    Velocity-Level Kinematics of a Continuously Variable Transmission System for Phri
    (Springer International Publishing AG, 2025) Mobedi, Emir; Dede, Mehmet Ismet Can
    New generation robots pave the way for physical human-robot interaction (pHRI) through improvements in control and design techniques. While the former is achieved with the help of a number of sensory information, variable stiffness actuators (VSA) are exploited for the design of these robots to achieve inherent compliance. Recently, continuously variable transmission-based VSA has been developed to be used for pHRI, specifically for haptics. The fundamental characteristic of this new CVT mechanism is that it regulates output position and torque independently via the sphere transmission element. In this study, velocity-level kinematics of this new CVT system is carried out to demonstrate its step-less speed variation feature. Moreover, simulations are conducted in ADAMS and Solidworks software packages at 8 transmission points selected unequally. Results show that the average value of overall ADAMS and Solidworks errors computed with respect to the computed velocity are reported as 1.09%, and 0.53%, respectively.

    A Continuously Variable Transmission System Designed for Human–robot Interfaces
    (Springer, 2021) Mobedi, Emir; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can
    Within a predefined limit, continuously variable transmission (CVT) systems can continuously vary the power transmission ratio. The transmission in CVTs is achieved via friction, belt or gear systems. If CVT designs can incorporate backdrivability, independent output position and impedance variation, shock absorbtion, and low mass and inertia, they can be employed in human–robot interfaces. Among various types of CVT designs, the two-cone drive CVT designs have a major drawback since the output torque and position cannot be changed independent of each other. The friction wheel used in this design does not have a holonomic motion capability and causes this inconvenience. In order to overcome this problem, a sphere is used in this work for the CVT design as the transmission element. In addition, it is stated in the literature that common CVT drive systems do not have the capability to be used in cyclic bidirectional motion. In the presented CVT design, a second sphere is added to the system with two springs from the lower part of the cones for pretension in order to solve the bidirectional transmission problem. In this paper, the working principle and conceptual design details of the novel two-cone CVT drive are presented. Experimental results showed that the novel CVT has the capacity to transmit bidirectional power with some accuracy. © 2021, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

    Calibration Study of a Continuously Variable Transmission System Designed for Phri
    (Springer, 2020) Mobedi, Emir; Dede, Mehmet Ismet Can
    Variable stiffness actuators (VSAs) have been used in many applications of physical human-robot interfaces (pHRI). A commonly employed design is the spring-based VSA allowing the user to regulate the output force mechanically. The main design criteria of these actuation systems are the adjustment of output force independent from the output motion, and shock absorbing. In our recent work, we implemented certain modifications on the two-cone friction drive continuously variable transmission system (CVT) so that the CVT can be employed in pHRI systems. Subsequently, the optimized prototype is developed. In this study, we introduce the prototype of this new CVT systems, and its force calibration tests. The results indicate that the manufactured CVT is capable of displaying the desired output force throughout its transmission ratio range within a tolerance.
