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…
1-degree-of-freedom Robotic Gripper With Infinite Self-Twist Function
Toshihiro Nishimura, Yosuke Suzuki, Tokuo Tsuji +1
This study proposed a novel robotic gripper that can achieve grasping and infinite wrist twisting motions using a single actuator. The gripper is equipped with a differential gear…
Sensing and Control of Friction Mode for Contact Area Variable Surfaces (Friction-variable Surface Structure)
Seita Nojiri, Akihiko Yamaguchi, Yosuke Suzuki +2
Robotic hands with soft surfaces can perform stable grasping, but the high friction of the soft surfaces makes it difficult to release objects, or to perform operations that requir…
Soft robotic hand with finger-bending/friction-reduction switching mechanism through 1-degree-of-freedom flow control
Toshihiro Nishimura, Kensuke Shimizu, Seita Nojiri +4
This paper proposes a novel pneumatic soft robotic hand that incorporates a mechanism that can switch the airflow path using a single airflow control. The developed hand can contro…
