摘要:
A holding apparatus and a holding unit are disclosed. The holding apparatus (4) includes a base plate (21), a fixed holding member (22) fixed on the base plate, a first movable holding member (11) arranged in opposed relation to and having a face adapted to operate in collaboration with the fixed holding member for holding a workpiece, a second movable holding member (12) adapted to operate in collaboration with said face of said first movable holding member in operatively interlocked relationship therewith for holding a workpiece, and a drive device (19) for driving the first movable holding member and the second movable holding member in operatively interlocked relationship with each other. Therefore, holding power can be increased easily without a large space. The holding apparatus may further include a removing device (24,25,26) for removing the second movable holding member from between the first movable holding member and the fixed holding member when holding the workpiece (20) with the first movable holding member and the fixed holding member.
摘要:
An object taking-out apparatus for taking out objects (13) randomly stacked in a container (11) according to a condition of how each object is placed, which includes a robot hand (3) having telescopic means (32) and a coupling member (31) whose one ends are connected to a robot arm end (10), and holding means (35) coupled to their other ends. The telescopic means (32) expands and contracts to cause the holding means (35) to assume either a first orientation where a small angle (θ1) is formed or a second orientation where a large angle (θ2) is formed between a holding direction axis (A) of the holding means (35) and a rotary axis (B) of the robot arm end (10), thereby taking out objects (13) without causing interaction between the robot (1) and the container (11).
摘要:
A machining system capable of displaying operation programs and associated information for a plurality of components of the system on the same display screen for confirming, creating and editing of the operation programs and associated information. A machine tool (1), a jig device (2) for fixing/unfixing a workpiece on the machine tool (1), a handling robot (3) and a visual sensor (4) are connected with an information processing device (5) by a communication path (6). A list of items specifying operation programs and associated information for the respective components (1-4) is displayed with respect to different kinds of workpieces on a display screen of the information processing device (5). When one or more of the items are selected by an operator, the operation program or programs and the associated information specified by the selected item or items are displayed in the form of a window on the display screen. Since the operation programs and the associated information for the respective components (1-4) are displayed on the same display screen, this allows the operator to confirm, create and edit the operation programs and the associated information at one place.
摘要:
A flexible workpiece assembling method for assembling a flexible workpiece (W) with an object (60) by using a first robot (20) comprising a first hand (21) and a second robot (30) comprising a second hand (31) includes the steps of: gripping a first portion of the flexible workpiece by the first hand and gripping a second portion of the flexible workpiece different from the first portion by the second hand; moving the flexible workpiece to the object through a cooperating operation of the first and second robots; deforming the flexible workpiece into a shape corresponding to the nonflexible object by the first and second robots; and assembling the flexible workpiece onto the nonflexible object by the first and second robots. As a result, the flexible workpiece can be accurately assembled onto the nonflexible object without breaking or tearing. The first and second robots may comprise a pushing means for pushing the flexible workpiece into the object.
摘要:
A handling robot system, including a table (14) having a placement surface (12) for placing a plurality of articles (Wa,Wb); an article dispersing mechanism (16) for dispersing the articles (Wa,Wb) placed on the placement surface (12) of the table (14) across the placement surface (12); a vision sensor (18) for detecting each of the articles (Wa,Wb) dispersed on the placement surface (12) of the table (14); and a robot (20) operating, based on article detection data (Dw) from the vision sensor (18), to hold the articles (Wa,Wb) one by one.
摘要:
A handling robot system, including a table having a placement surface for placing a plurality of articles; an article dispersing mechanism for dispersing the articles placed on the placement surface of the table across the placement surface; a vision sensor for detecting each of the articles dispersed on the placement surface of the table; and a robot operating, based on article detection data from the vision sensor, to hold the articles one by one. The article dispersing mechanism includes a partition member capable of producing a relative motion in relation to the table, the partition member being disposed in proximity to the placement surface with a gap defined therebetween, to divide a space adjoining the placement surface into a first region to which the articles are brought and a second region at which the robot operates to hold the articles transferred from the first region; and a drive control section for causing the relative motion between the table and the partition member in accordance with a program describing a mode of the relative motion. A certain number of articles are dispersed, as a result of the relative motion produced under the control of the drive control section, to permit the articles to pass through the gap on the placement surface, and are transferred from the first region to the second region.
