Kinematic Analysis of a Serial-Parallel Hybrid Mechanism and its Application to a Wheel-Legged Robot

A three-DOF (degree-of-freedom) serial-parallel hybrid mechanism is proposed that consists of a 2-UPS+U component (UPS: universal-/prismatic-/spherical-joint chain and U: universal joint) and an R+RPS component (R: revolute joint and RPS: revolute-/prismatic-/spherical-joint chain). This mechanism c...
