Packaging member and packaging method for parallel link robot

Abstract

A packaging member for a parallel link robot is removably assembled to a subassembly when the subassembly is packaged. The subassembly includes at least a pair of parallel passive links constituting the parallel link robot and at least one connecting member connecting the pair of passive links. The connecting member is a member that is connected to the pair of passive links so as to be rotatable about individual axes orthogonal to a plane including longitudinal axes of the pair of passive links and that can be disconnected when a spacing between the axes becomes less than or equal to a predetermined disassembly distance. The packaging member holds the pair of passive links at relative positions where the spacing is larger than the disassembly distance.
