More Information
Summary:A device (100) and method for adhering by suction to a target surface (200). The device has a substrate (20) with a contact surface (20a) for contacting the device (100) to the target surface (200). A pocket (10) is formed by a pocket surface (10a) concavely extending into the contact surface (20a). The pocket (10) has an open side (10b) facing and being closed off by the target surface (200). A flexible membrane (15) forms at least part of the pocket surface (10a). An actuator (40) is configured to actuate the flexible membrane (15). A one-way valve (30) through the pocket surface (10a) is configured to direct a contents of the pocket (10) via the one-way valve (30) to an environment (300).
