In the related art, the assembly structure of the robotic arm and the machine table is complex, making the disassembly and assembly of the robot difficult. It is necessary to transport the robot as a whole. In this way, it is not conducive to the maintenance and transportation of the robot. Summary of the Utility Model
[0003] The present application aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related art.
[0004] To this end, the present application provides a robot.
[0005] In view of this, the present application provides a robot, including: a machine table assembly, the machine table assembly includes a stator; an arm assembly, detachably arranged on the machine table assembly, the arm assembly includes a rotor and an arm body, the rotor is used to drive the arm body to move linearly in the first direction under the action of the stator, and the arm body includes: a swing arm, the swing arm can move up and down relative to the rotor in the second direction; a robotic arm, connected to the swing arm, the swing arm can drive the robotic arm to rotate around the first axis; an end effector, connected to the robotic arm, the robotic arm can drive the end effector to perform actions.
[0006] The robot provided by the present application includes a machine table assembly and an arm assembly. The end effector of the arm assembly is used to grasp workpieces.
[0007] The arm assembly is detachably connected to the machine table assembly. The arm assembly and the machine table assembly are two relatively independent structures. The arm assembly can be assembled on the machine table assembly and can also be detached from the machine table assembly. This setting facilitates the cleaning, maintenance and transportation of the arm assembly and the machine table assembly while ensuring the reliability of the connection between the arm assembly and the machine table assembly. That is, the arm assembly can be assembled on the machine table assembly or separated from the machine table assembly according to actual use needs. This setting simplifies the assembly structure of the robot, facilitates the installation and disassembly of the arm assembly and the machine table assembly, and is convenient for the assembly, repair and transportation of the robot.
[0008] In particular, when a component of the arm assembly is damaged, the arm assembly can be detached from the machine table assembly, and then the component of the arm assembly can be replaced, which has the advantages of convenient operation and high feasibility.
[0009] Further, the machine platform assembly includes a stator. The arm assembly includes a rotor and an arm body. The arm body includes a swing arm, a robotic arm, and an end effector. The end effector is used to perform actions. The rotor is used to drive the arm body (specifically, the workpiece grasped by the end effector of the arm body) to perform a linear motion in the first direction under the action of the stator. The end effector can perform a lifting motion relative to the machine platform assembly in the second direction under the drive of the swing arm, that is, drive the workpiece grasped by the end effector to perform a lifting motion in the second direction.
[0010] That is to say, the arm assembly can also drive the workpiece to perform a linear motion in the first direction, the arm assembly can also drive the workpiece to perform a lifting motion in the second direction, and the swing arm can drive the robotic arm to rotate around the first axis. Thus, it can be seen that the robot can drive the workpiece to move in multiple directions and multiple dimensions according to specific actual usage requirements, expanding the range of transporting the workpiece, making the range of handling the workpiece unrestricted, and improving the usage performance and market competitiveness of the product.
[0011] The machine platform assembly includes a stator, and the arm assembly includes a rotor. The stator and the rotor cooperate so that the rotor drives the arm body to perform a linear motion in the first direction under the action of the stator, that is, the rotor can drive the workpiece grasped by the arm body to perform a linear motion in the first direction. The cooperation between the stator and the rotor can effectively drive the grasped workpiece to move along a straight line at high speed and high precision, and can realize the high-speed movement of handling the workpiece, which is beneficial to improving the working cycle and working efficiency of the robot.
[0012] Further, the arm body can move in the first direction under the action of the rotor. The robotic arm can rotate around the first axis under the action of the swing arm, and the swing arm can drive the robotic arm and the end effector to perform a lifting motion in the second direction, where the first direction and the second direction are different. The end effector can perform actions under the action of the robotic arm. The rotor drives the arm body to achieve high-speed and high-precision rapid movement. The swing arm drives the robotic arm and the end effector to rotate to complete the posture adjustment of the workpiece while quickly moving the workpiece. The swing arm drives the robotic arm and the end effector to lift, that is, the swing arm drives the robotic arm and the end effector to lift and handle the workpiece. The robotic arm drives the end effector to perform actions to achieve the effect of adjusting the direction and posture of the handled workpiece.
