Popis: During chest compressions action, in CPR (CPR), the 2 arms of the rescuer constitute a parallel mechanism. Inspired by this performance, during this study a specific family of lower mobility parallel manipulators by employing a modified version of Delta robot is proposed for chest compressions in rescuing a patient. One of the biggest differences between this mechanism and the Delta parallel mechanism is that the position of the three active connections of the robot relative to each other has changed the geometry of the platforms. Also, it shapes the asymmetrical structure within the robot mechanism and its workspace. Another difference is due to the architectural optimization method considering the mixed performance index, which has been used during this mechanism to achieve a much better compromise between the manipulator dexterity and its workspace. Within the present paper, after introducing the architecture of the robot, a closed-form solution is developed for the kinematic problem and therefore the results are verified using MSC. Adams©. Then Jacobian matrix is generated to gauge the singularity problem of the proposed mechanism. then, the workspace of the robot is investigated and compared with the original Delta mechanism.
