Abstract
A robotic system for carrying out an operation is provided. The robotic system is lightweight. The principle application of the robotic system is in manufacturing industry typically to hold a tool that can perform various operations. The robotic system includes a first carriage, an arm, an arm swiveling mechanism, a second carriage, a first displacement mechanism, and a controller. The first carriage is configured to be linearly displaced. The arm is coupled to the first carriage. The second carriage is connected to a free end of the arm, and is configured to securely hold the tool. The first displacement mechanism is configured to displace the second carriage.
Claims19
A robotic system (200) for carrying out an operation, said system (200) comprising:
- a first carriage (206) configured to be linearly displaced;
- an arm (202) coupled to said first carriage (206);
- an arm swiveling mechanism (210) coupled to said first carriage (206) and said arm (202), and configured to angularly displace said arm (202) when said first carriage (206) is linearly displaced;
- a second carriage (208) coupled to a free end (202b) of said arm (202);
- a first displacement mechanism (203) coupled to said second carriage (208) and said arm (202), and configured to displace said second carriage (208) about said free end (202b) of said arm (202);
- and
- a controller adapted for synchronizing the movement of said arm (202), said first carriage (206), and said second carriage (208) to perform an operation.
