METHOD FOR RECOVERING POSTURE OF WORK MACHINE, POSTURE RECOVERY SYSTEM, AND POSTURE RECOVERY APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240117592 titled 'METHOD FOR RECOVERING POSTURE OF WORK MACHINE, POSTURE RECOVERY SYSTEM, AND POSTURE RECOVERY APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a posture recovery apparatus for a work machine that automatically recovers the posture of the machine during operation. The apparatus sets a safe posture range, acquires posture information, and initiates a recovery operation if the posture deviates from the safe range.
- The setting unit establishes a safe posture range for the work machine based on its initial posture.
- The acquisition unit gathers posture information while the work machine is in operation.
- The recovery unit intervenes if the posture of the work machine strays from the safe range for a specified period, triggering a recovery operation.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in various industries where maintaining correct posture of machines is crucial, such as manufacturing, construction, and healthcare.
Problems Solved
1. Preventing accidents or damage caused by incorrect posture of work machines. 2. Improving efficiency and productivity by ensuring machines operate within safe posture ranges.
Benefits
1. Enhanced safety for operators and surrounding personnel. 2. Reduced maintenance costs by preventing posture-related wear and tear on machines. 3. Increased operational efficiency through automated posture recovery.
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing posture recovery in industrial robots for manufacturing processes.
Possible Prior Art
One potential prior art could be posture correction devices used in ergonomics to assist individuals in maintaining proper posture while sitting or standing for extended periods.
Unanswered Questions
How does the apparatus differentiate between intentional posture changes and deviations that require recovery?
The abstract does not specify how the apparatus distinguishes between deliberate posture adjustments and deviations that necessitate intervention.
What is the impact of the recovery operation on the overall performance and lifespan of the work machine?
The abstract does not address the potential consequences of the recovery operation on the long-term functionality and durability of the work machine.
Original Abstract Submitted
a posture recovery apparatus capable of automatically recovering a posture of a work machine is realized. the setting unit () sets a safe posture range based on a posture of the work machine before operation. the acquisition unit () acquires posture information on the work machine in operation. in a case where, by reference to the posture information, it has been detected that the posture of the work machine in operation has deviated from the safe posture range for a first period, the recovery unit () causes the work machine to carry out a recovery operation.
