Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9100555A1] A low cost robot (10) is constructed using a constant speed motor (12) which drives a gear box (14) having two output shafts (16, 18) which rotate in opposite directions. Each of the shafts (16, 18) has a brake disk (20) thereon and independently rotatable about the shaft (16, 18) is a brake caliper (26, 54) assembly which is in turn connected via a chain (42, 58) to a tool bearing member (48) to be moved. By variously activating one, the other or both of the calipers (26, 54), position and speed of the tool arm 50) can be exactly controlled. More than one arm or axis may be controlled off of the motor (12) leading to further economies of manufacture.
