With the above configuration, when the movable plate 8 retreats to the right in FIG. 19A from the state shown in FIG. 19A in which the claw members 111 and 112 are That is, when moving in the direction away from the guide plate 6, the rollers 108, 108 respectively mounted on the * ί 耑 of the claw holding members 105, 106 respectively engage with the cam surfaces 121, 122 of the cam plate 120. As a result, as shown in FIG. 20, the claw holding members 105 and 106 are opened against the urging force of the spring 110, so that the pair of claw members 111 and 112 are separated from each other and the glove 65 Open your mouth.

According to the present embodiment, the pair of claw members 111, which are driven so that the second locking claws 104 attached to the moving plate 8 are separated from each other as the distance from the moving plate 8 guide plate 6 increases. Since it is constituted by 112, it becomes easier to pull out the hand from the glove 65, and by using the claw holding members 105 and 106 for supporting the claw members 111 and 112 and the cam plate 120, the stroke can be reduced. There is an advantage that the claw members 111 and 112 can be greatly opened even if the length is short.
