Abstract
In this paper, a novel flight simulator mechanism is proposed. By using a new parallel manipulator with redundant structure, a mechanism with larger rotational motions is obtained, which makes the flight simulator more feasible to simulate more complicated flight actions. First, the flight simulator mechanism is introduced and the kinematics is studied. Then, the workspace of the mechanism is analyzed. Finally, a model of this flight simulator mechanism is simulated under the virtual environment. It shows the design can well meet the needs of flight action with large angle requirements.
