Original Abstract Submitted
A joint structure of a robot according to the present disclosure includes: a first link whose one end is connected to a first member; a second link in which one end thereof is connected to the first link and an other end thereof is connected to a second member; and a first pivot that connects an other end of the first link to the one end of the second link. The joint structure also includes: a third link whose one end is connected to the first link at a position near the first pivot; and a slide part connected to the second link so as to be slidable. An other end of the third link is connected to the slide part.