[0013] By reasonably setting the structure of the robot, while ensuring the effective drive of the grasped workpiece to move at high speed and high precision, the posture of the workpiece can be adjusted from multiple directions and multiple angles, and the usage requirements of high-precision, high-speed, and high-repeatability work can be met.

Detailed implementation manners
[0111] In order to more clearly understand the above objects, features and advantages of the present application, the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific implementation manners. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0112] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to fully understand the present application. However, the present application may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0113] The following refers to Figures 1 to 3 Robot 10 according to some embodiments of the present application.
[0114] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, a robot 10 according to some embodiments of the present application includes a machine platform assembly 100 and an arm assembly 200.
[0115] The machine platform assembly 100 includes a stator 110.
[0116] The arm assembly 200 is detachably provided on the machine platform assembly 100.
[0117] The arm assembly 200 includes a rotor 210 and an arm body 220.
[0118] The rotor 210 is used to drive the arm body 220 to perform a linear motion in the first direction under the action of the stator 110.
[0119] The arm body 220 includes a swing arm 230, a robot arm 240 and an end effector 250.
[0120] The swing arm 230 can move up and down relative to the mover 210 in the second direction.
[0121] The robotic arm 240 is connected to the swing arm 230.
[0122] The swing arm 230 can drive the robotic arm 240 to rotate around the first axis 600.
[0123] The end effector 250 is connected to the robotic arm 240.
[0124] The robotic arm 240 can drive the end effector 250 to perform actions.
[0125] The robot 10 provided by this application includes a machine base assembly 100 and an arm assembly 200. The end effector 250 of the arm assembly 200 is used to grasp workpieces.
[0126] The arm assembly 200 is detachably connected to the machine base assembly 100. The arm assembly 200 and the machine base assembly 100 are two relatively independent structures. The arm assembly 200 can be assembled on the machine base assembly 100 and can also be detached from the machine base assembly 100. This setting ensures the reliability of the connection between the arm assembly 200 and the machine base assembly 100 while facilitating the cleaning, maintenance, and transportation of the arm assembly 200 and the machine base assembly 100. That is, the arm assembly 200 can be assembled on the machine base assembly 100 or separated from the machine base assembly 100 according to actual usage needs. This setting simplifies the assembly structure of the robot 10, facilitates the installation and disassembly of the arm assembly 200 and the machine base assembly 100, and is convenient for the assembly, repair, and transportation of the robot 10.
[0127] In particular, when the components of the arm assembly 200 are damaged, the arm assembly 200 can be detached from the machine base assembly 100, and then the components of the arm assembly 200 can be replaced, which has the advantages of convenient operation and high feasibility.
[0128] Furthermore, the machine base assembly 100 includes a stator 110 and a mover 210. The arm assembly 200 includes a swing arm 230, a robotic arm 240, and an end effector 250. The end effector 250 is used to perform actions. The mover 210 is used to drive the arm assembly 200 (specifically, the workpiece grasped by the end effector 250 of the arm assembly 200) to move linearly in the first direction under the action of the stator 110. The end effector 250 can move up and down relative to the mover 210 in the second direction under the drive of the swing arm 230, that is, drive the workpiece grasped by the end effector 250 to move up and down in the second direction.
[0129] Further, the machine platform assembly 100 includes a stator 110. The arm assembly 200 includes a rotor 210 and an arm body 220. The arm body 220 includes a swing arm 230, a robotic arm 240, and an end effector 250. The end effector 250 is used to perform actions. The rotor 210 is used to drive the arm body 220 (specifically, the workpiece grasped by the end effector 250 of the arm body 220) to perform a linear motion in the first direction under the action of the stator 110. The end effector 250 can perform a lifting motion relative to the machine platform assembly 100 in the second direction under the drive of the swing arm 230, that is, drive the workpiece grasped by the end effector 250 to perform a lifting motion in the second direction.
