However, when a gear reducer is used, the occurrence of bank crushing is unavoidable, which causes a decrease in the driving accuracy of the arm. In addition, in terms of miniaturization and high efficiency, this joint mechanism can obtain a relatively large reduction ratio by utilizing the difference in the number of teeth of the internal gear and the number of teeth of the external gear that meshes with it. A so-called /X-monic drive type speed reducer is used, and it has a rotation angle-load torque characteristic as shown in FIG. a-
In part b, backlash occurs for about 3 minutes at the minimum due to the meshing gap of the gears. Assuming this for an arm with a total length of 1 m, the tip would be equivalent to 0.9 mm.
