    摘要: A control device performs logging of information related to communication with an instrument and logging of information related to control of the logging operation. The control device includes: a first connector that connects a first network to which a control target belongs; a second connector that connects a second network to which an external instrument belongs; a control arithmetic unit that executes control arithmetic processing using data related to the control target, a communication unit that exchanges the data with the external instrument by secure communication through the second network; a first logging unit that logs information related to the secure communication performed by the communication unit; and a second logging unit that logs information related to control of a logging operation of the first logging unit.

    摘要: A joint structure includes a locking mechanism for switching a free state in which a second element is independent from a first element and capable of moving, and a locked state in which the second element is fixed to the first element. The locking mechanism includes a first member joined to the first element, a second member joined to the second element, and a flexible wire-shaped member in which one end thereof is attached to the second member and another end thereof is led out to the outside of the joint structure via a through hole provided in the first member. The joint structure enters the locked state by the wire-shaped member being pulled to bring the second member into contact with the first member, and enters the free state by the wire-shaped member being fed to separate the second member from the first member.

    摘要: A cable simulator calculates a behavior of a target corresponding to a partial cable calculated using each of parameter sets for each partial cable, and calculates a load applied to the target based on the calculated behavior. The cable simulator determines a parameter set used for calculation of a behavior having a load satisfying a constraint for each partial cable, and decides a parameter set regarding attachment of an entire cable from a set of determined parameter sets.

    摘要: A deterioration degree of a robot body is precisely evaluated. A robot control device 300 includes: a drive control unit 309 controlling operation of a robot body 200; a detection unit 310 detecting a signal used for analysis of a feature amount quantitatively indicating a deterioration degree of the robot body 200 deteriorated over time as the robot body 200 is operated; a determination unit 304 determining whether a data section of the signal includes a constant speed section equal to or greater than a given section; a normalization unit 305 normalizing a signal in a non-constant speed section when the data section of the signal does not include the constant speed section equal to or greater than the given section; an analysis unit 307 analyzing the feature amount; and an estimation unit 308 estimating a remaining life of the robot body 200 based on the feature amount.

    摘要: A plunger is movable between a first position and a second position. The plunger separates a first movable contact from a first fixed contact and separates a second movable contact from a second fixed contact at the first position. The plunger presses a first movable piece toward a first fixed terminal to make the first movable contact into contact with the first fixed contact, and presses a second movable piece toward a second fixed terminal to make the second movable contact into contact with the second fixed contact at the second position. The plunger moves from the first position to the second position by being pressed by a pressing portion of an electric plug inserted into a third insertion port.

    摘要: The present invention provides a counter unit (10) that supports, in a plurality of output devices, both a case where there is no problem in a state in which common signal terminals or power supply terminals are connected by common wiring, and a case where it is preferable to connect the common signal terminals or the power supply terminals by circuits insulated from each other. The counter unit (10) is provided with a switching unit (15) that performs switching between a non-insulated circuit (16) that connects a plurality of common signal terminals (COMA, COMB, COMC) and/or a plurality of power supply terminals (IOV, IOG) by common wiring, and an insulated circuit (17) that connects the plurality of common signal terminals and/or the plurality of power supply terminals by circuits insulated from each other.
