Embodiment Construction

[0050] figure 1 An embodiment of an operating device is shown, which is denoted as a whole by the reference numeral 10 . The operating device 10 includes a robot arm 12 , a grabbing module 13 for grabbing an object (not shown), and a flange plate 16 arranged between the robot arm 12 and the grabbing module 14 .

[0051] The robot arm 12 , the flange plate 16 and the handling module 14 can be connected to each other along a connection axis 18 as will be explained in more detail below.

[0052] In the example shown, the robotic arm 12 is a component of an articulated industrial robot, which is designated as a whole with the reference number 20 . As an example and as a preferred embodiment, the robotic arm 12 is substantially cylindrical and extends along a connection axis 18 . On its axial end facing the flange plate 16, the mechanical arm 12 has, in a known manner per se, an end flange 22 for connecting to the flange plate 16 (see figure 1 ).

[0053] as from figure 2 As ...

Abstract

The invention relates to an operating device (10) for operating an object, comprising: a mechanical arm having an end flange (22); a grabbing module provided with at least one terminal actuator; a flange plate arranged between the mechanical arm and the grabbing module and connected with the end flange through a first connecting device, the flange plate being connected with the grabbing module through a second connecting device. The grabbing module is electrically connected with the mechanical arm through an electric contact device. The second connecting device is a bayonet type connecting device comprising a first bayonet section arranged on the gripping module and a second bayonet section arranged on the flange plate; the electrical contact device comprises at least one electrical contact area arranged on the gripping module, and the at least one electrical contact area and the at least one opposite-side electrical contact area are constructed and arranged in such a way that the at least one electrical contact area and the at least one opposite-side electrical contact area establish an electrical connection when the flange plate is connected to the grabbing module by means of thebayonet type connection device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an operating device according to the preamble of claim 1 . Background technique [0002] Such a handling device generally includes a robotic arm and a gripping module mechanically connected to the robotic arm for gripping objects. The gripping module is also electrically connected to the robotic arm, for example for the transmission of electricity, for the transmission of control signals and / or for the transmission of measurement signals. Handling devices of this type are used for flexible handling of objects and, for example, for sorting goods in a warehouse. [0003] It is known to provide a flange plate for fastening the gripping module to the robot arm, which flange plate is screwed to the robot arm on the one hand and to the gripping module on the other hand. In such handling devices, the electrical connection between the handling module and the robot arm is then usually implemented via an external cable connection betwe...
