ARM-SHAPED STRUCTURE AND ROBOT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18546621 titled 'ARM-SHAPED STRUCTURE AND ROBOT

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes an arm-shaped structure consisting of a pipe-shaped main body and a metallic attachment interface that can be secured to another component. The main body and attachment interface are joined in a way that prevents relative movement along the longitudinal axis.

  • The arm-shaped structure includes a pipe-shaped main body and a metallic attachment interface.
  • Both the main body and attachment interface are formed by casting.
  • The main body and attachment interface are joined in a way that prevents movement along the longitudinal axis.
  • Engagement between a recess and a protrusion in the main body and attachment interface prevents movement around the longitudinal axis.

Potential Applications: - This technology could be used in various industrial applications where secure attachment of components is required. - It may find use in robotics, machinery, or construction equipment where stability and durability are essential.

Problems Solved: - Provides a secure and stable connection between components. - Prevents unwanted movement or rotation of the arm-shaped structure.

Benefits: - Enhanced stability and durability. - Simplified assembly process. - Improved overall performance of the connected components.

Commercial Applications: Title: "Innovative Arm-Shaped Structure for Secure Component Attachment" This technology could have commercial applications in industries such as manufacturing, construction, and robotics. Companies looking to improve the stability and reliability of their equipment could benefit from implementing this innovative arm-shaped structure.

Questions about Arm-Shaped Structure: 1. How does the casting process contribute to the overall strength of the arm-shaped structure? 2. What are the potential cost savings associated with using this technology in industrial applications?


Original Abstract Submitted

An arm-shaped structure includes a pipe-shaped main body and a metallic attachment interface joined to at least one end of the main body and securable to another component. At least a portion of the main body and the attachment interface is formed by casting. The main body and the attachment interface are joined to each other in a state where relative movement along a longitudinal axis of the main body and around the longitudinal axis is prevented in accordance with engagement between a recess provided in one of the main body and the attachment interface and a protrusion provided in the other one of the main body and the attachment interface.
