Disclosed is a cable-driven parallel robot capable of changing a workspace, in which the cable-driven parallel robot is provided with an end effector having a plurality of modules that can efficiently move to upper and side parts of an object without interference. Module-direction changing standby stations are provided on each of opposing sides of an upper frame such that the modules of the end effector are coupled to the module-direction changing standby station for direction change standby, so that the modules can efficiently move to upper and side parts of the workspace without interference, thereby maximizing work efficiency. To this end, there is provided a cable-driven parallel robot including: an installation frame, and upper and side frames; a plurality of driving units; a plurality of cables; the module-direction changing standby station; and an end effector provided with a plurality of modules.

An electromagnetic actuating device. A coil unit generates magnetic field toward a medical device inserted into a human body. An actuator drives the coil unit to move back and forth, thereby adjusting the rate of a change in magnetic force or magnetic field applied to the medical device. The coil unit moves linearly back and forth depending on the body shape of a subject and the body part to be diagnosed, such that actuation force is efficiently supplied to the medical device.
