Abstract: There is a demand for further improving efficiency of a task of replacing the reduction gear of the robot. A jig configured to support a reduction gear connecting a first element and a second element of a robot to be enabled to perform a speed reduction operation on each other, when the second element is separated from the first element includes a fixed portion removably mounted to the first element or the second element, a movable portion rotationally or translationally movably mounted to the fixed portion, and a support mounted to the movable portion and configured to suspend and support the reduction gear in a gravity direction.

Abstract: An operation region detection device includes a dog, a support member for supporting it, and a detection switch outputting a signal based on contact or noncontact with the corresponding dog. The support member is arranged in a hollow part of a joint of a robot and attached to one of two link members of the robot rotatable relative to each other so that a center axis of the support member is substantially aligned with a rotation axis of relative rotation of the two link members. The dog is attached to the outer circumference of the support member and has a length corresponding to a predetermined detection region along a peripheral direction of the outer circumference. The detection switch is provided on the other of the two link members at a position facing the dog to detect a region to which a current position of the relative rotation belongs based on the state of output of the signal.