[0130] That is to say, the arm assembly 200 can also drive the workpiece to perform a linear motion in the first direction, and the arm assembly 200 can also drive the workpiece to perform a lifting motion in the second direction. The swing arm 230 can drive the robotic arm 240 to rotate around the first axis 600. It can be seen from this that the robot 10 can drive the workpiece to move in multiple directions and multiple dimensions according to specific actual usage requirements, expanding the range of transporting the workpiece, making the range of handling the workpiece unrestricted, and improving the usage performance and market competitiveness of the product.
[0131] The machine platform assembly 100 includes a stator 110, and the arm assembly 200 includes a rotor 210. The stator 110 and the rotor 210 cooperate to enable the rotor 210 to drive the arm body 220 to perform a linear motion in the first direction under the action of the stator 110, that is, the rotor 210 can drive the workpiece grasped by the arm body 220 to perform a linear motion in the first direction. The cooperation of the stator 110 and the rotor 210 can effectively drive the grasped workpiece to move along a straight line at high speed and high precision, and can realize the high-speed movement of handling the workpiece, which is beneficial to improving the working cycle and working efficiency of the robot 10.
[0132] Further, the arm body 220 can move in the first direction under the action of the rotor 210. The robotic arm 240 can rotate around the first axis 600 under the action of the swing arm 230. The swing arm 230 can drive the robotic arm 240 and the end effector 250 to perform a lifting motion in the second direction, and the first direction and the second direction are different. The end effector 250 can perform actions under the action of the robotic arm 240. The rotor 210 drives the arm body 220 to achieve high-speed and high-precision rapid movement. The swing arm 230 drives the robotic arm 240 and the end effector 250 to rotate to adjust the posture of the workpiece while quickly moving the workpiece. The swing arm 230 drives the robotic arm 240 and the end effector 250 to lift, that is, the swing arm 230 drives the robotic arm 240 and the end effector 250 to lift and handle the workpiece. The robotic arm 240 drives the end effector 250 to perform actions to adjust the direction and posture of handling the workpiece.
[0133] By reasonably setting the structure of the robot 10, while ensuring the effective driving of the grasped workpiece to move at high speed and high precision, it can adjust the posture of the workpiece from multiple directions and angles, and can meet the usage requirements of high-precision, high-speed and high-repeatability work.
[0134] Optionally, the connection manner between the arm assembly 200 and the machine table assembly 100 includes any one of the following or a combination thereof: screwing, riveting, and plugging.
[0135] Optionally, the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.
[0136] Optionally, the included angle between the first direction and the second direction is an acute angle.
[0137] Optionally, the included angle between the first direction and the second direction is an obtuse angle.
[0138] In some embodiments, optionally, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the machine table assembly 100 further includes a slide rail 120 and a slider 400.
[0139] The slider 400 is slidably connected to the slide rail 120.
[0140] The arm assembly 200 is detachably connected to the slider 400.
[0141] Wherein, the slide rail 120 extends along the first direction.
[0142] In this embodiment, the structure of the machine table assembly 100 is further defined such that the machine table assembly 100 further includes a slide rail 120 and a slider 400, the slider 400 is slidably connected to the slide rail 120, and the slider 400 can slide relative to the slide rail 120.
[0143] Wherein, the arm assembly 200 is detachably connected to the slider 400, that is, the arm assembly 200 is detachably arranged on the machine table assembly 100. The arm assembly 200 can be assembled on the slider 400 and can also be detached from the slider 400. This setting ensures the reliability of the connection between the arm assembly 200 and the machine table assembly 100 while facilitating the cleaning, maintenance and transportation of the arm assembly 200 and the machine table assembly 100. That is, the arm assembly 200 can be assembled on the slider 400 or separated from the slider 400 according to actual usage needs. This setting simplifies the assembly structure of the robot 10, facilitates the installation and disassembly of the arm assembly 200 and the machine table assembly 100, and is convenient for the assembly, maintenance and transportation of the robot 10.
