Abstract
A gripper may be provided that includes a motor, a jaw guide, a wedge head, a jaw, and a finger. The jaw guide is disposed on the motor and has a guide hole and a plurality of guide grooves. The wedge head is disposed in the guide hole and is able to perform up and down reciprocating movement by the motor. The jaw is disposed in the plurality of guide grooves respectively and is connected to the wedge head. When the wedge head moves in an up and down direction, the jaw is able to perform a reciprocating movement in a direction perpendicular to the up and down direction. The finger is disposed on the jaw. When the jaw moves in the direction perpendicular to the up and down direction, the finger moves together with the jaw, so that the movement of an object is limited.
