는 맥퍼슨 스트러트식 현가장치에 대한 현가장치의 기구적 특성을 파악하기 위하여 변위해석을 수행하였다. 이를 위해 현가장치 기구를 구성하는 조인트에 대한 구속방정식을 세우고 이를 풀 수 있는 프로그램을 작성하였다. 또한 원하고자 하는 현가장치의 기구적 특성을 얻기 위하여 설계 최적화 프로그램인 ADS를 이용하였다. 최적화를 위한 설계변수로서 현가장치의 차체 부착점인 하드 포인트의 좌표로 설정하였으며 목표함수로서 바퀴의 상하운동에 대한 토우-인의 합으로 정의하였다. 구속함수로서 설계 시 제한조건인 최대 캠버각과 최저 롤 중심고를 고려하였다. 본 연구의 결과로서 두 가지 구속함수를 만족하고 토우-인의 변화를 최소로 하는 하드 포인트의 최적위치를 결정할 수 있었다.

In synthesizing and RSSS-SC mechanism that is the kinematic model of the McPherson strut suspension system in automobiles, the design equations for R-S, S-S and S-C dyads should be solved separately for a given set of prescribed positions. The number of prescribed positions that the RSSS-SC mechanism can be synthesized is up to three because of the S-C dyad. This limitation may cause unsatisfactory results in synthesized joint positions. This paper presents a kinematic synthesis method to place the joints of an RSSS-SC mechanism in desired boundaries by varying the prescribed positions of the mechanism within acceptable tolerances. The sensitivity analysis of the joint positions is used determine which displacement parameter should be altered to fulfill this task.

This paper presents a new hybrid serial-parallel robot(HSPR), which has six degrees of freedom driven by ball screw linear actuators and motored joints. This hybrid robot design presents a compromise between high rigidity of fully parallel manipulators and extended workspace of serial manipulators. The hybrid robot has a large, singularity-free workspace and high stiffness. Therefore, the presented kinematic structure of the hybrid robot is particularly suitable for multi-tasking machining processes such as milling, drilling, deburring and grinding. In addition to the machining processes, the hybrid robot can be used for welding, fixturing, material handling and so on. The study on design of the hybrid robot is performed. A kinematic analysis and mechanism description of the hybrid robot with six-controlled degree of freedom is presented. In the virtual design works by DADS, workspace and force analysis are discussed. A numerical model is treated to demonstrate our analysis and to determine the range of permissible extension of the struts. Also, we determine some important design parameters for the hybrid robot.

In this study, a series of three-dimensional numerical analyses were carried out to investigate the penetration performance of a dynamically installed Hall anchor. The advanced coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian (CEL) technique was adopted to accurately simulate the large soil deformation during the vertical penetration of a Hall anchor. In total, 52 numerical analyses were conducted to investigate the relationship between anchor penetration depth and the initial kinematic energy. Moreover, a sensitivity analysis was performed to investigate the effects of soil shear strength and soil type on the penetration mechanism of a drop anchor under self-weight. There is a monotonic increase in the penetration depth with an increasing anchor weight when the topsoil of the riverbed is not subjected to erosion. On the other hand, all the computed depths significantly increase when soil erosion is taken into consideration. This is mainly due to an enhanced initial kinematic energy from an increased dropping depth. Both depths increase exponentially with the initial kinematic energy. An enhanced shear strength can potentially increase the side resistance and end-bearing pressure around a drop anchor, thus significantly reducing the downward penetration of a hall anchor. Design charts are developed to directly estimate penetration depth and associated plastic zone due to dynamically installed anchor at arbitrary soil shear strength and anchor kinematic energy.

Since PSD(Platform Screen Door) is set up at many subway stations, its design related to a safety becomes gradually important. Especially the intereference check with a running railway vehicle is the most important of performance indices. This study proposes a dynamic analysis models for the railway vehicle and rail. Some design parameters are considered in the models to find a correlation to the performance.

In this paper, kinematic analysis and design of constant force mechanisms which employ a linear spring are studied. Firstly, sufficient conditions for the mechanisms to be the constant force mechanisms are derived in terms of displacement variables through the kinematic analysis. Secondly, a few conceptual mechanisms satisfying these constraints are proposed.

Parallel Kinematic Mechanism (PKM) is a device to perform the various motion in three-dimensional space and it calls for six degree of freedom. For example, Parallel Kinematic Mechanism is applied to machine tools, medical equipments, MEMS, virtual reality devices and flight motion simulators. Recently, many companies have tried to develop new Parallel Kinematic Mechanism in order to improve the cycle time and the precisional tolerance. Parallel Kinematic Mechanism uses general universal joint and spherical joint, but such joints have accumulated tolerance problems. Therefore, it causes position control problem and dramatically life time reduction. This paper focused on the rolling element to improve sliding precision in new sliding ball joint development. Before the final design and production, it was confirmed that new sliding ball joint held a higher load and a good geometrical structure. FEM analysis showed a favorable agreement with tensile and compressive testing results by universal testing machine. In conclusions, a new sliding ball joint has been developed to solve a problem of accumulated tolerance and verified using tensile and compressive testing as well as FEM analysis.

This paper concerns the kinematic characteristics of a coupling device in a deep-seabed mining system. This coupling device connects the buffer system and the flexible pipe. The motion of the buffer system, flexible pipe and mining robot are affected by the coupling device. So the coupling device should be considered as a major factor when this device is designed. Therefore, we find a stable kinematic device, and apply it to the design coupling device through this study. The kinematic characteristics of the coupling device are analyzed by multi-body dynamics simulation method, and finite element method. The dynamic analysis model was built in the commercial software DAFUL. The Fluid Structure Interaction (FSI) method is applied to build the deep-seabed environment. Hydrodynamic force and moment are applied in the dynamic model for the FSI method. The loads and deformation of flexible pipe are estimated for analysis results of the kinematic characteristics.
