Abstract
A robot includes a base; an articulated arm provided on the base; a sensor that is provided on the base and detects external force applied to the articulated arm; a controller that causes the articulated arm to perform a stop motion on a basis of a detected value of the sensor; and a cable having one end connected to devices mounted on a tip-side arm member of the articulated arm, and having the other end connected to the controller that controls the devices wherein the cable enters into the articulated arm from an arm member, passes through arm members which are disposed closer to the base side than the arm member is, and is connected to the controller.
Claims3
A robot comprising:
- a base;
- an articulated arm provided on the base;
- a sensor that is provided on the base and detects external force applied to the articulated arm;
- a controller that causes the articulated arm to make a stop motion, a deceleration motion, or an avoidance motion on a basis of a detected value of the sensor;
- and
- a cable having one end connected to a device mounted on a tip-side member of the articulated arm, and having the other end connected to a cable-connected device that controls the device and supplies a fluid or electric power to the device,
- wherein the cable enters into the articulated arm from a member subjected to insertion which is a member of the articulated arm on which the device is mounted or a member near the member of the articulated arm, passes through a member of the articulated arm which is disposed closer to the base side than the member subjected to insertion is, and is connected to the cable-connected device.
