The claims below are in addition to those above.
All refrences to claim(s) which appear below refer to the numbering after this setence.
1. An enclosure comprising:
an internal space that accommodates therein a robot controller;
an opening that is formed in part of an external wall having predetermined environmental resistance;
a pull-out connector base that comprises a first connector for connecting an external cable for the robot controller and closes the opening in a retracted state; and
a relay cable that connects a second connector as a connector of the robot controller and the first connector, wherein
the relay cable has a length that allows a connecting part between the first connector and the external cable to be exposed outside the external wall when the connector base is pulled out.
2. The enclosure according to claim 1, further comprising a ground wire whose base end is fixed to the internal surface of the external wall and the other end is connected to the connector base, wherein
the ground wire has a length that allows the wire to be fully stretched while the relay cable is not when the connector base is pulled out.
3. The enclosure according to claim 1, wherein the connector base has a nearly rectangular frame body in the top view.
4. The enclosure according to claim 2, wherein the connector base has a nearly rectangular frame body in the top view.
5. The enclosure according to claim 3, wherein
the connector base further comprises a lid that closes the opening in the retracted state,
the first connector is provided on a side of the frame body on the robot controller side,
the lid is provided on a side opposite the side on the robot controller side, and
the lid comprises first sealing members that maintain sealability between the external cable connected to the first connector and the lid.
6. The enclosure according to claim 4, wherein
the connector base further comprises a lid that closes the opening in the retracted state,
the first connector is provided on a side of the frame body on the robot controller side,
the lid is provided on a side opposite the side on the robot controller side, and
the lid comprises first sealing members that maintain sealability between the external cable connected to the first connector and the lid.
7. The enclosure according to claim 5, wherein the lid is formed by bending both long sides of a rectangular metallic plate in the same direction along a line by a certain distance from the sides, and the lid has a surface opposite the bending direction that makes contact with the external wall in the retracted state.
8. The enclosure according to claim 6, wherein the lid is formed by bending both long sides of a rectangular metallic plate in the same direction along a line by a certain distance from the sides, and the lid has a surface opposite the bending direction that makes contact with the external wall in the retracted state.
9. The enclosure according to claim 5, wherein the lid further comprises a second sealing member on a part that is in close contact with the external wall in the retracted state.
10. The enclosure according to claim 6, wherein the lid further comprises a second sealing member on a part that is in close contact with the external wall in the retracted state.
11. The enclosure according to claim 7, wherein the lid further comprises a second sealing member on a part that is in close contact with the external wall in the retracted state.
12. The enclosure according to claim 8, wherein the lid further comprises a second sealing member on a part that is in close contact with the external wall in the retracted state.
13. The enclosure according to claim 1, further comprising a fixture that fixes the relay cable to the internal surface of the external wall near the second connector.
14. An enclosure comprising:
accommodating means that has predetermined environmental resistance and accommodates therein a robot controller;
communicating means that is provided in part of the accommodating means and communicates between the inside and the outside of the enclosure;
closing means that includes first connecting means that connects an external cable for the robot controller, is provided so that the closing means is capable of being pulled out, and closes the communicating means in a retracted state; and
relaying means that relays second connecting means provided in the robot controller and the first connecting means and allows a connecting part between the first connecting means and the external cable to be exposed outside the accommodating means when the closing means is pulled out.
15. The enclosure according to claim 14, wherein the closing means further comprises lid means that closes the communicating means in the retracted state, and
the lid means comprises first sealing means that maintains sealability between the external cable connected to the first connecting means and the lid means.
16. The enclosure according to claim 15, wherein the lid means further comprises second sealing means that maintains sealability of a part that is in close contact with the accommodating means in the retracted state.
