Single-degree-of-freedom infinite turnover mechanism
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of space folding and unfolding and aerospace, in particular to a single-degree-of-freedom infinite turnover mechanism.
Background
A classic single closed-loop space 6R mechanism, namely a Bricard mechanism, can realize the functions of overturning, folding and the like, and has six rod pieces, six revolute pairs and one degree of freedom. The method is widely applied to daily life and aerospace, for example, Chinese patent CN201810223057.6 discloses a multi-stable state flexible Bricard mechanism and a stable state analysis method thereof, and a flexible mechanism is adopted to form a ring-shaped closed structure by a plurality of Bricard basic units. However, the relative rigidity of the compliant mechanism is poor, the adjacent joints of the Bricard mechanism are in different planes or have complex angles, and the processing and the manufacturing are relatively complex, so that the retaining mechanism is a rigid mechanism, two rod pieces and a rotating pair of the traditional Bricard mechanism are replaced by an anti-parallelogram unit, the space mechanism is simplified into the connection of a plane mechanism, and the mechanism has higher rigidity and is easier to process and manufacture. The obtained space mechanism is a single-degree-of-freedom infinite turnover mechanism and can be folded into a plane.
