Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008125093A2] The invention relates to a device for guiding supply tubes/feeders (2) along the structure of an industrial robot (1). Said device movably guides the supply tubes/feeders (2) in a device section (3) which encompasses return motion means (10, 11) and is used for longitudinally compensating movements of several robot axes. Starting from a center of rotation (4), the supply tubes/feeders (2) are guided away in a first subsection (5) and are then guided on in a second subsection (6) in a substantially accurate and substantially circular manner and at a substantially constant distance from the center of rotation (4) in such a way that deflections of the supply tubes/feeders (2) in the first subsection (5) remain substantially static even during longitudinal compensation and the supply tubes/feeders (2) can be used at least in part as a spare length in the second subsection (6).
