Definitions
- the invention relates to a vacuum gripper and an automatic sales unit.
- sales units have recently become increasingly widespread. They essentially include storage units for storing items offered for sale, user interfaces and output units for issuing items requested via the user interface to a user.
- at least one robot unit is provided for moving items from the storage unit to the output unit.
- the vacuum gripper comprises at least one suction unit for sucking an article by means of a negative pressure and at least one contact element for mechanically fixing the article during suction, an improved fixation of the article on the gripper can be achieved.
- the suction unit can in particular be a suction gripper.
- a suction gripper is to be understood as meaning a flexible suction cup which reduces its extension in the direction of a sucked-in article under the influence of a negative pressure, so that the article is pulled towards the suction gripper, i.e. moves in the direction of the effective negative pressure; Conversely, in this case the associated robot arm can also be tracked towards the article.
- the contact element is arranged adjacent to the suction gripper and the suction gripper protrudes at least partially over the contact element in a first operating state in which there is no negative pressure on the suction gripper.
- the vacuum gripper approaches the article to be gripped in such a way that the mouths of the suction grippers come into contact with an outer surface of the article.
- the approach of the vacuum gripper to the article can be done with Support of a distance sensor, in particular an optical distance sensor.
- This effect can be maximized by at least temporarily aligning the vacuum gripper in such a way that the contact force acts perpendicular to the direction of the gravitational force. In this case, virtually all of the gravitational force is applied by the static friction force. Depending on the mass distribution of the article hit, a torque will typically still occur around a horizontal axis if it would result in the article tipping around this axis. This torque can be compensated for by those suction grippers that are arranged in the upper area of the vacuum gripper.
