Embodiment Construction

[0137] It should be understood that the embodiments described below are by no means limiting. In particular, variants of the invention are conceivable comprising only a selection of the features described below, but not other features described, as long as this selection of features is sufficient to confer a technical advantage or to distinguish the invention from the prior art. The selection includes at least one feature (preferably a functional feature) that has no structural details or only a part of the structural details that alone are sufficient to confer a technical advantage or to distinguish the invention from the prior art.

[0138] In particular, all variants and embodiments described can be combined, as long as such a combination is not excluded from a technical point of view.

[0139] In the figures, elements common to several figures are provided with the same reference numerals.

[0140] figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a prior art embodiment of a robot equi...

Abstract

The invention relates to a robot (300) comprising capacitive sensing electrodes (118), at least one electrical biasing means (1202) for biasing the measurement electrodes (118) to a first alternatingelectric potential, different from a general ground potential (MG), at a frequency termed the working frequency. The robot is characterized in that, for at least one sub-portion termed the equipped sub-portion (104, 114), the outer wall (104, 114) of which is not electrically conductive, said at least one biasing means (1202) is further arranged to keep the electrical members (1042,1142) of said equipped sub-portion (104,114) at an alternating electric potential (VG), termed the guard potential, that is identical or substantially identical to said first potential at said working frequency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a robot equipped with a capacitive detection device and at least one electrical component of the robot is referenced to a protection potential different from the general ground potential. [0002] The field of the invention is, without limitation, the field of robotics, in particular industrial robotics or service robotics, eg medical or domestic robots or collaborative robots (also called "cobots"). Background technique [0003] Industrial or domestic robots, especially cobots, usually comprise a body to which is fixed a functional head in the form of a tool or tool holder, allowing it to perform one or more tasks in the environment. [0004] These robots are involved in a growing number of applications, either fully autonomously or assisting a human or operator. These robots are often equipped with sensors that allow the robot to detect objects and people located in its environment to ensure the safety of the robot and nearb...
