Robot control device and robot system
A robot control device that controls operation of a robot having an actuator includes a casing, an actuator driver, a drive-control board, a main control board, a main power supply board, a vent passage, a cooling fan, and a holding member.
1. A robot control device that controls operation of a robot having an actuator, the device comprising:
an actuator driver that drives the actuator;
a cover;
a drive-control board that controls operation of the actuator driver;
a control board that controls operation of the drive-control board;
a power supply board that supplies power to the drive-control board and the control board;
a vent passage defined by the drive-control board, the control board, the power supply board, and the cover, each of which serves as a side wall of a passage so that the vent passage has a rectangular cross section and extends substantially linearly;
a cooling fan that is arranged at an end of the vent passage and causes air to flow through the vent passage; and
a holding member that is provided in the vent passage and holds the actuator driver,
wherein the holding member is provided on the cover.
2. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the actuator driver has a heat radiating surface, and wherein the holding member holds the actuator driver so that the heat radiating surface extends substantially parallel with an air vent direction in the vent passage.
3. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the cover has an opening through which the actuator driver is removable, and wherein the opening is selectively opened and closed with a side plate.
