Lightweight High-Speed and High-Force Gripper for Assembly
Toshihiro Nishimura, Takeshi Takaki, Yosuke Suzuki +2
This paper presents a novel industrial robotic gripper with a high grasping speed (maximum: 1396 mm/s), high tip force (maximum: 80 N) for grasping, large motion range, and lightwe…
Single-Motor Robotic Gripper With Three Functional Modes for Grasping in Confined Spaces
Toshihiro Nishimura, Tetsuyou Watanabe
This study proposes a novel robotic gripper driven by a single motor. The main task is to pick up objects in confined spaces. For this purpose, the developed gripper has three oper…
Flexible and slim device switching air blowing and suction by a single airflow control
Seita Nojiri, Toshihiro Nishimura, Kenjiro Tadakuma +1
This study proposes a soft robotic device with a slim and flexible body that switches between air blowing and suction with a single airflow control. Suction is achieved by jet flow…
High-payload and self-adaptive robotic hand with 1-degree-of-freedom translation/rotation switching mechanism
Toshihiro Nishimura, Tsubasa Muryoe, Tetsuyou Watanabe
This study proposes a novel robotic hand that can achieve self-adaptive grasping and a large payload (over 20 kg) with a single actuator. Accordingly, two novel mechanisms, an actu…
