摘要:
In order to improve the monitoring of a machine with movable parts, such as in particular an industrial robot, and for increasing safety, the invention provides a method for monitoring movable parts of a machine, such as an industrial robot, in which at least two different measured quantities are detected and at least one of these measured quantities is processed to a first measure result in such a way that it is comparable with another measured quantity or a second measure result obtained on the basis thereof, that the first measure result is compared with another measured quantity or a measure result obtained on the basis thereof and that a signal characterizing the comparison result is provided. The invention also provides a machine with movable parts, such as in particular an industrial robot, which is characterized by at least two measuring devices for detecting different measured quantities on movable parts of the machine, a processing unit for at least one measured quantity for the processing thereof into a first measure result comparable with another measured quantity or a second measure result obtained therefrom and a comparison unit for comparing the first measure result with at least one other measured quantity or a second measure result obtained on the basis thereof.
摘要:
It is determined whether the first tool identification information that is output from a robot control device, and that indicates a present tool and the second tool identification information for detecting and identifying a tool attached to the robot are unequal to each other. The position coordinates of the taught reference point in an actual space of the robot occurring at the time when the unequalness therebetween is first detected are set as reference coordinates, and a region that contains the reference coordinates is set as a predetermined region. If the position coordinates of the taught reference point have come to exist outside the predetermined region during a period during which it is determined that the foregoing two pieces of information are unequal, an emergency stop signal for causing the robot to be in a safe state is output.
摘要:
A method and device (1) for controlling the movement of a movable part such as a robot arm (3) in a milking robot (1). A control (7) controls the movement of the arm (3) from an actual position (Pxa, Pya, Pza) to a desired position (Pxd, Pyd, Pzd) A detector (45, 47, 49) detects the actual position of the robot arm (3) and transmits signals corresponding to the actual position to the control (7). The predicted position (Pxp, Pyp, PyP), that the robot arm (3) will pass through as it moves from the actual position to the desired position our model (S). The control (7) makes a comparison (S) of the actual positions of the arm (3) against to the predicted positions, and the movement of the robot arm (3) is modified if its actual position at any time differs by more than a predetermined amount from the predicted position at the same time.

摘要:
Method for controlling the action of a robotic arm which comprises the following stages: a) moving the robotic arm by means of an action programmed in a controller; b) measuring the force which the robotic arm applies at specific points in the movement in stage a); c) comparing the force applied at each of the points in stage b) with force profile data stored in the controller; d) as a result of the comparison in paragraph c), generating an alarm signal if the force measured in stage b) is outside the limits defined in the force profile and carrying out stage a) if the force measured in stage b) is within the limits defined in the force profile.
