Abstract

See full text

The present invention includes a method for the handling of articles such as packs, piece goods or the like. The method is performed with a device comprising an upper suspension, to which at least three rotatable driven actuating arms are attached. The device comprises a manipulator with one or more sets of clamping jaws for gripping the articles and which is mechanically coupled to the at least three actuating arms. A position of the manipulator can be defined by a movement of one or more of the at least three actuating arms via a linear guide. The linear guide is formed as a rotatable first shaft and connected to the manipulator in a torque proof manner. The manipulator is rotated together with the first shaft by a rotational movement of the first shaft. At least one actuating device designed as a second shaft passes through the linear guide and controls the one or more sets of clamping jaws for temporarily gripping and releasing of articles. The actuating device designed as a second shaft is rotated relative to the linear guide in order to operate the one or more clamping jaws.
