ABSTRACT:
A gripping mechanism has a rotating cam directly acting upon at least one cam follower plate in such a manner that the rotating cam provides reciprocating motion up and down to and from an operating surface, sweeping forward motion along the operating surface, and a lateral actuating force that, in cooperation with at least one actuating surface, opens a pair of gripping surfaces while approaching the operating surface, and close same gripping surfaces prior to lifting away from the operating surface.
