摘要 |
The invention concerns an industrial robot ( 4 ) comprising a machining tool ( 2 ) attached to one hand ( 3 ) of the robot, designed to perform a hydraulic-driven movement relative to the hand ( 3 ) and connected therefor to a hydraulic unit ( 10 ). The hydraulic unit ( 10 ) is placed directly on a mobile part of the robot, in particular directly on the robot hand ( 3 ). Therefore there is no more need for hydraulic supply lines along the arm of the robot. Further, when the robot hand ( 3 ) changes tool, no separation of hydraulic lines is required. The machining tool ( 2 ) is in particular a device for placing blind rivets, thereby enabling an entirely automated process for placing blind rivets. |
