The invention relates to a release apparatus for a load on a device, in particular an underwater device, having a hook device in which a hook is mounted on a hook holding device such that it can rotate about a rotation axis, and can be moved with the aid of a hook operating mechanism, between a closed position and a released position, by rotation about the rotation axis, a load rest, which is formed on the hook and in which a holding element for the load rests when not released, and a positive guide, which is configured to guide the load along an ejection direction when released, wherein, when the holding element of the load is resting on the load support, the hook is not subject to any torque when in the closed position, in terms of any torque which is exerted by the load on the hook with respect to the rotation about the rotation axis. An underwater device having a release apparatus is also provided. |
