Abstract
A robot has a structure in which finger joints do not interfere with each other. The robot includes a first actuator driving the finger joint, a first power transmission, a second actuator driving the finger joint, and a second power transmission. The first actuator and the first power transmission are coupled with a wrist joint so that the position of the first actuator and the first power transmission is changed. Accordingly, even if the wrist joint operates, the distance between the first actuator and the finger joint is constantly maintained.
Claims14
A robot comprising:
- a robot arm;
- a robot hand having a finger joint;
- a first actuator and a power transmission which drive the finger joint;
- and
- a wrist joint which rotates the robot hand about the robot arm,
- wherein the wrist joint includes a pitch-direction wrist joint to rotate the robot hand about the robot arm in a pitch direction, and
- wherein a position of the first actuator and the first power transmission is changed in cooperation with the pitch-direction wrist joint.
