# Sealed straight line gripper

## Abstract

A straight line motion gripper employs a longitudinally moving piston head, a laterally moving slide and a drive pin moving the slide in response to movement of the piston head. The drive pin is mounted to the piston head and disposed at an angle. Another aspect of the present invention provides a booster spring to maintain a pair of gripper arms in gripping positions even when pneumatic pressure is lost.
