ABSTRACT:
A cable disconnector assembly is described for use with a lifting hook of a lifting assembly for disconnecting the lifting cable from the lifted material. The disconnector assembly includes a vertical suspended member having an upper end eyelet portion engageable with the lifting hook of the lifting assembly, a lower end portion having a slotted opening therein, and a recessed shoulder portion. A jaw member is hingedly mounted to the lower end portion through the slotted opening and operable between an open disengaging position and a closed engaging position wherein the jaw member rests in the recessed shoulder portion. The lower end portion of the vertical suspended member includes extension members which engage the surface of the lifted material to move the jaw member from a closed position to an open position to permit disconnection of the lifting cable from the lifted material. A locking mechanism is provided to prevent movement of the jaw member from the closed position to an open position.
