Реферат: The invention relates to a lifting device comprising a hoisting tube (12) connected vacuum source, to an adjustable the hoisting tube (12) is attached or fixed to a suction pad (5) comprising an inner volume and an edge providing an air-tight closure to a surface of an object during operation. The vacuum source subjects the hoisting tube (12) to a low pressure, and the inner volume of the hoisting tube (12) is connected to the inner volume of the suction pad (5) in such a way that air may flow from one to the other, the vacuum source provides a lifting force when air flowing into the hoisting tube (12) is limited or cut-off. The lifting device further comprises a valve unit (14) comprising a separator (15) which in at least one position reduces an airflow between the inner volume of the hoisting tube (12) and the inner volume of the suction pad (5) and in at least one open position allows a maximum airflow between the inner volume of the hoisting tube (12) and the inner volume of the suction pad (5). The valve unit (14) further comprises an actuator (6) controlling the position of the separator (15) during operation between an open position allowing a maximum airflow and a closed position allowing a minimum airflow through the valve unit (14).
