Original Abstract Submitted
a joint structure of a robot according to the present disclosure includes: a first link whose one end of the first link is connected to a first member; a second link; a first pivot connected to an other end of the first link and connected to one end of the second link; and a second pivot connected to an other end of the second link and connected to one end of a second member. the joint structure includes: an actuator that rotates the first pivot; a third link whose one end of the third link is connected to the second pivot and which faces in a direction away from the second link; and a force application part. the force application part applies a force on a line connecting a predetermined position on the first link to an other end of the third link.
