The bolt 34 is used when tension is applied to the belt 32 of the belt type transmission mechanism 27.

  When applying tension to the belt 32, first, a tool (not shown) is inserted between the bolt 34 and the lifting motor 28. Then, the tip of the tool is pressed against the lifting motor 28, and the lifting motor 28 is pressed in the opposite direction to the work shaft 5 by the lever principle with the bolt 34 as a fulcrum. As the elevating motor 28 moves away from the work shaft 5 in this way, the tension of the belt 32 increases. The fixing bolt 33 that fixes the elevating motor 28 to the second arm 3 is fastened to the second arm 3 with a predetermined tension applied to the belt 32.

When the rotary shaft 28 a of the elevating motor 28 rotates, this rotation is transmitted to the ball screw nut 21 via the belt type transmission mechanism 27. When the ball screw nut 21 rotates, the work shaft 5 moves upward or downward.

The inner ring 58 constitutes a part of a cross roller bearing 61 described later. The connecting member 54 is formed in an annular shape. The circular spline 57, the inner ring 58, and the connecting member 54 are coupled together by a bolt 62 so as to be integrally rotatable in a state where they are overlapped in the vertical direction. The upper end portion of the spline nut 41 described above is attached to the connecting member 54 by a plurality of mounting bolts 63.

  The cross roller bearing 61 corresponds to the “roller bearing” in the invention described in claim 3. The cross roller bearing 61 includes an inner ring 58 that constitutes a part of the output portion 47 described above, an outer ring 64 positioned on the outer peripheral side of the inner ring 58, and a roller 65 positioned between the inner ring 58 and the outer ring 64. And. The inner ring 58, the roller 65, and the outer ring 64 are arranged in this order toward the outside in the radial direction.

That is, the outer peripheral side of the speed reducer 43 is rotatably supported by the head body 11 via the cross roller bearing 61. For this reason, the spline nut 41 supports the lower part of the work shaft 5 rotatably in cooperation with the output part 47 of the speed reducer 43.
In this embodiment, the above-described spline nut support portion 11b constitutes the “support portion for supporting the spline nut” according to the invention of claim 4.

The belt-type transmission mechanism 44 of the rotational direction drive device 42 is disposed below the belt-type transmission mechanism 27 of the axial direction drive device 22 described above, and is accommodated in the lower part of the second arm 3.

  The rotation motor 45 is superposed on the lower surface of the second arm 3 in a state where the axial direction is parallel to the axis C3 of the work shaft 5, and is fixed by a plurality of fixing bolts 74 (see FIG. 2). . As shown in FIG. 1, the rotation motor 45 is positioned between the work shaft 5 and the center in the longitudinal direction of the second arm 3. That is, the rotation motor 45 is provided at a position facing the lifting motor 28 across the second arm 3.

  As shown in FIG. 3, a bolt 75 is screwed in the vicinity of the rotation motor 45 in the first wall portion 12 of the second arm 3 and between the rotation motor 45 and the work shaft 5. It is. The bolt 75 is used when tension is applied to the belt 73 of the belt type transmission mechanism 44. The method for applying tension to the belt 73 is the same as that for applying tension to the belt 32 of the axial drive device 22. The fixing bolt 74 that fixes the rotation motor 45 to the second arm 3 is fastened to the second arm 3 with a predetermined tension applied to the belt 73.

  When the rotation shaft 45 a of the rotation motor 45 rotates, this rotation is transmitted to the cylindrical shaft 51 of the speed reducer 43 via the belt type transmission mechanism 44. When the cylindrical shaft 51 rotates, the output portion 47 of the speed reducer 43 is decelerated and rotated, and the spline nut 41 rotates integrally with the output portion 47. When the spline nut 41 rotates, the work shaft 5 rotates.

The driven pulley 71, the speed reducer 43, and the spline nut 41 are provided in this order. In the horizontal articulated robot 1, one end side where the working portion 18 of the working shaft 5 is located is rotatably supported by the head body 11 via the spline nut 41 and the output portion 47 of the speed reducer 43. The spline nut 41 is disposed at the lowest position of the rotational direction driving device 42, in other words, the position closest to the working unit 18 in the rotational direction driving device 42.
For this reason, according to this embodiment, since the distance between the working part 18 of the work shaft 5 and the spline nut 41 can be shortened, a horizontal articulated robot with high support rigidity of the work shaft 5 is provided. be able to.

  The ball screw nut 21 according to this embodiment is disposed on the other end side of the work shaft 5 with respect to the driven pulley 30 of the axial drive device 22. For this reason, the ball screw nut 21 is provided at a position farthest from the spline nut 41 in the axial drive device 22. Each of the ball screw nut 21 and the spline nut 41 supports the work shaft 5 in a rotatable manner. That is, according to this embodiment, since the interval between these two members that support the work shaft 5 is increased, it is possible to provide a horizontal articulated robot with higher support rigidity of the work shaft 5. .

The outer peripheral side of the speed reducer 43 according to this embodiment is rotatably supported by the head body 11 via a cross roller bearing 61. Further, the speed reducer 43, the roller 65 of the cross roller bearing 61, and the outer ring 64 of the cross roller bearing 61 are arranged in this order toward the outside in the radial direction. For this reason, since the reduction gear 43 and the cross roller bearing 61 are located inside and outside in the radial direction, the reduction gear 43 is supported by the second arm 3 by a compact support structure in the axial direction.
Further, since the output portion 47 of the speed reducer 43 is located on the outer peripheral side of the input portion 46 and the outer peripheral side of the output portion 47 is supported by the head body 11 via the cross roller bearing 61, the speed reducer 43 is also arranged in the axial direction. It can be formed compactly, and the rigidity of the portion that supports the lower portion of the work shaft 5 is further increased.

Further, since the cross roller bearing 61 is positioned on the outer peripheral side of the speed reducer 43 and the outer ring 64 of the cross roller bearing 61 is attached to the head body 11, the speed reducer 43 is secondly supported by a support structure having a wide radial support width. The arm 3 is supported.
Therefore, according to this embodiment, since the speed reducer 43 is supported by the support structure having a wide support width along the head main body 11, it is possible to further increase the support rigidity of the work shaft 5. An articulated robot can be provided.

The first wall portion 12 has a support portion (spline nut support portion 11b) for supporting the spline nut 41, and the second wall portion 13 is a support portion (ball screw nut support portion for supporting the ball screw nut 21). 11a).

  The head main body 11 configured in this manner has higher rigidity than an assembly type head main body formed by combining a plurality of members. Since the spline nut 41 and the ball screw nut 21 are supported by the head body 11 having an integral structure having high rigidity, the support rigidity of these members is compared to the case where these members are supported by the assembly-type head body. Is relatively high. As a result, according to this embodiment, it is possible to provide a horizontal articulated robot that can firmly support the work shaft 5.

The work shaft 5 according to this embodiment penetrates both the first wall portion 12 and the second wall portion 13 of the second arm 3.
For this reason, since the spline nut 41 is supported on the first wall portion 12 and the ball screw nut 21 is supported on the second wall portion 13 from the periphery thereof, the support rigidity of the work shaft 5 is further increased. improves.
