摘要
Kinematic couplings are statically determinant structures that are often used in precision fixturing applications because of their high repeatability. The simplicity of their design also makes the design of accurate interchangeable couplings a realistic task. This paper discusses three-groove kinematic coupling design methodologies and then describes the theory required to calculate stresses at the contact interfaces and error motions at any point on the coupling. The theory presented is incorporated into a kinematic coupling design spreadsheet (written in Microsoft Excel) that can run on a personal computer.
