Method For Stress-Free Assembly Of Components

View page
US Patent:
6378190, Apr 30, 2002
Filed:
Dec 11, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/734534
Inventors:
Hadi A. Akeel - Rochester Hills MI
Assignee:
FANUC Robotics North America, Inc. - Rochester Hills MI
International Classification:
B23Q 1700
US Classification:
2940708, 294071, 29714, 7449001
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for compliant positioning of an object during an assembly operation wherein the apparatus includes a base plate, a locator plate for mounting an object such as a clamp or a tool spaced from the base plate and a plurality of linear actuators connected between the base plate the locator plate by universal joints providing six degrees of freedom of movement. According to the apparatus and the method a control is connected to the actuators for selectively moving the locator plate to a predetermined position relative to the base plate for contacting a component to be assembled with an object mounted on the locator plate. Two or more of the actuators can be mechanically coupled to move the locator plate with less than six degrees of freedom. The control is responsive to a force applied to the locator plate through the object during assembly of the component for actuating the linear actuators to change the applied force.

6477913, Nov 12, 2002
Filed:
Nov 22, 1994
Appl. No.:
08/343228
Inventors:
Hadi Abu Akeel - Sterling Heights MI
Antoni J. Malarz - Troy MI
Assignee:
Fanuc Robotics North America, Inc. - Rochester Hills MI
International Classification:
B25J 1900
US Classification:
744903, 414680, 901 23, 901 49, 901 43
Abstract:
A multi-axis electric spraying robot adapted for use in a hazardous environment includes a base having a first pressurized compartment and an arm assembly having a second pressurized compartment in which compartments electric motors are respectively located. The arm assembly is supported for movement on the base at one end thereof. The arm assembly includes a wrist adapted for connecting the opposite end of the arm assembly with a spraying tool. One electric motor is provided to drive each axis. The compartments are pressurized to prevent flammable gases or vapors from entering the first and second compartments during operation of the robot.

An intelligent power assisted manual manipulator controllable by operator inputs from an operator for moving an object is provided. The manipulator includes a movable base supporting a lift mechanism for moving the object. The manipulator also includes at least one servomotor for actuating at least one of the movable base and the lift mechanism for moving the object. An operator control mechanism for receiving the operator inputs is supported on the lift mechanism. A plurality of force sensors are disposed between the operator control mechanism and the lift mechanism for sensing said operator inputs and actuating at least one of the at least one servomotor. The movable base includes an overhead rail defining a generally horizontal first axis and a carriage supported on the overhead rail and movable along the first axis. The lift mechanism includes a turret assembly supported on the carriage having a generally vertical second axis, and a generally horizontal third axis. The carriage has first and second elongated portions in opposing generally horizontal planes and third and fourth elongated portions in generally vertical planes.

Servo Spot Welding Control System And Method Of Welding Workpieces

View page
US Patent:
6768078, Jul 27, 2004
Filed:
Jan 9, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/339047
Inventors:
Frank Garza - Rochester Hills MI
Jason Tsai - Bloomfield Hills MI
Hadi Akeel - Vienna VA
Brad Niederquell - Troy MI
Assignee:
FANUC Robotics North America, Inc. - Rochester Hills MI
International Classification:
B23K 1111
US Classification:
219 87, 901 42
Abstract:
A servo spot welding control system and method to efficiently weld a pair of workpieces together. The system includes a robot movable about the workpieces, a weld gun, servomotors, a transformer, and a controller. The weld gun is mounted on the robot and includes at least two pairs of electrodes. Each pair of electrodes includes a stationary electrode and a moveable electrode. The servomotors are operatively connected to the movable electrodes. The controller actuates the robot to move the robot into position. The controller also actuates the servomotors to clamp the workpieces and to selectively sequence electric current from the transformer to form multiple spot welds on the workpieces.
