摘要： An alignment device has a support base attached to a conveying device, and a mounting plate to which a gripping member is attached, and the mounting plate is transferably abutted on a fastening holder that is fixed to the support base. A movable ring fixed to the mounting plate has a sliding part that is transferably engaged with the fastening holder. A first holding mechanism arranged between the fastening holder and the mounting plate locks the mounting plate to the fastening holder. A second holding mechanism provided between the fastening holder and the movable ring cancels a first-direction force of the mounting plate.

摘要： A robotic tool changer includes master and tool assemblies that are coupled by urging a plurality of rolling members contained in openings in the master assembly into contact with a bearing race contained in the tool assembly. Accumulations of debris in and around the contact points between the rolling members and bearing race are permitted to escape via a series of debris passages formed between the rolling members and the openings when the master and tool assemblies are coupled.

摘要： A gripper for a robot has a gripper mechanism with a jaw motion input, and a motor speed reducer combination including a speed reducer and a motor. The speed reducer has a motion output. The gripper mechanism has a first pattern of mounting features arranged about the jaw motion input. The speed reducer has a second pattern of mounting features arranged about the motion output. The first pattern of mounting features and the second pattern of mounting features are arranged so that the motor reducer combination may be mounted to the gripper mechanism in at least four indexed positions about the motion output and the jaw motion input.

摘要： Robots capable of accommodating dynamic replacement of end effectors load and run software that allows the end effector to be operated without change to the main control program. The driver may be dynamically linked and run during program execution when the corresponding end effector is detected. Typically, the robot controller will store a library of drivers, and load the appropriate driver when a new end effector is detected.
