Abstract
An element changer includes a plurality of operation pin members () inserted in a housing (). Each of the operation pin members () has a wedge surface (). When the operation pin members () are pushed into the housing (), each wedge surface () is disengaged from an engaging portion () provided at a leading end portion of a tubular wall portion () of a tool plate () or of a connection plate (). This allows a tool () functioning as a second element to be detached from a robot arm () functioning as a first element.
