Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) The charged frame ESD is a hazard of mobile robots. When a driving robot is charged by triboelectrification, and its metallic part comes into contact with a grounded metal object, electromagnetic noise generated by the sharp discharge may cause the robot to malfunction. The EMC standard of electrically powered wheelchairs (ISO 7176-21) independently provides a immunity test method that deals with charged frame ESD. When performed according to the test procedure, charged frame ESD testing may fail or produce wrong results depending on the materials of the insulating support used for floor-standing equipment. This report is the second on our studies on ESD immunity test methods for personal care robots, it investigates requirements for robot supports used for charged frame ESD tests and provides information useful for the determination of the test method and actual tests.
