An innovative brake for use with a hoist assembly is disclosed. The brake incorporates a fixed jaw attached to a support frame and a moving jaw which is allowed to traverse along angular features to permit sufficient spacing between jaws allowing the rope, cable, or wire to pass through safely without premature engagement of the brake devices system.
