SPHERICAL COORDINATE ORIENTATING MECHANISM

Abstract

A mechanism is constructed by twelve-axis geometry and controlled by spherical coordinate, so that all torques in twelve axes can be parallelly integrated. Timing belts, pulleys, hollow shafts, and spur gears onto four arc-link sets are included. Via these transmission components, base arc-links can be indirectly but synchronously rotated by base driving modules and terminal arc-links can be indirectly but synchronously rotated by terminal driving modules. The final output torque can be integrated via serial linking and parallel cooperating by the twelve rotating modules. Therefore, four arc-link sets work cooperatively and effectively in group but bear no burden each other. The mechanism can be applied to a multi-axis composite machining center machine or a multi-time element detection measuring bed and shoulder joints or hip joints corresponding to robots.

Description

FIELD

A mechanism geometrically constituted with twelve axes can be manipulated for spherical coordinate kinematics. The invention can be applied to a multi-axis composite machining center machine or a multi-time element detection measuring bed and shoulder joints or hip joints corresponding to robots.

BACKGROUND

The invention is inherited the same twelve axes geometric configuration from our three certified patents. The first certified patent (U.S. Pat. No. 8,579,714B2), the second certified patents (U.S. Pat. No. 9,579,786B2, EP2863102, CN104511904A, 2014-196071) and the third certified patents (U.S. Pat. No. 9,851,045B2, EP3196532, CN107030682A, 2017-005465).

An important issue is how to make a twelve axes mechanism operate smoothly without mutual interference and/or singularity while contemplating practical design and regulating geometric limitation. Therefore, the invention is directed to a new approach regarding to interference and singularity avoidance in comparing to our first certified patent. One of the two geometric tetrahedron frames which were ever specified by our two certified patents are decoupled and reconstructed as two separated terminal frames which are constituted by two individual geometric arcs. The other one of the two geometric tetrahedron frames without changing its original geometric definition.

To compare significantly difference with the third certified patents, new features in this invention are emphasized: adding timing belts, pulleys, hollow shafts, and spur gears onto four arc-link sets. Via these transmission components, base arc-links can be indirectly but synchronously rotated by base driving modules and terminal arc-links can be indirectly but synchronously rotated by terminal driving modules. The final output torque can be integrated via serial linking and parallel cooperating by the twelve rotating modules. Therefore, four arc-link sets work cooperatively and effectively in group but bear no burden on each other. New figures are particularly prepared in this invention, shown as FIG. 3C, FIG. 4C, FIG. 5C, and FIG. 6C.

The above and other objects, features and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following detailed description taken with the accompanying drawings.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The invention is a mechanism which can be manipulated for spherical coordinate kinematics and geometrically constituted by twelve axes. The mechanism comprises a base frame set, two terminal frame sets, four arc-link sets, at least one base driver sets, at least one terminal driver sets and at most two crank sets.

The base frame set comprises a base frame 0c including a plurality of brackets and four base rotating module 0a installed into the base frame 0c the base frame 0c is configured with four vertexes which can be used to constitute a base geometrical tetrahedron, each axis of base rotating module 0a, denoted by unit vector U_i, wherein i=1-4, is individually coincided with a vertex-to-center line of the base geometrical tetrahedron, and these four vertex-to-center lines are coincided with the center of the base frame 0a. An angle between any two vertex-to-center lines of the base geometrical tetrahedron is geometrically represented as Λ_ij=ArcCos(U_i·U_j), wherein i≠j. The angle between any two vertex-to-center lines of the base geometrical tetrahedron is greater than 75° and less than 150°, i.e.: 75°<Λ_ij<150°. The geometric definition of base frame set is shown as FIG. 1A, FIG. 2A, FIG. 3A, and FIG. 4A.

According to our first certified patent, if the base frame 0c is geometrically defined as a regular tetrahedron, the regular tetrahedron frame may be easily designed and simulated due to its simple and symmetry. Thus, six angles defined by each pair of vertex-to-center lines of the base frame 0c are equal, approximately 109.5°, i.e.: Λ₁₂=Λ₁₃=Λ₁₄=Λ₂₃=Λ₂₄=Λ₃₄≈109.5°.

