Abstract
A safety apparatus is used to be arranged at a movable member of automatic device and is communicatively connected to a controller of the automatic device. The safety apparatus includes a contact detector and a module. The contact detector is for detecting a contact event of the safety apparatus, and outputting a contact signal. The module includes a first input terminal, a second input terminal and an output terminal. The first input terminal is communicatively connected to the contact detector, and is for receiving the contact signal. The second input terminal is communicatively connected to the output terminal, and is capable of communicatively connecting to an output terminal of another safety apparatus. The output terminal is communicatively connected to the first input terminal, and is for outputting an output signal when the first input terminal receives the contact signal. Upon receiving the output signal from the output terminal, the controller changes a motion state of the movable member of the automatic device.
