Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A robot system includes a cell having a first surface at an angle different from that of a horizontal plane, and a robot provided on the first surface, wherein the robot has an nth (n is an integer number equal to or more than one) arm rotatable about an nth rotation shaft, and an (n+1)th arm provided on the nth arm rotatably about an (n+1)th rotation shaft in a shaft direction different from a shaft direction of the nth rotation shaft.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A robot system comprising: a cell having a first surface at an angle different from that of a horizontal plane; and a robot provided on the first surface, wherein the robot has an nth (n is an integer number equal to or more than one) arm rotatable about an nth rotation shaft, and an (n+1)th arm provided on the nth arm rotatably about an (n+1)th rotation shaft in a shaft direction different from a shaft direction of the nth rotation shaft. 2 . The robot system according to claim 1 , wherein the first surface is perpendicular to the horizontal plane. 3 . The robot system according to claim 1 , wherein the first surface is tilted with respect to the horizontal plane. 4 . The robot system according to claim 1 , wherein a length of the nth arm is longer than a length of the (n+1)th arm, and the nth arm and the (n+1)th arm can overlap as seen from the shaft direction of the (n+1)th rotation shaft. 5 . The robot system according to claim 4 , wherein an installation area of the robot cell is less than 637500 mm 2 . 6 . The robot system according to claim 4 , wherein an installation area of the robot cell is equal to or less than 500000 mm 2 . 7 . The robot system according to claim 1 , wherein the robot has a base provided on the first surface, and the n is one and the nth arm is provided on the base.
