Abstract: A pneumatic driven two-axis motion platform is structurally simple for using two bag-shaped telescopic modules spaced apart and fixed to a foundation base being laid on the ground, and a movable table having a pivotal shaft used for making a pivotal connection with a two-way orthogonal rotator, after completely assembled, the movable table is mounted on the two bag-shaped telescopic modules by such arrangement that the two bag-shaped telescopic modules are symmetrical against the pivotal shaft of the movable table, and the two-way orthogonal rotator is arranged together with the two bag-shaped telescopic modules as an isosceles triangle arrangement; by such structural arrangement, said two-axis motion platform is endowed with two dimensions of rotational freedom when pneumatic inflating or deflating one or both of the two bag-shaped telescopic modules.

Abstract: A motion platform having decoupled two axes adopts four modularized pneumatic bellows configured in an orthogonal arrangement. The pneumatic bellows can be independently controlled to cause the motion platform to be operated in one rotational degree of freedom with a frontward-and-backward swinging or a leftward-and-rightward swinging; or the pneumatic bellows can be synchronously controlled to cause the motion platform operated in two rotational degrees of freedom without being interfered with each other. Thus, the motion platform of the present disclosure is characterized with advantages of simplified mechanism, fewer components, convenient maintenance and reduced cost.
