ROBOT JOINT MECHANISM AND ROBOT

摘要

A robot joint mechanism includes a fixed base, a turnable portion, a first routing member, and a second routing member. The fixed base has a base bottom surface and a side wall. The base bottom surface and the side wall define an inner space. The turnable portion is disposed in the inner space and turnable about a vertical axis approximately perpendicular to the base bottom surface. The first routing member includes a first bent portion bent in a first bending direction along a bottom surface of the turnable portion and routed between the turnable portion and the side wall. The second routing member is routed through a position inner than the first bent portion, and includes a second bent portion bent in a second bending direction different from the first bending direction.
