Abstract

Disclosed is an underwater hook comprising a jaw latch, which, in a secured condition of the underwater hook, is releasably secured in a position closing a hook jaw. The underwater hook additionally comprises an actuation button which, for opening the jaw latch, is connected to the jaw latch in a motion-transmitting manner and occupies a closed position in the secured condition of the underwater hook. Furthermore, the underwater hook is provided with a release button blocking a movement of the actuation button away from the closed position in the secured condition of the underwater hook. In order to allow the release button to be actuated without great effort, even in the case of great forces acting on the jaw latch, the present invention provides that the release button is in engagement with the actuation button in the secured condition of the underwater hook.
