It is applicable in the field of interior design and the completion of small conditioning works. The autonomous painting robot comprises a mobile base (1) equipped with a paint tank and a pump or compressor, characterized in that the base (1) comprises a series of detectors configured to locate the base (1) and to detect obstacles, a substantially vertical lifting column (4), at the end of which a robot arm (5) is articulated and topped with a head (6) that carries a paint gun (7) connected to the pump, one or more cameras (9), and a proximity sensor (10).

A process and tool for installing and removing various kinds of wear parts used with earth working equipment. The process and tool allows the operator to remove and install the wear parts at a safe distance so that the operator is physically remote from the potential risks of the removal and installation process. The tool may be manually operated via an operator or the tool may be a semi-automated or fully automated.

The present disclosure provides a positioning tool, a robotic arm system, and a surgical system. The positioning tool includes a body, a registration tip, and a trackable element. The body is used to connect with a terminal of a robotic arm at one end and connect to the registration tip at the other end. The registration tip is used to abut a predetermined position. The trackable element is to be disposed on the body, the registration tip or the robotic arm and is used to communicate with a navigation device. The positioning tool provided in present disclosure is an integrated registration tool, which is able to be used to accomplish registrations for both the robotic arm and the object without replacements of the registration tool during the entire registration process, thereby simplifing the operation and shortening the operation time.

A lift device includes a base assembly, a turntable assembly, and a controller. The base assembly includes multiple base assembly batteries. The turntable assembly is rotatably coupled with the base assembly through a slip ring transmission. The turntable assembly includes multiple turntable assembly batteries. The controller is configured to operate the base assembly batteries to discharge electrical energy to the turntable batteries through the slip ring transmission. The slip ring transmission is configured to both (1) drive the turntable assembly to rotate relative to the base assembly and (2) to electrically and communicably couple electrical components of the base assembly with electrical components of the turntable assembly.

A lift device includes a lift apparatus, a base assembly, and a controller. The lift apparatus is configured to raise and lower a removable robotic implement assembly. The base assembly is configured to support the lift apparatus and a primary mover. The primary mover is configured to provide rotational motion to one or more wheels supported by the base to move the lift apparatus. The controller is in communication with the implement assembly and the lift apparatus. The controller is configured to adjust a position of the robotic implement assembly and the lift apparatus in response to receiving instructions to perform a task.

A lift device includes a lift apparatus and a base assembly. The lift apparatus is configured to raise and lower an implement assembly. The base assembly is configured to support the lift apparatus. The base assembly includes a deployable operator station transitionable between a deployed position and a stowed position. In the deployed position, the deployable operator station is configured to provide a seating and control arrangement for an operator. In the stowed position, the deployable operator station is substantially sealed from an external environment to limit access to the deployable operator station.

Disclosed herein is a robot gripper for manufacturing coffee beverages. The robot gripper is coupled to an end of a handling robot arm. The robot gripper includes: a rotating bracket rotatably coupled to an end of the robot arm; a first gripping unit coupled to one side of the rotating bracket, and configured to grip a cup or a cup lid; a second gripping unit coupled to the opposite side of the rotating bracket, and configured to grip a milk pitcher; air chucks coupled to both sides of the rotating bracket, respectively, and configured to drive the first and second gripping units, respectively; and a pressure head fastened to one side of the second gripping unit, and configured to couple a cup lid to the top of a cup by pressing the cup lid placed on the top of the cup.

A valve robot hand includes a driving device, a transmitting sleeve, a first return spring, a first centering sleeve configured to sleeve on a screw cap of a valve handle, a driving fork configured to couple with the valve handle, and a ring-like stopper. The driving fork is provided on an outer face of a lower end portion of the transmitting sleeve. The ring-like stopper is mounted on an inner face of the lower end portion of the transmitting sleeve. The ring-like stopper defines a first through-hole configured to sleeve on the screw cap of the valve handle. The ring-like stopper is sleeved on the first centering sleeve through the first through-hole such that the first centering sleeve is capable of moving in the transmitting sleeve along its axial direction. The first return spring is configured to exert a downward elastic force on the first centering sleeve.
