GRIPPING MECHANISMS, APPARATUS, AND METHODS

摘要

The present invention provides grasping mechanisms, gripper apparatus/systems, and related methods. Grasping mechanisms (20) that include stops, support surfaces (40), and height adjusting surfaces (45) to determine three translational axis positions of a grasped object are provided. In addition, grasping mechanisms that are resiliently coupled to other gripper apparatus components are also provided.
