摘要： The present invention is a continuum robot system including a continuum robot including a bendable body and a base portion at which the bendable body is provided; a support base including a moving stage that supports the continuum robot such that the continuum robot is detachable from and attachable to the moving stage and is movable along a straight line; and an arm that supports the support base and that is turnable about a first shaft. The continuum robot moves along a plane perpendicular to the first shaft when the moving stage with the continuum robot mounted on the moving stage is moved.

摘要： Systems, devices, and methods are directed to automated preparation of food or consumable items, such as for preparation of fried foods. An example cooking apparatus may include processing devices for the consumable items. In some examples, a robot arm is provided that extends from a moveable base. Locators may define a relative position of the moveable base relative to processing device(s) of the cooking apparatus, such that the robot arm is configured to determine robot arm movements to move the consumable items to and from the processing device(s). In some examples, one or more zones may be used to detect movement near a robot arm, with one or more restrictions being placed upon robot arm and/or base movement in response. In some examples, a cooking apparatus provides automated transport of food ingredients for preparation of food or other consumable items.

摘要： The present disclosure provides a method and system by which a precise amount of a viscous fluid sealing compound can be dispensed at required locations through computer vision-based observation of the fluid deposited, its rate and amount of deposition and location; and that the dispensed fluid may be accurately shaped through robotic or other special purpose mechanism motion. The invention enables instant quality inspection of the dispensing process in terms of the locations, amounts and shapes of newly created seals.

摘要： A robotic fastening system is operative to autonomously fasten a first subassembly to a second subassembly at a plurality of fastening sites. A set of actuators arranged to move a fastening tool to the various ones of the fastening sites. A proximity sensor is fixed proximate the fastening tool and movable with the fastening tool. A controller circuit is operative to individually control each of the set of actuators and to read an output of the proximity sensor, where the controller circuit is programmed to execute a fastening-tool movement routine to move the fastening tool to a first one of the fastening sites.

摘要： A frame body may be parallel to and proximate with an external surface of a structure and extend substantially horizontally from a first side to a second side. A connecting portion may be provided to be attached to a cable to provide for vertical movement of the frame body. A robotic arm may be affixed proximate to a bottom of the frame body and be able to move horizontally during treatment of the external surface. Moreover, the robotic arm may extend to an end proximate with the external surface, and a cleaning portion may be attached to the robotic arm near the end proximate with the external surface. The robotic arm may rotate, vertically moving the cleaning portion during treatment of the external surface. In addition, the cleaning portion may be separately rotated to remain substantially parallel to and proximate with the external surface during rotation of the robotic arm.

摘要： Processe and system for preparing a vehicle surface (e.g., an aircraft fuselage) for painting include a preparation booth (100) which is sized and configured to house the vehicle (F). At least one robotic assembly (200a, 200b) is reciprocally movable within the preparation booth (100) relative to a longitudinal axis of the vehicle (F), and is provided with a robotic hand (230) having at least one abrasive disc (242a) attached to an attachment pad (242) of the robotic hand (230), and at least one nozzle (252a, 252b, 252c) for discharging a stream of rinse fluid. Operation of the at least one robotic assembly (230) will cause the at least one abrasive disc (242a) of the robot hand (230) to abrade the surface of the vehicle (F). The robotic hand (230) may thereafter be maneuvered so that the at least one nozzle (252a, 252b, 252c) is directed toward the abraded vehicle surface (F). A stream of rinse fluid may then be discharged through the at least one nozzle (252a, 252b, 252c) and towards the abraded surface of the vehicle (F) so as to rinse the abraded surface of particulate matter.

摘要： A workpiece information recognition system includes a workpiece placing tool (20) capable of placing a workpiece, a reference block (31) detachably provided on workpiece placing tool (20), an information detector configured to detect information about reference block (31), and a control device configured to receive the information of reference block (31) from the information detector. The control device includes a storage configured to store data on a relationship between the information about reference block (31) and information about the workpiece and a controller configured to recognize the information about the workpiece placed on workpiece placing tool (20) by checking the information about reference block (31) detected by the information detector with the data stored in the storage. With this configuration, the workpiece information recognition system capable of easily cope with a change in a type of the workpiece is provided.