But the regular tetrahedron is a configuration most likely to have singularities. This characteristic was clearly introduced and specifically analyzed in our first certified patent. For the sake of avoiding singularities, it is preferred that the base frame 0c is not defined as a regular tetrahedron.

Each base rotating module 0a comprises an outer hollow shaft 0a1 and an inner hollow shaft 0a2. Both ends of the outer hollow shaft 0a1 are indicated as active end and passive end. Both ends of the inner hollow shaft 0a2 are indicated as active end and passive end. The outer hollow shaft 0a1 being pivotally rotated with the inner hollow shaft 0a2.

In the two terminal frame sets, each terminal frame set comprises a terminal frame 4c and two terminal rotating modules 4a installed into the terminal frame 4c, the terminal frame is geometrically defined by two vertexes which can be used to constitute a terminal geometrical arc, each axis of terminal rotating module 4a is individually coincided with a vertex-to-center line of the terminal geometrical arc, and these two vertex-to-center lines are coincided with the center of the base frame for concentrically rotating the terminal frame along specified geometric orbit. The radius of the base frame's geometric orbit is denoted by r₀, shown as FIG. 1A, and FIG. 2A. The radius of the terminal frame's geometric orbit is denoted by r₄ shown as FIG. 7A, and FIG. 8A.

The two vertex-to-center lines of the first terminal geometrical arc are individually denoted by unit vector V₁ and V₂. An angle between the two vertex-to-center lines is geometrically represented as λ₁₂=ArcCos(V₁·V₂). The two vertex-to-center lines of the second terminal geometrical arc are individually denoted by unit vector V₃ and V₄. An angle between the two vertex-to-center lines is geometrically represented as λ₃₄=ArcCos(V₃·V₄). The angle between the two vertex-to-center lines of the terminal geometrical arc is greater than 75° and less than 150°, i.e.: 75°<λ₁₂<150° and 75°<λ₃₄<150°. The geometrical definitions of terminal frame are shown in FIG. 5A, FIG. 6A, FIG. 7A, and FIG. 8A.

In the two terminal frame sets, each terminal frame set further comprises a terminal saddle 4s which can be equipped onto the terminal frame's opposite side relative to terminal arc-links 2c for carrying a payload. The terminal saddle 4s can be functioned as a lifting mechanism having an extendable piston rod as implemented in pneumatic cylinders, hydraulic cylinders or electric actuator. Applications include a robot's shoulder joint and hip joint.

In the four arc-link sets, each arc-link set comprises a base arc-link 1c, a terminal arc-link 2c, an arc-link rotating module 2a, a base timing pulley 2p, a terminal timing pulley 2q, a timing belt 2b and at least one pair of idler pulleys 2z. Both ends of the base arc-link 1c are indicated as base end and terminal end. Both ends of the terminal arc-link 2c are indicated as base end and terminal end.

The base end of the base arc-link 1c is pivotally rotated with the base end of the terminal arc-link 2c via the arc-link rotating module 2a. The base end of the base arc-link 1c is pivotally fastened onto the passive end of the inner hollow shaft 0a2 of the base rotating module 0a. The terminal end of the terminal arc-link 2c is pivotally rotated with an axis of the terminal rotating module 4a, each axis of arc-link rotating modules 2a, denoted by unit vector W_i, wherein i=1-4, is normally directed into the center of the base frame 0c for concentrically rotating each arc-link set along specified geometric orbit between the base frame 0c and two terminal frames 4c. The radius of each base arc-link's geometric orbit is denoted by r₁. The radius of each terminal arc-link's geometric orbit is denoted by r₂.

Arc-length of a base arc-link 1c, geometrically represented by α_i=ArcCos(U_i·W_i), is defined as an angle between two axes of the base rotating module 0a and the arc-link rotating module 2a which are individually connected with the same base arc-link 1c. Arc-length of a terminal arc-link 2c, geometrically represented by β_i=ArcCos(V_i·W_i), is defined as an angle between two axes of terminal rotating module 4a and the arc-link rotating module 2a which are individually connected with the same terminal arc-link 2c.

