The basic concepts of screw coordinates described in Part I are applied to the numerical kinematic analysis of spatial mechanisms. The techniques are illustrated with reference to the displacement, velocity, and static-force-and-torque analysis of a general, single-degree-of-freedom spatial mechanism: a seven-link mechanism with screw pairs (H)7. By specialization the associated computer program is capable of analyzing many other single-loop spatial mechanisms. Numerical examples illustrate the results.

The method of determining the static force and torque distributions in space mechanisms by use of the 3 × 3 screw matrix is presented. Transmissivities in favor of rotation and translation, and angles of transmission in space mechanisms are defined. Transmissivities are used to show why some space mechanisms have no dead center positions. In the process, the dual equilibrium equations, one for each link, are written in dual vector form, then they are solved simultaneously for the dual force components. Explicit expressions for forces and torques in the RCCC and RSSR space mechanisms are obtained. Torque distribution in the spherical four-bar mechanism is reduced from the results for the RCCC space mechanism. The numerical example considers a symmetrical crank-rocker RSSR space mechanism, where the output torque is due to the load inertia. Variations in the input torque, output torque, mechanical advantage, and transmission angle for one cycle are given for both geometric inversions.

Permanent magnet couplings can convert a dynamic seal into a static seal, thereby greatly improving the stability of the underwater propulsion unit. In order to make full use of the tail space and improve the transmitted torque capability, a conical Halbach permanent magnet coupling (C-HPMC) is proposed in this paper. The C-HPMC combines multiple cylindrical HPMCs with different sizes into an approximately conical structure. Compared with the conical permanent magnet couplings in our previous work, the novel C-HPMC has better torque performance and is easy to process. The analytical calculation method of transmitted torque of C-HPMC is proposed on the basis of torque calculation of the three common types of HPMCs. The accuracy of the torque calculation of the three HPMCs is verified, and the torque performance of the three HPMCSs of different sizes is compared and discussed. The “optimal type selection” method is proposed and applied in the design of C-HPMC. Finally, on the basis of torque analysis calculation and axial force calculation, a complete flowchart of the design and performance analysis of C-HPMC is described.
