By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning DailyNews Daily News – A patent application by the inventors SAVENLID, Nicholas (Nacka, SE); WALLGREN,Johan (Stockholm, SE), filed on Novemb er 1, 2022, was made available online on October 3, 2024,according to news repo rting originating from Washington, D.C., by NewsRx correspondents.This patent application is assigned to Atlas Copco Industrial Technique Ab (Stoc kholm, Sweden).The following quote was obtained by the news editors from the background informa tion supplied bythe inventors: “In manufacturing industry, industrial robots ma y be used to process objects by means ofpower tools. Such industrial robots are equipped with a so called end effector, which is a device attachedto the end o f the robot arm and designed to interact with the objects and/or surrounding env ironment.The end effector is usually referred to as the last link of the robot. The end effector may typically comprisethe power tool and is mounted to the ro bot arm end portion. The end effector may also comprise somekind of (energy) ac cumulator module, such as a battery, to power operation of the power tool.“The accumulator module needs to be regularly charged in order to power the powe r tool properly.The robot then typically unloads the empty accumulator module i n a charger stand, and picks up another,charged, accumulator module from the st and. This process is cumbersome and time consuming and, thus,reduces the effici ency of the manufacturing process.”
