The multiple degree of freedom guide according to the present application includes two of the multiple degree of freedom guide mechanisms M described above, and is capable of providing at least three translational degrees of freedom in the first direction x, the second direction y, and the third direction z, and at least two rotational degrees of freedom among three rotational degrees of freedom about a rotational axis parallel to the first direction x, about a rotational axis parallel to the second direction y, and about a rotational axis parallel to the third direction z.
First, referring to fig. 1 to 15, a multi-degree-of-freedom guide mechanism M according to the present application is described.
(First embodiment of Multi-degree-of-freedom guide mechanism M)
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, a first embodiment of a multiple degree of freedom guiding mechanism M according to the present application is described.
The multiple degree of freedom guide mechanism M includes a base guide B, a termination E, and two differential assemblies a.
The two differential assemblies a are connected to the terminal E and the base guide B at one end of the terminal E, respectively. The base guide B provides a guide means (e.g. a rail) for the differential assembly a arranged in the first direction x. By driving the differential assembly a in the first direction x, translational movement of the termination E in the first direction x, the second direction y and the third direction z and rotation about an axis of rotation parallel to the third direction z can be achieved.
Specifically, each differential assembly a includes two primary moving members 10 (primary first moving member 11 and primary second moving member 12, respectively) and one secondary moving member 20. The primary moving member 10 connects the base guide member B and the secondary moving member 20, and by driving the two primary moving members 10 in the first direction x, translation of the secondary moving member 20 in the first direction x and the second direction y can be achieved.
The primary first movable member 11 is formed with a primary first guide member 11g, and the primary second movable member 12 is formed with a primary second guide member 12g. The secondary moving member 20 is formed with a secondary first mating member 20a and a secondary second mating member 20b. The second stage first engaging piece 20a can reciprocate in the third guide direction D3 along the first stage first guide piece 11g, the second stage second engaging piece 20b can reciprocate in the fourth guide direction D4 along the first stage second guide piece 12g, the third guide direction D3 and the fourth guide direction D4 are not parallel to each other and also are not parallel to the first direction x, and furthermore, at least one of the third guide direction D3 and the fourth guide direction D4 is not parallel to the second direction y.
The primary first guide 11g and the primary second guide 12g may be, for example, guide rails or guide rods, or may be a slider; correspondingly, the second-stage first mating piece 20a and the second-stage second mating piece 20b may be, for example, a slider, a guide rail, or a guide rod.
The secondary mover 20 is formed with a terminal guide at a portion connected to the terminal E. For convenience of description, the terminal guides formed by the two secondary moving members 20 are referred to as a terminal first guide Eg1 and a terminal second guide Eg2, respectively.
The terminal E includes a first terminal E1, a second terminal E2, and a third terminal E3. The first and second terminals E1 and E2 are rotatably connected to the third terminal E3, respectively. In this embodiment, the rotation axes of the rotational connection are all parallel to the third direction z. The arrow ω in fig. 1 shows the rotation direction.
The first terminal E1 is formed with a terminal first fitting Em1 connected to the terminal first guide Eg1, and the second terminal E2 is formed with a terminal second fitting Em2 connected to the terminal second guide Eg 2.
The terminal first fitting Em1 can reciprocate in the first guide direction D1 under the guide of the terminal first guide Eg1, and the terminal second fitting Em2 can reciprocate in the second guide direction D2 under the guide of the terminal second guide Eg2, and the first and second guide directions D1 and D2 are not parallel to each other and also not parallel to the third direction z.
Alternatively, the plane parallel to the first and second guiding directions D1 and D2 is perpendicular to the xoy plane.
The terminal first guide Eg1 and the terminal second guide Eg2 may be, for example, guide rails or guide rods, or may be sliders; correspondingly, the first end engagement element Em1 and the second end engagement element Em2 may be, for example, a slider or a guide rail or a guide rod. As another example, the terminal first guides Eg1 and the terminal first mating members Em1 (or the terminal second guides Eg2 and the terminal second mating members Em 2) may be paired crossed roller guides.
The first guide direction D1 and the second guide direction D2 may be straight or curved.
