Gripping device and robots with a gripping device

Abstract

The present invention relates to a gripping device (1), in particular an electromagnetic gripping device (1) for a robot, for gripping an object, comprising a lifting magnet (10) with a magnet housing (12) and a gripping unit (30), wherein an armature (14) movable in a longitudinal axis (L) and an electromagnetic excitation system (16) for actuating the armature (14) are arranged in the magnet housing (12), wherein the gripping unit (30) comprises an actuating rod (40) movable in the longitudinal axis (L) and at least one finger (50) movable about a pivot axis (X), wherein the at least one finger (50) is mechanically coupled to the actuating rod (40) such that the movement of the actuating rod (40) is converted into a pivoting movement of the at least one finger (50) for gripping the object.wherein the gripping unit (30) is arranged on the magnetic housing (12) along the longitudinal axis (L) and wherein the actuating rod (40) is mechanically connected to the armature (14). Furthermore, the present invention relates to a robot with such a gripping device (1).
