  • Patent number: 12691595
    Abstract: A robot arm includes a plurality of configuration joints which determine the configuration of the robot arm; a base stand; a carousel mounted on the base stand for rotation about a first axis by a first joint of the configuration joints; a link arm mounted on the carousel pivot about a second axis of rotation by a second joint; and an arm boom pivotably mounted on the link arm about a third axis a third joint. The link arm has two mechanically separate pivot coupling rods designed for positioning the third joint in the working space of the robot arm. The first pivot coupling rod is pivotably mounted on the carousel by a first base bearing and the arm boom is mounted on the first pivot coupling rod by a first top bearing. The second pivot coupling rod is pivotably mounted on the carousel by a second base bearing and the arm boom is mounted on the second pivot coupling rod by a second top bearing.

  • Patent number: 12172277
    Abstract: A device for driving fastening elements into a substrate, having a combustion chamber in which a fuel can be burned for the purposes of transmitting energy to a fastening element, having a cartridge bearing which has a receiving chamber for a cartridge which contains the fuel, which receiving chamber is open in an opening direction toward the combustion chamber, having a closure which, in a closed position of the closure, closes the receiving chamber counter to the opening direction and bears against the cartridge bearing, and having a strip leadthrough, which defines a transport direction and opens into the receiving chamber, for a cartridge strip which bears the cartridge.
