Description: FIELD OF THE INVENTION The invention relates to a control system and a control method for a robot including a robot hand according to the preamble of claims 1, 6. Such a control method and system will hereinafter be discussed with reference to fig. 34. US 4,529,921 relates to a tracking control system of a multi-joint robot. There are used two coordinate systems for the position and the angular pose of the robot hand as well as a drive means for driving the robot hand into a predetermined desired position and angular pose. A memory section stores the position/pose matrix. In order to generate a trajectory between teaching points, the position/pose matrix data and tracking data are read out from the memory in response to a read control signal. A teaching point selection signal generator generates a teaching point selection signal for selecting a calculation interval and a transition variable calculator calculates transition systems signals and translational velocity signals used for the position/pose control. Thus, the position/pose control is based on the position/pose matrix stored in the memory. EP 0 442 481 A2 also relates to an industrial robot control method and apparatus. A base coordinate system and a tool coordinate system is used in connection with the determination of the position and pose of the tool. After the tool has been brought into contact with a workpiece, the position/pose of the tool is determined. The position/pose is determined using a forward transformation operation. Whilst this document is provided for determining the position/pose of the tool by means of forward and backward transformation matrices, an alignment is here not performed. GB 21 46 796 A relates to a teaching method for an industrial robot and a apparatus for performing the same. A teaching pattern memory is used for storing various weaving-like loci during a teaching mode operation. No transformation matrices are used here for performing weaving-like motions and no alignment of a robot hand is to be achieved therewith. EP 0 402 788 also relates to the controlling of a robot having a base coordinate system and a hand coordinate system. Also this document does not relate to the alignment of a robot hand in a particular coordinate system. It does relate to the determination of positions and attitudes of the robot hand by using transformation matrices from the base coordinate system to the hand coordinate system. Whilst this document uses matrices for different coordinate systems, an alignment procedure is not contemplated with respect to the transformations performed here. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In a "jog operation", an operator operates a movement instructing device to manually move a robot actually to certain position and pose. The jog operation is used when the operator manually moves the robot optionally in an optional coordinate system such as a joint coordinate system or an orthogonal coordinate system. Further, a coordinate system set at an acting point of an actuator which is mounted on a mechanical interface is called "a tool coordinate system". The jog operation in the tool coordinate system is called "a tool jog". Moreover, in a "hand alignment operation", instructions are practiced from a movement instructing device by the operator, to move a pose of a hand of a robot so as to automatically be brought to a predetermined pose, without a change of a present position of the hand of the robot. The hand alignment operation is chiefly used together with the tool jog and is utilized when the operator moves the tool to a position close to an operation objective article to teach position and pose to the hand. Here, a coordinate system set on a base mounting surface of the robot is called "a base coordinate system". A position of the hand of the robot is expressed by a position of an origin of the tool coordinate system on the base coordinate system, and is mentioned as (X, Y, Z). Further, a pose of the hand of the robot is expressed by rotation of the tool coordinate system on the base coordinate system. Generally, the pose of the hand of the robot is expressed by (A, B, C), using an Euler's angle inscription. Accordingly, the position and pose of the hand of the robot are expressed by (X, Y, Z, A, B, C). Fig. 34 (relating to the preamble features of claims 1, 6 of the attached drawings is a block diagram showing hand alignment operation of a conventional control system for a robot. In Fig. 34, a teaching box 1 is provided with a hand alignment command section 2. The reference numeral 3 denotes a control unit for the robot. A hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 computes an amount of movement of each axis of the robot at the hand alignment operation. A drive section 5 commands operation directly to a robot body 8. A current-position or present-position data memory section 6 stores therein a present position of the hand of the robot, which results from driving of the robot. A present-pose data memory section 7 stores therein a present pose of the hand of the robot, which results from driving of the robot. Figs. 35 and 36 describe Fig. 34 from the viewpoint of software. Fig. 35 illustrates a data structure, while Fig. 36 illustrates a flow (F36) of a program. Operation of the conventional control system for the robot will next be described. In Fig. 34, the drive section 5 always stores a current or present position (35-1) of the hand of the robot into the present-position data memory section 6, and stores the present pose (35-3) of the hand of the robot into the present-pose data memory section 7, as shown in step S36-1. First, in step