Flexure hinge-based compliant mechanisms offer a high-precise and large-stroke guidance motion with straight-line or path deviations in the single-micrometer range if they are …

Flexure hinges and torsion suspensions are devices which connect or transmit load between two components while allowing limited relative movement between them by deflecting elastically. …

Abstract: This paper develops a novel revolute flexure hinge consisting of helical spring-like structures. Thanks to the excellent deformation capability and geometric constraints of the …

This article presents the comparison of various compliance/stiffness equations of circular flexure hinges with FEA results. The limitation these equations at different t/R (R is the radius and. is …

Ideal for ultra-precision motion of small stroke with fine resolution; the flexure hinge uses the elasticity for motion generation, thus very high precise motion can be obtained up to angstrom …

Jan 1, 2019 · Compliances of six left-half conic-section flexure segments are formulated. This paper presents a generalized analytical compliance model that can quickly formulate the …

May 17, 2016 · This paper designs and analyzes a new kind of flexure hinge obtained by using a topology optimization approach, namely, a quasi-V-shaped flexure hinge (QVFH). Flexure …

Jun 13, 2022 · Intending to develop a flexure hinge with a large rotation range and high accuracy, this study proposes a novel flexure hinge along with an additive manufacturable spiral …

The optimum hinge has 19% higher bending compliance than the conventional circular notched hinge, and produces 67% higher deflection angle than the rectangular notched hinge. Key …

Two flexure hinge types are optimized for high support stiffness and high first unwanted eigenfrequency for two different working ranges, ±5.7° and ±20°. We show how multiple …
