Pallet robot with scissor lift
The invention relates to a handling device ( 1 ), having a drive carriage ( 2 ) that is movable relative to a carrier ( 3 ), wherein a scissor lift ( 7 ) having a plurality of scissor-lift members ( 8 ) is arranged with its first end on the drive carriage ( 2 ), wherein a carrier plate ( 11 ) that is movable relative to the drive carriage ( 2 ) by means of the scissor lift ( 7 ) is arranged at the second end of the scissor lift ( 7 ), wherein: a gripping tool is arranged on the carrier plate ( 11 ), the scissor-lift members ( 8 ) are hollow throughout and are sealingly interconnected in order to actuate the gripping tool by means of a gaseous medium.
1. A manipulator comprising:
a carriage movable along a beam,
a support plate movable relative to the carriage;
a grab on the support plate;
a scissor lift mechanism that has multiple scissor members and a first end on the carriage and a second end on the support plate, the scissor members being of a continuously hollow design and sealingly connected to one another in order to actuate the grab by a gaseous medium; and
a compressor on the carriage for compressing air as the gaseous medium and feeding the compressed air through the hollow scissor members to the grab.
2. A manipulator comprising:
a carriage movable along a beam,
a support plate movable relative to the carriage;
a grab on the support plate; and
a scissor lift mechanism that has multiple scissor members and a first end on the carriage and a second end on the support plate, the scissor members being of a continuously hollow design and sealingly connected to one another in order to actuate the grab by a gaseous medium; and
means on the carriage for creating in the gaseous medium a subatmospheric pressure.
3. The manipulator according to claim 2 , further comprising:
at least one vacuum-operable suction cup on the support plate.
4. A manipulator comprising:
a carriage movable along a beam,
a support plate movable relative to the carriage;
a grab on the support plate; and
a scissor lift mechanism that has multiple scissor members and a first end on the carriage and a second end on the support plate, the scissor members being of a continuously hollow design and sealingly connected to one another in order to actuate the grab by a gaseous medium; and
at least one electric cable inside some of the scissor members of the scissor lift mechanism.
5. A manipulator comprising:
a carriage movable along a beam,
a support plate movable relative to the carriage;
a grab on the support plate;
a scissor lift mechanism that has multiple scissor members and a first end on the carriage and a second end on the support plate, the scissor members being of a continuously hollow design and sealingly connected to one another in order to actuate the grab by a gaseous medium; and
a releasable connection between one of the scissor members and the support plate.