S36-2, an operator instructs the hand alignment operation by means of the teaching box 1. The hand alignment command section 2 outputs a hand alignment command (35-4) to the hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4. In step S36-3, the hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 fetches pose data (35-3) out of the present-pose data memory section 7, and fetches position data (35-1) out of the present-position data memory section 6. In step S36-4, the hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 draws up or prepares movement-destination position and pose data (35-2) on the basis of the fetched position data and pose data, such that the pose of the hand is brought to parallel with or perpendicularity to each axis of X, Y and Z in the base coordinate system. The prepared movement-destination position and pose data (35-2) are outputted to the drive section 5. That is, assuming that the present position is (Xc, Yc, Zc), the present pose is (Ac, Bc, Cc), and the movement-destination position and pose due to the computing results are (X, Y, Z, A, B, C), the following relations are produced: In this connection, ¥ is an operator expressing an integer division. X = Xc Y = Yc Z = Zc In case of Ac ≧ 0: A = 90° x ((Ac + 45°)¥90°) In case of Ac < 0: A = 90° x ((Ac - 45°)¥90°) In case of Bc ≧ 0: B = 90° x ((Bc + 45°)¥90°) In case of Bc < 0: B = 90° x ((Bc - 45°)¥90°) In case of Cc ≧ 0: C = 90° x ((Cc + 45°)¥90°) In case of Cc < 0: C = 90° x ((Cc - 45°)¥90°) Lastly, in step s36-5, the drive section 5 drives the robot 8 to the movement-destination position and pose. The conventional control system for the robot is arranged as described above. Accordingly, in the case where it is desired to teach a plurality of positions and poses at the same pose, if the pose of the hand is not in parallel with or perpendicular to each axis of X, Y and Z in the base coordinate system, it is required that an operator regulates or adjusts the pose of the hand by the jog operation after the hand alignment operation. Further, it is difficult to accurately set an operation surface of the robot so as to be brought in parallel with or perpendicular to each axis of X, Y and Z in the base coordinate system. Only execution of the hand alignment operation by the operator makes it possible to bring the hand to the pose of the hand required for teaching. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The object of the present invention is to provide a control system and method, that allow to easily bring a robot hand into an alignment position before a teaching process is possible.

The prepared movement-destination position and pose data are outputted to the drive means. Moreover, the working coordinate system memory means executes computation such that the pose of the hand is brought to parallel with or perpendicularity to each axis of X, Y and Z in the working coordinate system, in the case where the hand alignment is instructed in which the pose aligned on the working coordinate system is brought to the destination pose. The working coordinate system memory means prepares the movement destination position and pose data, and outputs the same to the drive means. A computing method will be described below in the case where the hand alignment is instructed in which the stored optional pose is brought to the destination pose. Here, assuming that a present position is (Xc, Yc, Zc), a stored pose is (Am, Bm, Cm), and movement-destination position and pose due to the computation results are (X, Y, Z, A, B, C), the following relations are obtained: X = Xc Y = Yc Z = Zc A = Am B = Bm C = Cm Subsequently, a computing method will be described below in the case where the hand alignment is instructed in which the pose aligned on the working coordinate system is brought to the destination pose.

Furthermore, the hand-alignment system command means stores the hand alignment system into the hand alignment-system memory means. Moreover, in the case where the hand alignment is instructed, the hand-alignment and movement-amount computing means prepares the movement-destination position and pose data with the data of the present-position data memory means as the movement destination position and with the data of the pose memory means as the movement destination pose, in the case where the hand alignment system is the system in which the stored optional pose is brought to the destination pose. The prepared movement-destination position and pose data are outputted to the drive means. Furthermore, in the case where the hand alignment system is the system in which the pose aligned on the working coordinate system is brought to the destination pose, the hand-alignment movement-amount computing means executes computation such that the pose of the hand is brought to parallel with or perpendicularity to each axis of X, Y and Z in the working coordinate system. The hand-alignment movement-amount computing means prepares the movement-destination position and pose data, and outputs the same to the drive means. A computing method will be described below in the case of the system in which the stored optional pose is brought to the destination pose. Here, assuming that a present position is (Xc, Yc, Zc), a stored pose is (Am, Bm, Cm), and movement-destination position and pose due to the computation results are (X, Y, Z, A, B, C), the following relations are obtained: X = Xc Y = Yc Z = Zc A = Am B = Bm C = Cm Subsequently, a computing method will be described below in the case of the system in which the pose aligned on the working coordinate system is brought to the destination pose. Generally, a position can be