The continuous operation robotic hand mechanism of the present invention is used in a robotic object handling system and makes use of a crank mechanism attached to the gripper mechanism carriage in order to enable the drive motor to continuously operate throughout the entire carriage movement and object retrieval operations. This apparatus is configured to minimize the acceleration and deceleration required to operate the carriage mechanism as well as provide a pause of predetermined duration once the carriage has reached its furthest extent of travel in order to provide sufficient time for the finger gripper mechanism to be activated to grasp the object stored in a selected object storage location. This entire operation takes place without interrupting the operation of the drive motor to thereby minimize the power consumption, increase the speed of operation of the hand mechanism, and reduce the wear on the motor and associated components.