[0144] It can be understood that the slider 400 cooperates with the slide rail 120 to define the movement track of the arm assembly 200 relative to the machine table assembly 100 when moving, which can reduce the resistance when the mover 210 drives the arm body 220 to move under the action of the stator 110, and can ensure the effectiveness and feasibility of the mover 210 driving the arm body 220 to move linearly in the first direction under the action of the stator 110.
[0145] Among them, the slide rail 120 extends along the first direction, and the extension direction of the slide rail 120 matches the movement direction of the arm body 220 under the action of the mover 210, so that the arm assembly 200 can move relative to the machine table assembly 100 along the first direction, avoiding the situation that the arm assembly 200 deviates from the machine table assembly 100, and providing a reliable structural support for ensuring that the grasped workpiece moves linearly at high speed and high precision.
[0146] In some embodiments, optionally, the machine table assembly 100 includes a slide rail 120, and the arm assembly 200 includes a slider 400.
[0147] The slider 400 is detachably arranged on the slide rail 120.
[0148] The slider 400 can slide along the slide rail 120.
[0149] Among them, the slide rail 120 extends along the first direction.
[0150] In this embodiment, the cooperation structure of the machine table assembly 100 and the arm assembly 200 is further defined.
[0151] The machine table assembly 100 includes a slide rail 120, and the arm assembly 200 includes a slider 400.
[0152] The slider 400 is detachably arranged on the slide rail 120, the slider 400 is slidably connected to the slide rail 120, and the slider 400 can slide relative to the slide rail 120.
[0153] Among them, the slider 400 is detachably connected to the slide rail 120, that is, the arm assembly 200 is detachably arranged on the machine table assembly 100. The slider 400 cooperates with the slide rail 120, so that the arm assembly 200 can be assembled on the machine table assembly 100 and can also be disassembled from the machine table assembly 100. This setting ensures the reliability of the connection between the arm assembly 200 and the machine table assembly 100 while facilitating the cleaning, maintenance and transportation of the arm assembly 200 and the machine table assembly 100. That is, the slider 400 of the arm assembly 200 can be assembled on the slide rail 120 of the machine table assembly 100 according to actual use needs, or the slider 400 of the arm assembly 200 can be separated from the slide rail 120 of the machine table assembly 100. This setting simplifies the assembly structure of the robot 10, facilitates the installation and disassembly of the arm assembly 200 and the machine table assembly 100, and is convenient for the assembly, maintenance and transportation of the robot 10.
[0154] It is understandable that the slider 400 cooperates with the slide rail 120 to define the movement track of the arm assembly 200 relative to the machine table assembly 100 when moving, which can reduce the resistance when the mover 210 drives the arm body 220 to move under the action of the stator 110, and can ensure the effectiveness and feasibility of the mover 210 driving the arm body 220 to move linearly in the first direction under the action of the stator 110.
[0155] Among them, the slide rail 120 extends in the first direction, and the extension direction of the slide rail 120 matches the movement direction of the arm body 220 under the action of the mover 210, so that the arm assembly 200 can move relative to the machine table assembly 100 in the first direction, avoiding the situation that the arm assembly 200 deviates from the machine table assembly 100, and providing a reliable structural support for ensuring that the grasped workpiece moves linearly at high speed and high precision.
[0156] In some embodiments, optionally, as Figure 1 shown, the arm assembly 200 includes a mounting plate 260.
[0157] Both the mover 210 and the arm body 220 are arranged on the mounting plate 260.
[0158] The mounting plate 260 is detachably connected to the slider 400.
[0159] In this embodiment, the structure of the arm assembly 200 is further defined.
[0160] The arm assembly 200 further includes a mounting plate 260. Any one of the mover 210 and the arm body 220 is arranged on the mounting plate 260. The mounting plate 260 serves as the mounting carrier of the mover 210 and the arm body 220, and has the function of mounting and fixing the mover 210 and the arm body 220.
