Abstract

The mathematical model for kinetostatic analysis of Jansen’s type walking mechanism is presented in this paper. This mechanism will be implemented in the structure of a walking robot. Simulation results from CAD programs are also presented for validation of the mathematical model and for analyzing the 3D model of the mechanism. From a structural point of view the investigated mechanism consists in eight bar elements connected through revolute joints. The shape of the leg mechanism described is similar with the original one proposed by Theo Jansen.
