Bipedal robot
First Claim
1. A bipedal robot having an electric energy storage device for operating the robot, characterized in that said electric energy storage device is mounted on an upper body of the robot such that the electric energy storage device has a center-of-gravity point present at a position upward of the center-of-gravity point of the robot from which said electric energy storage device is removed and which is in an upstanding state.

Abstract
An electric energy storage device 6 as a power supply for operating a robot is mounted on an upper body 1 of the robot at such a position that the electric energy storage device 6 has a center-of-gravity point B present upwardly and rearwardly of the center-of-gravity point A of the robot from which the electric energy storage device 6 is removed and which is in an upstanding state. Shoulders 10 of arms 3 extending from the upper body 1 of the robot have a center C positioned forwardly of the center-of-gravity point A. An imaging device 22 for robot vision is supported on an upper end of the upper body 1 of the robot by an attachment 2 which is positioned forwardly of the center-of-gravity point A. It is thus possible to achieve attitude stability with ease when the robot walks and works.

2. A bipedal robot having an electric energy storage device for operating the robot and arms extending from shoulders on an upper body of the robot, characterized in that
said electric energy storage device is mounted on the upper body of the robot such that the electric energy storage device has a center-of-gravity point present at a position rearward, in a forward and rearward direction of the robot, of the center-of-gravity point of the robot from which said electric energy storage device is removed and which is in an upstanding state, and the shoulders on the upper body of the robot, to which said arms are coupled, are disposed in a position forward, in the forward and rearward direction of the robot, of the center-of-gravity point of the robot from which said electric energy storage device is removed and which is in the upstanding state.
