Popis: In order to increase wosrkspace and carrying capacity of leg mechanism and improve popularity and adaptability of leg mechanism, a novel mechanism is proposed which has three branches of 6-DOF, which used 3-UPS parallel mechanism as the prototype of the mechanism. The static performance of the leg mechanism is analyzed and the structure parameters are designed. First, the static transmission equation of the leg mechanism is established by using the principle of virtual works which simplifies the calculation process of the leg mechanism. Further, the static performance evaluation index and the global torque performance evaluation index are defined, and the performance atlas of the static performance evaluation index is plotted at the work spaces of the leg mechanism. Moreover, by using of the space model theory, the structural dimensions parameters are optimized of the leg mechanism. Finally, using a set of optimal structural dimensions parameters and the virtual prototype of leg mechanism is designed. The research provides a theoretical basis for further investigation on leg mechanism.
