By being stretched without any tension, the rearward movement of the rear end plate 13 is restricted.
- the balancer device 100 has a simpler structure, it is possible to prevent the rear end plate 13 from jumping out to the rear. Further, when the housing 10 is not separated, the connecting member 50 can be freely bent, and the housing 10 can be efficiently accommodated in the housing 10 to reduce the size of the housing 10.

That is, by increasing the length of the small diameter portion 122, there is an advantage that a large amount of strain allowed without breaking can be secured, and a large impact energy can be absorbed accordingly.
- the second member 152 can be configured more compactly than in the first embodiment. Since the second member 152 is a member that collides with the first member 151, it is made of an expensive material having high ductility. On the other hand, the spacer 70 is a member that does not require particular strength, and can be made of a cheaper material. Therefore, by making the second member 152 compact, there is an advantage that the cost required for the material and processing can be reduced.
- the outer diameter dimension of the spacer 70 is set small in order to reduce the weight of the spacer 70, the amount of protrusion of the second member 152 radially outward from the outer peripheral surface of the spacer 70 increases, but the tapered surface 152a

Abstract
Description
したがって、ハウジングが破断した場合であっても、端板の飛び出しを防止することが望まれている。
本実施形態に係るバランサ装置100は、図1に示されるように、例えば、天井に吊り下げた状態に設置される天吊り型ロボット1に装着される。
ハウジング10は、円筒状の胴体部11と、胴体部11の中心軸(軸)OL1方向の両端を閉塞する平板状の前端板12および後端板13とを備えている。
第1連結片51は、後端板13の貫通孔13hの内径よりも小さい外径を有する円筒状の本体部51aと、本体部51aの一端の外周面から径方向外方に突出し、貫通孔13hの内径よりも大きい外径を有する鍔状の取付座面51bとを備えている。また、第1連結片51は、本体部51aの他端の内周面から径方向内方に突出する鍔状のストッパ51cを備えている。
すなわち、連結部材50は、中心軸OL1方向に、ロッド20のストロークよりも大きい遊びを伴って、可動部材30と後端板13とを連結している。
これにより、ハウジング10は、第1取付軸線J11回りに回転可能に、旋回胴3に取り付けられる。
本実施形態に係るバランサ装置100を装着する天吊り型ロボット1においては、例えば、図1に示されるように、アーム4を前方に延ばした状態とすると、アーム4には、重力によって第2軸線J2回りに向きGFの重力負荷モーメントが作用する。
この場合には、図4に示されるように、後端板13と可動部材30との間の距離が増大するので、ストッパ51cと突き当て部52bとが突き当たり、後端板13の後方へのそれ以上の移動が規制される。これにより、後端板13が後方に飛び出すことを防止することができる。
したがって、第1連結片51および第2連結片52は、常に圧縮コイルバネ40の弾発力を受けているハウジング10よりも劣化しにくいため、ハウジング10が劣化によって破断したとしても、後端板13の飛び出しを確実に防止することができる。
すなわち、突き当て部52bが底板52cに近づくため、第2連結片52の軸方向の寸法を小さく抑えることができるという利点がある。
すなわち、連結部材50をハウジング10の外部から着脱することができ、バランサ装置100の組立作業および分解作業の作業性を向上することができる。
この場合には、第1連結片51を後端板13に固定するためのボルト15が不要となり、部品点数と組立工数を削減することができる。
この場合には、第2連結片52は、突き当て部52bが後端板13の貫通孔13hの内径よりも大きい外径を有しており、本体部52aを貫通孔13hの外側から挿入した状態で、可動部材30に固定されればよい。これにより、後端板13をより簡易な形状にすることができる。
この場合には、第2連結片52の構造をより簡易なものとすることができるという利点がある。
この場合、例えば、図7に示されるように、連結部材50の一端がループ状になっており、そのループの内側に通されたボルト17を後端板13に締結することにより、連結部材50の一端をボルト17のボルト頭と後端板13との間に挟んで固定する。同様に、連結部材50の他端を可動部材30に固定し、連結部材50の後端板13と可動部材30との間に掛け渡される部分の長さを、ロッド20の最大ストロークよりも若干長く設定する。
本実施形態に係るバランサ装置200によれば、後端板13と胴体部11とが分離した場合には、第1部材151のストッパ51cと第2部材152の突き当て部52bとが衝突することにより、後端板13の後方への飛び出しが規制される。この場合に、衝突によって発生する衝撃力は、ロッド120、第1部材151および第2部材152によって受け止められるが、他の部分よりも小さい横断面積を有するロッド120の小径部122が最も大きく変形する。
また、ロッド120の先端に雄ねじ部124を設け、締結具として雄ねじ部124に締結されるナット125を例示したが、これに代えて、ロッド120の先端に雌ねじを設け、締結具としてボルトを採用してもよい。
