RESUMO

This research studies hyper-redundant robots focusing on the kinematics analysis. A hyper-redundant robot was developed based on modules of parallel architecture and binary actuators. Each module has three degrees-of-freedom, two rotational degrees of freedom with perpendicular axis and one translational degree of freedom. After searching for parallel structures existent in the literature and analyzing the degrees of freedom of these structures, the 3-RPS architecture was selected. This architecture is composed by three legs with identical chains, each leg has a rotational joint, a translational actuated joint and a spherical joint. A computational program was developed to calculate the best modules geometry, considering the physical constrains of the spherical joint, the dimensions of the base and of the platform, and the maximum and the minimum values of the binary actuated joint. An analysis of the workspace of the hyper-redundant robot composed by three and five modules in series is performed. Since the robot has discrete actuators its workspace is also discrete, i.e., it is composed by the union of points in space. Finally, the inverse kinematics of the hiper-redundant manipulator is calculated and small errors are observed between the desired position and the real position in space reached by the efectuator.