Referring to our first certified patent, singularities avoidance and geometric limitation were clearly introduced and specifically analyzed. Sum of arc-lengths of any two of the base arc-links is greater than or equal to an angle between their corresponding vertex-to-center lines of the base geometrical tetrahedron, i.e.: Λ_ij≤α_i+α_j, wherein Sum of arc-lengths of any two of the terminal arc-links is greater than or equal to an angle between their corresponding vertex-to-center lines of the same terminal geometrical arc, i.e.: λ₁₂≤β₁+β₂ and λ₃₄≤β₃+β₄. There are total twelve axes in these four arc-link sets for pivoting with four base rotating modules 0a, four arc-link rotating modules 2a and four terminal rotating modules 4a individually, therefore the final output torque can be integrated via serial linking and parallel cooperating with the twelve rotating modules.

The invention is inherited the same twelve axes geometric configuration from our three certified patents. An important issue is how to make a twelve axes mechanism operate smoothly without mutual interference and/or singularity while contemplating practical design and regulating geometric limitation. Therefore, the invention is directed to a new approach regarding to interference and singularity avoidance in comparing to our first certified patent. After synthesizing our two certified patents and the definition just mentioned above, two orbit specifications are classified for the invention. The orbit specification I: The radius of the base frame's geometric orbit is “greater than” the radius of the terminal frame's geometric orbit, and the radius of each base arc-link's geometric orbit is “greater than” the radius of each terminal arc-link's geometric orbit, i.e.: r₀>r₁>r₂>r₄, shown as FIG. 7A-FIG. 7B. The orbit specification II: The radius of the base frame's geometric orbit is “less than” the radius of the terminal frame's geometric orbit, and the radius of each base arc-link's geometric orbit is “less than” the radius of each terminal arc-link's geometric orbit, i.e.: r₀<r₁<r₂<r₄, shown as FIG. 8A-FIG. 8B.

The base timing pulley 2p is pivotally fastened onto the active end of outer hollow shaft 0a1 of the base rotating module 0a. The terminal timing pulley 2q is pivotally fastened onto the base end of the terminal arc-link 2c. All flanges of the at least one pair of idler pulleys 2z are not able to exceed the outer flange of the base arc-link 1c. The at least one pair of idler pulleys 2z are installed onto both sides of the base arc-link 1c individually.

Both ends of the timing belt 2b are separately meshed and rotated with the base timing pulley 2p and the terminal timing pulley 2q. Direction and tension of the timing belt 2b are functionally adjusted by the at least one pair of idler pulleys 2z. The terminal timing pulley 2q is synchronously rotated via the timing belt 2b by the base timing pulley 2p. Shown as FIG. 3C, FIG. 4C, FIG. 4C, FIG. 6C.

At least one base driver sets, each base driver set comprises a base driving module 1m, a base active gear 1g and a base passive gear 1h. The base active gear 1g is fastened onto the output shaft of the base driving module 1m. The base passive gear 1h is pivotally fastened onto the passive end of the outer hollow shaft 0a1 of the base rotating module 0a.

According to pre-defined gear ratio, the base active gear 1g and the base passive gear 1h are selected to meet design requirement. The distance between the shaft bores of the base active gear 1g and the base passive gear 1h is equal to sum of reference radii of the base active gear 1g and the base passive gear 1h. The base passive gear 1h meshed with the base active gear 1g is synchronously rotated by the base driving module 1m. The distance between shaft bores of the base active gear 1g and the base passive gear 1h can be zero, if the base active gear 1g and the base passive gear 1h are not expected. The base driving module 1m is pivotally fastened onto the passive end of the outer hollow shaft 0a1 of the base rotating module 0a. Shown as FIG. 3B and FIG. 4B.

At least one terminal driver sets, each terminal driver set comprises a terminal driving module 2m, a terminal active gear 2g and a terminal passive gear 2h. The terminal active gear 2g is fastened onto the output shaft of the terminal driving module 2m. The terminal passive gear 2h is pivotally fastened onto the passive end of the inner hollow shaft 0a2 of the base rotating module 0a.

