Abstract :
Two kinds of layout model of lever-type flexure hinge amplifying mechanism are presented. Then the forces of flexure hinge in the two layouts are discussed in detail and the displacement losses are calculated. Finally, the displacement losses and the amplifying factors of flexure hinge amplifying mechanism are analyzed by using the finite element software ANSYS. The analytic results demonstrate that the theoretical results are agreement with the finite element analytic results well and that the amplifying performance of layout A is better than that of layout B.
