摘要:
An interchangeable tool including a finger of a shape suitable for various components is mechanically detachably mounted to a robot arm. This eliminates the need for seeking the origin of the actuator for each interchange. By interchanging fingers themselves, the entire end effector can be reduced in size and weight.

A robot apparatus includes a robot arm and a held-state detector. The robot arm includes a first holder configured to hold a to-be-held object. The held-state detector is coupled to the robot arm and is configured to detect a held state of the to-be-held object held by the first holder while the robot arm is transferring the to-be-held object.
摘要:
An object handling apparatus capable of securely holding an object and precisely transferring the held object from a first place to a second place without need of a specific jig for positioning the object on a pallet. A position of an object supplied to the first place is detected by a first visual sensor to obtain a compensation amount for compensating a position displacement of the supplied object. The object is held by a robot hand having position/orientation compensated using the compensation amount and position/orientation of the object held by the robot hand relative to the robot hand is detected by a second visual sensor. A displacement of the position/orientation of the object held by the robot hand from a reference position/orientation is compensated based on the detected position/orientation of the object on the robot hand, so that the object held by the robot hand is precisely moved to have a predetermined position/orientation to be transferred to the second place. The robot hand may be a servo hand having fingers driven by one or more servomotors so that position and force of the fingers in holding the object is controlled.
摘要:
An automated assembly and contacting of electrical components are disclosed. Before a fed component is gripped, a control device of a mounting device for mounting and contacting electrical components is provided with information associated with the component comprising, in relation to a component coordinate system of the component, the position, orientation and a relevant length of electrical connections of the component, and the position and type of handling of the handling locations of the component. A position and an orientation of the component in relation to a machine coordinate system are known to the control device. Using the position and the orientation of the component in the machine coordinate system, the control device converts the positions and orientations defined by the information associated with the component into the machine coordinate system and takes the positions and orientations into account when gripping and assembling the component.
摘要:
Three-dimensional measurement data is obtained (step S1). The poses of bulk parts are calculated (step S2). The gripping poses of a hand relative to the bulk parts are calculated (step S3). Individual evaluation indices are calculated (step S4). Overall evaluation indices are calculated (step S5). The gripping poses are sorted using the overall evaluation indices (step S6). The calculated gripping poses appear on a screen (step S7). The gripping poses are sorted by a user in an intended order (step S8). Determination is performed as to whether the difference between the results of the sorting in step S6 and in step S8 is small (step S9). In response to the difference being sufficiently small, parameters used in the calculation of the overall evaluation indices are stored (step S11). In response to the difference not being sufficiently small, the parameters are updated (step S10) and the processing returns to step S5.

In this robot system, a control portion is configured to control a robot to grasp an object to be grasped by a grasping portion, and control a first imaging portion to examine the object to be grasped while driving a robot arm to change a posture of the object to be grasped multiple times.
摘要:
A robot includes a hand that grips an object and a control unit that operates the hand, the hand includes fingers that are able to grip the object at four or more contact points, and an object of which a metallic tone index is equal to or higher than 5 is gripped with the hand.
摘要:
A control device for controlling a robot which has a tool for holding a workpiece and a force measuring part for measuring a force acting on the tool. The control device includes a calculating part for calculating a center-of-gravity position of the workpiece, based on force data measured by the force measuring part with a plurality of postures of the robot holding the workpiece, a processing part for performing at least one of a process for estimating a holding state of the workpiece, a process for determining a type of the workpiece, and a process for testing a quality of the workpiece, based on the position of the tool and the center-of-gravity position of the workpiece, and an operating command modifying part for modifying an operating command to the robot, based on a result of the process performed by the processing part.
摘要:
An assembly tool includes a head and an actuator system. The head includes a collar swaging tool that is moveable along a first axis substantially perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the assembly tool. A sensor system detects a first position of the head within the confined space, and a second position of the collar swaging tool relative to the target object. The actuator system positions the head within the confined space, and the collar swaging tool relative to the target object.
