  • Publication number: 20190111573
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a cam-type hand mechanism including a three-dimensional cam and claw portions configured to open and close in association with a rotary motion of the three-dimensional cam, and requiring minimum replacement parts to reduce maintenance costs and prevent or reduce upsizing in association with multifunctionality of the hand mechanism. A cam pedestal member includes a plurality of three-dimensional cams including a plurality of cam guiding surfaces continuing over a range from a through hole provided at a center of a cam base portion to an outer peripheral side, and being formed upright at a plurality of positions. The cam base portion includes coupling portions coupling the cam pedestal member directly or indirectly to a rotor shaft at plurality of positions in gap areas between radially inner ends and radially outer ends of the adjacent three-dimensional cams.
