摘要： A lifting apparatus has a handle and a scissor grip. The scissor grip is actuated by pushing the handle downward or by lifting it upward. Each end of the scissor grip comprises a bracket for coupling to opposing edges of an object to be lifted. As the handle is raised, the scissor grip actuates, squeezing and holding the object between the brackets. Alternatively, in some embodiments, as the handle is raised, the scissor grip may actuate, expanding and exerting outward force and thus holding an object from an interior. A user may then easily transport the object to the desired location, place the object without bending, and may release the object from the scissor grip by pressing downward on the handle and pivoting it to release at least one bracket from the side of the object.
