Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A robot includes a joint as a first member, a link as a second member rotating around a third primary rotational axis in a bending and stretching manner with respect to the joint, a wiring board installed in the joint so that the first surface faces in a direction roughly perpendicular to the third primary rotational axis, and having a connector as a connection section to be connected to one end of an FPC as a flat cable disposed on the first surface, and a reel provided to the link, and formed by winding the other end side of the FPC around a rotational axis roughly parallel to the third primary rotational axis, and the FPC is connected to the first surface roughly perpendicularly to the first surface.

First claim
