Abstract
An arrangement for handling packaging units, such as bottles, crates and the like with the aid of a robot, wherein the arrangement includes a mounting part () which is adapted for fixation to a robot arm, a tool carrier () which is adapted to carry one or more handling tools () such as a number of bottle grippers or the like, and a number of couplings each comprising a first engagement member () affixed to the mounting part, and a second engagement member () affixed to the tool carrier, wherein the second engagement member is restrictively displaceable axially relative to the first engagement member, so that the second engagement member will take a latching position relative to the first engagement member under the effect of gravity on the tool carrier in engagement with the first engagement member, wherein the working state of the tool carrier relative to the mounting part is defined when all second engagement members are in their respective latching positions.
