PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a remote control system which can be miniaturized by simple construction, even having superior force-sense recognition performance and operability.SOLUTION: The remote control system includes: an operation part to be operated by an operator a working part to work accompanying the operation of the operation part and an energy converter connected to the operation part and the working part respectively. The energy converter comprises: a first converter to convert mechanical energy input from the operation part into electric energy and a second converter to convert the electric energy acquired from the first converter into mechanical energy and transmit it to the working part. Both converters are set in an electric circuit. Both of the converters are set in one electric circuit, and force input to the operation part and force output from the working part are in a proportional relation. A speed converting mechanism, interposed at least in either between the operation part and the first converter or between the working part and the second converter, makes the drive speed of the first converter and second converter to be larger than the drive speed of the operation part and working part.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】優れた力覚認識性能及び操作性を有しながら、簡易な構成で小型化が可能である遠隔操作システムを提供すること。【解決手段】操作者により操作される操作部と、操作部の操作に伴って作動する作業部と、操作部及び作業部に夫々接続されたエネルギー変換機とを備え、エネルギー変換機は、操作部から入力される機械エネルギーを電気エネルギーに変換する第1の変換機と、第1の変換機から得られる電気エネルギーを機械エネルギーに変換して作業部に伝える第2の変換機とからなり、両変換機は1つの電気回路中に設けられ、操作部に入力される力と、作業部から出力される力とが比例関係にあり、操作部と第1の変換機の間又は作業部と第2の変換機の間の少なくともいずれか一方に介在された速度変換機構が、第1の変換機及び第2の変換機の駆動速度を、操作部及び作業部の駆動速度に比べて大きくする。【選択図】図5
