A method for installing the forearm and wrist structure of a low-load industrial robot as described in claim 7, characterized in that, Includes the following steps: 1) Insert the five-axis first-stage reduction mechanism (501) into the five-axis motor mounting hole (002c) of the forearm rear end housing at the rear end of the forearm rear end housing, and insert the gear shaft (012) into the connecting shaft hole (002a) of the forearm rear end housing at the front end of the forearm rear end housing and assemble it with the five-axis first-stage reduction mechanism (501); 2) Insert the six-axis first-stage reduction mechanism (601) into the six-axis motor mounting hole (002b) of the forearm rear end housing from the front end of the forearm rear end housing; 3) Install the first bearing in the bearing inner hole (002f) of the front end housing of the forearm, and install a round shim, an adjusting shim, and a J5 hypoid driven gear (015) on the first bearing; insert the spline end of the J62 bevel gear (016) from the lower end of the J5 hypoid driven gear (015) into the bearing inner hole (002f), and then install the bearing, adjusting shim, J6 hypoid driven gear (008), and nut in sequence at the spline end of the J62 bevel gear (016); 4) Install the five-axis second-stage reduction mechanism (502) and the J5 hypoid drive gear (014) into the front end housing of the forearm; one end of the five-axis second-stage reduction mechanism (502) is connected to the gear shaft (012) for transmission; the other end of the five-axis second-stage reduction mechanism (502) is connected to the J5 hypoid drive gear (014) through the J5 drive shaft gear (013); the J5 hypoid drive gear (014) meshes with the J5 hypoid driven gear (015); 5) Install the J6 hypoid drive gear (007) into the front end housing of the forearm, and connect one end of the J6 hypoid drive gear (007) to the J6 drive shaft gear (006) for transmission, and mesh the other end of the J6 hypoid drive gear (007) with the J6 hypoid driven gear (008); 6) Connect the J62 bevel driven gear (017) with the adjusting shim and bearing to form the J62 bevel driven gear assembly; then install the J62 bevel driven gear assembly into the wrist housing and make the J62 bevel driven gear (017) mesh with the J62 bevel driving gear (016), thus completing the installation of the low-load industrial robot forearm and wrist structure.

9. The installation method according to claim 8, characterized in that, All component mounting locations are sealed using O-rings.