[0161] Among them, when the arm assembly 200 is detachably connected to the slider 400, the mounting plate 260 is detachably connected to the slider 400. That is to say, the mover 210 and the arm body 220 are detachably connected to the slider 400 through the mounting plate 260. The mover 210 drives the mounting plate 260 to move linearly in the first direction under the action of the stator 110. Since the arm body 220 is mounted on the mounting plate 260, the arm body 220 can move linearly in the first direction along with the mounting plate 260.
[0162] The mounting plate 260 is detachably connected to the slider 400. The connection manner between the mounting plate 260 and the slider 400 includes any one of the following or a combination thereof: screwing, riveting, and plugging. The mounting plate 260 and the slider 400 can be assembled together or separated according to actual use requirements.
[0163] In some embodiments, optionally, the arm assembly 200 includes a mounting plate 260.
[0164] Both the mover 210 and the arm body 220 are disposed on the mounting plate 260.
[0165] The mounting plate 260 is detachably connected to the slide rail 120 through the slider 400.
[0166] In this embodiment, the structure of the arm assembly 200 is further defined.
[0167] The arm assembly 200 further includes a mounting plate 260. Either the mover 210 or the arm body 220 is disposed on the mounting plate 260. The mounting plate 260 serves as the mounting carrier for the mover 210 and the arm body 220, and has the function of mounting and fixing the mover 210 and the arm body 220.
[0168] Wherein, when the machine table assembly 100 includes a slide rail 120 and the arm assembly 200 includes a slider 400, and the slider 400 is detachably connected to the slide rail 120, the mounting plate 260 is connected to the slider 400, and the mounting plate 260 is detachably connected to the slide rail 120 through the slider 400. That is to say, the mover 210, the arm body 220 and the mounting plate 260 are detachably connected to the slide rail 120 through the slider 400. The mover 210 drives the mounting plate 260 to move linearly in the first direction under the action of the stator 110. Since the arm body 220 is mounted on the mounting plate 260, the arm body 220 can move linearly in the first direction along with the mounting plate 260.
[0169] Optionally, the mounting plate 260 is fixedly connected to the slider 400.
[0170] Optionally, the mounting plate 260 is detachably connected to the slider 400. The connection manner between the mounting plate 260 and the slider 400 includes any one or a combination of the following: screwing, riveting and plugging. The mounting plate 260 and the slider 400 can be assembled together or separated according to actual usage requirements.
[0171] In some embodiments, optionally, as Figure 1 shown, the mounting plate 260 has a first end face 262 and a second end face 263 in its thickness direction.
[0172] The arm body 220 is detachably disposed on the first end face 262.
[0173] The mover 210 is detachably disposed on the second end face 263.
[0174] In this embodiment, the mating structure of the mounting plate 260, the mover 210 and the arm body 220 is further defined.
[0175] Among them, the mounting plate 260 includes a first end face 262 and a second end face 263. The first end face 262 and the second end face 263 are opposite and spaced apart along the thickness direction of the mounting plate 260, and the second end face 263 faces the stator 110.
[0176] The arm body 220 is detachably provided on the first end face 262, and the rotor 210 is detachably provided on the second end face 263. That is to say, the arm body 220 and the rotor 210 are installed on different faces of the mounting plate 260. In this way, the space of the robot 10 in the thickness direction of the mounting plate 260 is reasonably utilized, which is beneficial to reducing the size of the arm assembly 200 in the first direction. While ensuring the moving stroke of the arm assembly 200, it is beneficial to reduce the external dimension of the robot 10 in the first direction, and further beneficial to reducing the installation space of the robot 10.
