A retractile grab device, suitable for extracting and recovering submerged concrete blocks which form part of the protective structure at harbours and marine docks. The device of the present invention operates with a crane or similar mechanical driving means that supports it and from which the operating tasks are performed, and is capable of executing a prehensile movement between its claw elements, whereby it takes firm hold of a submerged block and raises and deposits it any chosen place.

1. A retractile grab device, suitable for recovering submerged blocks in a marine environment, of an approximate weight between one and one hundred metric tons, comprised of:a support base member, which is provided with a lower projecting train of a plurality of pulleys arranged in a bank; three pairs of parallel radial lateral projecting flanges, said flanges in equiangular position; and an anchoring means on an upper surface of said support base member; an induction base member, which is provided with a bearing structure housing an upper projecting train of a plurality of pulleys arranged in a bank and matching up with the bank of pulleys on the support base member; three pairs of radial lateral projecting flanges wherein each flanges is parallel to the other flange of the pair, said flanges in equiangular position, matching up with the pairs of flanges on the support base member; and anchoring members arranged different sides of the bearing structure of the aforesaid upper projecting pulley train; three straight arm members, suitable for being housed at one of their ends and of pivoting on the pairs of radial flanges of the support base member, and having at their opposite free end a pair of flanges; three angular claw members comprised of a body portion and a wing portion, each being suitable for connection at the free end of their body portion on a pair of radial flanges of the induction base member, and able to pivot in therein and project the wing portion downwards on the median li ne plane of the pair of flanges supporting it and having an end with a pointed shape; and where each angular elbow portion has means for being held and for pivoting in the wing portion formed at the free end of the arm member; at least one pair of cables, associated with a carrier crane or similar driving means, through-housed in the support base member and each running from the center of the support base pulley train to an opposite end alternately linking one pulley of the induction base member to one of the support base member, in a helical progression, and being attached finally on a corresponding anchoring means arranged on a corresponding side of the bearing structure, in an overall arrangement in the form of a hoist block; and these cables being suitable to support the device assembly statically so that the weight of the induction base of the associated claw members propitiate the movement of the aforesaid induction base away from the support base, and consequently, the pivoting movement of the pointed free end of the wing portion of the claw members away from the axis of the assembly, and due to the restriction of descending movement by swivel anchorage on the end flanges of the arm members; being suitable also for transmitting a progressive traction force exerted from the bearing crane so that the induction base member is closed up to the support base member and, consequently and with the aid of the weight of the arm members, the pivoting movement of the pointed tips of the wing p ortion of the claw members towards the axis of the device, so that they imprison the submerged block and keep it firmly grasped until traction force delivered by the cables is greater than resistance offered by the overall weight of the device and of the mass lifted; a third cable, associated with the carrier crane, attached firmly to the anchoring means, provided on top of the support base member, suitable for supporting the device statically when so required and as a consequence of the cancellation of the traction force delivered by the cables exerting said traction force, in which case the claw member opening process is reproduced and as a result the release, by gravity, of the lifted mass. 2. A retractile grab device, according to claim 1, suitable for extracting blocks of between one and one hundred tons in weight, in which a central axis of the device is at a distance between 0.10-2.00 m to a point of connection between the support base member and the arm members; the central axis of said device is at a distance between 0.10-2.00 m to a connection point between the induction base member and the claw members; the number of pulleys for each of the support and induction base members varies from 2-20; the body portion of the claw members has a length between 0.30-4.00 m; the wing portion of the claw members has a length between 0.30-4.00 m; the angle formed between the body and wing portions of the claw members ranges from 25°-145°; and the arm members have a length between 0.50-5.00 m.
