Detailed Description

template<class T>
class gazebo::physics::ScrewJoint< T >

A screw joint, which has both prismatic and rotational DOFs.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ScrewJoint ( BasePtr  _parent)
inlineexplicit

Constructor.

Parameters
[in]_parentParent of the joint.
virtual ~ScrewJoint ( )
inlinevirtual

Destructor.

Member Function Documentation

virtual unsigned int DOF ( ) const
inlinevirtual
virtual void FillMsg ( msgs::Joint &  _msg)
inlinevirtual
virtual double GetThreadPitch ( )
pure virtual

Get screw joint thread pitch.

Thread Pitch is defined as angular motion per linear motion or rad / m in metric. This must be implemented in a child class

Returns
_threadPitch Thread pitch value.

Implemented in BulletScrewJoint, SimbodyScrewJoint, DARTScrewJoint, and ODEScrewJoint.

virtual void Init ( )
inlineprotectedvirtual

Initialize joint.

Reimplemented in BulletScrewJoint, and DARTScrewJoint.

virtual void Load ( sdf::ElementPtr  _sdf)
inlinevirtual

Load a ScrewJoint.

Parameters
[in]_sdfSDF value to load from

Reimplemented in BulletScrewJoint, SimbodyScrewJoint, DARTScrewJoint, and ODEScrewJoint.

virtual void SetThreadPitch ( double  _threadPitch)
pure virtual

Set screw joint thread pitch.

Thread Pitch is defined as angular motion per linear motion or rad / m in metric. This must be implemented in a child class To clarify direction, these are modeling right handed threads with positive thread_pitch, i.e. the child Link is the nut (interior threads) while the parent Link is the bolt/screw (exterior threads).

Parameters
[in]_threadPitchThread pitch value.

Implemented in BulletScrewJoint, SimbodyScrewJoint, DARTScrewJoint, and ODEScrewJoint.
