Abstract

The present invention relates to a robot teaching operator capable of controlling an industrial robot. At least one detachable magnet is prepared on the case of the robot teaching operator. According to the magnet-attached robot teaching operator, a magnet is prepared on the case and is detachable from a magnetic body, thus capable of being stored or fixed so as to facilitate the usage. The teaching operator is detachable from an object or a machine since magnetic properties of the magnet attached to the teaching operator can be controlled. Moreover, a viscous member is prepared so as to be attached to a non-magnetic body and reduce the possibility of being lost.

However, in a welding workshop in a shipyard, there is a problem in that it is inconvenient to store and fix the robot teaching actuator because the robot is located at a remote place from the controller in a narrow space operation.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a magnetically attached robot teaching actuator capable of being attached to and detached from a ferromagnetic body.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a magnetically attached robot teaching actuator capable of interrupting magnetism.

It is still another object of the present invention to provide a magnetically attached robot teaching actuator capable of being detachably attached to a non-magnetic body.

In order to achieve the above object, the robot teaching actuator for controlling the industrial robot according to the present invention is characterized in that it includes at least one or more magnets for facilitating attachment and detachment on the case of the teaching actuator.

In the magnetically-equipped robot teaching actuator according to the present invention, a switch is provided on one side of the magnet so as to intermit the magnetic force.

In the magnetically-equipped robot teaching actuator according to the present invention, the case further includes an adhesive member so as to be attachable to a non-magnetic body.

In the magnetically-equipped robot teaching actuator according to the present invention, a winder is provided on the case so that the adhesive member can be taken in and out.

As described above, according to the magnetically-equipped robot teaching actuator according to the present invention, since a magnet is provided on a case and can be detachably attached to a magnetic body, it can be stored and fixed, thereby providing ease of use.

Further, according to the magnetically-equipped robot teaching actuator according to the present invention, the magnetism of the magnet attached to the teaching manipulator can be interrupted, and the teaching manipulator can be easily attached and detached from an object or a machine.

Further, according to the magnetically-equipped robot teaching actuator according to the present invention, since the adhesive member is provided, it can be attached to and detached from the non-magnetic body, thereby reducing loss.

2 is a configuration diagram of a magnetically attached robot teaching actuator according to a second embodiment of the present invention;
3 is a configuration diagram of a magnetically attached robot teaching actuator according to a third embodiment of the present invention;
4 is a configuration diagram of a magnetically attached robot teaching operation device according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention;

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiments.

These and other objects and novel features of the present invention will become more apparent from the description of the present specification and the accompanying drawings.

Fig. 1 is a configuration diagram of a magnetically-equipped robot teaching actuator according to a first embodiment of the present invention, Fig. 2 is a configuration diagram of a magnetically-equipped robot teaching actuator according to a second embodiment of the present invention, Fig. 4 is a configuration diagram of a magnetically-equipped robot teaching actuator according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention. Fig.

As shown in Fig. 1, at least one or more magnets 10 are provided on the case 1 of the teaching manipulator to facilitate detachment and attachment.

The magnet 10 is formed in a case 1 of the teaching manipulator, specifically, a lower case, and is housed in the holder. Since the holder is formed of a shielding material, malfunction of the teaching operation device due to the magnetism of the magnet 10 is prevented. The magnet 10 is formed to correspond to the weight of the teaching manipulator so that the teaching manipulator can be attached to or detached from the magnetic body, and serves to provide convenience in storage and use. The shape, position, and number of the magnets 10 are not limited to the structure shown in Fig.

As a modification of the present invention, referring to FIG. 2, a switch 12 may be additionally provided at one side of the magnet so that magnetism can be interrupted.

As described above, since the switch 12 is further provided, it is possible to manipulate the magnetism from the regular spin arrangement to the irregular spin arrangement, and from the irregular spin arrangement to the regular spin arrangement. And the switch of the teaching operation device attached thereto is turned off so that it can be easily detached without any trouble.

As another modification of the present invention, referring to FIG. 3, the case may further include an adhesive member 20 so as to be attachable to the nonmagnetic body.

The adhesive member 20 is made of a Velcro tape, and male and female are bonded to one side and the other side of the case using one of bonding methods such as adhesive, thermal bonding, ultrasonic bonding, and dot bonding, As shown in Fig. Since the adhesive member 20 is provided as described above, the non-magnetic material such as aluminum or an object including copper can be fixed by attaching the teaching actuator.

As another modification of the present invention, referring to FIG. 4, a winder 30 may be further provided on the case so that the adhesive member 20 can be taken in and out.

The winder (30) is interposed inside the case (1) and winds the adhesive member (20).

Since the coiler 30 is interposed as described above, it can be used for both the ferromagnetic material and the non-magnetic material. When the teaching operation device is attached to the ferromagnetic material, it is attached. When the non-magnetic material is attached, the magnet 10 is pulled After pulling the adhesive member 20 from the winder 30, the adhesive member 20 is wound and fixed on the object to be fixed. The winder 30 winds the adhesive member 20 and can be easily fixed regardless of the size of the non-magnetic body.

As described above, the magnetically-equipped robot teaching manipulator is provided with a magnet on the case so that it can be attached to and detached from the magnetic body, so that it can be stored and fixed, thereby providing ease of use, and can control the magnetism of the magnet attached to the teaching manipulator, It is possible to prevent the malfunction damage of the battery. Further, since the adhesive member is provided, it is possible to attach and detach to the non-magnetic body, thereby reducing loss.

It will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims and their equivalents. Of course, such modifications are within the scope of the claims.
