摘要:
A calibrating device 2 is composed of a movable portion having a degree of freedom movable in three axis directions orthogonal to each other, displacement detecting means (212, 222, and 232) for detecting displacement of said movable portion as per degree of freedom, a universal joint (25) having a three-axis rotating degree of freedom, which is attached to the tip end portion of said movable portion, a fixture (26) attached to a free end of the universal joint (25), which is capable of being easily connected to the tip end portion (16) of the wrist of the robot. The calibrating device (2) measures displacement of the wrist tip end portion (16). That is, the invention provides a comparatively simple calibrating device and a calibrating method, in which automation is easy without requiring any complicated operations, using the calibrating device.
摘要:
A calibrating device (2) is constituted of a mobile section having degrees of moving freedom in three orthogonal axial directions, displacement detecting means (212, 222 and 232) which respectively detect the displacement of the mobile section at every degree of freedom, a universal joint (25) which is attached to the front end of the mobile section and has a degree of rotational freedom around the three axes, and a jig (26) which is attached to the free end of the joint (25) and can be easily coupled with the front end section (16) of the wrist of a robot. The calibrating device (2) is used for measuring the displacement of the front end section (16) of the wrist of the robot. The present invention, therefore, provides a relatively simple calibrating device and a calibration method using the calibrating device which can be easily automated and which does not involve any complicated operation.
