ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for releasibly grasping objects has an elongated handle having a first end with a pair of grasping hands and a second end. Each hand has a stem end pivotally connected to the first end of the handle and a grasping end. Closer force means is operably connected to the handle and the grasping hands for selectively exerting a force tending to bring together the grasping ends of the grasping hands. Trigger means is operably connected to the grasping hands for selectively opposing the force means and holding the grasping ends of the grasping hands apart. The trigger means is responsive to contact with an object located between the grasping ends of the grasping hands to cease selectively opposing the force means and to permit the grasping ends to pivot rapidly toward each other.
