In this paper, we perform a mechanism anlysis and optyimal designof the feeding system in a industrial sewing machine. Sewing machines are classified by the transfer mechanism as (1) transferred by feed dog only (2) transferred by feed dog and needle (3) transferred by feed dog, needle and pressure bar. We took the dewing machine classified as (2) which is more efficient in transferring the clothes than the machine classified as (1). In analyzing the mechanism, we divide the feeding mechanism as feed dog mechanism and needle bar mechanism. The two mechanisms are connected with each other kinematically because the clothes are transferred by needle and feed dog simultaneously and stitched by needle which pass through the feed dog in every stitchcycle. We define good stitch as coincidence of stitch between the forward and reverse motion of feeding. And we optimize feeding mechanism for that purpose. It is illustrated that stitching performance of the optimized mechanism is compared to original feeding mechanism.

Non-explosive shockless holding and release mechanism for a nano class small satellite application has been proposed and investigated. The great advantages of the mechanism are a much lower shock level and larger constraint force than the conventional mechanism using pyro and the heating wire cutting mechanism which has been generally applied to the cube satellite program. To investigate the effectiveness of the mechanism design, EM mechanism was developed and tested to verify the basic function of the mechanism. The test results indicate that the proposed mechanism is well functioning as the mechanism design intends.

In this paper, we perform a mechanism analysis and optimal design of the feeding system in a industrial sewing machine. Sewing machines are classified by the transfer mechanism as (1) transferred by feeddog only (2) transferred by feeddog and needle (3) transferred by feeddog, needle and pressure bar. The sewing machine classified as (2) is studied which is more efficient in transferring fabrics than the machine classified as (1). In analyzing the mechanism, we divide the feeding mechanism as feeddog mechanism and needle bar mechanism. The two mechanisms are conneted with each other kinematically because fabrics are transferred by two needles and a feeddog simultaneously and stitched by two needles which pass through the feeddog in every stitch cycle. We define good stitch as coincidence of stitch between the forward and reverse motion of feeding. We optimize the feeding mechanism for that purpose. It is illustrated that stitching performance of the optimized mechanism is compared to original feeding mechanism.

A displacement magnification mechanism is usually employed in a nano-positioning stage to achieve a large stage motion. A lever mechanism is the most widely used displacement magnifying mechanism. For more large stage motion, double or multiple lever mechanisms can be used. In this case, a more accurate analysis model is needed. This study proposes a more reasonable analysis model for a multiple lever mechanism based on the single lever mechanism model. This paper describes that the high equivalent stiffness of the lever is the most important factor reducing the magnification ratio of the lever mechanism through increasing the deflection of the link and including the axial displacement of the pivot.

The mechanism design is synthesis of suitable mechanism which can be output motions about input motions. That has generally two steps which are the type synthesis and the dimensional synthesis. And required mechanism analysis step for confirming middle or final result. The type synthesis is definition of mechanism type which required aim and the dimensional synthesis is calculation of dimension about defined type mechanism. The type synthesis of mechanism is included qualitative design field which isn't defined systematic design method. especially, the most difficult step for mechanism design automation. In this paper proposed the component modular design method which is figured mechanism types automate with component modules using component modular approach. And develop CAD(Computer Aided Program) program for application.

In this work, we investigate the quasi-static crawling of the four-bar mechanism. Since the crawling of the mechanism is based on sliding of contact points of the mechanism with the ground, interaction forces and friction forces at contact points of the mechanism with the ground should be computed. For this purpuse, we introduce the concept of imaginary joints to find these forces. Therefore, we are able to treat the closed mechanism as a serial one. Also, sliding conditions of the mechanism in quasi-static equilibrium are examined. Lastly, the required torques for the mechanism to crawl with respect to various configurations of the mechanism but with a fixed ground friction are investigated.

In this study, a translational 3-DOF parallel mechanism formed by constraining the Stewart Platform Mechanism is investigated. The translational 3-DOF parallel mechanism has three struts(3-UPS type serial subchains) and in addition, has a PPP type serial subchain in the middle of the mechanism. Firstly, the closed-form forward and reverse position solutions are derived for this mechanism. And analysis on kinematic characteristics using isotropic index of the Jacobian is conducted to examine effects of design parameters for the mechanism. Lastly, a prototype mechanism is implemented and the kinematic performance of the translational 3-DOF parallel mechanism was verified through experimental work.

For this purpose, we introduce the concept of imaginary joints to find these forces and treat the closed mechanism as a serial one. Lastly, the required torques for the mechanism to crawl with respect to various configurations of the mechanism on a flat ground with uniform friction coefficient, based on sliding conditions of the mechanism in quasi-static equilibrium, are investigated.

In many automatization applications, a rigid body is required to go forward and backward repeatedly through a set of given position/orientations precisely while a crank is rotated. Such a motion can be generated by 6 bar mechanism adding a dyad to a 4 bar mechanism. If this is the case for 3 position synthesis of the 4 bar mechanism, the feasible solution area for designing the 4 bar mechanism will be limited over the general solution area. This paper proposes a procedure to synthesize 4 bar mechanism to be used to generate the required motion. It is found that the only input crank of the 4 bar mechanism should be limited to satisfy the condition. And the feasible design area for the circle point/ center point of the input crank is identified so that design of the undesired mechanism could be avoided. The method is tested and the results are shown.

In this paper, a forearm Mechanism design inspired by ligamentous structure of the human body is proposed. The proposed mechanism consists of four rigid bodies and fourteen wires without any mechanical joints. Actually, the mechanism is based on the concept of the tensegrity structure. Therefore, the proposed mechanism has inherently compliant characteristics due to the flexibility of the wires composing the structure. Rigid bodies and wires of the mechanism mimic bones and major ligaments in the forearm of the human. The proposed mechanism is classified as one of the interconnected hybrid flexure systems. The analysis method of the degree of freedom (DOF) of the proposed mechanism is also introduced through analyzing technique of the interconnected hybrid flexure systems, in this paper. Ultimately, the proposed mechanism, whose structure is complicated with rigid bodies and wires, mathematically drives that it has 3-DOFs.
