Closed link Mechanism constrained by springs
Posted: 01 Aug 2018, 17:04
Hello everyone
I am trying to build a simple mechanism that consists of parallel link closed by two plates, the bottom plate and the top.
On either sides of the mechanism, a spring is used to constraint the structure and give it damping property. Two motors on top will pull on the springs to control the angle of deflection of the structure and the stiffness of bending.
Here is the image: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1LCCfD ... -Up6ChzsEr
I used the dummies to close the link of the structure, It seems to work but now I am having problems connecting the side springs to the structure as well as how to implement the motor-pulling mechanism. I've been struggling to try to solve it for many days now, Please help me in this case, What should I do to attach the springs and how can I implement the pulling mechanism?
(even when the structure is without the side springs, it wobbles as if there are springs on either side)
Here is my scene

Thank you
