  • Patent number: 5937143
    Abstract: The invention is a robot teaching pendant containing a display device with graphic display capabilities. Display data is displayed on the graphic display and includes the movement of a robot and taught points. This display data is generated by a display data generation unit based on robot programs stored in data storage unit by buffering the data from a robot controller. This display data may also include representative images of the robot tool along with its coordinates in a tool coordinate system and the taught points in a user or world coordinate system. Thus, the action of the robot can be visually recognized with ease, and the robot can be taught easily and accurately.

  • Patent number: 5920678
    Abstract: While jog feeding, if the robot can be moved safely without interference or collision with others, the data on jog feeding path is accumulated in an external memory device. And a safe region in which the robot can move without interference or collision can make from some accumulated paths in the robot axial space and stored. When start point and end point for the desired path are specified, one path, which links the start point and the end point and is composed of such safe regions, is found. Then the robot positions are taught as positions corresponding to the path.

  • Patent number: 5872894
    Abstract: A robot control method capable of eliminating any influence of motion in a preceding path section to assure an accurate path movement with respect to a portion of a path section toward an end point. In a motion statement, a path-assurance section is previously designated in terms of length, time or path-assurance ratio for a moving path ?2!.fwdarw.?3!. A path motion plan EFGH for the moving path ?2!.fwdarw.?3! is created so that a path section represented by DHGK is the path-assurance section designated in the motion statement, assuming that D represents a terminal point of the motion along the moving path ?1!.fwdarw.?2!. Consequently, an influence of motion of the moving path ?1!.fwdarw.?2! is not exerted on the motion after a point in time represented by D or K, to assure a movement on the path ?2!.fwdarw.?3! in the path-assurance section.

  • Patent number: 5748854
    Abstract: A robot position teaching system and method including a robot controller to control a robot, a visual sensor to measure a three-dimensional position, an image processing device to measure a position by processing and analyzing an image recognized by the visual sensor, and a position teaching unit provided with a grasping portion having a size which can be grasped by a hand of an operator, and an index which can visually be recognized by the visual sensor, and is disposed at a distal end of a rod-type body extending from the grasping portion. The operator turns on a moving switch of the position teaching unit such that the robot controller moves the robot toward a position of the index recognized by a camera. When an approach teaching switch of the position teaching unit is turned on after movement of the robot is stopped, data of a current position of the index recognized by the camera is stored as teaching position data.

  • Patent number: 5668930
    Abstract: An off-line data teaching method for a robot in which a desired posture of the robot is maintained in passing the bending portion of the operation line by preparing off-line teaching data for an operation line on a workpiece which is subjected to an operation of a robot, and by performing an insertion of a circular arc. The indicators (A, L and C) representing air-cut points, terminal point of a linear segment, and intermediate and terminal points of a circular arc segment are assigned to each coordinate data of the operation line consisting of linear segments and circular arc segments on a plane. The circular arc J(1)i+1 of small radius is inserted by defining the new teaching points L(1)i+1, C"(1)i+1 and C'(1)i+1 and disqualify the bending point Li+1. The coordinate data after insertion of the circular arc and the indicators are used to determine the position and posture of the robot.

  • Patent number: 5230391
    Abstract: A weigher-conveyor has a conveyor which is for transporting an object and is supported by a weighing device such that the weight of the object on the conveyor can be measured while it is being transported. A detector is disposed near the downstream end of the conveyor and, when the presence of an object on the conveyor is detected, a control unit determines whether weight signals from the weigher are already stable. If they are stable, the conveyor continues to be driven and a weight value indicated by the stabilized weight signals is outputted. If they are still unstable, the conveyor is stopped until the weight signals stabilize. A weight value indicated by the stabilized weight signals is outputted in this situation.

  • Patent number: 5174400
    Abstract: In the weighing apparatus, a plurality of weighing sections are connected to a main unit having a display section, and weight data from one of the weighing sections are indicated by the display section. Each weighing section has an instability detection section for detecting the instability of a weight signal. The main unit has a section by which the weight data from the weighing section whose weight signal is instable are selected on the basis of a signal from the instability detection section.
