Sensor-Less and Control-Less Underactuated Grippers With Pull-In Mechanisms for Grasping Various Objects

This paper proposes an underactuated grippers mechanism that grasps and pulls in different types of objects. These two movements are generated by only a single actuator while two independent actuators are used in conventional grippers. To demonstrate this principle, we have developed two kinds of gr...
