  • Publication number: 20230382690
    Abstract: A clutch for lifting a load with a lifting point includes a body with a cavity with an opening at a side of the body receiving the lifting point into the cavity, a first lever and a second lever. The second lever is movably coupled to the body to move between a close position and an open position to block and unlock the opening. The first lever is movably coupled to the body to move between an engaged position and a disengaged position, in the engaged position the first lever engages the second lever to maintain the second lever in the closed position, and in the disengaged position the second lever is disengaged from the second lever so that the second lever is free to move to the open position. The clutch is releasable from the lifting point by pulling the first lever to move it to the disengaged position.
