Abstract
A joint device includes a rotary shaft, two fixing members, two driving members, two transmission gears, and a link gear. The two driving members are respectively fixed to the two fixing members, and the two fixing members are pivoted to each other through the rotary shaft. The two driving members are respectively connected to and drive the two transmission gears. The link gear is pivoted to the rotary shaft and engaged with the two transmission gears respectively, so that the two driving members are in a transmission relation. The joint device adopts the combination of dual driving members and gear sets, thereby achieving the high reactivity and high load function.