Thus, by driving at least three (preferably four) of the four primary moving members 10 in the first direction x, the translation of the third terminal member E3 in the first direction x, the second direction y and the third direction z and the rotation about the rotation axis parallel to the third direction z can be controlled.
(Second embodiment of Multi-degree-of-freedom guide mechanism M)
A second embodiment of the multi-degree of freedom guide mechanism M according to the present application is described below with reference to fig. 3. The second embodiment is a modification of the first embodiment, the same reference numerals are given to the same or similar components as those in the first embodiment in terms of structure or function, and detailed description of these components is omitted.
In comparison with the first embodiment, in the present embodiment, the rotational connecting structure of the multiple degree of freedom guide mechanism M is disposed closer to the base guide B than the terminal E, or, in other words, the entire terminal E itself does not include a portion that can rotate relatively, but two rotational connecting structures are disposed within the differential assembly a.
In this embodiment, each differential assembly a includes a differential member first portion A1 and a differential member second portion A2 that are rotatable relative to each other. The terminal guides (terminal first guides Eg1 or terminal second guides Eg 2) are formed in the differential element first portion A1, and the secondary first mating members 20a and the secondary second mating members 20b are formed in the differential element second portion A2.
(Third embodiment of Multi-degree-of-freedom guide mechanism M)

The third embodiment is a modification of the first embodiment, the same reference numerals are given to the same or similar components as those in the first embodiment in terms of structure or function, and detailed description of these components is omitted.

It should be understood that the specific shape of the third terminal E3 is not limited in the present application, and for example, in the present embodiment, the third terminal E3 may be formed in a bent plate shape in order to facilitate connection of the third terminal E3 with the first terminal E1 and the second terminal E2.
Alternatively, in order to make the terminal E have a relatively stable structure, the connection positions of the third terminal E3 with the first terminal E1 and the second terminal E2 may be located at both ends of the third terminal E3 in the second direction y, respectively.
(Fourth embodiment of Multi-degree-of-freedom guide mechanism M)

The fourth embodiment is a modification of the second embodiment, the same reference numerals are given to the same or similar components as those in the second embodiment in terms of structure or function, and detailed description of these components is omitted.
In the present embodiment, the rotational axis of the differential element first portion A1 with respect to the differential element second portion A2 is parallel to the second direction y, so that the terminal element E has translational degrees of freedom in the first direction x, the second direction y, and the third direction z, and rotational degrees of freedom about a rotational axis parallel to the second direction y.
(Fifth to eighth embodiments of the multiple freedom guide mechanism M)
A fifth embodiment of the multiple degree of freedom guide mechanism M according to the present application is described with reference to fig. 7. The fifth embodiment is a modification of the first embodiment.
In the first embodiment, the four primary moving members 10 in the two differential assemblies a each move under the guide of the same base guide B. In the present embodiment, the primary moving members 10 belonging to the two differential assemblies a are respectively moved under the guidance of two different base guides B.
Optionally, two base guides B are arranged at a distance from each other in the second direction y and/or two base guides B are arranged at a distance from each other in the third direction z.
Alternatively, the guiding directions of the two base guides B are parallel to each other.
The arrangement makes the multi-degree-of-freedom guiding mechanism M occupy smaller volume in the first direction x, or in the same space, the multi-degree-of-freedom guiding mechanism M has larger movable space in the first direction x.
Similarly, the sixth to eighth embodiments of the multiple degree of freedom guide mechanism M described below each modify the arrangement of the differential assembly a on the base guide B in the previous embodiments.
Fig. 8 shows a sixth embodiment of the multiple degree of freedom guide mechanism M, which is a modification of the second embodiment.
Fig. 9 and 10 show a seventh embodiment of the multi-degree-of-freedom guide mechanism M, which is a modification of the third embodiment. In addition to the different arrangement of the base guides B, in this embodiment the axes of rotation of the first and second end pieces E1, E2 relative to the third end piece E3 are parallel to the first direction x, so that the third end piece E3 has a translational degree of freedom in the first, second and third directions x, y and z and a rotational degree of freedom about an axis of rotation parallel to the first direction x.
