The Application of Self-Adaptive Design in Improvement of the Restoring Strand Operation Mechanism

Abstract:

Aiming at solving the problem that the existing restoring strand operation mechanism cannot realize self-adaption to the variation of position and shape of transmission lines, a method for self-adaptive mechanism design is introduced and summarized to meliorate the mechanism. This method is effective and practical, which can be applied to most common mechanism design: first of all, analyze the structural features of the self-adaptive mechanism; secondly, establish a universal method to determine the structure type named as initial kinematic chain which contains information of the degree of freedom (DOF), the number of links and the kinematic relations between every two of them; finally, considering the features of the existing mechanism, apply the self-adaption design to realize the required mechanism by inverting the initial kinematic chain, and build models and simulations to prove that the improved mechanism does have the ability of self-adaption to the location and shape variation of transmission lines.
