Patent number: 11970098Abstract: The center console structure for a vehicle includes a console body; an armrest; and a power supply section that wirelessly transmits electric power to the mobile terminal via a placement surface on which the mobile terminal is placed. The console body includes a top plate section serving as an upper surface; a terminal accommodation section having the placement surface and arranged on a vehicle rear side of the top plate section and on a vehicle lower side of the armrest; and a right and left pair of console side surface sections arranged to oppose each other in a vehicle width direction with the terminal accommodation section being interposed therebetween.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2021Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: MAZDA MOTOR CORPORATIONInventors: Naohiro Sera, Osamu Ueda, Narumi Nahara, Kouji Furukawa, Shohei Kuroda, Hiroshi Ohno

Patent number: 11433531Abstract: A robot system includes a robot including leading end, base, and multi-articular arm, and circuitry that controls the atm to move the end based on motion control program specifying transition over time of target position and posture of the end, the transition including correction target portion starting and ending in the transition; controls the arm to move the end in response to guided manipulation applying external force to the robot while the circuitry controls the arm; obtains relative command information based on the target position and posture at start of the correction portion and specifying the target position and posture at points in the correction portion including start and end in the correction portion; and controls the arm to move the end from the position and posture based on the information, beginning at time when movement of the arm controlled by the circuitry in response to the manipulation has ended.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2019Date of Patent: September 6, 2022Assignee: KABUSHIKI KAISHA YASKAWA DENKIInventors: Tetsuro Izumi, Shohei Ohno, Takashi Nishimura, Tamio Nakamura

Patent number: 11192244Abstract: A robot system includes a robot, a sensor, and a processor. The sensor is configured to detect an external force acting on the robot. The processor is configured to move the robot in a forward direction such that a representative point of the robot moves along a motion track in the forward direction; move the robot in a reverse direction such that the representative point moves along the motion track in the reverse direction opposite to the forward direction when the external force satisfies a first condition which includes a condition that the external force is larger than a first threshold force; and move the robot to reduce the external force when the external force satisfies a second condition which includes a condition that the external force is larger than a second threshold force even after the robot has been moved in the reverse direction.Type: GrantFiled: October 15, 2018Date of Patent: December 7, 2021Assignee: KABUSHIKI KAISHA YASKAWA DENKIInventors: Tamio Nakamura, Tetsuro Izumi, Takashi Nishimura, Shohei Ohno

Publication number: 20210221009Abstract: A manipulation unit includes a body, a tool holder, and a plurality of manipulated switches. The body has a first end, a second end opposite to the first end, and a cylindrical circumferential outer surface that extends from the first end to the second end and which is configured to be held to perform direct teaching to a robot. The first end is attachable to a leading end of a robot arm of the robot. The tool holder is connected to the second end and configured to hold a tool. The plurality of manipulated switches are configured to send signal to a robot controller to perform the direct teaching. The plurality of manipulated switches are provided on the body to be aligned along a circumferential direction of the cylindrical circumferential outer surface so that the direct teaching is performed with a hand which holds the cylindrical circumferential outer surface.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 8, 2021Publication date: July 22, 2021Applicant: KABUSHIKI KAISHA YASKAWA DENKIInventors: Yuichi SATO, Tamio NAKAMURA, Tetsuro IZUMI, Takashi NISHIMURA, Shohei OHNO

Patent number: 11007655Abstract: A manipulation unit includes a body, a tool holder, and a manipulated portion. The body has a first end, a second end opposite to the first end, and a peripheral surface connecting the first end and the second end. The first end is attachable to a robot arm. The tool holder is connected to the second end and configured to hold a tool. The manipulated portion is provided on the peripheral surface. The manipulated portion includes a manipulation surface and a surrounding portion. The robot arm is to be operated via the manipulation surface. The surrounding portion surrounds the manipulation surface such that the manipulation surface is recessed from the surrounding portion.Type: GrantFiled: September 7, 2018Date of Patent: May 18, 2021Assignee: KABUSHIKI KAISHA YASKAWA DENKIInventors: Yuichi Sato, Tamio Nakamura, Tetsuro Izumi, Takashi Nishimura, Shohei Ohno