According to pre-defined gear ratio, the terminal active gear 2g and the terminal passive gear 2h are selected to meet design requirement. The distance between the shaft bores of the terminal active gear 2g and the terminal passive gear 2h is equal to sum of reference radii of the terminal active gear 2g and the terminal passive gear 2h. The terminal passive gear 2h meshed with the terminal active gear 2g is synchronously rotated by the terminal driving module 2m. The distance between shaft bores of the terminal active gear 2g and the terminal passive gear 2h can be zero, if the terminal active gear 2g and the terminal passive gear 2h are not expected. The terminal driving module 2m is pivotally fastened onto the passive end of the inner hollow shaft 0a2 of the base rotating module 0a. Shown as FIG. 5B and FIG. 6B. In the at most two crank sets, each crank set comprises an arc crank 3c and a crank rotating module 3a. An end of the arc crank 3c is mounted a rod which is concentrically extended opposite side relative to the base frame 0c, these extending lines of the extended rods are denoted by unit vector wherein i=1-2. The other end of the arc crank 3c is pivoted through an axis of base rotating module 0a and installed into the crank rotating module 3a opposite side relative to the base frame 0c, and the arc crank 3c can be concentrically rotated along a geometric orbit between terminal arc-link 2c and terminal frame 4c. The radius of each arc crank's geometric orbit is denoted by r₃. Arc-length of arc crank 3c, geometrically represented by δ_i=ArcCos(U_i·N_i), wherein i=1-2, is defined as an angle between the axis of base rotating module 0a and the extended rod mounted onto the same arc crank 3c. The arc-length of arc crank 3c is less than or equal to 90°, i.e.: δ_i≤90°, wherein i=1-2. The geometric definitions of crank set are shown as FIG. 9A-FIG. 9B and FIG. 10A-FIG. 10B.

The crank rotating module 3a can be functionally actuated for preventing predictable interference caused by terminal arc-link 2c and/or terminal frame 4c. Each crank set further comprises a crank saddle 3s which can be equipped onto the arc crank's extended rod opposite side relative to the base frame 0c for carrying the payload. The crank saddle 3s can be a clamp of a lathe to support a shaft of a laser cutter or install a drill as applied in multi-shaft composite machining centers.

The end effect arc-link assembly introduced in our second certified patent is renamed as crank set in the invention, and more especially, “at least one” end effect arc-link assemblies are improved as “at most two” crank sets. If geometrics and configurations are simply concerned, at most four crank sets are able to install in the base frame 0c. After simulating and verifying, utility and effectiveness of greater than two crank sets are worthless, because they are unavoidably interfered with base frame 0c and/or each arc-link set. Working space of two crank sets is also reduced but acceptable, because they can clamp the payload corporately and stably. Working space of one crank set is gradually increased, and oscillation and vibration are easily accompanied for a single crank hanging alone.

While our first certified patent has a greater space for orientating due to no hinder of any crank set, it is capable of directly outputting torque due to eliminating crank set. Although shortage of crank saddle 3s, payload still can be carried on equipping terminal saddles 4s. The different quantity of crank sets are separately adapted in different suitable domains, therefore, the quantity about “at most two” is adapted in the invention to replace by the quantity about “at least one” in our second certified patent. After analyzing geometrics and configurations, the sufficient and enable mode is disclosed as expected.

The base frame 0c can be either close-chain type or open-chain type, and the close-chain type is designed to enhance rigidity to avoid vibration or deformation. The open-chain type is designed for preventing predictable interference caused by arc-link sets and/or crank sets.

The base rotating module 0a can be assembled by a torque output device and/or an angle sensor and/or a bearing with an shaft. The arc-link rotating module 2a can be assembled by a torque output device and/or an angle sensor and/or a bearing with an shaft. The terminal rotating module 4a can be assembled by a torque output device and/or an angle sensor and/or a bearing with an shaft. The crank rotating module 3a can be assembled by a torque output device and/or an angle sensor and/or a bearing with an shaft.

There are six embodiments for realizing the invention. The first embodiment is the orbit specification I with single crank set, shown as FIG. 11A-FIG. 11C. The second embodiment is the orbit specification II with single crank set, shown as FIG. 12A-FIG. 12C. The third embodiment is the orbit specification I with double crank sets, shown as FIG. 13A-FIG. 13C.

The fifth embodiment is the orbit specification I without crank set, shown as FIG. 15A-FIG. 15C. The sixth embodiment is the orbit specification II without crank set, shown as FIG. 16A-FIG. 16C.

Those skilled in the art will readily observe that numerous modifications and alterations of the device and method may be made while retaining the teachings of the invention. Accordingly, the above disclosure should be construed as limited only by the metes and bounds of the appended claims.
