Abstract

This paper investigates a reconfigurable space manipulator's inverse kinematics (IK) with two lockable passive telescopic links (LPTLs). Depending on these LPTLs' locking state, the manipulator includes free-space and reconfiguration operation modes. Firstly, we introduce a new ball joint-based solution for the reconfigurable operation mode. Then, we propose an IK simplified method capable of significantly reducing the computational load of the complex inverse differential kinematic (IDK) equations corresponding to the two operation modes. Next, to solve the resulting simplified IDK equations efficiently, we present an IK solution method based on the closed-loop algorithm. This method is developed to resolve the redundancy at the velocity level and can generate highly accurate and smooth trajectory IK solutions that satisfy the joint limit constraints. Finally, we design two typical case studies corresponding to working scenarios of the manipulator during two operation modes. Their simulation results validate the proposed methods' effectiveness.
