ABSTRACT:
A robot gripping device 10 for holding and gripping a variety of electronic components. The robot gripping device comprises a guide frame 12, a drive motor 34 and gripping blocks 24, 26 having fingers 42, 44. Finger 42 has prongs 66, 68 and 70 on fingertip 60. Finger 44 has prongs 76 and 78 on fingertip 62. The fingertips 60, 62 accommodate axial resistor-type components at v-grooves 80 and radial capacitor-type components are accommodated by fingertip portions 82, 84, 85 and 86. Cylindrical can shaped components are accommodated by a slight beveling at fingertip portions 82, 84, 85 and 86 as well as a set back of portion 83 on prong 68. The fingers are capable of controlled movements to various centered positions by means of motor 34. When the fingers are brought together they interlock.
