Abstract:
A robot system including a force-controlled pushing device which causes, when a robot is guided and moved, an object provided at a tip end of the robot to be brought into appropriate contact with another object. The robot system includes the robot, the force-controlled pushing device, a robot operation input measuring part, a robot movement command calculating part, a pushing direction setting part, a target pushing force setting part, a force measuring part, and a force-controlled pushing device movement command calculating part. The pushing direction setting part sets a pushing direction of the force-controlled pushing device, based on at least one of: the position/orientation of the first object; a force-controlled pushing device movement command for moving the first object; the position/orientation of the movement mechanism part of the force-controlled pushing device; the position/orientation of the robot; and a robot movement command for moving the robot.

Claim (Index 1):
A robot system for causing a robot and a force-controlled pushing device provided at a tip end of the robot to control a force acting between a tool and a workpiece, so as to move the tool and the workpiece relative to each other, wherein\n the robot system comprises: the robot; the force-controlled pushing device comprising a movement mechanism part, which holds a first object, i.e., one of the tool and the workpiece, and moves the first object by controlling a force acting between the first object and a second object, i.e., the other of the tool and the workpiece, so as to push the first object, in a predetermined pushing direction, by a predetermined target pushing force; a robot operation input measuring part for measuring a robot operation input for moving/operating the robot; a robot movement command calculating part for calculating, based on the robot operation input measured by the robot operation input measuring part, a robot movement command, i.e., a movement command for the robot; a force-controlled pushing device's pushing direction setting part for setting the pushing direction of the force-controlled pushing device; a force-controlled pushing device's target pushing force setting part for setting the target pushing force of the force-controlled pushing device; a force-controlled pushing device's force measuring part for measuring a force acting between the tool and the workpiece; and a force-controlled pushing device movement command calculating part for calculating, based on the pushing direction set by the force-controlled pushing device's pushing direction setting part, the target pushing force set by the force-controlled pushing device's target pushing force setting part, and a force measured by the force-controlled pushing device's force measuring part, a force-controlled pushing device movement command, i.e., a movement command for the movement mechanism part of the force-controlled pushing device, wherein the force-controlled pushing device's pushing direction setting part sets a pushing direction of the force-controlled pushing device, based on at least one of the position, orientation, or position and orientation of the first object, the force-controlled pushing device movement command for moving the first object, the position, orientation, or position and orientation of the movement mechanism part of the force-controlled pushing device, the position, orientation, or position and orientation of the robot, or the robot movement command for moving the robot.
