Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new manipulator structure to configure power-assist devices in order to protect the operator from suffering musculoskeletal disorders. The mechanical structure and the control system along with their main features are presented.Design/methodology/approach - The new structure was designed under the criterion of minimizing the torques required for handling payloads up to 75 kg as well as to configure a system to be controlled easily.Findings - A new structure based on electrical AC motors and capable of handling high payloads exerting low motor torque is provided.Originality/value - The paper describes how application of the criterion of minimizing the required torques to handle heavy payload produced a new manipulator structure. This structure is patent protected. |
