Industrial gripper with multiple degrees of freedom

摘要

An industrial gripper includes a base plate, at least three finger units to be moved relative to the base plate, a supporting unit to support the finger units, a first drive unit coupled to the supporting unit to allow simultaneous angular displacement of the finger units toward an object, and a second drive unit coupled to the supporting unit to adjust orientation angles between the finger units. Each of the finger units includes an intermediation member to be moved in a first direction by the first drive unit, a grip member to grip the object by being moved in a second direction different from the first direction as a movement direction of the intermediation member, and a connection member to convert the first direction movement of the intermediation member into the second direction movement of the grip member.