[0177] Among them, the rotor 210 is detachably provided on the second end face 263, so that the rotor 210 can be assembled on the mounting plate 260 and can also be detached from the mounting plate 260. That is to say, the arm assembly 200 can be further disassembled and the arm assembly 200 can be further split. This setting ensures the reliability of the connection between the rotor 210 and the mounting plate 260, and is convenient for cleaning, maintenance and transportation of the rotor 210 and the mounting plate 260. This setting can split the arm assembly 200 into multiple relatively small-sized component parts. In this way, it is more convenient for the assembly, maintenance and transportation of the robot 10.
[0178] In some embodiments, optionally, as Figure 3 shown, the mounting plate 260 includes a plate body 264 and two wing plates 265.
[0179] The arm body 220 is detachably provided on the plate body 264.
[0180] Along the first direction, the plate body 264 is connected between the two wing plates 265.
[0181] A part of the wing plate 265 protrudes from the rotor 210 in the second direction, and the part of the wing plate 265 that protrudes from the rotor 210 is connected to the slider 400.
[0182] In this embodiment, the mating structures of the mounting plate 260, the arm body 220, the rotor 210 and the slider 400 are further defined.
[0183] The mounting plate 260 includes a plate body 264 and two wing plates 265. Along the first direction, the plate body 264 is connected between the two wing plates 265.
[0184] The arm body 220 is detachably provided on the plate body 264, that is to say, the arm body 220 is connected to a local area of the mounting plate 260 (that is, the plate body 264).
[0185] A part of any one of the two wing plates 265 protrudes from the mover 210 in the second direction, and the part of the wing plate 265 protruding from the mover 210 is used for mating connection with the slider 400. This setting rationally arranges the assembly area of the mounting plate 260, so that the part of the wing plate 265 mating with the slider 400 will not interfere with the arm body 220 and the mover 210, reducing the resistance when the arm assembly 200 moves relative to the machine table assembly 100, enabling the arm assembly 200 to effectively drive the workpiece to be transported, and ensuring the effectiveness and feasibility of the mating connection of the mounting plate 260, the arm body 220, the mover 210 and the slider 400.
[0186] In some embodiments, optionally, as Figure 1 and Figure 3 shown, the mover 210 has a third end face 212 and a fourth end face 214 in the second direction.
[0187] The first part of the wing plate 265 protrudes from the third end face 212 and is connected to the slider 400.
[0188] The second part of the wing plate 265 protrudes from the fourth end face 214 and is connected to the slider 400.
[0189] In this embodiment, the mating structure of the mounting plate 260, the mover 210 and the slider 400 is further defined.
[0190] The mover 210 has a relatively and spaced-apart third end face 212 and a fourth end face 214. The third end face 212 and the fourth end face 214 are arranged in the second direction.
[0191] The first part of each wing plate 265 protrudes from the third end face 212 and is connected to the slider 400, and the second part of each wing plate 265 protrudes from the fourth end face 214 and is connected to the slider 400.
[0192] That is, one mounting plate 260 is matingly connected with four sliders 400. Among them, the mounting plate 260 is fixedly connected with the slider 400, or the mounting plate 260 is detachably connected with the slider 400.
[0193] Optionally, the number of the slide rails 120 is two, the two slide rails 120 are spaced apart in the second direction, each slide rail 120 extends in the first direction, and each slide rail 120 is matingly connected with two sliders 400.
[0194] Optionally, the slide rail 120 includes two sliding parts, the two sliding parts are spaced apart in the second direction, each sliding part extends in the first direction, and each sliding part is matingly connected with two sliders 400.
[0195] This setting, due to the reasonable layout of the mating structures of the mounting plate 260, mover 210, arm assembly 200, and slider 400, is beneficial to reducing the spacing between the parts of the wing plate 265 that are matingly connected to the two sliders 400 in the second direction, and is beneficial to reducing the spacing between the sliders 400 arranged at intervals in the second direction. Furthermore, it is beneficial to reducing the span of the parts of the slide rail 120 that are matingly connected to the slider 400 (for example, two slide rails 120, such as the two sliding parts of the slide rail 120), thereby being beneficial to improving the structural strength and stiffness of the mounting plate 260 after the arm assembly 200 and the machine platform assembly 100 are assembled. In this way, it is beneficial to reducing the influence of the magnetic attraction force between the stator 110 and the mover 210 on the bending deformation of the mounting plate 260, providing structural support for the stable operation of the robot 10, and is also beneficial to reducing the operating noise of the robot 10 and improving the use performance and market competitiveness of the product.
