Abstract
A gripper arm, and a method for its manufacture, is provided for grasping, holding and guiding objects, for example, bottle-like containers. A rotatably mounted control cam may move a gripping section of the gripper arm from an open position into a gripping position. The gripper arm may have a bore hole for supporting a bearing pin for pivotably mounting the gripper arm, a seating for an opening structure for moving the gripping section of the gripper arm from the gripping position into the open position, and a suspension structure for cushioning and equalizing the force and deflection exerted on the gripper arm by the control cam. So that the gripper arm remains sufficiently free of contaminants and germs, the suspension structure may include a spring bar integrally formed in an end section of the gripper arm body.
