Image processing method, image processing apparatus, robot-mounted transfer device, and system

In a system () including a robot (), a transportation device () moving with the robot () mounted thereon, and a controller, an operating pose of the robot () and an operation position of the transportation device () in a three-dimensional space formed by first, second, and third axes orthogonal to one another are set by a teaching operation. The transportation device () is moved to a predetermined operation position and this operation position is stored as a provisional operation position, and the robot () is brought into a predetermined operating pose and this operating pose is stored as a provisional operating pose. Subsequently, an acting part () of the robot () is moved along the first axis and the second axis to confirm whether movable amounts of the acting part () exceed positioning error amounts in the same directions of the transportation device (). When both of the movable amounts exceed the positioning error amounts, the provisional operation position is set as a target operation position and the provisional operating pose is set as a target operating pose.

Setting method using teaching operation

Provided is a running device including a frame () and a first wheel part () and a second wheel part () arranged with an appropriate distance therebetween along a running direction (R). The first wheel part () includes a first left support arm () and a first right support arm () arranged on the frame () in a manner to be swingable within a plane extending along the running direction (R). The second wheel part () includes a second support arm () arranged on the frame () in a manner to be swingable within a plane perpendicular to the running direction (R). The first left support arm () has first left wheels () respectively on both sides thereof, and the first right support arm () has first right wheels () respectively on both sides thereof. The second support arm () has a second left wheel () and a second right wheel () respectively on both sides thereof.
