Problems solved by technology

[0006] A significant disadvantage of the early warning systems known from the prior art is that during operation the robot and the person often approach, in which case accidents can only be avoided by the intervention of the safety mechanism of the robot
Here the robot comes to a standstill, causing it to be delayed in the current work process

Embodiment Construction

[0030] figure 1 A robot system 80 is shown with a first robot 10 which has a movable manipulator and is arranged in a workspace 20 . Within the area of ​​the workspace 20 , the first conveyed object 15 and the second conveyed object 17 are guided along the conveying direction 13 to the first robot 10 . The first robot 10 is designed to grasp each transport object 15 , 17 by means of the manipulator 12 and transfer it to the storage 23 in a pivoting motion. Here, the first robot 10 and the storage unit 23 are accommodated in the workspace 20 . The working space 20 is divided into a plurality of substantially rectangular working sections 24 , which adjoin one another along a separation line 28 . The working section 24 is a substantially cuboid-shaped space section, not shown in detail, which is correspondingly delimited on the underside by the floor 22 of the working space. A floor section 26 is correspondingly assigned to each workspace section 24 , wherein the floor sectio...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for warning a person in a working area (20) about at least one first robot (10), and a robot system (80) comprising the at least one first robot (10). In one step (110) of the method according to the invention, the movement (18) of the robot (10) in a future working interval (50) is predicted. In additional method steps (120, 130), it is determined whether a working area segment (24) will be passed over by the robot (10) in a first or second time period (52, 54). A first or second visual warning (62, 64) is emitted in accordance with when the working area segment (24) will be passed over. The visual warnings (62, 64) are respectively emitted on a floor segment (26) that is assigned to a respective working area segment (24).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a robot system and a method for warning of persons who remain within the range of the robot system during operation. Furthermore, the invention also relates to a computer program suitable for operating a robot system in the sense of the early warning method according to the invention. Background technique [0002] From JP 2006 / 285635 A a self-propelled robot is known which can move along a path and in this case shows a section of the path taken by persons in the surroundings. For this purpose, a luminous element is arranged on the bottom surface, which is coupled to the receiving device. The self-propelled robot has a light controller, which switches on the light located on the bottom and thus illuminates the section of the path taken by the robot. In this case, the bottom-mounted illuminants essentially form a chain. [0003] WO 2009 / 0633181 A1 discloses a mobile robot which is designed to indicate the danger zone surroundi...