[0196] In some embodiments, optionally, as Figure 3 shown, the arm assembly 200 further includes a lead screw 270 and a first motor 280. The lead screw 270 and the first motor 280 are both detachably provided on the mounting plate 260. The swing arm 230 is screwed to the lead screw 270. The first motor 280 is used to drive the lead screw 270 to rotate.
[0197] Or the arm assembly 200 further includes a linear motor. The linear motor is detachably provided on the mounting plate 260. The linear motor is used to drive the swing arm 230 to perform a lifting motion.
[0198] In this embodiment, the robot 10 includes a lead screw 270 and a first motor 280.
[0199] Optionally, the first motor 280 includes a servo motor.
[0200] Wherein, the swing arm 230 is screwed to the lead screw 270, and the first motor 280 drives the lead screw 270 to rotate to drive the swing arm 230 to lift along the length direction of the lead screw 270.
[0201] Optionally, both the lead screw 270 and the first motor 280 are provided on the mounting plate 260. The nut of the lead screw 270 and the swing arm 230 are both connected to the guiding block of the lead screw 270. That is to say, the nut and the swing arm 230 are both screwed to the lead screw 270 through the guiding block. The first motor 280 operates to drive the lead screw 270 to rotate, so that the swing arm 230 makes a vertical lifting motion. Arranging the lead screw 270 and the first motor 280 on the mounting plate 260 can achieve the stability and reliability of the overall operation of the arm assembly 200.
[0202] Or, the robot 10 further includes a linear motor, and the linear motor is used to drive the swing arm 230 to perform a lifting motion in the second direction, so as to drive the swing arm 230 to drive the robotic arm 240 and the end effector 250 to perform a lifting motion in the second direction.

That is to say, the arm assembly 200 can be further disassembled and split.

This arrangement reasonably utilizes the area of the mounting plate 260 in the first direction, and while ensuring the effectiveness and feasibility of installing and fixing the lead screw 270 and the two guide rails 290, it is helpful to reduce the size of the arm assembly 200 in the first direction compared to the case where the lead screw 270 is located on one side of the two guide rails 290. In this way, while ensuring the moving stroke of the arm assembly 200, it is helpful to reduce the outer dimensions of the robot 10 in the first direction, thereby helping to reduce the installation space of the robot 10.
[0218] Each guide rail 290 is detachably mounted on the mounting plate 260.

As Figure 1 shown, the two major modules can be independently assembled and disassembled, and the two major modules are only connected to each other through fasteners 500 (such as bolts and screws), which greatly facilitates the installation and disassembly between the modules and is convenient for assembly, maintenance, and transportation.
[0269] At the same time, through the modular design of the arm assembly 200, the structure is more compact, which is beneficial to reducing the installation span of the two slide rails 120 of the machine platform assembly 100, and then improving the strength and rigidity of the mounting plate 260, so that the mounting plate 260 is not easily deformed due to the magnetic attraction force between the mover 210 and the stator 110.

The mounting plate 260 is fixed on the slider 400 through the fasteners 500, thereby realizing the connection of the two modules.
[0273] By coaxializing the center line of the lead screw 270 with the center line of the swing arm 230, the spatial layout is optimized. Meanwhile, the installation positions of the screw holes on the mounting plate 260 are optimized, further reducing the span of the two sliders 400 in the second direction, thereby improving the strength and rigidity of the mounting plate 260 of the robot 10 and reducing the influence of the magnetic suction force between the mover 210 and the stator 110 on the bending deformation of the mounting plate 260.
