Abstract: The present invention relates to a brake control device and a robot including same. A robot according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a normal power- supplying unit for supplying electric energy required to move and operate the robot; a brake module for braking or unbraking a motor that moves the robot; an emergency power- supplying unit which receives and stores electric energy from the normal power-supplying unit, and supplies the stored electric energy to the brake module when the supply of the electric energy from the normal power-supplying unit is cut off; and a control processor which applies, to the brake module, a signal for controlling the supply of the electric energy, and controls the movement and operation of the robot.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a wired/wireless integrated power reception system provided in a vehicle, the wireless/wireless integrated power reception system including: a wired power reception apparatus configured to receive power from a transformer in a wired power receiving mode; a relay unit, which upon detecting reception of wireless power from a wireless power transmission pad, is configured to switch to a wireless power receiving mode; and a wireless power reception pad configured to receive power by magnetic coupling in the wireless power receiving mode.

Abstract: A robot control device for a robot comprises a case and a connector board which is coupled to the case and includes a plurality of connectors which are disposed in a first region and a second region adjacent laterally to the first region. The plurality of the connectors may comprise a power connector which is disposed at a bottom of one of the first region or the second region and is coupled with a power supplier; and a processor connector which is disposed in a region different from that of the power supplier and is coupled with a processor.

Abstract: A robot may perform emergency stopping. The robot includes: a driving device configured to perform movement of the robot; a stop switch configured to output a stop switch signal; a controller configured to output a stop signal; and a stop circuit configured to output a first control signal and a second control signal for stopping the driving device. The stop circuit may output the first control signal and the second control signal in response to the stop signal and the stop switch signal.

Abstract: A wireless charging pad includes a ferrite plate, a coil disposed at the ferrite plate, and a resonance tank that includes a flat type capacitor. The flat type capacitor is configured to reduce an impedance of the coil.

Abstract: A foreign object detector for detecting a foreign object between a transmission pad and a reception pad of a wireless charging system can include a plurality of object detectors; and a detection circuit configured to detect an object based on data received from the plurality of object detectors, in which each of the plurality of object detectors includes a first coil part including a coil wound in a first rotation direction; and a second coil part stacked on the first coil part and including a coil wound in a second rotation direction different from the first rotational direction, and in which each of the plurality of object detectors is connected in series or in parallel with one another.
