    摘要: A parallel kinematics robot includes a base and an end effector movable in relation to the base. A first actuator is attached to the base and connected to the end effector via a first kinematic chain including a first drive arm, a first rod, a first joint between the first drive arm and the first rod, and a second joint between the first rod and the end effector. A second actuator is attached to the base and connected to the end effector via a second kinematic chain including a second drive arm, a second rod, a third joint between the second drive arm and the second rod, and a fourth joint between the second rod and the end effector. A third actuator is attached to the base or to the first drive arm, and connected to the end effector via a third kinematic chain including a first gear wheel and a second gear wheel, the first and second gear wheels being journalled in bearings to the end effector and intermeshing with each other. One element of the third kinematic chain constitutes a kinematic pair with at least one element of the first kinematic chain. A kinematic chain responsible for a translational movement of the end effector is utilized as a support structure for a kinematic chain responsible for a rotational movement of the end effector.

    摘要: A parallel kinematics robot has a first drive arm and a second drive arm, the two drive arms being crossed when the robot operates within its normal work area. The drive arms thereby occupy less space in a horizontal direction compared with a situation where the two drive arms point away from each other.

    摘要: An arrangement for determining the calibration position of a robot joint where the joint has a moveable joint element and a stationary joint element, where one of the joint elements has a holding structure and the other a force providing protrusion, a robot controller, a motor connected between the robot controller and the moveable joint element and a force receiving element adapted to form a kinematic coupling with the holding structure and the force providing protrusion, where the kinematic coupling has at least two areas of contact between the structure and the force receiving element and one area of contact between the force providing protrusion and the force receiving element, the force receiving element being fastenable to the holding structure for stretching out across a gap between the two robot joint elements for receiving a force from the force providing protrusion.