expressed by a matrix having three rows and one column, and a pose can be expressed by a rotating matrix having three rows and three columns, while position and pose can be expressed by a matrix having four rows and four columns. Here, it is assumed that the present position and pose expressed by the base coordinate system are (Xbc, Ybc, Zbc, Abc, Bbc, Cbc), the movement-destination position pose expressed by the base coordinate system are (Xbd, Ybd, Zbd, Abd, Bbd, Cbd), the present position and pose expressed by the working coordinate system are (Xsc, Ysc, Zsc, Asc, Bsc, Csc), the movement-destination position and pose expressed by the working coordinate system are (Xsd, Ysd, Zsd, Asd, Bsd, Csd), the data indicating the working coordinate system on the base coordinate system are (Xs, Ys, Zs, As, Bs, Cs), the above elements expressed respectively by matrixes are Mbc, Mbd, Msc, Msd and Ms in order, ¥ is an operator expressing an integer division, * is an operator indicating a product of the matrix, and a matrix (M) -1 indicates an inverse matrix of a matrix M . The present position and pose Msc expressed by the working coordinate system are first obtained on the basis of the following equation, by the coordinate transformation means from the base coordinate system to the working coordinate system: Msc = (Ms) -1 * Mbc Subsequently, the movement-destination position and pose expressed by the working coordinate system are computed from the present position and pose expressed by the working coordinate system, on the basis of the following equations: Xsd = Xsc Ysd = Ysc Zsd = Zsc In case of Asc ≧ 0: Asd = 90° x ((Asc + 45°)¥90°) In case of Asc < 0: Asd = 90° x ((Asc - 45°)¥90°) In case of Bsc ≧ 0: Bsd = 90° x ((Bsc + 45°)¥90°) In case of Bsc < 0: Bsd = 90° x ((Bsc - 45°)¥90°) In case of Csc ≧ 0: Csd = 90° x ((Csc + 45°)¥90°) In case of Csc < 0: Csd = 90° x ((Csc - 45°)¥90°) Subsequently, the movement-destination position and pose Mbd expressed by the base coordinate system are obtained by the coordinate transformation means from the working coordinate system to the base coordinate system, on the basis of the following equation: Mbd = Ms * Msd Accordingly, it is made possible that even the pose which is not in parallel with or perpendicular to each axis of X, Y and Z in the base coordinate system is brought to the destination pose of the hand alignment operation.

Fig. 1 is a block diagram showing a hand alignment operation according to the first example. In Fig. 1, a teaching box 1 is provided with a hand-alignment command section 2. The reference numeral 3 denotes a control unit for a robot. A hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 computes an amount of movement of each axis of the robot at hand alignment operation. A drive section 5 commands the operation directly to a robot body 8. A current-position or present-position data memory section 6 stores therein a present position of a hand of the robot, which is resulted from driving of the robot. A pose memory section 9 is provided in which pose data of the hand required at teaching operation is stored. Figs. 2 and 3 describe Fig. 1 from the viewpoint of software. Fig. 2 illustrates a data structure, while Fig. 3 illustrates a flow (F3) of a program. Operation will next be described. In Figs. 1 through 3, according to step S -1 the drive section 5 always stores a current or present position (2-1) of the hand of the robot into the present-position data memory section 6. Stored in the pose memory section 9 are pose data (2-3) of the hand which are required for the teaching operation. Then in step S3-2, an operator commands hand alignment operation by use of the teaching box 1. The hand-alignment command section 2 outputs a hand alignment command (2-4) to the hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4. In step S3-3, the hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 fetches pose data (2-3) out of the pose memory section 9, and fetches position data (2-1) out of the present-position data memory section 6. In step S3-4, the hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 prepares the movement-destination position and pose data (2-2) with the fetched position data (2-1) as a movement destination position and with the fetched pose data (2-3) as a movement destination pose. Finally, in step S3-5, the prepared movement destination position and pose data (2-2) are outputted to the drive section 5. That is, assuming that a present position is (Xc, Yc, Zc), a stored pose is (Am, Bm Cm), and movement-destination position and pose due to the computing results are (X, Y, Z, A, B, C), the following relations are produced: X = Xc Y = Yc Z = Zc A = Am B = Bm C = Cm Lastly, the drive section 5 drives the robot 8 to the movement destination position and pose. A second example of a control system will be described below with reference to Figs. 4 through 7 of the accompanying drawings. Fig. 4 is a block diagram showing a hand alignment operation according to the second example. In Fig. 4, a teaching box 1 is provided with a hand-alignment command section 2. The reference numeral 3 denotes a control unit for a robot. A hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 computes an amount of movement of each axis of the robot at the hand alignment operation. A drive section 5 commands operation directly to a robot body 8. A current-position or present-position data memory section 6 stores therein a present position of a hand of the robot, which is resulted from driving of the robot. A present-pose data memory section 7 stores therein a present pose of the hand of the robot, which is resulted from driving of the robot.

