The two one the right are commonly called auto wrenches or monkey wrenches, and won't work on pipe at all.

As others have noted the two on the right are "auto wrenches."  For the pipe wrench on the left, see ( http://www.datamp.org/patents/advance.php?pn=1862002&id=25266&set=11 ) which relates to that solid frame style of Walworth pipe wrench.
