ABSTRACT:
A picking tool employs a changeable end effector having first and second operative portions. A changing member allows selection of the first or the second portions for deployment during picking, such that the picking tool can be changed to different configurations of end effectors for varied uses. The changing member provides a locked position where the end effector is locked onto the picking tool for use and an unlocked position whereby the end effector may be removed and repositioned to present a different portion for operative use.
