Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Aufnahme-, Halte- und/oder Handhabungsvorrichtung (10) für flächige Gegenstände (38), mit mindestens zwei steuerbaren Sauggreifern (14), die jeweils an freien Enden (16) beweglicher und zumindest in Teilbereichen elastisch verformbarer, an einer Brücke (20) gelagerter oder dort abgestützter Auslegerarme (18) angeordnet und fixiert sind, welche Auslegerarme (18) jeweils wenigstens einen Unterzug (22) und einen Oberzug (24) umfassen, die am freien Ende (16) des Auslegerarms (18) aufeinandertreffen und dort verbunden sind, wobei dem Oberzug (24) eine Zugeinrichtung (26) zur Erzeugung einer Zugkraft mit zumindest einer horizontalen Richtungskomponente ungefähr parallel zur Längserstreckungsrichtung des Auslegerarms (18) zugeordnet ist.The invention relates to a receiving, holding and / or handling device (10) for flat objects (38), with at least two controllable suction pads (14), each at free ends (16) movable and elastically deformable at least in some areas, at a Bridge (20) supported or supported there cantilever arms (18) are arranged and fixed, which cantilever arms (18) each comprise at least one beam (22) and a top (24), which meet at the free end (16) of the cantilever arm (18) and there are connected, wherein the upper pull (24) is associated with a pulling device (26) for generating a tensile force with at least one horizontal direction component approximately parallel to the longitudinal direction of the extension arm (18).

Die Erfindung betrifft weiterhin ein Verfahren zur Aufnahme, zum Halten und/oder zur Handhabung von flächigen Gegenständen (38) über mindestens zwei steuerbare Sauggreifer (14), die jeweils an freien Enden (16) beweglicher und zumindest in Teilbereichen elastisch verformbarer, an einer Brücke (20) gelagerter oder abgestützter Auslegerarme (18) angeordnet sind, welche Auslegerarme (18) jeweils wenigstens einen Unterzug (22) und einen Oberzug (24) umfassen, die am freien Ende (16) des Auslegerarms (18) aufeinandertreffen und dort verbunden sind. Zumindest der Oberzug (24) wird über eine Zugeinrichtung (26) mit zumindest einer horizontalen Richtungskomponente ungefähr parallel zur Längserstreckungsrichtung des Auslegerarms (18) bewegt.
