TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of grabbing tongs, in particular to a grabbing tong for calcium carbide. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the process of calcium carbide cooling and hoisting, the calcium carbide needs to be taken out from the calcium carbide pot and hoisted to the designated cooling site for continuous cooling until the loading standard is reached. The calcium carbide clamping hoist used in the prior art is scissors-shaped. After the scissors-shaped clamping hoist is lowered to place the calcium carbide, it must continue to be lowered to lock the locking hook. The locking of the locking hook can make the jaw open to release the calcium carbide, so that the next calcium carbide clamping and hoisting operation can be smoothly carried out. However, if the clamped calcium carbide block is thin or there are other obstacles such as calcium carbide around the placement position during the process of placing the calcium carbide, the jaw has been abutted against the ground or other obstacles, and the lowering operation cannot be performed. The locking hook cannot be locked, and the jaw cannot release the calcium carbide. Artificial hooking of the locking hook is needed to assist the jaw to open to release the calcium carbide, so as to facilitate the subsequent lifting of the clamping hoist. In the case that the clamping hoist is blocked in releasing the calcium carbide, the clamping hoist wastes manpower and material resources, and reduces the efficiency of the calcium carbide clamping and hoisting process.
