Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a robot is provided. The robot includes an arm configured to turn around a turning axis and a cover including a first member having first rigidity and a second member having second rigidity higher than the first rigidity, the cover being provided in the arm, the second member being located in a position closer to the turning axis than the outermost periphery of the first member in a plan view from a direction of the turning axis.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A SCARA robot comprising: an arm configured to turn around a turning axis; and a cover including a first member having first rigidity and a second member having second rigidity higher than the first rigidity, the cover being provided in the arm, the second member being located in a position closer to the turning axis than an outermost periphery of the first member in a plan view from a direction of the turning axis. 2 . The SCARA robot according to claim 1 , wherein the second member includes a teaching operation section used to teach a position of the arm. 3 . The SCARA robot according to claim 2 , wherein the second member includes a projecting part, the projecting part projects in a direction away from the turning axis, and the teaching operation section is provided in the projecting part. 4 . The SCARA robot according to claim 3 , further comprising: an operation control device; and a force detecting section configured to detect force directly or indirectly applied to the arm, wherein the teaching operation section includes an operation section used to switch an teaching operation mode by a teaching pendant that transmits a teaching point to the operation control device and an teaching operation mode by direct teach performed based on an output from the force detecting section. 5 . The SCARA robot according to claim 1 , further comprising a shaft configured to move in a direction parallel to the turning axis with respect to the arm, wherein the second member includes a portion located between the shaft and the outermost periphery of the first member in the plan view from the direction of the turning axis. 6 . The SCARA robot according to claim 1 , wherein an end portion of the first member and an end portion of the second member cross at an angle larger than 90° in the plan view from the direction of the turning axis. 7 . The SCARA robot according to claim 1 , wherein an end portion of the first member and an end portion of the second member cross at an angle equal to or smaller than 90° in the plan view from the direction of the turning axis.
