Title:
MECHANICAL WRIST MECHANISM
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS5840292
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A three-axis wrist mechanism has three independent rotational axes 14,68,82 with a point 72 of mutual intersection. A relatively stationary base member housing 12 contains one 14 of the axes; another axis 82 is disposed in a tool support member 100; and an intermediate axis 68 is disposed in an intermediate housing member 40. A plurality of gear trains provide for independent rotation of components about the three axes to permit selective positioning of a tool mounting surface 106 within a substantially hemispherical envelope. The gear trains are arranged so that an unobstructed gear passage is maintained between the stationary base member and the tool support member for accommodating hoses and/or wires used to transmit fluid and power to a tool mounted on the mounting surface of the tool support member.
