A robot includes a base rotatable about a first robot axis, a first drive, a pivot arm pivotally connected to the base about a second robot axis, an end effector adapted to be moved by pivoting the pivot arm, and an end effector orientation determining linkage kinematically arranged between the base and the end effector. A first drive linkage for pivoting the pivot arm includes a first crank pivotally connected to the base about a first pivot axis and a first link connecting the first crank and the pivot arm. The first drive is adapted for pivoting the first crank. The end effector is pivotally connected to a support arm driven by a second drive linkage around a fourth robot axis, wherein the end effector orientation determining linkage is adapted to orient the end effector about the fourth robot axis.

A robot includes a first link, a second link aligned with the first link along a rotation axis and extending away from the rotation axis, and an actuator accommodated in the first link to rotate the second link around the rotation axis with respect to the first link. The second link includes a first sub-link and a second sub-link that sandwich the actuator along the rotation axis, the first sub-link is attached to the actuator, and the second sub-link is attached to the first sub-link in a state where the second sub-link is not constrained from the first link in a direction crossing the rotation axis.

A robot includes a first link, a second link aligned with the first link along a rotation axis and extending away from the rotation axis, an access cover configured to cover an access opening provided in the first link, and a check cover configured to cover a check opening provided in the first link. The access opening allows the motor to be taken in and out of the first link from a first direction along the rotation axis, and the check opening allows the motor to be visually recognized from a second direction crossing the rotation axis.

A robot includes a link, and an actuator configured to rotate the link around a rotation axis. The link includes a connecting section connected to the actuator, a link base section crossing the rotation axis to extend from the connecting section, and a protruding section protruding from the link base section at a position away from each of the connecting section and an end portion of the link base section between the connecting section and the end portion of the link base section.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a robot. The robot arm link includes a first arm link; a hollow shaft extending along a first axis thereof and coupled to the first arm link; a first stage reduction assembly coupled to a power source of the robot; and a second stage reduction assembly comprising: an input coupled to an output of the first stage reduction assembly and adapted to rotate about a second axis offset from the first axis; and an output coaxially arranged on a periphery of the hollow shaft and adapted to engage with the input to cause a rotation of the first arm link via the hollow shaft.

A module robot includes a first link, a second link movably linked to the first link, and a fluid pressure cylinder configured to move the first link and the second link relative to each other, wherein the first link has a cylinder block in which a cylinder chamber of the fluid pressure cylinder is formed.

An automated carrier system is disclosed for moving objects to be processed. The automated carrier system includes a base structure of a carrier on which an object may be supported, and at least two wheels mounted to at least two motors to provide at least two wheel assemblies, the at least two wheel assemblies being pivotally supported on the base structure for pivoting movement from a first position to a second position to effect a change in direction of movement of the carrier.

An automated carrier system is disclosed for moving objects to be processed. The automated carrier system includes a discontinuous plurality of track sections on which an automated carrier may be directed to move, and the automated carrier includes a base structure on which an object may be supported, and at least two wheels assemblies being pivotally supported on the base structure for pivoting movement from a first position to a second position to effect a change in direction of movement of the carrier.

A conveying device includes a first link that includes a first connecting part, a second connecting part, and a first holder part located opposite the second connecting part with respect to the first connecting part, a second link that includes a third connecting part rotatably connected with the first connecting part, and operates to rotate the third connecting part about a first reference point, a third link that includes a fourth connecting part rotatably connected with the second connecting part and operates to rotate the fourth connecting part about a second reference point, and a first drive that operates the links. The links move the first holder part between a first point and a second point opposite each other with respect to the first reference point so that the first holder part approaches the first reference point in association with operation of the second link.
