A robot apparatus having no need for securing a space for installing both a robot movable section and a robot controller. The robot apparatus includes a frame having strength enough to support the robot movable section, and containing the robot controller therein. The robot movable section is installed on the frame. The robot controller and the robot movable section are electrically connected to each other via a coupling cable passing through a hole formed inside. Over the base of the robot movable section, first, second and another arms are provided via rotating mechanism portions. The distal end of the third arm constitutes a wrist portion of a robot. Various types of hands are attached to this wrist portion. Thus, the robot movable section can be installed on the frame containing the robot controller.

A device for detecting the limits of the rotational motion of a rotating member in an industrial robot is provided. The rotating member rotates in a first and a second rotational direction about an axis relative to a fixed member. The device comprises a limit switch provided on one of the members and a contact piece, provided on the fixed member, for activating the limit switch. The contact piece is rotatable between first and second angular position about an axis parallel to the axis of rotating member.

A window mechanism for a sensor provided at the distal end of a robot arm of an industrial robot comprises a housing for enclosing the sensor which housing includes an opening, a glass plate for closing the opening, wiper for wiping the outer surface of the glass plate, a holder plate for slidably holding the glass plate member on the housing, and an exchanger for exchanging the plate member held by the holder with a new glass plate.
摘要:
An articulated industrial robot provided with a reference position setting means which includes two positioning contact parts 22 and 24, and the reference position setting means is provided for each joint 16 of a robot unit 10 in such a manner that the positioning contact parts 22 and 24 are brought into contact with each other so as to perform determination of a geometrical reference position for each joint drive source after the replacement of a defective drive motor or a defective reduction gear of the joint drive source. The determined geometrical reference position regarding each of the joint axes are stored in the robot controller to thereby achieve a single-axis mastering,and thus the reference position setting means simplifies single-axis mastering with respect to each joint axis of the robot unit without being subject to any spatial restrictions.
摘要:
A small-locus machining apparatus is attached to the distal end of a wrist of a robot but operable independently of a robot body. First and second drives of the apparatus are mounted on a base in such a manner that respective output spindles are parallel with each other. First and second rotational arms are coupled to the output spindles through decelerators, which are directly connected to the drives, allowing rotation in a plane orthogonal to the output spindles. These rotational arms and links interconnecting the rotational arms constitute a link mechanism having, for example, five joints. A tool is attached to this link mechanism, and the rotational amounts of the first and second arms are detected to determine the coordinate position of the tool.

An arm structure for an industrial robot, comprising a first robot arm (16) supported on top of a vertical robot shaft (14), and a second robot arm (20) pivotally joined through a transmission-reduction gear box (18) to the free end of the first robot arm (16). A plurality of coupling bolts (22) are extended through the interior of the first robot arm (16), each coupling bolt (22) has one end (22b) fastened to the flange (18b) of the transmission-reduction gear box (18) and the other end (22a) projecting from and fastened to the rear end of the first robot arm (16). Fastening nuts (24) each engage at least one end (22a or 22b) of each coupling bolt (22) to couple the first robot arm (16) and the transmission-reduction gear box (18) so as to preload the first robot arm (16) by a compressive force.
