Tool for a microtechnical clip

摘要

The present invention relates to a tool for a microtechnical gripper. The tool of the invention includes a tip having a support and first and second fingers disposed opposite one another in a chosen position. Each finger is connected to the support by a connecting element so as to be held in a rest position corresponding to the chosen position, the connecting element being flexible in order to allow the fingers to move with at least one degree of freedom relative to the support.

主权项

1. A tool for a microtechnical gripper, the tool comprising a tip having:
a support; and a first finger and a second finger, each finger having a fixing base by which it is to be fixed to a microactuator arm in order to position the fingers side by side in respective starting positions, which are defined relative to at least one direction of actuation of the microactuator arm,wherein each finger is connected to said support by a respective flexible connecting element which is arranged so as to maintain the finger in a rest position corresponding to its starting position, the connecting element being chosen with stiffness properties that define a compromise between the need to limit the deflection of the connecting element under the weight of the associated finger, whatever the orientation of the finger in space, and the necessity of allowing the finger in question to move relative to the support in the direction or directions of actuation of said arms of the microtechnical gripper; and
a transmission plate connected electrically to the support of the tip.
