10 Kinematic Analysis of Spatial Mechanisms

DOI: 10.1201/9781003316961-10

CONCEPT OVERVIEW

In this chapter, the reader will gain a central understanding regarding

  1. Advantages and disadvantages of spatial mechanisms and the ongoing aim of spatial mechanism modeling
  2. Intermediate and total spatial kinematics of the RRSS, RSSR, and 4R spherical mechanisms
  3. Planar mechanism kinematic analysis using spatial mechanism kinematic models

10.1 Introduction

Planar mechanisms are restricted to motion in two-dimensional or planar space. Spatial mechanisms can exhibit three-dimensional or spatial motion. Spatial mechanism motion is predominantly determined by the degrees of freedom of the mechanism joints used and spatial orientation of the joints.
