Abstract
A cable harness management module includes a base plate and a rotatable element which matches with and can rotate relative to the base plate. The base plate and the rotatable element form a space for receiving the cable harness including a first end and a second end. The cable harness management module has a first fastening member for fastening the first end onto the base plate, and a second fastening member for fastening member for fastening the second end onto the rotatable element. The cable harness can reel on or off the rotatable element when the rotatable element rotates with the robot joint. The cable harness management module may also include a mounting member for removably mounting the base plate to the robot joint. The cable harness management module protects the cable harness inside the compact space from abrasion and lengthen the lifetime of the cable harness.
