Abstract
A device for handling a load provided with a thread includes a screw assembly equipped with a gripper and capable of connecting to the load, a first screwing indicator secured to the screw assembly, a second screwing indicator movable in translation relative to the first screwing indicator, and a spring. In particular, the spring is inserted between the first screwing indicator and the second screwing indicator and has an effect of returning the second screwing indicator such that the second screwing indicator abuts against the load, so that a coincidence between the first and second screwing indicator indicates a sufficient screwing of the device onto the load.
Claims5
A device for handling a load provided with at least one thread, the device comprising:
- a screw assembly equipped with gripping means and capable of connecting to said load;
- a first screwing indicator element secured to said screw assembly;
- a second screwing indicator element movable at least in translation relative to said first screwing indicator element;
- and
- resilient return means, said resilient return means being inserted between the first screwing indicator element and the second screwing indicator element and having an effect of returning the second screwing indicator element such that the second screwing indicator element abuts against the load, so that a coincidence between the first and second screwing indicator elements indicates a sufficient screwing of the device onto said load.