Fig. 5 illustrates a data structure, and Fig. 6 illustrates a flow (F6) of a program in case of the pose memory command, while Fig. 7 illustrates a flow (F7) of a program in case of the hand alignment command. Operation will next be described. In Figs. 4 through 7, as seen in step S6-1 and S7-1, the drive section 5 always stores a current or present position (5-1) of the hand of the robot into the present-position data memory section 6, and stores the present pose (5-4) of the hand of the robot into the present-pose data memory section 7. Stored in the pose memory section 9 are pose data (5-3) of the hand which are required for the teaching operation. In Fig. 6, step s6-2, an operator instructs a pose memory command by use of the teaching box 1. The pose memory command section 11 outputs a pose memory command (5-6) to the pose-data modifying section 10. In step S6-3, the pose-data modifying section 10 fetches pose data (5-4) out of the present-pose data memory section 7, and in step S6-4, stores the fetched pose data (5-4) into the pose memory section (9). Subsequently, in step S7-2, the operator may instruct the hand alignment operation by use of the teaching box 1. The hand-alignment command section 2 outputs the hand alignment command (5-5) to the hand-alignment movement-amount computation section 4. In step S7-3, the hand-alignment movement-amount computation section 4 fetches position data (5-3) out of the pose memory section 9, and fetches position data (5-1) out of the present-position data memory section 6. In step S7-4, the hand-alignment movement-amount computation section 4 prepares the movement-destination position and pose data (5-2) with the fetched position data (5-1) as a movement destination position and with the fetched pose data (5-3) as a movement destination position, and outputs the movement-destination position and pose data (5-2) to the drive section 5. That is, assuming that a present position is (Xc, Yc, Zc), a stored pose is (Am, Bm Cm), and movement-destination position and pose due to the computing results are (X, Y, Z, A, B, C), the following relations are produced: X = Xc Y = Yc Z = Zc A = Am B = Bm C = Cm Lastly, in step s7-5, the drive section 5 drives the robot 8 to the movement-destination position and pose. A third example of a control system will be described below with reference to Figs. 8 through 11. Fig. 8 is a block diagram showing a hand alignment operation according to the third example. In Fig. 8, a teaching box 1 is provided with a plurality of hand alignment command sections. A first hand alignment command section 2 commands hand alignment to a first pose. The reference numeral 3 denotes a control unit for a robot. A hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 computes an amount of movement of each axis of the robot at the hand alignment operation. A drive section 5 commands operation directly to a robot body 8. A current-position or present-position data memory section 6 stores therein a present position of a hand of the robot, which is resulted from driving of the robot. A present-pose data memory section 7 stores therein a present pose of the hand of the robot, which is resulted from driving of the robot. A first pose memory section 9 is provided in which pose data of the hand required for the teaching operation are stored. A pose-data modifying section 10 changes or modifies data of the pose memory sections. A first pose memory command section 11 instructs modification to the pose data modifying section 10. A second pose memory command section 12 instructs modification to the pose data modifying section 10. An n th pose memory command section 13 instructs modification to the pose-data modifying section 10. A second hand-alignment command section 14 commands hand alignment to a second pose. An n th hand-alignment command section 15 commands hand alignment to an n th pose. A second pose memory section 16 is provided in which pose data of the hand required for the teaching operation are stored. An n th pose memory section 17 is provided in which pose data of the hand required for the teaching operation are stored. Figs. 9 through 11 describe Fig. 8 from the viewpoint of software. Fig. 9 illustrates a data structure, and Fig. 10 illustrates a flow (F10) of a program in case of the pose memory command, while Fig. 11 illustrates a flow (F11) of a program in case of the hand alignment command. Operation will next be described. In Figs. 8 through 11, as seen in step S10-1 and S11-1, the drive section 5 always stores a current or present position (5-1) of the hand of the robot into the present-position data memory section 6, and stores the present pose (5-4) of the hand of the robot into the present-pose data memory section 7. Stored in the first pose memory section 9, the second pose memory section 16 and the n th pose memory section 17 are pose data (9-3) of the hand which are required respectively for teaching operations. First, as seen in step S10-2, an operator instructs the output of a selected pose memory command by use of the teaching box 1. Then the pose data modifying section 10 fetches the pose data (9-4) out of the present-pose data memory