Abstract
A robot system includes a robot having a base, a robot arm coupled to the base, a motor that drives the robot arm, a supply unit that supplies electric power to the motor, and a switch mechanism that switches between a conduction state in which the motor and the supply unit are conducting and a non-conduction state in which the motor and the supply unit are not conducting, and a vehicle having a movement mechanism that transports the robot and an operation portion that operates the switch mechanism and turns the conduction state to the non-conduction state, and being configured to take a coupled state in which the vehicle is coupled to the base and a decoupled state in which the vehicle is decoupled from the base, wherein the operation portion operates the switch mechanism in the coupled state.
