  • Patent number: 11958729
    Abstract: An attachment for a mobile handling device is configured for processing walls or ceilings. The attachment comprises a mounting unit that is arranged to be supported at a mounting interface of the handling device, a processing head that is arranged to be equipped with at least one tool for material-removing processing or smoothing processing, and a compensation arrangement that is arranged between the mounting unit and the processing head and that defines a longitudinal axis. The mounting unit provides at least two pivot positions for the attachment that are offset from one another. The processing head is movable relative to the mounting unit in a longitudinal direction along the longitudinal axis. The compensation arrangement is configured to provide a defined contact pressure force for the processing head in a defined operating range along the longitudinal axis towards the surface to be processed.

  • Publication number: 20230138196
    Abstract: The invention is based on a precision apparatus for placement into storage and/or removal from storage (54) for an at least semiautomated placement into storage and/or removal from storage of tools (10), in particular tool assemblies (12), and/or of tool chucks (14) into and/or out of a storage lift (16), with at least one holding unit (24) for tools (10), in particular tool assemblies (14), and/or tool chucks (14), which is loadable by a handling robot (18) and forms a plurality of storage bins (20, 22). It is proposed that the holding unit (24) comprises at least one form-fitting centering element (26), which is configured to interact with a centering bolt (28) and/or a centering recess for a submillimeter-precise horizontal orientation of the holding unit (24).
