         3 . The rotor blade detachment device according to  claim 2 ,
 wherein the hook has a base that is connected to the arm at the position opposite to the contact portion in the drawing direction, and extends in a direction perpendicular to the drawing direction, and   the support portion is moved at the base to approach the hook, and supports the rotor blade by pressing the rotor blade against the contact portion and sandwiching the rotor blade with the contact portion.   
     
     
         4 . The rotor blade detachment device according to  claim 3 ,
 wherein the base is formed with a screw hole,   the support portion has a screw shaft that is movable at the base in a state of being inserted into the screw hole, and   the screw shaft is contactable with the rotor blade from the first axis line side by being moved at the base to approach the contact portion.   
     
     
         5 . The rotor blade detachment device according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the drawing portion is attachable to and detachable from the hook.   
     
     
         6 . The rotor blade detachment device according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the drawing portion has
 a first frame that extends in the drawing direction to extend the arm of the hook, and 
 a second frame that is connected to the first frame at a position opposite to the hook in the drawing direction, and extends in a direction perpendicular to the drawing direction with respect to the first frame, and 
   the load is applied to the second frame.   
     
     
         7 . The rotor blade detachment device according to  claim 6 ,
 wherein a chipping hammer applies the load to the drawing portion.   
     
     
         8 . The rotor blade detachment device according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the drawing portion has
 a support column that extends in a rod shape in the drawing direction to extend the arm of the hook, 
 an impact portion that is connected to the support column at a position opposite to the hook in the drawing direction, and extends in a direction perpendicular to the drawing direction with respect to the support column to increase a diameter of the support column, and 
 a hammer portion that extends in the direction perpendicular to the drawing direction with respect to the support column, is movable in the drawing direction in a state in which the support column is internally inserted, and collides with the impact portion. 
   
     
     
         9 . The rotor blade detachment device according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein a width of the drawing portion, which is orthogonal to the drawing direction, is more than a width of the contact portion, which is orthogonal to the drawing direction.   
     
     
         10 . A rotor blade detachment method of detaching a rotor blade from a disk,
