Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022064260A1] The invention relates to the field of robotics, in particular, to a gripping device of a manipulator. The gripping device can be used when lifting, transporting and stacking transported free-form objects. A gripping device of a manipulator is developed, which comprises a manipulator arm attachment fitting, one main guide rail connected to the manipulator arm attachment fitting, at least one movable guide rail installed on the main guide rail and being movable along it, at least two gripping elements installed on the movable guide rail and being movable along it, wherein the device comprises a controller, as well as at least one actuator of the movable guide rail and at least one actuator of the gripping elements, which are coupled to the controller with a possibility of acquiring information about the coordinates that define the form of the objects to be gripped and coupled to the movable guide rail and the gripping elements with a possibility of moving them according to the acquired coordinates. Thus, a gripping device of a manipulator is developed, which does not depend on static friction force, the design of which ensures achieving a technical result consisting in providing automatic configuring of the device for each object of a unique form to be gripped.
