![]() ![]() The recess 15 of the lower grabbing disk 11 is sufiiciently large to receive one side of a pipe of considerable diameter. The grabbing disks permit the body of the grabber to be freely lowered around and on the pipe or rod, but when the grabber is drawn upwardly the said disks, by their own gravity, close against the pipe or rod, thereby firmly catching the same and holding it securely between the grabbing disks and one side of the tubular body and enabling the pipe or rod to be readily drawn upwardly from the well. The operation of my invention is as follows: \Vhen it is desired to recover the pipe, rod or other similar object which has dropped into a well, my improved grabber is lowered and directed so that its tubular body passes downwardly around the upper end of the pipe or rod. ![]() ![]() The disks are free to turn on their pivots 9 and when the device is in normal, upright position the grabbing disks, The lower disk 11 is provided in its outer side with a substantially semi-circular recess 15, which is considerably larger than any of the recesses 14 of the disk 10. The upper grabbing disk 12 is provided in its outer side with a series of seini-circular notches 14. In other words, the size of the grabbing disks is such that when they are closed in the tubular body, they are oblique to the axis thereof and incline toward the open, upper end thereof. These grabbing disks are of such size that when they extend across the bore of the tubular body, they incline upwardly from the bars to which they are attached. Which the up er'end of the bar extends, that portion 0 the side of the grabbing disk which forms the outer side of the said opening forming a pivot 13 which is disposed 111 the recess 9 and is held therein by the adjacent wall of the tubular body 1, which closes the outer side of the said recess.
