A robot includes a base, a robot arm having a first arm provided on the base and configured to rotate about a first rotation axis and a second arm provided on the first arm and configured to rotate about a second rotation axis, a cable placed inside of the robot arm, and a tube having a suction hole for suctioning a gas inside of the robot arm when connected to a pump, wherein a first gap is provided between the first arm and the second arm, and the suction hole is placed inside of the robot arm.

Robot

A force detecting device includes a recess located on the outer surface of the force detecting device and an electric connector provided in the recess. An electric cable for the force detecting device attached to the electric connector is inserted into the through-hole.

Force detecting device and robot system

A robot includes a base; a robot arm that includes an arm which is rotatable around a rotation axis with respect to the base; and a connector that is provided in the base and is capable of being connected to an external wire. The connector is located on a side of the center of gravity more than a line that is perpendicular to a location of a center of gravity of the robot arm when the robot arm is in a basic posture and a line segment passing through the rotation axis and passes through the rotation axis, as viewed from an axial direction of the rotation axis.

A robot includes: an n-th arm (where n is at least one integer equal to or greater than 1) that includes a first portion and a second portion having a portion extending in a different direction from the first portion and is rotatable around an n-th rotation axis; and an (n+1)-th arm that is installed in the n-th arm to be rotatable around an (n+1)-th rotation axis as a different axis direction from a axis direction of the n-th rotation axis. The second portion is located closer to the (n+1)-th arm than the first portion. The n-th arm and the (n+1)-th arm are overlapable when viewed in the axis direction of the (n+1)-th rotation axis. The n-th rotation axis and the (n+1)-th rotation axis are separate from each other. A length of the (n+1)-th arm is equal to or less than 80% of a length of the second portion.

In a robot, each of a first flexible member and a second flexible member has a portion fixed to an n-th arm, a portion that is fixed to an (n+1)-th arm, and a portion that is positioned between the n-th arm and the (n+1)-th arm and is wound around a member in a folded state. The portion of the first flexible member that is fixed to the n-th arm is positioned on the member side from the portion of the second flexible member that is fixed to the n-th arm. The portion of the second flexible member that is fixed to the (n+1)-th arm is positioned on the member side from the portion of the first flexible member that is fixed to the (n+1)-th arm.

Robot, control device, and robot system

A robot system includes a robot and a robot control apparatus. The robot control apparatus is connected to the robot for controlling the robot and includes a casing and a display unit movable with respect to the casing and displaying information. The casing has a plurality of attachment parts to which the display unit is attached. The plurality of attachment parts are provided on first and second surfaces of the casing, and the first surface is not parallel to the second surface.

Robot control apparatus

A robot includes: a base; an arm which is provided to be rotatable with respect to the base using a predetermined rotation shaft as the center of rotation; and an elongated object including a portion present in the base and in the arm, in which the elongated object is bound in a first binding position which is on the rotation shaft and in the base and a second binding position which is on the rotation shaft and in the arm.

A robot includes an nth arm (n is a natural number), an (n+1)th arm rotatably supported with respect to the nth arm, and a connection destination selection part that can select a connection destination of a cable routing present inside of the nth arm from a cable routing present outside of the nth arm and a cable routing present inside of the (n+1)th arm.
