Abstract In recent years, more and more attention has been paid to Human-Robot Collaborative Disassembly (HRCD) in the field of industrial remanufacturing. Compared with the traditional manufacturing, HRCD helps to improve the manufacturing flexibility with considering the manufacturing efficiency. In HRCD, knowledge could be obtained from the disassembly process and then provides useful information for the operator and robots to execute their disassembly tasks. Afterwards, a crucial point is to establish a knowledge-based system to facilitate the interaction between human operators and industrial robots. In this context, a knowledge recommendation system based on knowledge graph is proposed to effectively support Human-Robot Collaboration (HRC) in disassembly. A disassembly knowledge graph is constructed to organize and manage the knowledge in the process of HRCD. After that, based on this, a knowledge recommendation procedure is proposed to recommend disassembly knowledge for the operator. Finally, the case study demonstrates that the developed system can effectively acquire, manage and visualize the related knowledge of HRCD, and then assist the human operator to complete the disassembly task by knowledge recommendation, thus improving the efficiency of collaborative disassembly. This system could be used in the human-robot collaboration disassembly process for the operators to provide convenient knowledge recommendation service.

Die Mensch-Roboter-Kooperation erlaubt es, in einem bestimmten Ausmaß zu automatisieren und gleichzeitig Flexibilität zu erhalten. Für einen flexiblen Einsatz von Robotern muss aber insbesondere der Programmieraufwand gering gehalten werden. Die Zusammenarbeit von Roboter und Mensch birgt zusätzliche Herausforderungen, wie die Zuteilung und die Abhängigkeiten der Aufgaben. Um den Nutzer bei diesen Herausforderungen zu unterstützen, wurde ein aufgabenorientiertes Programmiersystem speziell für die Mensch-Roboter-Kooperation entwickelt.   Human-robot-collaboration allows for automating production while keeping flexibility. To apply robots flexibly, the programming effort needs to be kept low. The collaboration between humans and robots brings about new challenges such as the allocation of and the dependencies between tasks. To support users with these tasks, a task-oriented programming system was developed for use in human-robot-collaboration.

To make the human-robot collaboration effective, it may be necessary to provide robots with “senses” like vision and hearing. Task-oriented man-machine speech communication often relies on the use of abstract terms to describe objects. Therefore it is necessary to correctly map those terms into images of proper objects in a camera’s field of view. This paper presents the results of our research in this field. A novel method for contour identification, based on flexible editable contour templates (FECT), has been developed. We demonstrate that existing methods are not appropriate for this purpose because it is difficult to formulate general rules that humans employ to rank shapes into proper classes. Therefore, the rules for shape classification should be individually formulated by the users for each application. Our aim was to create appropriate tool facilitating formulation of those rules as it could potentially be a very labor-intensive task. The core of our solution is FCD (flexible contour description) format for description of flexible templates. Users will be able to create and edit flexible contour templates, and thus, adjust image recognition systems to their needs, in order to provide task-oriented communication between humans and robots.
