ABSTRACT:
A linear unit, particularly for a handling technology assembly device operatively connected to an external energy source and an external signal generator is proposed. The linear unit comprises a casing, a control valve incorporated into the casing, an actuator formed as a piston/cylinder unit and at least one guide device provided with a guide tube extended axially in parallel with the piston rod. In order to provide a closed pneumatic or hydraulic energy supply to the linear unit, the piston/cylinder unit is operatively connected by a first duct system integrated into the casing and by a second duct system integrated into the casing and the guide device to a mounting element which carries a gripper. The electric power can be supplied from the control valve via cables integrated into the casing and a second guide tube to the mounting element.
