Abstract

This paper illustrates the design of a new low-cost and easy operation I d.o.f. finger prototype, which can be used as a module for an anthropomorphic hand. Particular attention has been addressed to the design of an articulated finger mechanism, which transmits the power from the input shaft to the phalanges of a finger. The design of this I d.o.f. articulated mechanism has been achieved by analyzing the human cylindrical grasp in order to find out suitable dimensions and values for transmission ratios between phalanges for a human like grasping motion of fingers. Experimental tests have been carried out on human hands and built prototype of anthropomorphic finger. The experimental results show the practica! feasibility of the prototype as module for a three finger robotic hand.
