Claims13
A gripping device comprising:
- a chassis;
- at least one first finger element mounted pivotably on the chassis;
- a single drive;
- a force transmission element coupling the single drive to the at least one first finger element, wherein the force transmission element pivots the at least one first finger element relative to the chassis about two differently oriented pivot axes, wherein at least one second finger element is mounted pivotably on the chassis and is coupled to the single drive in such a way that, proceeding from a rest position, and depending on a direction of rotation of the single drive, the first and second finger elements travel on different trajectories relative to each other, and wherein the force transmission element is rigid and configured to transmit tensile force and compressive force.
