Abstract: An industrial robot manipulator including a first arm comprising a front arm part and a rear arm part. The front arm part is journalled in the rear arm part such that the front arm part is rotatable about a first axis relative to the rear arm part. Cabling extends along the front arm part and the rear arm part. A supporting device is operative to support the cabling. The supporting device includes a supporting arm arranged in the vicinity of the rear arm part and rotatably supported about a second axis and an auxiliary arm operatively connected to the front arm part. The supporting arm applies a spring pulling force on the cabling in a longitudinal direction of the cabling.

Abstract: A manipulator comprises a plurality of mutually movable arms, of which a first arm (3) is rotatably arranged around a first axis (A) and a second arm (7) is rotatably arranged around a second axis (B), cabling (12) extending along the mutually movable arms, and a supporting device (8) supporting a part of the cabling extending between the first arm and the second arm. The supporting device comprises a supporting arm (9) which, rotatable around a third axis (C), is arranged at the first arm and a first attachment (13) arranged in the outer end of the supporting arm and surrounding the cabling. The first attachment and the third axis are arranged on opposite sides of the longitudinal axis of the first arm. The supporting arm exerts a spring force directed along the cabling. The supporting device comprises an auxiliary arm (10) with a second attachment (15) arranged at the second arm.
