    摘要: An apparatus including a robot drive; and a robot arm connected to the robot drive, where the robot arm includes a first link connected to the robot drive, a second link rotatably connected to the first link at a first rotatable connection, and an end effector rotatably connected to the second link at a second rotatable connection. The end effector includes a heat choke located between a substrate support area of the end effector and the second rotatable connection. At least one of the first rotatable connector or the second rotatable connection includes a rotary thermal coupling having interleaved members which are rotatable relative to each other.

    摘要: An apparatus including a robot arm comprising a wrist, and an end effector. The wrist includes a frame member. The frame member includes a first material having a first coefficient of thermal expansion. The end effector is connected to the wrist at a connection. The end effector is configured to support a substrate thereon. The end effector includes a first member and a second member. At least one of the first and second members has a different second material with a different second coefficient of thermal expansion. The connection includes the first and second members being stationarily attached to each other with a portion of the frame member sandwiched therebetween. The connection is configured to substantially prevent the different respective coefficients of thermal expansion to deflect the end effector relative to the wrist when the end effector and wrist are heated and/or cooled.

    摘要: Technology is provided for an air flow cooling system and self-balancing robot incorporating the same. The robot includes a body, a robot controller disposed in the body, and a pair of axle housings extending from the body, each containing a drive assembly. An arm extends from the body and supports a head unit. A plurality of intake fans are disposed in the body and are configured to draw air into the body, thereby pressurizing the body, axle housings, and head unit. An axle fan is disposed in at least one of the pair of axle housings and is configured to exhaust air from the axle housings.

    摘要: An industrial robot that can control the abrasion and damage of a bearing unit, and also control the deformation of an arm, even in the case of transferring a high-temperature transfer object in a vacuum. The industrial robot includes a bearing unit for supporting an arm at a joint section as a connection section between the arm and the main body. At the joint section, the arm has a first protrusion section protruding toward the main body, and meanwhile the main body has a first housing section in which a first hollow section for housing the first protrusion section is formed. The first protrusion section and the first housing section are formed of a material having higher thermal conductivity than the bearing unit has, and a semisolid thermally-conductive substance, having higher thermal conductivity than the bearing unit has, is placed in the first hollow section. Moreover, the main body includes; a heat radiator being formed of a material having higher thermal conductivity than the bearing unit has, and being positioned in the atmosphere; and a connecting section for connecting the first housing section and the heat radiator, the connecting section being formed of a material having higher thermal conductivity than the bearing unit has.
