Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An arm link ( 30 ) is rotatably coupled to an upper base body ( 10 ) around a yaw axis through a shoulder joint mechanism ( 31 ). A fulcrum P of rotation of the arm link ( 30 ) is located within a range of widths of the upper base body ( 10 ) in a vertical direction and a horizontal direction of the upper base body ( 10 ).
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A robot comprising: a base body; a joint mechanism; and a movable link coupled to the base body through the joint mechanism, wherein the joint mechanism rotatably couples the movable link to the base body, and wherein a fulcrum of rotation of the movable link is located within a range of widths of the base body in a vertical direction and a horizontal direction. 2 . The robot according to claim 1 , wherein the joint mechanism rotatably couples the movable link to the base body so that the whole movable link moves to front, rear, an upper side, or a lower side of the base body from a reference posture in which the movable link is located on a side of the base body. 3 . The robot according to claim 1 , wherein the movable link has a plurality of link parts, and a joint part arranged between the adjacent link parts, and wherein a central axis line of rotation of the movable link with respect to the base body is inclined to the vertical direction or the horizontal direction of the base body. 4 . The robot according to claim 1 , wherein the movable link has a plurality of link parts, and a drive part which relatively rotates one of the adjacent link parts with respect to the other, and wherein the drive part is located on a base body side of the movable link in a state of a reference posture in which the movable link is located on a side of the base body. 5 . The robot according to claim 1 , comprising: a plurality of the movable links; and a plurality of the joint mechanisms which couple each of the movable links to the base body rotatably in a same direction, wherein each of the movable links has a first link part coupled to the base body through the joint mechanism, and a second link part which is rotatably coupled to the first link part, and in which an end effector is provided, and wherein a length of the first link part in an axial direction is shorter than that of the second link part in an axial direction.
