A Mobile Robot with Modified Mecanum Wheels

Advanced Materials Research, 2014
Mobile robots applications are demanding them to move in tight areas, to avoid obstacles, finding their way to the next location. In the case of wheeled robots, these abilities mainly depend on the wheels design. A mobile robot with omni-directional capabilities is very attractive because it guarantees a very good mobility in such cases, being able to ...

Motion controller design for a mecanum wheeled mobile manipulator

2017 IEEE Conference on Control Technology and Applications (CCTA), 2017
Mobile manipulators extend the workspace of manipulators by mounting them on mobile platforms. The paper presents the design of a motion controller for a mobile manipulator. The mobile manipulator consists of a mobile platform driven by Mecanum wheels and a robotic arm with 6 degrees of freedom.

An omnidirectional mobile operating robot based on mecanum wheel

2017 2nd International Conference on Advanced Robotics and Mechatronics (ICARM), 2017
Omnidirectional mobile operating robot not only expands the working space of manipulator, but also enhances the function of the omnidirectional vehicle. So, it has wide application prospect. This paper analyses the omnidirectional movement principle of Mecanum wheel, designs an omnidirectional moving vehicle based on Mecanum wheel, and establishes its ...

Mechanics of Mobile Robots with Mecanum Wheels

2016
The mechanics of a robot with Mecanum wheels is studied. A Mecanum wheel is a wheel with rollers attached to its circumference. Each roller rotates about an axis that forms an angle with the plane of the disk. In robotics, a simplified approach, in which the equations of non-holonomic kinematic constraints are solved approximately by means of a pseudo ...

Dynamics of Mechanical Systems with Mecanum Wheels

2014
The kinematics and dynamics of a mechanical system with mecanum wheels is studied. A mecanum wheel is a wheel with rollers attached to its circumference. Each roller rotates about an axis that forms an angle with the plane of the disk (for the omni-wheels, the axes of the rollers lie in the plane of the wheel and in an ideal case are tangent to the ...

Navigation and Control of Mecanum Wheeled Chair for Handicaps

International Review of Mechanical Engineering (IREME), 2014
This paper proposes a novel navigational system for handicap wheeled chair with mecanum wheels. The wheels provide a flexible mobility represented with its 3DOF (Three Degrees Of Freedom) ability of mobility. The chair provides assistance for the user according to his/her medical situation.

Derivation and Simulation on the Academic Profile of the Mecanum Wheel

Advanced Materials Research, 2012
Mecanum wheel can provide a Omni-directional movement, so to design the academic profile of the Mecanum Wheel become the first problem to be solved. this paper make a projection of the Mecanum wheel to the set of planes that perpendicular to the wheel axes, Derivate the academic profile of the wheel. Use the data to build the model of the wheels.

FLOCKING OF MECANUM WHEELED ROBOT CONSENSUS

2019
This thesis applies flocking algorithms for the distributed consensus control of a multi-agent system composed of four-Mecanum-wheeled robots. The working mechanism of flocking is an artificial potential field consisting of attractive/repulsive forces and velocity alignment.

Analysis of the Mecanum wheel arrangement of an omnidirectional vehicle

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science, 2019
Mecanum wheels are widely used in omnidirectional vehicles, but their arrangements are usually arbitrarily selected. We find that the arrangement of Mecanum wheels influences the performance of an omnidirectional vehicle. The two most used arrangement modes, Type-X and Type-O, are studied.
