摘要

The apparatus has two holders (6) arranged on two opposite sides of a frame (3) of a gripper (1), where each holder includes an arc shaped gripper blade (5). Guide wheels (7a, 7c) guide the blades and are situated between the blades. A drive moves the holders away from or toward each other, and another drive rotatingly turns outward or draws inward the blades. One of the guide wheels is designed as a pinion (7) with teeth that engage in a row (8) of holes (8a) provided in a circumferential direction of the blades.
