N2 - In this paper, a novel over-constrained 2-RRU&RSR parallel manipulator is proposed and analyzed. This mechanism is composed of a moving platform and a base, which connected by two identical revolute-revolute-universal kinematic chains and one revolute-spherical-revolute kinematic chains. Three revolute joints, fixed on the base, are set to be actively actuated. The design process and kinematic are studied in this paper. Firstly, the configuration design and structure characteristics of the mechanism are expounded. Secondly, the kinematic problems, including the inverse and the forward position analyses, are solved analytically. Then, the reachable workspace of the mechanism is analyzed by the inverse position equations. Finally, some numerical examples and conclusions of the mechanism are pointed out.
