【日本《应用机械工学》1979年9月报道】在核能领域,需要对放射性物质进行处理、在放射性环境下进行维修作业的设备很多,因此,很早就开始发展远距离操作技术。机械手的研制始于四十年代中期;各种远距离操作技术基本概念的研究工作始于五十年代中期。随着核能发展规模的急剧扩大,人们对核设施工程本身的安全性,在核设施 [Japan’s “Applied Mechanical Engineering” reported in September 1979] In the nuclear energy field, there are many equipments that require the handling of radioactive materials and maintenance operations in a radioactive environment. Therefore, long-distance operation technologies have been developed very early. The development of manipulators began in the mid-1940s; research work on the basic concepts of various long-distance operation technologies began in the mid-fifties. With the rapid expansion of the scale of nuclear energy development, people’s safety on the nuclear facilities project itself, in nuclear facilities
