Problems solved by technology

This recirculation of large volumes of cooling air will result in increased cooling costs
[0008] In addition, when a process involving heat generation such as CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) process used in the manufacture of ICs and etc. and etching process used in the manufacture of photoresist films etc. In addition to the heating problem of the source, there is also the influence of indoor heating.

Embodiment Construction

[0060] The best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. The industrial robot of the present invention is not limited to the following description and drawings insofar as it has its technical features. In the following description, a generally used motor (motor for driving an arm) is described as an example of a drive source, but of course, the drive source used in the present invention is not limited to a motor. In addition, corresponding to the description given by taking the motor as an example, the storage chamber for accommodating the driving source is referred to as a "motor storage chamber". Similarly, the portion of the storage chamber that accommodates the drive source is referred to as a "motor storage portion".

Abstract

The invention relates to an industrial robot operated in doors under a decompressed atmosphere, which can reliably and effectively cool the motor for driving the arm of the said robot. The industrial robot (1) comprises arm part (3) and storage room (4) where a driving source (6) for operating said arm part was stored, wherein the said arm part and said storage room are installed in a chamber under a decompressed atmosphere. The robot also provides a local hypothermia mechanism which cools said driving source (6) in said storage room. In addition the local cooling is perform by winding the aluminium pipe in which compressed air can circulate around the periphery of the motor for arm driving.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an industrial robot, and more particularly to an industrial robot used in a decompressed atmosphere such as liquid crystal manufacturing equipment and semiconductor manufacturing equipment. Background technique [0002] In an industrial robot installed in a room under a reduced pressure atmosphere (more specifically, under a vacuum), it is important to remove heat generated by a motor or the like mounted inside the industrial robot. [0003] As a technique for removing heat generated in an industrial robot installed in a chamber under a decompressed atmosphere (hereinafter also referred to as a "vacuum chamber" as appropriate), Patent Document 1 discloses that the cooling gas can be A cooling mechanism that circulates all parts inside an industrial robot that houses many heat-generating parts such as motors. The cooling mechanism shown in FIG. 1 of this document is described with the symbols in the same figure. The coo...
