Abstract(in English) The present report aims at the contactless power transfer to the motor at each joint in industrial articulated arm robot. Feeding cable in the arm robot to the motor cuts in around one month due to too fast and frequent rotation of each joint, and hence, it proposes to reduce cost and time for changing spare cable. We have studied the contactless power transfer through the joint region in addition to the power distribution to the motors with different power requirement towards the realization of contactless power transfer system using a disk repeater comprised of a copper disk, a wire, and the electromagnetically coupling open spiral resonator. Consequently, we have confirmed good control of power distribution to multiple loads and high transmission efficiency by simulation and measurement, reporting the result.