section 7, for storage of the fetched pose data (9-4) into a designated pose memory section 16. Identification of the proper memory is made by heating in blocks S10-3, S10-5 and S10-7. If the second pose memory command section is selected, the second pose memory command section 12 outputs, to the pose data modifying section 10, the pose memory command (9-6) which indicates that the pose memory section intended for modification is the second pose memory section 16. Finally, in steps S10-4, S10-6 and S10-8, the fetched data in step S10-2 is stored in the appropriate memory section, here the selected second pose memory section. Here, the first pose memory command section corresponds to the first pose memory section, and the second pose memory command section corresponds to the second pose memory section, while the n th pose memory command section corresponds to the n th pose memory section. Subsequently, as seen in Fig. 11, step S11-2, the operator instructs a hand alignment operation by use of the teaching box 1. The second hand alignment command section 14 outputs, to the hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4, the hand alignment command (9-5) which indicates that the movement destination pose in the hand alignment is data of the second pose memory section. A check is made in steps S11-3, S11-5 and S11-7 for the identity for command. If the second hand alignment operation is selected in accordance with a decision at step S11-5, in step S11-6, the hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 fetches pose data (9-3) out of the designated second pose memory section 16, and fetches position data (9-1) out of the present-position data memory section 6. In step S11-9, the hand-alignment movement-amount computation section 4 prepares the movement-destination position and pose data (9-2) with the fetched position data (9-1) as a movement destination position and with the fetched pose data (9-2) as a movement destination pose, and outputs the movement-destination position and pose data (9-2) to the drive section 5. That is, assuming that a present position is (Xc, Yc, Zc), a stored pose is (Am, Bm Cm), and movement-destination position and pose due to the computing results are (X, Y, Z, A, B, C), the following relations are produced: X = Xc Y = Yc Z = Zc A = Am B = Bm C = Cm Here, the first hand alignment command section corresponds to the first pose memory section, the second hand alignment command section corresponds to the second pose memory section, and the n th hand alignment command section corresponds to the n th pose memory section. Lastly, in step S11-10, the drive section 5 drives the robot 8 to the movement-destination position and pose. A fourth example of a control system will be described below with reference to Figs. 12 through 16. Fig. 12 is a block diagram showing hand alignment operation according to the fourth example. In Fig. 12, a teaching box 1 is provided with a hand alignment command section 2 which commands hand alignment. The reference numeral 3 denotes a control unit for a robot. A hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 computes an amount of movement of each axis of the robot at the hand alignment operation. A drive section 5 commands operation directly to a robot body 8. A current-position or present-position data memory section 6 stores therein a present position of a hand of the robot, which is resulted from driving of the robot. A present-pose data memory section 7 stores therein a present pose of the hand of the robot, which is resulted from driving of the robot. A first pose memory section 9 is provided in which pose data of the hand required for the teaching operation are stored. A pose data modifying section 10 changes or modifies data of the pose memory sections. A pose memory command section 11 instructs modification to the pose data modifying section 10. A second pose memory section 16 is provided in which the pose data of the hand required for the teaching operation are stored. An nth pose memory section 17 is provided in which the pose data of the hand required for the teaching operation are stored. A pose number command section 18 instructs a pose number which indicates the pose memory section corresponding to the pose memory command and the hand alignment command. A pose-number memory section 19 is also provided which stores therein a pose number. Figs. 13 through 16 describe Fig. 12 from the viewpoint of software. Fig. 13 illustrates a data structure. Fig. 14 illustrates a flow (F14) of a program in case of the pose number command. Fig. 15 illustrates a flow (F15) of the program in case of the pose memory commands, while Fig. 16 illustrates a flow (F16) of a program in case of the hand alignment command. Operation will next be described. In Figs. 12 through 16, the drive section 5 always stores a current or present position (13-1) of the hand of the robot into the present-position data memory section 6, and stores the present pose (13-4) of the hand of the robot into the present-pose data memory section 7 as seen in steps S15-1 and S16-1. Stored in the first pose memory section 9, the second pose memory section 16 and the n th pose