A Generalized Symbolic Notation for Mechanisms

Abstract
Revisions of the Denavit-Hartenberg symbolic notation are proposed which extend its use to the entire domain of rigid link mechanisms. The extended notation provides a clear separation of the pair variables and the invariant parameters of a mechanism and thus provides a framework in which higher pairs can be systematically modeled. The new symbolism can be used directly with the existing matrix methods of kinematic analysis, and a numerical scheme is presented to reduce the task of data collection for these methods.
