In a sealant applying apparatus, a three-axis orthogonal type robot is installed at any location, and the three-axis orthogonal type robot is provided with an X axis arm, a Y axis arm and a Z axis arm. The Z axis arm has fixed thereto a reversing unit inclinable about the axis thereof. A workpiece is fixed to the reversing unit, and the surface of the workpiece to which a sealant is to be applied can be made substantially horizontal by the driving of the reversing unit. A sealant discharging apparatus is provided in such a manner that a discharge nozzle is positioned above the workpiece, and the sealant discharging apparatus is fixed by a support arm.

There are provided method and apparatus for controlling a robot, in which when the robot is continuously controlled in different directions such that from the movement in the horizontal direction to the movement in the vertical direction, the movements in the horizontal and vertical directions from a predetermined position are executed in parallel during the movement in the horizontal direction. In the method, target movement positions in the horizontal and vertical directions are input, a first distance which is necessary to move the robot in only the vertical direction is input, and the predetermined position is determined on the basis of the target movement positions in the horizontal and vertical directions and the first distance. The movements in the horizontal and vertical directions include the equal acceleration motion and the equal deceleration motion. With this method, the operator can easily perform the programming and teaching of the robot such that the robot can reach a desired final target position while avoiding obstacles without colliding therewith in the shortest time.

A method for stocking a plurality of containers in a stocking device and feeding one container at a time to a robot includes the steps of separately supporting each container in a vertically moveable frame and moving the frame to align a selected container at a drawing position. The selected container is withdrawn from the frame and a lid of a pallet on the withdrawn frame is removed. The articles are then supplied to the robot.

A controller for an automated apparatus includes a plurality of operating units which operate independently while cooperating with one another, each operating unit driving a plurality of input/output elements. The controller includes a program control device for programmatically controlling the plurality of operating units, a direct designating device which, when the program control device controls the plurality of operating units independent from an external unit, is for directly designating individual input/output elements by an exclusive first set of numbers within the automated apparatus, an external interface device for interfacing an external unit, and an indirect designating device which, when the program control device communicates with the external unit via the interface device, is for indirectly designating individual input/output elements by a mutually exclusive second set of numbers within each of the operating units. The indirect designating device has a converting device for converting the second set of numbers into the first set of numbers.

A clean robot capable of a linear conveying motion comprises a base, a first arm rotatably supported by the base, a second arm rotatably supported by the first arm, and a third arm rotatably supported by the second arm. Also provided are a first driving unit for rotating the first arm with respect to the base in a first rotational direction at a first angular velocity, a second driving unit for rotating the second arm with respect to the first arm in a second rotational direction reverse to the first rotational direction at a doubled angular velocity of the first angular velocity, and a third driving unit for rotating the third arm with respect to the second arm in the first rotational direction at the first angular velocity.
摘要:
An article feeding apparatus which feeds articles from a feed source to a section to be subjected to feeding includes a stocker for stocking a plurality of pallets retaining a plurality of articles in units of types of articles, with the stocker being capable of moving one pallet to a predetermined position, and a take-out unit for taking the pallet moved to the predetermined position outside the stocker in order to transfer articles to the section to be subjected to feeding. In addition, a buffer receives replacement of the pallets retaining the articles from external equipment and temporarily stores the plurality of pallets, and a replacing unit replaces the pallets in the stocker with the pallets in the buffer in accordance with a decrease in number of articles in the pallet in the stocker to a predetermined value as the articles are fed to the feeding section.
