Hybrid serial-parallel linkage based six degrees of freedom robotic manipulator

摘要

A hybrid robotic manipulator adapted to move objects includes a base and a waist mounted on the base. The waist is configured to rotate on the base. The hybrid robotic manipulator further includes a pair of arms mounted on the waist. Each arm includes an upper arm, a forearm serially coupled to the upper arm at an elbow, and a wrist configured to couple the pair of arms at a distal end through a pair of connecting elements. The wrist further includes an end-effector mounted thereon and configured to grip the object and move the object to a desired position.
