Abstract:
In order to increase the driving force of the voice coil actuator while reducing its size and mass, the structural parameters of the coil and magnet in the actuator are optimized by combing Biot-Savart law with Lagrangian interpolation. A 30 mm × 30 mm × 42 mm robot based on a 3-RPS parallel mechanism driven by voice coil actuators is designed. The Lagrangian dynamic equation of the robot is established, and the mapping relationship between the driving force and the end pose is explored. The results of dynamic analysis are simulated and verified by the ADAMS software. The mapping relationship between the input current and the end pose is concluded by taking the driving force as the intermediate variable. The robot can bear a load of 10 g. The maximum axial displacement of the robot can reach 9 mm, and the maximum pitch angle and return angle can reach 40 and 35 degrees, respectively. The robot can accomplish forward movement through vibration, and the maximum average velocity can reach 4.1 mm/s.
