A moving device is provided with a first moving body and a second moving body. First cord-shaped bodies are fed out from first feed-out length changing units provided on first feed-out units. The first cord-shaped bodies are connected to the first moving body. Second cord-shaped bodies are fed out from second feed-out length changing units provided on second feed-out units. The second cord-shaped bodies are connected to the second moving body. Further, the first moving body and the second moving body are connected to each other through a third cord-shaped body.

Moving device

The platform truck apparatus is provided with: a narrow platform truck for transporting a car body; a left sub-platform truck, which is attached along the left side of the narrow platform truck and is pulled by the narrow platform truck; a left parts shelf carried on the left sub-platform truck; a right sub-platform truck, which is attached along the right side of the narrow platform truck and is pulled by the narrow platform truck; and a right parts shelf carried on the right sub-platform truck. Because the left sub-platform truck is moved backward relative to the narrow platform truck when a car body is loaded onto the narrow platform truck, the left parts shelf does not interfere with the loading of the car body.

Platform truck apparatus, workpiece transfer method, and workpiece conveyor equipment

A vehicle body component mounting system is provided with, along a conveyance path for a vehicle body, an upstream component mounting work area using a cell production system, a central component mounting work area in which the vehicle body is conveyed by an overhead conveyor, and a downstream component mounting work area using the cell production system in this order. Components other than principal components are mounted to the vehicle body using the cell production system. The cell production system is adaptable by increasing the number of component boxes, and thus an increase in the length of the line is prevented. The increase in the length of the line is prevented by using a line production system as a base and also using the cell production system as a part thereof.

Vehicle body component mounting system

An apparatus executes movement control that causes a robot arm equipped with a camera to move up to an object, thereby enabling a manipulator to move to an object quickly, accurately, and stably as a control system. Specifically, when the object is not detected, the apparatus executes teaching playback control to cause a manipulator to move along a path up to a target position set in advance based on a position of the object. When the object is detected, the apparatus defines a position closer to the object than the target position as a new target position, sets a new path up to the new target position, executes teaching playback control to cause the manipulator to move along the new path until a switching condition for switching the movement control is fulfilled. When the switching condition is fulfilled, the apparatus executes visual servo control.

Information processing method, apparatus, and computer readable medium

A door opening method and device are provided that can reduce the size of the installation location of a robot, as well as achieve a reduction in cycle time. In a dual arm robot, two arms are rotated by each of an shaft Sand an shaft S. As a result, a door opening action (Step ST) is realized by rotation using the shaft S. Then, a movement to enter an interior side of a door () in order to perform a bolt loosening action is realized by rotation using the shaft Sand shaft S. The movement in this case is movement such as to face the direction of the door (). As a result, when moving to a door holding position (Step S), the dual arm robot is at an attitude facilitating performing a bolt loosening action.

According to the present invention, even during and immediately before a machining operation by a machining apparatus, it is possible to improve positioning control accuracy thereof and, as a result, machining accuracy thereof. A robotequipped with a machining toolperforms a moving operation to a target positionof a machining target workpieceand a machining operation on the machining target. A robot moving mechanismmoves the robotin parallel with the workpiecethat is being conveyed by a conveyance carriage. A robot control devicecontrols movement of the robot moving mechanismusing a detection result of a synchronizing sensorand carries out positioning control of the robotusing the detection result of a visual sensoror a synchronizing sensor
