Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to force feedback equipment technical field, especially a series force feedback equipment. BACKGROUND

[0002] Force feedback equipment has an important position in the field of human-computer interaction, which can reflect the contact force suffered by the user in the virtual environment of the host computer through the force feedback equipment, giving the user a sense of being in the scene. There are generally two types of force feedback equipment on the market: parallel and series. First, parallel force feedback equipment adopts a design way of parallel connection of multiple actuators to build an end moving platform, which makes the parallel force feedback equipment have higher stiffness and stability compared with the series force feedback equipment, which means that the parallel force feedback equipment can withstand greater load and force output. Second, the series force feedback equipment adopts a design way of series connection of multiple actuators to build an end moving platform, which makes the series force feedback equipment have a larger movement space and a smaller body compared with the parallel force feedback equipment.

[0003] Regarding the series force feedback equipment, Chinese patent CN102320040B discloses a 6-DOF force feedback device with gravity compensation. The device belongs to a 6-DOF series force feedback mechanical arm. In order to compensate for the gravity of the large arm, a counterweight block is added at the tail of the base, which can slide along the guide rail. The large arm of the device adopts a lever principle gravity compensation method, so it increases the volume and mass of the device to some extent. Chinese patent CN113669425A discloses a rehabilitation exercise equipment and a rope transmission device. The device has position detection mechanisms in three directions and attitude detection mechanisms in three directions. The device adopts a parallelogram four-bar mechanism for transmission at the large arm, which increases the overall volume of the device.

[0004] Therefore, the series force feedback equipment in the prior art sets a counterweight block to compensate for the gravity of the large arm, which increases the overall volume of the device. In addition, the small arm is not compensated for gravity, which affects the feedback accuracy of the force feedback equipment. In addition, the execution handle at the end of the execution mechanism is generally fixed and cannot be detached, which limits the use scene and is not conducive to replacing the execution handle according to the use scene.
