The axis of the rotating pair III R 14 , the axis of the rotating pair VI R 24 and the axis of the rotating pair VII R 15 are perpendicular to each other; Thus, a hybrid branch chain I containing 2 prismatic pairs and 7 rotating pairs is obtained.

The end member of the hybrid branch chain I is the connection between the moving platform 1 and the rotating pair VII R 15 ;

[0058] The hybrid branch chain II is composed of branch chain III, branch chain IV and a sub-chain.

The end member of the hybrid branch chain two Ⅱ can generate three-dimensional movement and one-dimensional rotation about the axis of revolute pair thirteen R 36 . The end member of the hybrid branch chain two Ⅱ is the connection part of the moving platform 1 and revolute pair thirteen R 36 ;

[0060] In some examples, the moving pair one P 11 , the moving pair two P 21 , the moving pair three P 31 and the moving pair four P 41 are driving pairs. When the four moving pairs on the static platform 0 are taken as driving pairs, the moving platform 1 can achieve the output motion of three-dimensional spatial movement and one-dimensional rotation around the axis of the rotating pair seven R 15 axis;

[0061] This three-translation and one-rotation manipulator contains two basic kinematic chains, namely the hybrid branch chain one I and the hybrid branch chain two II, which are SKC1(0) and SKC2(1, -1) respectively. Therefore, the coupling degree k of this three-translation and one-rotation manipulator is 1.

[0067] The rotation of the moving platform 1 about the Z-axis direction is determined by the input of the first translational pair P on the static platform 0, 11 the input of the second translational pair P, 21 the input of the third translational pair P, 31 the input of the fourth translational pair P, 41 and the input of the fourth translational pair P together, thus having good input-output motion decoupling;

[0068] It should be noted that, compared with Embodiment 1, the three-translation and one-rotation manipulator in this embodiment has good torsional stiffness.

[0069] The three-translation and one-rotation manipulator with positive position solution and motion decoupling has its first branch chain, second branch chain and second hybrid branch chain independently controlling the three-dimensional movement of the moving platform. At the same time, the first branch chain, second branch chain and second hybrid branch chain can also jointly control the one-dimensional rotation of the moving platform, thus having excellent performance of positive solution and motion decoupling, which is beneficial to the motion control and trajectory planning of the moving platform 1; it is convenient to design and manufacture only composed of rotational pairs and translational pairs. There is not easy interference between the first hybrid branch chain I and the second hybrid branch chain II, and it has obvious advantages such as strong rotational ability of the moving platform 1 and large three-dimensional position working space, and can be used in the logistics field to realize the grasping and placing process, automatic conveying, transfer and unloading of three-dimensional translation and rotation.
