Joint unit, joint system, robot for manipulation and/or transportation, robotic exoskeleton system and method for manipulation and/or transportation

Abstract

A joint unit, in particular a joint unit of a robot, a joint system, a robot for manipulation and/or transportation, in particular for transportation of an object, a robotic exoskeleton system and a method for manipulation and/or transportation, in particular for transportation of an object, in particular for moving a body. The joint unit has a rotary drive, a gear, at least one spring element and a joint output. The gear has a gear input and a gear output, wherein the gear input is mechanically coupled to the rotary drive and suitable for transformation of the torque provided by the rotary drive. The spring element is mechanically coupled to the gear output and suitable for at least partial storing of the torque provided by the gear output and/or of the torque provided by an external load applied to the joint unit.
