Robot gripper and manipulating robot

This invention describes a robot gripper designed to handle items like suitcases. It uses a flat carrying surface and a movable top part that can push the item along. The top part also includes a switchable mechanism, such as suction cups or an electromagnet, to securely hold the item in place, and this holding mechanism can rotate.

Why it matters: Since 2011, the cost and capabilities of robotic arms and their control systems have significantly improved, making complex manipulation tasks, especially for varied baggage, more economically viable. The integration of multiple gripping technologies and precise movement would benefit from these advancements.
