PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an industrial robot designed so as to easily mount a gas-spring type balancer on the robot.SOLUTION: The industrial robot includes: a base part 1; an arm part 2; and a balancer device 110 turnably connected to the base part 1 and the arm part 2 and applying repulsion force in a direction opposite to a direction of load acting to a turn axis 4 by gravitational force. The balancer device 110 includes: a balancer 10 which has a cylinder 11 and a piston rod 12, and in which the end part of the cylinder 11 and the end part of the piston rod 12 are turnably connected respectively to the arm part 2 and to the base part 1; a connection member 30 mounted on a support part 1a of the base part 1 and turnably supporting a balancer end part 16 to the support part 1a; and fastening means 8 for fastening a first end surface 33b formed on the connection member 30 and a second end surface 16a formed on the balancer end part 16, and pushing the piston rod 12 into the cylinder 11 via the fastening force thereof. |
