Abstract
Anthropomorphic mechanisms can model the human superior limb structurally and functionally. The structure of these mechanisms results from serial or parallel connection of mechanisms which model the human joints. We present in this paper a method for structural synthesis of those mechanisms. With this method both components of a joint (elastic and rigid) are considered. Also, the geometrical model for a variant with 3 d.o.f is presented.
