Abstract

See full text

A protective casing of a gripper for industrial automation is described, having two or more jaws, which makes the gripper also usable in clean-room. The casing comprises a base fixable to an outer actuator, for example a robotic arm, and a dome. The dome and the base are air tightly constrainable one to another and they together define a chamber for housing the gripper. The dome is provided with through slots at the jaws of the gripper; the edges of the through slots air tightly adhere to the corresponding jaw. At least the portion of the dome at the through slots is elastically deformable to follow the movements of the jaws. Preferably, the dome and the base are coupled and flush in order to limit or prevent particles or dust from building up between interstices.
