Abstract
A robot gripper includes a first gripper finger and at least one second gripper finger, a gripper main body, a base element mounted for rotation about a first rotational axis relative to the gripper main body by a first rotary joint, and an intermediate element mounted for rotation relative to the base element by a second rotary joint. The gripper further includes a finger carrier carrying the first gripper finger and mounted for rotation relative to the intermediate element by a third rotary joint, namely about a third rotational axis, and a drive device that is separate from the first, second, and third rotary joints. The drive device is supported against the gripper main body and is configured to adjust the finger carrier relative to the second gripper finger with a drive force that is introduced into the finger carrier by the drive device.
