Abstract
Spherical hinge as a kinematic pair is widely used in mechanical engineering, but clearance inevitably exists in it and reduces the run precision of the mechanical system. In this paper, two-mode theory of nonlinear spring-damper contact force and modified Coulomb friction model are used for creating a virtual prototype model of a kinematic pair with clearance. Drive force is calculated in 4 kinds of working conditions, 3 different sizes of clearance. Influence of the clearance on accuracy of the transmission force is discussed.
