  • Rotary leadthrough of a robot arm
    Patent number: 7549355
    Abstract: A rotary leadthrough of a robot arm, in particular of a fourth axle of a Delta robot, has a housing and a shaft, located in an axial leadthrough of the housing and supported rotatably in this housing, for connection to the robot arm. The housing has at least two openings for cleaning the axial leadthrough. The shaft at least in a portion of its length, has a diameter which is less than the diameter of the axial leadthrough in that region, so that there is a void between the shaft and the axial leadthrough.
    Type: Grant

  • Parallel manipulator having backlash-free gearnings
    Publication number: 20060182602
    Abstract: A delta robot has motor/gearing units, which are respectively assigned to an arm and which are disposed on one side each of a triangle. Each motor/gearing unit has a gearing, by virtue of material-locking and/or positive-locking connection of gearing components, is free from backlash over the whole of the motional range of the gearing, allowing virtually all aspects fundamental to the delta robot to be optimized, especially the rigidity, the control characteristics, the spatial requirement, the speed and the positioning accuracy.
