<p>A protective device is provided for a gripping device on a handling apparatus, e.g., a handling robot. The gripping device has gripping parts in the form of gripping fingers, which gripping parts are movable using a transmission mechanism. The gripping device has at least one overload safety device as the protective device which, in response to the exceeding of a certain force on the gripping device, has the effect of an evasion of the gripping device. The protective device responds exclusively in response to forces which occur from a direction and which act upon the gripping parts outside a direction of forces required for gripping objects.</p> |