memory section 17 are pose data (13-3) of the hand which are required respectively for the teaching operations. An example, will be provided for explanation of the invention, where the present pose is stored as a second pose. Referring to Fig. 14, when an operator instructs the second pose by the pose number command section 18 of the teaching box 1, the pose number command is output, as seen in step S14-1. In step S14-2, the pose number command section 18 stores, in the pose number memory section 19, data (13-7) which indicate that the pose number is 2. Subsequently, with reference to Fig. 15, the operator instructs the pose memory command by use of the teaching box 1. The pose memory command section 11 outputs the pose memory command (13-6) to the pose data modifying section 10. In response to a determination that a command has been output in step S15-2, the pose data modifying section 10 fetches the pose data (9-4) out of the present-pose data memory section 7, and fetches the pose number (13-7) out of the pose number memory section 19, as seen in step S15-3. Testing of the pose number is made in steps S15-4, S15-6 and S15-8. Here, the pose number 1 corresponds to the first pose memory section, and the pose number 2 corresponds to the second pose memory section, while the pose number n corresponds to the n th pose memory section. Then in step S15-5, the pose data modifying section 10 stores the fetched pose data and pose number into the second pose memory section 16 designated by the pose number (13-7). A case will next be described where hand alignment is practiced by section of the stored second pose, with reference to Fig. 16. When the operator instructs the second pose by use of the pose number command section 18 of the teaching box 1, the pose number command section 18 stores, in the pose number memory section 19, data (13-7) which indicate that the pose number is 2. Subsequently, the operator instructs hand alignment operation by use of the teaching box 1. The hand alignment command section 14 outputs the hand alignment command (13-5) to the hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4. In step S16-2, the hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 fetches the pose number (13-7) out of the pose number memory section 19. In response to a determination that the pose number is 2, in step S16-5, the hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 fetches the pose data (13-3) out of the second pose memory section 16 which is designated by the pose number (13-7), and fetches the position data (13-1) out of the present-position data memory section 6, in step S16-6. Then, in step S16-5, the hand-alignment movement-amount computation section 4 prepares the movement-destination position and pose data (13-2) with the fetched position data (13-1) as a movement destination position and with the fetched pose data (13-3) as a movement destination pose, and outputs the movement-destination position and pose data (13-2) to the drive section 5. That is, assuming that a present position is (Xc, Yc, Zc), a stored pose is (Am, Bm Cm), and movement-destination position and pose due to the computing results are (X, Y, Z, A, B, C), the following relations are produced: X = Xc Y = Yc Z = Zc A = Am B = Bm C = Cm Lastly, in step S16-10, the drive section 5 drives the robot 8 to the movement-destination position and pose. In this connection, the operation of commanding the pose number can be omitted in cases other than the case where the pose number is switched, that is, in case where the pose number the same as the previous one is commanded.A fifth embodiment of the invention will be described below with reference to Figs. 17 through 19.

A fifth embodiment of the invention will be described below with reference to Figs. 30 through 33. Fig. 30 is a block diagram showing hand alignment operation according to the fifth embodiment. In Fig. 30, a teaching box 1 is provided with a hand alignment command section 2. The reference numeral 3 denotes a control unit for a robot. A hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 computes an amount of movement of each axis of the robot at hand alignment operation.

Moreover, it is possible for the operator to optionally select the hand alignment operation by which the stored optional pose is brought to a destination pose, and hand alignment operation by which the pose aligned on the working coordinate system is brought to a destination pose. Operation will first be described at the time the hand alignment operation by which the stored optional pose is brought to the destination pose is selected. When the operator instructs the hand alignment system in which the stored optional pose is brought to the destination pose, by the hand alignment-system command section 27 of the teaching box 1, a hand alignment system command is output, as seen in step S32-1. In response to the command, as seen in step S32-2, the hand alignment-system command section 27 stores the data (31-8) indicating the hand alignment system, into the hand alignment-system memory section 28. Subsequently, the operator instructs the hand alignment operation by use of the teaching box 1.

