Gripper for robot hand capabel of adaptive grasp
Disclosed is a gripper for robot hand capable of adaptive grasp, including a finger unit having one or more finger which includes a first link of which one end is rotatably fixed to a casing; a second link of which one end is jointly coupled with the other end of the first link; a third link of which one end is rotatably fixed to the casing, which is operated by receiving a driving force from the outside; a fourth link of which one end is jointly coupled with the other end of the third link; and a gripping member jointly coupled with the other end of the second link and the other end of the fourth link.
1. A gripper for robot hand capable of adaptive grasp, comprising,
a finger unit having one or more finger;
wherein the finger includes:
a first link of which one end is rotatably fixed to a casing;
a second link of which one end is jointly coupled with the other end of the first link;
a third link of which one end is rotatably fixed to the casing, which is operated by receiving a driving force from the outside;
a fourth link of which one end is jointly coupled with the other end of the third link; and
a gripping member jointly coupled with the other end of the second link and the other end of the fourth link; and
wherein a pinch grip and an encompassing grip are selectively or sequentially performed by the limitation of the driving of two members among the first link, the second link, the third link, the fourth link, and the gripping member, and
wherein a first elastic member provided between the first link and the second link or between the second link and the gripping member is biased in the direction of gripping, and a second elastic member provided between the third link and the fourth link or between the fourth link and the gripping member is biased in the opposite direction of gripping.
2. The gripper for robot hand capable of adaptive grasp of claim 1 ,
wherein the finger unit consists of a pair of fingers facing each other.
