ABSTRACT:
A container gripper, in particular for bottles, which is positionable on a movable part of a manipulating machine, and comprises a support structure internally carrying a pair of arms driven to rotate between a closed rest position in which they face each other to retain the container, and an open position in which they are withdrawn from each other to release the container; the support structure includes a U-shaped bracket (15) supporting a block (18) rotatable about the bracket, the arms being pivoted to the block and carrying, pivoted to the opposite end to their gripping end, a pair of connecting rods for rotating the arms, one of the connecting rods extending into a right-angled lever which can engage a cam fixed relative to the movable part of the manipulating machine, the connecting rods (31) being pivoted at their other ends to a pin slidable within a seat in the block by way of an interposed elastic element which when at rest maintains the arms in a closed position.
