A braking device for a drive device of a joint between two links of a robot arm including a brake activating device and a locking element, wherein the brake activating device is designed to bring the locking element into engagement with a rotor of the drive device as required in order to halt rotation of the rotor, the locking element being designed as a bolt and the braking element being designed as a braking star with webs which have a defined impact surface for the bolt.

Brake assembly for a drive device in a robot

A connection assembly between a drive-side structure and a transmission outer ring sealing a transmission arranged radially inside, wherein an annular chamber comprising a connection element arranged therein is configured between the transmission outer ring and the drive-side structure, and a peripheral guide is axially configured at least on one side of the annular chamber between the transmission outer ring and the drive-side structure, wherein the connection element comprises bulges which are spaced over the peripheral extension and are elastically deformable and forms a force-fit connection between the transmission outer ring and the drive-side structure when the bulges elastically deform.

Connection assembly of a transmission in a structure

A robot having a robot manipulator with an effector, wherein the robot manipulator is designed and constructed for picking up, handling, and releasing an object and is controlled by a control unit, the robot including a first sensor means designed and constructed to determine a persisting adherence of the object to an effector after a release of the object by the effector, and where such an adherence persists, to generate a signal S, wherein when a signal S is present, the control unit is designed and constructed to control the robot manipulator in such a manner that it executes a predefined movement B in which the effector with the persistently adhering object is passed by a wiping object in such a manner that the adhering object is wiped off the effector on a surface or an edge of the wiping object.

Robot and method for controlling a robot

A drive unit for joint being arranged between two arm members of a manipulator of a robotic system, the drive unit being intended for the rotatory drive of one arm member in relation to the other arm member, the drive unit having a first drive module, which is to be connected to a first arm member by means of at least one connecting element in a force- and torque-transmitting manner, and having a second drive module, which is to be connected with a second arm member by means of at least one connecting element in a force- and torque-transmitting manner, in which the connecting elements are configured to cooperate with the arm members in radial direction with respect to the rotary axis of the drive unit.

Drive unit for a robot and method for manufacturing the same

The present invention relates to a robotic system having at least one robot arm which consists of a plurality of members/limbs, which are connected with each other by joints, in which the housing is configured to transmit the torques and forces, which are introduced into the member, onto a member being adjacent thereto, and in which the housing is composed of at least two housing parts being complementary in shape, which housing parts are connected to each other in a manner allowing the transmission of torques and forces.

Robotic system and housing part for such robotic system

The invention relates to a joint device, comprising an electric motor, an electrically controllable blocking apparatus), various control apparatuses, and a brake system, in the case of which brake system, in various alternatives, the brake system takes maximum energy from the system by means of active closed-loop/open-loop control or by triggering a (cycled) short circuit whenever possible and only triggers the mechanical blocking as a last resort in order to protect the mechanical and electrical system itself, but nevertheless ensures that the system is securely shut down after a maximum time.