That is, the hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 fetches the pose data (31-3) out of the pose memory section 9, and fetches the position data (31-1) out of the present-position data memory section 6. The hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 prepares the movement-destination position and pose data (31-2) with the fetched position data (31-1) as the movement destination position and with the fetched pose data (31-3) as the movement-destination pose, and outputs the same to the drive section 5. That is, assuming that a present position is (Xc, Yc, Zc), a stored pose is (Am, Bm Cm), and movement-destination position and pose due to the computing results are (X, Y, Z, A, B, C), the following relations are produced: X = Xc Y = Yc Z = Zc A = Am B = Bm C = Cm Lastly, in step S33-7, the drive section 5 drives the robot 8 till the movement-destination position and pose. Operation will next be described at the time the hand alignment operation is selected in which the pose aligned on the working coordinate system is brought to the destination pose. When the operator instructs the hand alignment system in which the pose aligned on the working coordinate system is brought to the destination pose, by the hand alignment-system command section 27 of the teaching box 1, the hand alignment-system command section 27 stores the data (31-8) indicating the hand alignment system, into the hand alignment-system memory section 28. This is detected at decision step S33-4. When the operator instructs the hand alignment operation by section of the teaching box 1, the hand alignment command section 2 outputs the hand alignment command (31-5) to the hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4. As seen in step S33-6, the hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 fetches the data (31-8) distinguishing the hand alignment systems from each other, out of the hand alignment-system memory section 28, and judges that the fetched data are the hand alignment system in which the pose aligned on the working coordinate system is brought to the destination pose. The hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 executes the following processing. The hand alignment command section (14) outputs, to the hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4, the hand alignment command (31-5) indicating the hand alignment in which the pose aligned on the working coordinate system is brought to the destination pose. The hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 fetches the working coordinate system data (31-9) out of the working coordinate system memory section 22, fetches the position data (31-1) out of the present-position data memory section 6, and fetches the pose data (31-4) out of the present-pose data memory section 7. The hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 executes computation such that the pose of the hand is brought to parallel with or perpendicularity to each axis of X, Y and Z in the working coordinate system. The hand-alignment movement-amount computing section 4 prepares the movement-destination position and pose data (31-2), and outputs the same to the drive section 5. A computing method of the above will be described below. Generally, a position can be expressed by a matrix having three rows and one column, and a pose can be expressed by a rotating matrix having three rows and three columns, while position and pose can be expressed by a matrix having four rows and four columns. Here, it is assumed that the present position and pose expressed by the base coordinate system are (Xbc, Ybc, Zbc, Abc, Bbc, Cbc), the movement-destination position and pose expressed by the base coordinate system are (Xbd, Ybd, Zbd, Abd, Bbd, Cbd), the present position and pose expressed by the working coordinate system are (Xsc, Ysc, Zsc, Asc, Bsc, Csc), the movement-destination position and pose expressed by the working coordinate system are (Xsd, Ysd, Zsd, Asd, Bsd, Csd), the data indicating the working coordinate system on the base coordinate system are (Xs, Ys, Zs, As, Bs, Cs), the above elements expressed respectively by matrixes are Mbc, Mbd, Msc, Msd and Ms in order, ¥ is an operator expressing an integer division, * is an operator indicating a product of the matrix, and a matrix (M) -1 indicates an inverse matrix of a matrix M . Present position and pose expressed by the working coordinate system are first obtained by the coordinate transformation section from the base coordinate system to the working coordinate system, on the basis of the following equation: Msc = (Ms) -1 * Mbc Subsequently, the movement-destination position and pose expressed by the working coordinate system are computed from the present position and pose expressed by the working coordinate system, on the basis of the following equations: Xsd = Xsc Ysd = Ysc Zsd = Zsc In case of Asc ≧ 0: Asd = 90° x ((Asc + 45°)¥90°) In case of Asc < 0: Asd = 90° x ((Asc - 45°)¥90°) In case of Bsc ≧ 0: Bsd = 90° x ((Bsc + 45°)¥90°) In case of Bsc < 0: Bsd = 90° x ((Bsc - 45°)¥90°) In case of Csc ≧ 0: Csd = 90° x ((Csc + 45°)¥90°) In case of Csc < 0: Csd = 90° x ((Csc - 45°)¥90°) Subsequently, the movement-destination position and pose Mbd expressed by the base coordinate system are obtained by the coordinate transformation section from the working coordinate system to the base coordinate system, on the basis of the following equation: Mbd = Ms * Msd Lastly, the drive section 5 drives the robot 8 to the movement-destination position and pose, as seen in step S33-7. In connection with the above, the operation commanding the hand alignment system can be omitted in cases other than the case where the hand alignment system is switched, that is, in the case where the hand alignment system the same as the previous one is commanded.
