ROBOT TEACHING METHOD, ROBOT STEERING METHOD, AND AUTOMATIC OPERATION SYSTEM

摘要

PURPOSE: To automate aerial wiring operation in an electric power field and operation in a construction, a civil engineering, and a marine engineering site, etc. ;CONSTITUTION: The teaching computer 14 of a graphic work station 12 displays a crosspiece model 22, an insulator model 24, a manipulator model 26, a hand model 27, etc., and actual operation is simulated by using a joy stick 34, etc.; and its contents are recorded on a memory card 38 on the basis of the crosspiece model 22 and supplied to a control computer 48 in a site. The computer 48 finds the relative positions and attitudes of a site operation robot manipulator 46 and a crosspiece 62 on the basis of the detection signal of a position sensor 56 and puts them together with teaching data given by the memory card 38 to control the manipulator 46 and hand 47, thereby replacing the insulators 58 of the crosspiece 62.;COPYRIGHT: (C)1996,JPO
