Abstract: This rotating shaft structure comprises a first link, a second link connected to the first link, and a plurality of speed reducers positioned between the first link and the second link. At least one of a speed-reducer-side attachment hole and a first-link-side attachment hole, which are for joining the speed reducers to the first link, is larger or longer than the other.

Abstract: A fixing apparatus that fixes a robot having a robot main body mounted on a truck to an external structure in a positioning state, the truck being capable of traveling on a floor surface, the apparatus including: a first unit provided in one of the robot and the external structure; a second unit provided in the other of the robot and the external structure; a positioning mechanism that determines relative relation between the truck and the robot, and the external structure by use of the first unit and the second unit; and a lock mechanism that locks the truck and the robot, and the external structure.

Abstract: A robot operating apparatus includes a force sensor mounted on the distal end part of an arm unit and a handle supporting unit mounted on the distal end part of the arm unit via the force sensor. The handle supporting unit supports two handles, and a handle structure including the two handles has two force points where forces are applied while being gripped with both hands. The force sensor detects a resultant force of forces acting on the two force points, and transmits the same to a robot control apparatus, so that the distal end part of the arm unit moves in accordance with a direction and a magnitude of the resultant force detected by the force sensor.

Abstract: A present robot operation apparatus operates a robot including a plurality of joints, and includes an operation unit that transmits a signal corresponding to an operation by an operator to a control unit of the robot, and the operation unit is configured to be detachably attached to an attachment member fixed to an arm member of the robot arranged closer to a base than the joint closest to a tip among the plurality of joints.
