ABSTRACT:
A cloth gripping device including a pressing member having a portion for pressing a cloth to grip the same and a claw member for cooperating with the pressing member to grip the cloth therebetween. A pressing face is formed on the bottom of the pressing member for pressing the cloth. A retracted face is located at a position retracted by a distance corresponding to the thickness of a single cloth from the pressing face relative to the cloth. A substantially vertical gripping wall is provided by a step between the pressing face and the retracted face. A gripping groove is formed which is sufficiently wide but not too wide to receive a bent portion of the cloth therein when only one cloth is picked up adjacent a boundary between the pressing face and the retracted face. The retracted face includes a guide groove formed therein for guiding the claw member toward the gripping groove. The claw member is disposed for reciprocal movement in a direction toward the gripping wall along the guide groove whereby only one cloth can be gripped between the claw member and the gripping wall.
