Bending installation and manipulator with rotatable gripper arrangement

A manipulator for components, wherein the manipulator is configured to pick up, transport, hold and set down a component, comprising:

• a base body, which can be mounted in a stationary manner or moved along a guide arrangement;
• a first pivot arm pivotally coupled to the base body via a horizontal first pivot axis;
• a second pivot arm pivotally coupled to the first pivot arm via a horizontal second pivot axis;
• and
• a third pivot arm pivotally coupled to the second pivot arm via a horizontal third pivot axis;
• wherein a first axis of rotation extending radially to the third pivot axis is formed on the third pivot arm;
• wherein a gripper support arm rotatably coupled to the third pivot arm via the first axis of rotation is formed, wherein the gripper support arm extends radially with respect to the first axis of rotation, and wherein a gripping arrangement is rotatably coupled to the gripper support arm via a second axis of rotation, which is spaced apart from the first axis of rotation,
• wherein the gripper support arm comprises a first support arm portion and a second support arm portion, the first support arm portion and the second support arm portion being arranged offset to one another in the direction of the first axis of rotation or the second axis of rotation.
