Design and Simulation of a Single Piezoelectric-Driven Rotary Actuator with Double-Layer Flexible Mechanism

A novel pure rotary actuator with a double-layer flexible mechanism (RA-DFM), which is driven by a single piezoelectric ceramic in the lower mechanism and generates rotational motion in the upper mechanism, is proposed in this paper. The output of piezoelectric ceramic is successively amplified usin...
