Here, a new type of floating base multi-robot coordinated parallel lifting system was proposed, it was composed of 3 floating robots and a flexible cable parallel system. Taking this system as the study object, the kinematic model of the whole system was established using D-H transformation and homogeneous transformation matrix. According to the theory of fluid dynamics, the vertical dynamic equation of floating base was established. According to different lifting system configurations, dynamic models of the lifting system were established using Lagrange equation. Introducing the idea of numerical analysis, a new model was proposed to describe the bidirectional dynamic coupling caused by load motion and floating base motion. Combined with an actual example, vertical dynamic responses of the whole system under different coupling conditions were analyzed contrastively using the method of numerical simulation. It was shown that the conclusions obtained here can be used for further theoretical study and prototype development, and also for dynamic response study of lifting systems of crane ship.