Fig. 11 and 12 show an eighth embodiment of the multi-degree-of-freedom guide mechanism M, which is a modification of the fourth embodiment. In addition to the different arrangement of the basic guides B, in this embodiment the rotational axis of the differential element first part A1 relative to the differential element second part A2 is parallel to the first direction x, so that the termination E has translational degrees of freedom in the first direction x, the second direction y and the third direction z and rotational degrees of freedom about the rotational axis parallel to the first direction x.
(Ninth embodiment of Multi-degree-of-freedom guide mechanism M)
A ninth embodiment of the multiple degree of freedom guide mechanism M according to the present application is described below with reference to fig. 13 to 15.

Alternatively, in the present embodiment, the primary moving members 10 belonging to the two differential assemblies a are respectively moved under the guidance of two different base guides B, and the terminal member E is sandwiched between the two base guides B.
It should be understood that in other possible embodiments, all four primary movers 10 of two differential assemblies a can also move on the same base guide B.
Next, referring to fig. 16 to 18, a multi-degree-of-freedom guide formed by the multi-degree-of-freedom guide mechanism M described above will be described.
(First embodiment of Multi-degree-of-freedom guide device)
A first embodiment of the multiple degree of freedom guide according to the application is described with reference to fig. 16.
The multiple degree of freedom guide device includes two multiple degree of freedom guide mechanisms M according to the present application (in this embodiment, the ninth embodiment of the multiple degree of freedom guide mechanism M is embodied), and includes one bridge assembly C. The two multi-degree-of-freedom guide mechanisms M are disposed at a distance in the second direction y.
The bridge assembly C is rotatably connected to the two terminals E of the two multi-degree-of-freedom guide mechanisms M. At each rotational connection, the bridge assembly C can be rotated about two axes of rotation which are not parallel to one another with respect to the terminal element E connected thereto, the arrows ω1 and ω2 in the figure respectively showing two directions of rotation.
Alternatively, the two axes of rotation that are not parallel to each other are perpendicular to each other.
Alternatively, the four base guides B in the present embodiment are fixed to the same stage.
The bridge assembly of the multiple degree of freedom guide according to the present embodiment has three translational degrees of freedom in the first direction x, the second direction y, and the third direction z, and rotational degrees of freedom about an axis of rotation parallel to the first direction x and about an axis of rotation parallel to the third direction z.
(Second embodiment of Multi-degree-of-freedom guide device)
Fig. 17 shows a second embodiment of a multiple degree of freedom guide according to the application.
In the present embodiment, each multiple degree of freedom guide mechanism M uses one base guide B, and two base guides B are disposed at a spacing in the second direction y.
(Third embodiment of Multi-degree-of-freedom guide device)
Fig. 18 shows a third embodiment of a multiple degree of freedom guide according to the application.
In the present embodiment, the same base guide B is used for the two multi-degree-of-freedom guide mechanisms M.
The two multiple degree of freedom guides M at least partially overlap in the first direction x and the terminations E of the multiple degree of freedom guides M are spaced apart in the second direction y.
Alternatively, as shown, two differential assemblies a belonging to one multiple degree of freedom guiding mechanism M enclose two differential assemblies a belonging to the other multiple degree of freedom guiding mechanism M, or in other words, in the first direction x, two differential assemblies a belonging to one multiple degree of freedom guiding mechanism M are respectively located at two sides of two differential assemblies a belonging to the other multiple degree of freedom guiding mechanism M. The arrangement mode enables the layout of the multi-degree-of-freedom guiding device in the first direction x to be compact, and the occupied space is small.
It should be understood that the two multiple degree of freedom guiding mechanisms M at least partially overlap in the first direction x is not limited to one multiple degree of freedom guiding mechanism M being sandwiched between the other multiple degree of freedom guiding mechanisms M, but may be in a form in which both are staggered with each other.
It should be appreciated that the embodiments of the multiple degree of freedom guide mechanism M described above, as well as the embodiments of the multiple degree of freedom guide device and portions of aspects or features thereof, may be suitably combined. For example, in the case where the multi-degree-of-freedom guide mechanism M in the multi-degree-of-freedom guide apparatus uses the aforementioned first to eighth embodiments, the bridge assembly C may also have a third degree of freedom of rotation, that is, the bridge assembly C has three degrees of translational freedom and three degrees of rotational freedom.
