Design of Enlarging Vacuum Gripper Using Slider Crank Mechanism

摘要

Varieties of robotic grippers are developed with high flexibility and multi-functional approaches. In this paper, the study and design of an innovative approach of a gripper for handling variable size, shape and weight is proposed. This paper proposes a gripper that is capable of changing the distance between its two opposite grippers. For this purpose, we use slider crank mechanism which is actuated by servo motors. The paper gives a deep understanding and the use of this type of gripper.
