Application: Robot inspection system (Patent ID: US20240198534A1)
The patent filed by Seiko Epson Corp describes a robot inspection system that includes a coupling unit for a mount table with a robot, a positioning mechanism, and an inspection unit for inspecting the robot. The mount table is transported to the coupling unit by an automatic guided vehicle, and the inspection unit performs various types of inspections on the robot. The coupling unit features a recessed portion with an entry opening for the mount table, and the inspection unit is positioned around this recessed portion.
The system is designed for inspecting a scalar robot with a base, a first arm pivoting around a first axis, a second arm pivoting around a second axis, and a working head in the second arm. The inspection unit includes a calibration device for calibrating the pivot axes, which moves horizontally for calibration purposes. This patent highlights a comprehensive robot inspection system that streamlines the inspection process by incorporating automated transportation, multiple inspection types, and precise calibration mechanisms for accurate assessments of the robot's functionality.
