发明名称 Bolt-on shaft and gear system for grasping structure
摘要 A bolt-on shaft and gear system includes a body assembly defining two spaced apart mounts. A powered grasping assembly includes a first pivot pin pivotally positioned in a first of the two mounts and a first gear section fixedly coupled to the first pivot pin. An actuating driver is attached between the body assembly and the powered grasping assembly for controllably rotating the powered grasping assembly about the first pivot pin. A follower grasping assembly includes a second pivot pin pivotally positioned in a second of the two mounts and a second gear section fixedly coupled to the second pivot pin, the second gear section is meshed with the first gear section so as to rotate with the powered grasping assembly in an opposite direction.

主权项 1. A bolt-on shaft and gear system comprising: a body assembly defining a first and second mount, the first and second mounts are spaced apart from one another; a powered grasping assembly including a first pivot pin pivotally positioned in the first mount and a first gear section, the first gear section having a gear portion and a mounting block having two ends, one end of the mounting block is removably fixed to the first pivot pin, the first gear portion is directly connected to the mounting block adjacent the first pivot pin, an attachment portion, for coupling with an actuating driver, is connected with the second end of the mounting block, the attachment portion is spaced from the first end of the mounting block connected to the first pivot pin, and the mounting block extending radially outward directly from the first gear portion; an actuating driver having a first member attached on the body assembly and the actuating driver includes a second member pivotally connected to the attachment portion, spaced from the first pivot pin, of the first gear section of the powered grasping assembly, actuation of the actuating driver, via the connection between the attachment portion of the first gear section and the second member of the actuating driver, moves the first gear section, via the direct connection with the mounting block, for controllably rotating the powered grasping assembly about the first pivot pin, the connection of the actuating driver second member is spaced and separate from the first pivot pin so that the actuating driver drives the first gear section so that, in turn, the first gear section pivots around the first pivot pin; and a follower grasping assembly including a second pivot pin pivotally positioned in the second mount and a second gear section fixedly coupled to the second pivot pin, the second gear section meshing with the first gear section so as to rotate with the powered grasping assembly in an opposite direction.
