Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022238197A1] The invention relates to a manipulating device (1), by which flexible flat objects (2) can be repositioned and which has a movable gripping device (4) which comprises a support structure (14) and at least one gripping unit (24a, 24b). The gripping unit (24a, 24b) has a clamping arm (34) which, together with a clamping surface (32) of the support structure (14), delimits a clamping gap (25), in which a flat object portion (42) can be firmly clamped. By means of a transport structure (44) of the clamping arm (44) which is drivable for a circumferential transport movement, the flat object portion (42) can be transported into the clamping gap for subsequent clamping.
