Abstract The traditional pseudo-rigid-body model (PRBM) has one degree of freedom (DOF) and performs a good simulation to the tip locus of flexible links for compliant mechanisms on the basis of a parametric approximation method. In this study, a new approach of a two-DOF PRBM is proposed to simulate both the tip locus and tip deflection angle of large-deflection links for compliant mechanisms on the basis of the angular deflection approximation technique. A linear regression for the spring stiffness coefficient of the 2R PRBM using the optimization technique is presented. The advantage of the new model is well illustrated through a numerical comparison between the 1R and the 2R PRBM.
