Embodiment Construction

[0042] figure 1 A manipulator system 10 is shown in FIG. 2 , which includes a laser scanner 2 in order to monitor a protected area 3 . The protection zone 3 here has a complex contour. Furthermore, a projection device including a projector 4 is provided on the manipulator system 10 . The projector 4 projects light projections 5 onto the floor. The protection zone information is thus signaled to the surroundings. In this case, the light projection 5 is larger than the protection zone 3 and marks the area including the protection zone 3 on the floor. The light projection is greatly simplified in this case so that a better association with the protection zone can be made. A person skilled in the art understands that the shape of the light projection or the degree of simplification of the protection zone to be associated is variably adapted. In this case, the protective field 3 can be dynamically adapted to the shape of the protective field during operation of the manipulator...

Abstract

The invention relates to a manipulator system, which may in particular be an unmanned transport system. The manipulator system includes a monitoring device, which is provided for monitoring a protective field of the manipulator system. Furthermore, the manipulator system includes a projection device, which is provided for projecting the protection zone information onto the surroundings of the manipulator system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a manipulator system, in particular a driverless transport system, and a method for operating the manipulator system. Background technique [0002] Robots, and in particular industrial robots, are freely programmable, program-controlled handling devices which can be used, for example, in assembly or production. In this case, the processing devices can carry out defined movements according to a predetermined path plan and process or machine workpieces. The actual mechanism of the robot may be called a manipulator. The mechanical device generally consists of a plurality of movable, interlinked joints or axes. [0003] Driverless transport systems (FTS) are often used in production operations, for example to transport components or workpieces from one workstation to the next. In this case, the driverless transport system can have its own drive and be controlled automatically. Unmanned transport systems can also be used to move...
