Abstract
A work management system is applied to a work area in which a predetermined work is executed by a worker and a robot. The work management system includes a control section configured to control the robot such that a specified operation set in advance is included in an operation by the robot executing the predetermined work, an information acquisition section configured to acquire work information indicating a presence or absence of the specified operation in at least one of an execution result and an execution process of the predetermined work, and an identification section configured to identify whether a work subject of the predetermined work is the worker or the robot based on the work information acquired by the information acquisition section.
Claims12
A work management system that is applied to a work area in which a predetermined work is executed by a worker and a robot, comprising:
- a controller configured to control the robot such that a specified operation set in advance is included in an operation by the robot executing the predetermined work which a replenishment work or a recovery work of the feeder for a work device including the feeder;
- and
- a computer configured to
- acquire work information indicating a presence or absence of the specified operation in at least one of an execution result and an execution process of the predetermined work when the predetermined work is executed in the work area;
- and
- identify whether a work subject of the predetermined work is the worker or the robot based on the acquired work information,
- wherein the robot is configured to perform an exchange process of a feeder, the robot including a first portion aligned with an upper slot of the work device, a second portion aligned with a lower slot of the work device disposed below the first portion, and holding arms each being independently movable in an attachment and detachment direction and each including a distal end portion configured to cooperate with a held section of the feeder so as to hold the feeder, the holding arms being integrally movable in an up-down direction between the first portion and the second portion, and the controller is configured to control the holding arms.
A work management system that is applied to a work area in which a predetermined work is executed by a worker and a robot, comprising:
- a controller configured to control the robot executing the predetermined work;
- a detection device configured to detect the worker in the work area;
- and
- a computer configured to identify whether a work subject of the predetermined work is the worker or the robot based on a detection result by the detection device when the predetermined work is executed in the work area,
- wherein the robot is configured to perform an exchange process of a feeder, the robot including a first portion, a second portion disposed below the first opening, and holding arms each being independently movable in an attachment and detachment direction and each including a distal end portion configured to cooperate with a held section of the feeder so as to hold the feeder, the holding arms being integrally movable in an up-down direction between the first portion and the second portion, and the controller is configured to control the holding arms,
- wherein the predetermined work is a replenishment work or a recovery work of the feeder for a work device including the feeder, and
- wherein the first portion of the robot is aligned with an upper slot of the work device, and the second portion of the robot aligned with a lower slot of the work device.
