Abstract
A robotic arm is provided. The robotic arm includes a gripper. The gripper includes an elongated body; a semi-circular body includes a flat surface and a curved surface; a suction unit of a pre-defined shape operatively coupled to a center portion of the curved surface of the semi-circular body; an array of pins arranged around the suction unit, wherein each of the array of pins comprises a pin body and a pin head, wherein the head rests along the flat surface of the semi-circular body, wherein the pin body is extended along the curved surface of the semi-circular body. The array of pins is configured to take a shape of a target object to provide support for the target object during an operation of the robotic arm. The suction unit is configured to hold the target object in an inward direction during the operation of the robotic arm.
Claims6
A robotic arm comprising a gripper, the gripper comprising:
- an elongated body;
- a semi-circular body comprising a first surface and a second surface;
- a suction unit of a pre-defined shape operatively coupled to a center portion of a curved surface of the semi-circular body;
- an array of at least ten pins arranged radially around the suction unit, wherein each of the array of pins comprises a pin body and a pin head, wherein the pin head rests along the first surface of the semi-circular body, wherein the pin body is extended along the curved surface of the semi-circular body;
- wherein each pin of the array is independently movable such that the array of pins is configured to adapt in a pre-set direction to take a shape of at least one target object to provide support for the at least one target object during an operation of the robotic arm;
- and
- wherein the suction unit is configured to hold at least one target object in an inward direction during the operation of the robotic arm.
