structure and the ease of control However it suffers from the need for heavy mechanical components to bear the concentrated load at the joints In other words gears or harmonic drives should be used for speed reduction and torque enhancement which leads to heavy manipulators in practice Moreover gears with high speed reduc tion ratios inevitably decrease the efficiency of a manipulator Motivated

ics and experimental results are presented Finally the conclusion fol lows in Section 4 2 Manipulator with distributed actuation 2 1 Review of distributed actuation mechanisms Generally robot manipulators are driven by joint actuation mechanisms For example a motor gear assembly is placed at the joint of two links in the case of industrial robots 29 31 In addition a hydraulic actuator is often fixed at the joint for excava tors 32 33 In contrast to the above the distributed actuation mechanism generates the torque at a joint by thrusting the sliders connected by a rigid rod along the links as shown in Fig 1 The slider is actu ated by a ball screw with a motor A typical feature of the distrib uted actuation with dual sliders is the freedom to move the several generic features of the distributed actuation mechanism needed to maximize the output torque However this issue can be mitigated by optimizing the structural parameters considering the performance specifications within the workspace 1224 S H Kim et al Mechatronics 24 2014 1223 1230 that has not been previously investigated in literature To reduce the number of actuators needed only one slider is allowed to move by fixing the other at a certain distance i e x 1 fixed from the joint as shown in Fig 2 Also the link has an angle offset i e h offset With this configuration the redundancy of the slider locations addressed in Section 2 1 cannot be sustained but the actuator location remains effectively variable In other words the torque generated at the joint varies depending on the location of the moving slider i e x 2 Furthermore by adjusting the dimen sions of x 1 fixed h 2 L rod and h offset the torque can be maintained to be actuating points so that the joint torque varies depending on their locations which is an additional degree of freedom DOF to max imize the joint torque In 24 the fingertip force of a robot finger with three joints is significantly increased by optimizing the slider locations On the other hand the increasing number of actuators is a dis advantage as the number of joints increases i e two actuators per a joint are needed for the distributed actuation For small scale applications such as the robot finger in 24 this may not be a major issue because actuators of small size are only utilized 2 2 Proposed actuation mechanism In this subsection we extend the distributed actuation mecha nism to the design of a light weight manipulator with a high pay load capacity e g exceeding 10 kg To this end we focus on Fig 1 The concept of a distributed actuation mechanism larger than the required torque for manipulating the payload over the workspace To demonstrate this using the kinematics of the mechanism let us consider the generated torque s F 2 x 1 fixed sin h h offset C0h 2 x 2 C0 x 1 fixed cos h h offset x 2 h 2 C18C19 1 where h cos C01 x 1 fixed 2 x 2 2 h 2 2 C0L 2 rod 2 x 2 1 fixed x 2 2 h 2 2 q 0 1 A tan C01 h2 x 2 C16C17 C0 h offset is the joint angle and F 2 is the thrust force of the slider in the moving link The generated torque changes through the position of the actu ation point x 2 and its profile depends on the design parameters such as L rod h 2 x 1 fixed and h offset which will be optimized in Section 3 In particular it is noted that h offset does play an important role to shift the torque profile to some extent within the workspace To illustrate it the generated torques are computed with and without the inclusion of h offset for the same other design parameters of L rod h 2 x 1 fixed as shown in Fig 3 The torque profile is shifted to the left hand side when h offset 8 C14 so that the generated torque is always larger than the required torque for manipulating the 13 kgf payload through the entire workspace of h It is noted that the required torque is calculated by considering the payload and the weight of two links of the prototype of a manipulator which will be developed in Section 3 The proposed mechanism with a single slider does not provide the redundancy of slider positions Fig 2 The joint model of the proposed robot manipulator Fig 3 The effect of angle offset h offset at joint 1 The proposed mechanism has several features different from the conventional joint actuation First the structural stiffness increases significantly because of the triangular closed loop structure featuring the connecting rod The bending moment due to the external load can be supported by the repulsive force of with the conventional speed reducers which are composed of a planetary gear and a harmonic drive having a transmission effi ciency lower than 70 the ball screw system has the efficiency of approximately95 and sothus itwouldrequireasmalleractuator while maintaining the desired output power of the manipulator This feature is also advantageous to build up a light manipulator system To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed manipulator we virtually design two different manipulators as shown in Fig 4 One is a conventional 1 DOF manipulator using the standard joint actuation mechanism JM and the other is the proposed 1 DOF manipulator with the distributed actuation mechanism DM For both cases the design targets are to achieve the payload capacity of 13 kgf at the 0 7 m outreach and an output power of about 110 W Also for DM it is assumed that L rod x 1 fixed h 2 and h offset are 230 mm 145 mm 38 mm and 8 C14 respectively which are also the parameters used for the hardware design in Section 3 The detailed descriptions are summarized in Table 1 The motor the speed reducer composedof a harmonicdrive and a planetarygear and a ball screw are all selected among commercially available components to have the similar outputs at the joint i e the joint torque and speed The designs may not be optimal but best in the trial and error approach First a larger motor is adopted for JM because the efficiency of the harmonic drive is low as about 70 On the other hand in the case of DM the efficiency of ball screw is about 95 so that a smaller and lighter motor can be utilized Moreover the ball screw is much lighter than that of the speed Fig 4 The virtual design of 1 DOF

addition different from JM the deflection caused by ball screw is almost negligible because the stiffness of ball screw is significantly high Therefore despite the light weight of the robot the

to the load of a 13 kg mass the maximum deflections at the joint of JM and DM are 1273lrad and 444lrad respectively This clearly shows that DM has higher positional accuracy at the end tip under loads Also the high joint stiffness results in then high natural frequency which avoids the undesirable structural vibration which may be caused during the manipulation of pay loads Using that from 34 35 f

natural frequencies of DM and JM are 2 1 kHz and 1 2 kHz respectively It is known that the low natural frequency of the manipulator may cause the residual vibration and degrades the position control

weight and the tolerable deflection of the parts A large x 1 fixed increases the generated torque However there is a trade off between increases in the weight and the bending deflection Simi larly a large h 2 also increases the generated torque but it exacer bates the structural bending and interferes the workspace Thus the samples of design parameters x 1 fixed i h 2 j are determined by

DSP TMS320F28335 Texas Instruments Inc is used to control the position of each slider and a PD control with a 1 kHz sampling rate is applied The experimental setup is shown in Fig 7 The lifting task for a 13 kgf payload is conducted joint 2 c tracking error of h 1 d tracking error of h 2 e control input of joint 1 and at an extreme bound of the workspace To this end the trajectory was chosen to handle the payload at the maximum extension of the manipulator A 5 th order polynomial was used for shaping the trajectory in the x y plane The via points are shown in Table 3 Ini tially the manipulator stops with no load t 0 3 0 s Then a 13 0 kgf is applied to the manipulator as the end tip moves upward t 3 0 13 0 s Finally the end tip moves downward t 13 0 23 0 s and the manipulator
