A coating system includes coating robots configured to coat a vehicle, and an operation robot. The operation robot includes a first arm configured to turn around a first axis; a second arm configured to turn around a second axis parallel to the first axis; a third arm configured to turn around a third axis parallel to the first axis; a fourth arm configured to turn around a fourth axis perpendicular to the first axis; a fifth arm configured to turn around a fifth axis parallel to the fourth axis; and a tip jig is supported at the fifth arm and is configured to turn around a sixth axis. The sixth axis is selectively parallel to the fifth axis or perpendicular to a plane which includes the fourth axis and the fifth axis.

Coating system having plurality of coating robots and operation robot having five arms and tip jig

A robot according to embodiments includes a speed reducer, a first shaft, a rotary electric machine, a second shaft, and a brake. The speed reducer reduces and outputs rotation to be input into an input unit. The first shaft is connected to the input unit. The rotary electric machine rotates the first shaft. The second shaft is connected to the input unit. The brake regulates the rotation of the second shaft.

Robot and robot system

A robot system according to embodiments includes a robot and a control unit. The robot includes a plurality of movable units that operate in a predetermined direction and links connected to the movable units, and the control unit controls an operation of the movable units of the robot. Moreover, the robot system transfers a detachable member mounted on a predetermined movable unit by causing a movable unit other than the predetermined movable unit to operate in a state where the predetermined movable unit is stopped.

Robot system

A transfer robot includes a hand section, a horizontal arm mechanism, and a lift mechanism. An object is to be placed on the hand section. The horizontal arm mechanism is connected to the hand section and includes at least two rotary joints. The horizontal arm mechanism is configured to extend and contract so as to move the hand section along one direction. The lift mechanism is configured to move the horizontal arm mechanism up and down and includes a plurality of link mechanisms disposed on a base member. The horizontal arm mechanism is disposed between parts of the lift mechanism when the horizontal arm mechanism is moved to a lowest position.

Transfer robot

A transfer robot includes a hand section on which an object is placed; a horizontal arm mechanism connected to the hand section, the horizontal arm mechanism including at least two rotary joints, the horizontal arm mechanism extending and contracting so as to move the hand section along one direction, the horizontal arm mechanism being disposed so as to face in an axial direction; and a lift mechanism including a link mechanism that moves the horizontal arm mechanism up and down, wherein the lift mechanism includes at least two sets of link mechanisms disposed on a base member, and wherein the horizontal arm mechanism is disposed between parts of the lift mechanism when the horizontal arm mechanism is moved to a lowest position.

Transfer robot, transfer method, and control method

An articulated robot having a low lowest posture, a long up-down stroke, and such rigidity that the predetermined positional accuracy can be secured is provided. It includes a first arm () which is rotatable about a first horizontal axis (), a second arm () which is rotatable about a second horizontal axis () at the other end of the first arm (), a third arm () which is rotatable about a third horizontal axis () at the other end of the second arm (), an up-down table () which is rotatable about a fourth horizontal axis () at the other end of the third arm (), a fourth arm which is rotatable about the first horizontal axis () and rotatable about the second horizontal axis () at its other end, a first parallel link mechanism (), a second parallel link mechanism (), and a third parallel link mechanism ().
