  • Patent number: 9381644
    Abstract: A robot includes: a stage unit; a rotation base connected to the stage unit in a rotatable manner around a predetermined rotating axis; an arm unit connected to the rotation base and having a base end rotatable around a first rotation axis that is substantially orthogonal to the rotating axis; a first attachment unit provided to the rotation base, arranged in an outside, in a rotation radius direction, of the rotation base and nearer to the stage unit than the first rotation axis, and formed so that one part of a balancer is attached thereto; and a second attachment unit provided to the arm unit and formed so that another part of the balancer is attached thereto.

  • Publication number: 20130025399
    Abstract: A robot according to an aspect of an embodiment includes: an articulated arm; and a speed reducer that is provided in a joint of the articulated arm. The articulated arm performs a multi-axis operation. The speed reducer has rigidity for which an acquisition value obtained by acquiring a deflection amount of a predetermined representative position at the articulated arm for each dimension of a three-dimensional coordinate system is not more than a threshold corresponding to a target precision of the articulated arm.
