The present disclosure relates to a container treatment system for the treatment of containers, such as bottles, in the beverage processing industry, comprising a clean room and a container treatment machine arranged therein with at least one exchangeable component, where the container treatment system comprises a robot which is arranged in the clean room and is designed to exchange said exchangeable component, and a corresponding method.

A multi-arm hanging rail type casting cleaning robot comprises a traveling device, a rotating device, a lifting device, a working arm mounting seat, and four working arms mounted on an annular rail, wherein in addition to pneumatic grippers and magnetic cranes, cleaning tools such as pneumatic air picks and plasma cutters are further provided on end effecters of the working arms. The traveling device of the present invention adopts a four-point hanging supporting mode to realize long-distance stable traveling. Large arm adjusting cylinders and small arm adjusting cylinders are used to replace servo reducing motors to adjust postures of the working arms. The four working arms can jointly and synchronously work. The two pneumatic grippers, the two magnetic cranes, and the four cleaning tools can be flexibly transformed and replaced. The needs of cleaning operations can be satisfied.

A transport arm for transporting objects comprising: an elongate beam coupled to a carriage, a first arm section movable along the elongate beam and a second arm section pivotally attached to the first arm section such that the second arm section an object engagement means for engaging an object to be transported arranged on the second arm section and an operator handle and a drive unit coupled to the first and the second arm section wherein the operator handle comprises a control means which is connected to the drive unit such that an operator by operating the control means may control the drive unit to pivot the second arm section.

A robot apparatus is provided on a stand and includes a control apparatus that controls the robot apparatus. The control apparatus calculates vibration generated on the stand based on model data of the stand and trajectory data of an operation of the robot apparatus and corrects the trajectory data based on the vibration.

A robot system includes a first robot and a second robot, and the second robot has a base, a shaft provided translationally along an axis direction of a first axis on the base, and an arm provided rotatably with respect to the shaft, and the first robot can perform work on a work object that can be carried by the second robot.

A robotic manipulator system includes a first robotic manipulator and a second robotic manipulator configured to grasp an object. The first robotic manipulator grasps the object a first time and moves the object to the second robotic manipulator. The second robotic manipulator then grasps the object and the first robotic manipulator readjusts its position relative to the object before grasping the object a second time. One or both of the robotic manipulators then move the object a new location before releasing the object at the new location.

An apparatus includes a plurality of connector track elements, each extending substantially perpendicularly from a coupling plane, wherein a particular connector track element of the plurality of connector track elements includes a distribution of at least two magnets adjacent unattached end thereof, a polarity of the magnets on the particular connector track element being selected to provide magnetic repulsion as to at least one adjacent connector track element.

A workpiece conveying apparatus for a pressing machine includes an arm unit including: a first arm; a second arm; a workpiece holding portion configured to hold a workpiece; a first arm drive mechanism; and a second arm drive mechanism. A pipe or the like arranged on an outer side of a second joint is supported at one side thereof by the first arm, and is supported at another side thereof by the second arm. When the first arm and the second arm are bent and stretched between a folded state and an extended state for workpiece conveyance, the pipe or the like is deformed utilizing a holding angle between the first arm and the second arm so that the pipe or the like is arranged so as to prevent swing of the pipe or the like about the second joint at the time of the workpiece conveyance.

The invention relates to a mobile robot having running gear and at least one robot arm mounted on the running gear, a sensor system for sensing obstacles in the surroundings of the robot and a navigation unit for laying down a route along which the running gear can be moved while avoiding the obstacles, and a control unit for the robot arm which is adapted to lay down a permissible position for the robot arm by reference to the obstacles sensed and the route.

A system includes an automated guided vehicle (AGV). A loading table is positioned on the AGV. The loading table is configured and sized to hold more than one storage container. A frame extends from the AGV. A robotic arm is mounted to the frame. In one form, the frame includes a gantry that moves relative to the rest of the AGV. Alternatively or additionally, the robotic arm is able to move relative to the gantry. By holding more than one storage container, the AGV facilitates automatic batch picking or placing of items. The gantry increases the degrees of freedom of movement of the robotic arm.
