Abstract
A transfer robot includes an arm unit having a hand capable of holding one of transferred objects, a base unit mounted to an installation frame and horizontally rotatably supporting the arm unit, an attachment member for attaching the base unit to the installation frame, and an elevation mechanism arranged within the base unit and provided with an elevation member linked to the arm unit. The elevation mechanism is configured to move the arm unit up and down within an arm-unit up/down movement range defined above the base unit by moving the elevation member up and down along a vertical shaft. The base unit is fixed to the installation frame in a state that a portion of the base unit extending by a specified height from a bottom wall of the base unit to the attachment member is embedded in the base receiving recess of the installation frame.
