My best guess is not a chip extractor.
I finally looked up 3C. It's like 3M only it stands for electronics products. Computers/Consumer Electronics/????
Since it has the shape and function of an extractor, and 3C has something to do with electronics, I'm guessing it is for placing something.
What the something is I don't know yet.
What I have in mind is this:
You are picking something up (maybe from a package or multi-pack) and placing it. The spring loaded disc is there to put some pressure on against the hooks so it's easier to hold it.
Off to search again. My neck is killing me from looking at images all day
