Abstract: An optical connector includes an optical fiber, a ferrule, a plug frame, and an elastic member. The optical fiber includes a glass fiber and a resin coating surrounding the glass fiber. The ferrule has a flange outside the ferrule and a through-hole inside ferrule and holds, in the through-hole, a portion of the glass fiber exposed from the resin coating at an end of the optical fiber. The plug frame accommodates the ferrule. The elastic member abuts the flange and biases the ferrule parallel to a central axis of the through-hole toward an end face side of the ferrule where an end face of the optical fiber is exposed. The flange and the plug frame of the optical connector have a protrusion and a recess, respectively, which are configured to fit to each other. The optical connector is configured such that, when the ferrule is moved rearward in the optical axis direction, the protrusion and the recess are released from each other to bring the ferrule into a floating state relative to the plug frame.

IPC: B25J9/16
Filed: 2018-10-11
Abstract: An information processing apparatus supplies information to a robot arm that includes a holding mechanism for holding an article by suctioning the article and a moving mechanism for moving the holding mechanism. The apparatus comprises a communication interface and a controller. The controller calculates a suction point at which the holding mechanism attempts to suction the article. The suction point is calculated using an image captured by a camera. When the controller cannot calculate the suction point using the image, the controller acquires a selected region from an operation terminal operated by an operator, then recalculates the suction point on the basis of the selected region, and attempts suctioning at suction point calculated using the selected region.
