A robot system includes a robot having a base, a robot arm coupled to the base, a motor that drives the robot arm, a supply unit that supplies electric power to the motor, and a switch mechanism that switches between a conduction state in which the motor and the supply unit are conducting and a non-conduction state in which the motor and the supply unit are not conducting, and a vehicle having a movement mechanism that transports the robot and an operation portion that operates the switch mechanism and turns the conduction state to the non-conduction state, and being configured to take a coupled state in which the vehicle is coupled to the base and a decoupled state in which the vehicle is decoupled from the base, wherein the operation portion operates the switch mechanism in the coupled state.

Robot system and control method for robot system

A robot comprising a base, an arm provided on the base, an actuator configured to drive the arm, a connector to which at least a part of a first wire of another device is connected, and a second wire configured to connect the actuator and the connector, wherein the base includes a cover through which the first wire is inserted, the cover covering at least a part of a hole of the base, and the cover includes a cutout for detaching the cover from the base by, in a state in which a screw fastening the cover and the base is loosened, sliding in a direction crossing a direction in which the first wire is inserted through the cover.

Robot 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.
