Abstract
An application device includes: a discharger having a discharge port configured to discharge an application material; a first supporter movably supporting the discharger around a position of the discharge port; and a first driver configured to move the discharger supported by the first supporter. An application method, includes: making a central axis of a discharge port coaxial with any rotation axis in an arm portion of an application robot, the discharge port being configured to discharge an application material; and applying the application material to an applied surface while moving a discharger having the discharge port around a position of the discharge port.
Claims16
An application device, comprising:
- a discharger having a discharge port configured to discharge an application material;
- a first supporter movably supporting the discharger around a position of the discharge port;
- a first driver configured to move the discharger supported by the first supporter, the first driver having an output shaft;
- a drive-side member coupled to the output shaft of the first driver;
- and
- a driven-side member disposed on the discharger, wherein
- the drive-side member has an opening extending in a direction perpendicular to the output shaft of the first driver, and
- the driven-side member has a pin inserted through the opening to transmit rotation of the drive-side member to the driven-side member.
An application device, comprising:
- a discharger having a discharge port configured to discharge an application material;
- a first supporter movably supporting the discharger around a position of the discharge port;
- a first driver configured to move the discharger supported by the first supporter;
- a mounting portion secured to the first driver and the first supporter;
- and
- a second supporter having an arc-shaped second rail, the arc-shaped second rail movably supporting the mounting portion, wherein
- the first supporter has an arc-shaped first rail,
- the discharger is supported by the arc-shaped first rail,
- the discharger is configured to slide along the arc-shaped first rail by the first driver,
- the mounting portion is configured to slide along the arc-shaped second rail, and
- the arc-shaped second rail is arranged intersecting with the arc-shaped first rail.
