A gripping assembly, comprising gripper elements (2, 3) adapted to be opened and closed for gripping and clamping a load, is adapted to be secured to the boom of traveling equipment. A control mechanism (40) is provided for controlling the opening and closing movements of gripper elements (2, 3) between an opened and a closed condition. The control mechanism (40) senses the relative movements between two parts of the gripping assembly, with a locking element of the control mechanism (40) being movable between a released position in which gripper elements (2, 3) perform a closing movement and a locked position in which the gripper elements (2, 3) are held in their opened position. When the opened gripping assembly is suspended from the boom and undergoes swinging movements, means, incorporated in control mechanism (40) and adapted to slow down movements of the locking element, prevent the locking element from reaching the released position.
