Benefits of technology

The invention provides a robot that can easily and reliably reduce vibration. It also includes a control device and a system for the robot.

Problems solved by technology

Because of this, complex and massive arithmetic processing is needed, and a control device having a high-performance and expensive CPU (Central Processing Unit) or the like is needed, leading to a problem of increased cost.
Moreover, since complex and massive arithmetic processing is needed, an arithmetic error is likely to occur and thus the arithmetic error causes a problem of failing to sufficiently suppress vibration.
Due to this, more complex motion can be easily performed.

Abstract

A robot includes: a base; a first arm rotatably coupled to the base about a first axis of rotation; a second arm rotatably coupled to the first arm about a second axis of rotation, the second axis of rotation being an axis perpendicular to the first axis of rotation or being an axis parallel to an axis perpendicular to the first axis of rotation; a third arm rotatably coupled to the second arm about a third axis of rotation, the third axis of rotation being an axis parallel to the second axis of rotation; a first angular velocity sensor installed to the first arm and having an angular velocity detection axis parallel to the first axis of rotation; and a second angular velocity sensor installed to the third arm and having an angular velocity detection axis parallel to the third axis of rotation.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This is a continuation patent application of U.S. application Ser. No. 14 / 014,964, filed on Aug. 30, 2013, which claims priority to Japanese Patent Application No. 2012-191462, filed on Aug. 31, 2012. Both applications are incorporated by reference herein in their entireties.BACKGROUND[0002]1. Technical Field[0003]The present invention relates to a robot, a robot control device, and a robot system.[0004]2. Related Art[0005]JP-A-2011-136395 discloses a robot including a six-axis sensor that is installed to a sixth link at a front end portion, that is, the front-most end side of the robot. The six-axis sensor detects accelerations in the directions of an X-axis, a Y-axis, and a Z-axis perpendicular to one another and accelerations about the X-axis, the Y-axis, and the Z-axis. Based on the detection results of the six-axis sensor, a vibration component of the angular velocity of each link about a desired axis is obtained, and control for sup...
