Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a tool that can be attached to a robotic end effector for use in applying a fluid onto a prescribed number of surfaces with a desired level of precision.SOLUTION: An apparatus may comprise a base 202 having a prescribed number of channels, a prescribed number of flexible members 218 extending from the base, and an applicator 211 extending from the base on the same side as the prescribed number of flexible members. A flexible member among the prescribed number of flexible members has a fluid channel connected to at least one of the prescribed number of channels in the base to allow a fluid flowing through the prescribed number of channels to flow out of the fluid channel. The applicator may be configured to apply the fluid flowing out of the prescribed number of flexible members onto a prescribed number of surfaces. 【課題】所望のレベルの精度で、所定数の表面上への流体の塗布に使用するために、ロボットエンドエフェクタに取り付け可能な器具を提供する。【解決手段】装置は、所定数のチャネルを備えているベース部202と、前記ベース部から延びる所定数の可撓性部材218と、前記所定数の可撓性部材と同じ側で、前記ベース部から延びる塗布要素211と、を含んでいてもよい。所定数の可撓性部材の一つの可撓性部材は、ベース部の所定数のチャネルの少なくとも一つに接続した流体チャネルを備え、前記所定数のチャネルを介して流れる流体の、前記流体チャネルからの流出を可能にする。塗布要素は、所定数の可撓性部材から流出する流体を、所定数の表面上に塗布するように構成できる。【選択図】図2
