PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a magic hand of which a holding member does not open even in losing one's hold of a holding part, and which does not drop a picked-up article.SOLUTION: A magic hand is provided with a cylindrical rod part (11), an article holding part (12) which has a pair of holding members rotatably attached to a tip end part of the rod part, a holding part (13) which has a movable grip member (13C) arranged on a rear end part of the rod part and movable in an axial direction, and a wire (19) which is arranged in the rod part and is wound between the pair of holding members and a hanging part arranged on the holding part. Tip end parts of the pair of holding members can be separated by moving the movable grip member and transmitting force through the wire. Elastically biasing means for biasing them in a closing direction is arranged between the pair of holding members. One end part and the other end part of the wire are respectively fixed to the pair of holding members. A center part of the wire is slidably wound around the hanging part (13d) arranged on the movable grip member.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】把手部から手を放しても把持部材が開かず、拾い上げた物品を落とすことがないマジックハンドを実現する。【解決手段】筒状をなすロッド部（11）と、該ロッド部の先端部に回動可能に取り付けられた一対の把持部材を有する物品把持部（12）と、ロッド部の後端部に設けられ軸方向へ移動可能な可動グリップ部材（13C）を有する把手部（13）と、ロッド部内に配設され一対の把持部材と把手部に設けられている懸止部との間に捲回されたワイヤ（19）とを備え、可動グリップ部材を移動させることでワイヤを介して力を伝達して一対の把持部材の先端部を離反可能に構成され、前記一対の把持部材間にはこれらを閉じる方向へ付勢する弾性付勢手段が設けられ、ワイヤの一方の端部と他方の端部は一対の把持部材にそれぞれ止着され、ワイヤの中央部分が可動グリップ部材に設けられている懸止部（13d）に摺動可能に捲回されているようにした。【選択図】図１
