Abstract

A brake triggering device for a robot arm is provided in the invention, and the brake triggering device includes a controlling plate with an enhanced structural strength by its annularly symmetrical structure. By designating an end of the ring-shaped controlling plate as a pivot and actuating the opposite end, a movable end, with a solenoid, pressing protrusions protruding from the two sides of an inner rim of the controlling plate can provide a greater torque for braking.
