    摘要: Tool coupling device with two coupling subdevices, wherein one of the coupling subdevices is intended for the distal end of a robot arm, and the other coupling subdevice is intended to be provided on a tool which can be coupled to the robot arm. The coupling subdevices are uncouplable from and to each other for the purpose of tool changing. A first of the coupling subdevices has a coupling socket extending in a coupling direction for insertion into a coupling recess of a second coupling subdevice. A plurality of ball channels are provided, within each of which a ball body is arranged as a locking body. The ball bodies are movable between a radially extended coupling position and a radially retracted release position. An actuating body for securing the ball bodies in the extended position is displaceable by an electric motor or a manual control lever.
