The invention relates to a novel collaborative robot joint module. The novel collaborative robot joint module comprises a joint body, a harmonic reducer, a motor, a brake, a brake mounting seat, an input end encoder, an output end encoder and a driver, wherein the harmonic reducer is arranged in the first end of the joint body and provided with an input shaft and an output shaft; the input shaft is sleeved at the outer side of the output shaft; and the output shaft penetrates through the harmonic reducer, a connecting disc is arranged at the first end of the output shaft, and the second end of the output shaft extends out of the second end of the input shaft. The brake is fixed through the brake mounting seat, a rotor of the brake is located at the side close to the motor, so that the brake is inversely installed, an input bearing is designed in the brake, the design length of the input shaft of the harmonic reducer is greatly shortened, the rigidity of the input shaft is improved, meanwhile, the diameter of an inner hole of the harmonic reducer is increased, and wire passing is facilitated.
