In a conventional mechanical arm, when a harmonic gear reducer is adopted, because the harmonic gear reducer has a hollow shaft, routing is often performed through the hollow shaft. This is why the conventional option often only allows the use of a harmonic gear reducer as the drive motor for the robot arm.
In the present embodiment, the planetary gear reducer used has no hollow shaft structure, and therefore, the conductive slip ring 70 and other structures are provided to solve the problem of wiring, so that the planetary gear reducer can be applied to a robot arm.

One end of the stationary part 52 is electrically connected to the rotating part 51 through the conductive slip ring 70, and remains stationary relative to the base motor 11 since the stationary part 52 does not participate in the rotation.

The rotating portion 51 and the stationary portion 52 are both relative to the corresponding base joint 10 or the rotating joint 20. Taking the base joint 10 as an example, the rotating portion 51 in the base joint 10 rotates relative to the base joint 10, and the stationary portion 52 in the base joint 10 is stationary relative to the base joint 10. Further, taking the rotary joint 20 as an example, the rotary part 51 in the rotary joint 20 rotates relative to the rotary joint 20, and the stationary part 52 in the rotary joint 20 is stationary relative to the rotary joint 20.
