Abstract
A parallel robot includes a base, a movable platform, a plurality of control arms, a rotation arm, a plurality of first actuators, and a second actuator. The control arms rotatably interconnect to the base and the movable platform, respectively. Opposite ends of the rotation arm are universally rotatably connected to the base and the movable platform, respectively. The first actuators move the control arms, respectively. The second actuator rotates the rotation arm around a central axis. Each control arm comprises a first transmission member and a transmission cable. The first transmission member comprises a fan-shaped transmission portion. Each first actuator comprises a transmission shaft to engage the first transmission member of the control arm. The transmission cable coils around the transmission shaft for at least one winding, then criss-crosses, and winds on the fan-shaped transmission portion.
