Abstract
An industrial robot for conveying a conveying object may include a hand having a mounting part, an articulated arm part having at least a hand holding arm which is extended and folded when the conveying object is conveyed, a main body part which turnably holds the articulated arm part, and a cam member which is provided in the hand holding arm and which is formed with a cam face with which the holding part is abutted and which is relatively turned with respect to the hand around a turning center of the hand with an extending and folding operation of the articulated arm part. The cam face is formed so that the holding part is retreated from the conveying object before the conveying object is conveyed and, when the conveying object is conveyed, the holding part is moved in a direction to hold the conveying object.
