The present invention concerns an industrial robot (1) comprising an upper arm (2) that can be rotated around a first axis (A), a wrist (6) supported by the upper arm that can be rotated around a second axis (B), a hollow turning device (3, 30) supported by the wrist that can be rotated around a third axis (C) that at its front end comprises a turning disk (8, 33) for attachment of a tool, at least one supply line (K) that runs along the upper arm, that the turning device (3, 30) comprises a collar section (10, 36) with a conical envelope surface (12, 45) attached to the turning disk (8, 33), through which at least one opening (14,40) is arranged for the reception of supply lines (K) that pass through the turning device, whereby the opening has an axial extension along a normal (16) perpendicular to the envelope surface (12), where the supply lines are arranged to run through the opening in a direction that has a component parallel to the third axis (C), which opening is arranged to control in a transverse direction and allow in a longitudinal direction displacement of the supply lines. The present invention relates also to a turning device for supply lines in an industrial robot with a robot arm that can be rotated, a method for drawing supply lines, use of the turning device in an industrial robot with a robot arm that can be rotated and use of the industrial robot or the turning device in a welding process. |
