The invention discloses a parallel mechanism having a reconfigurable characteristic. The parallel mechanism comprises a base component, first, second and third
branch chain components, lower shafts of the first, second and third
branch chains, middle shafts of the first, second and third
branch chains, a middle platform component and a
tail end platform component, wherein a bearing seat at the rear end of the lower part of the first branch chain is connected with a first base
slider bearing seat on the base component through the lower shaft of the first branch chain; the bearing seat at the front end of the lower part of the first branch chain is connected with a first middle platform bearing seat of the middle platform component through the middle shaft of the first branch chain; an end cover of the upper part of a first spherical hinge of the first branch chain component is connected with a first
tail end platform connecting part of the
tail end platform component; the second and third branch chain components are totally the same as the first branch chain component; a
bevel gear of a base rotates to drive a wing plate screw to rotate so that a rectilinearly-moving slider of the base performs rectilinear motion along linear guide rails of the base; a screw motor rotates to drive a middle rectilinearly-moving screw to rotate, so that a middle rectilinearly-moving slider can move along middle rectilinearly-moving guide rails.
