JOINT STRUCTURE OF ROBOT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240246227 titled 'JOINT STRUCTURE OF ROBOT
The abstract of the patent application describes a joint structure for a robot, consisting of multiple links and pivots connecting them.
- First link connected to a first member
- Second link connected to the first link and a second member
- First pivot connecting the first link to the second link
- Third link connected to the first link near the first pivot
- Slide part connected to the second link for sliding movement
- Third link connected to the slide part
