| 20080217829 | Universal locking mechanism for a clamp - A manual locking clamp is disclosed. The manual locking clamp includes a base and a handle pivotally connected to the base. The manual locking clamp also includes a locking lever connected to the handle. The locking lever including a first locking orifice and a second locking orifice along with a fulcrum orifice and a pivot orifice. The locking lever is capable of being used on any known manual clamp, including pull action clamps, hold down action clamps, straight line action clamps, and any other known manual action clamps. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20090302518 | Portable Clamp - There is provided a portable clamp suitable for clamping workpieces together, the portable clamp including: a mounting member; a pivoting clamping member pivotally connected to the mounting member at a pivot; a reaction member mounted to the mounting member at a region distal the pivot; and a locking means to lock the pivoting clamping member to inhibit rotation of the pivoting clamping member relative to the mounting member so that, when in use, one or more workpieces are clamped between the pivoting clamping member and the reaction member. The locking means is an overcentre mechanism. | 12-10-2009 |
| 20100148414 | SELF ADJUSTING TOGGLE CLAMP - A self adjusting toggle clamp includes a mounting body, mounting apparatus carried by the mounting body and a clamping link movably attached to the mounting body. An actuating lever having a link element is pivotally coupled to the clamping link and movably coupled to the mounting body by a self adjusting toggle mechanism. The self adjusting toggle mechanism includes a guide carried by the mounting body, a locking element carried by the guide for reciprocal and canting movement, an element pivotally coupled to the link element, and a cam element pivotally coupled to the element and pivotally coupled to the locking element. The cam element is movable between a first condition permitting the locking element to reciprocate along the guide and a second condition bearing against the guide and canting the locking element into frictional engagement with the guide. | 06-17-2010 |
| 20140131934 | CLAMP FIXTURE AND RELATED CLAMP APPARATUS - A clamp fixture includes a base, a bridging component, an actuating component, a contacting component and a pushing component. The base is disposed on a foundation. A first end of the bridging component pivots to a first side of the base. A first end of the actuating component pivots to a second side of the base. The contacting component is disposed on a second end of the actuating component. The pushing component includes a body, two pivot structures and a handle. The pivot structures are disposed on an end of the body for respectively pivoting to the bridging component and the actuating component. The handle is disposed on the other end of the body. The handle moves at a first direction, the bridging component and the actuating component can move at a second direction, so as to move the contacting component close to or away from a work piece. | 05-15-2014 |
| 20140339753 | ELECTRIC CLAMP APPARATUS - An electric clamp apparatus includes a body, a rotary drive unit which is driven rotatably by an electric signal, a drive force transmission mechanism for transmitting a rotary drive force of the rotary drive unit to a toggle link mechanism, and a clamp arm disposed rotatably with respect to the body. By driving the rotary drive unit, a drive force is transmitted to the clamp arm through the drive force transmission mechanism, whereby the clamp arm is rotated through a predetermined angle with respect to the body, and a workpiece is clamped between the clamp arm and a support member of the body. At this time, an adjustment mechanism disposed on the clamp arm includes a rod, which advances and retracts so as to stably clamp workpieces of different plate thicknesses. | 11-20-2014 |
| 20160031057 | QUERY UNIT FOR TOGGLE LEVER CLAMP - Query unit for determining the status of moving or movable parts of a system part, particularly for determining the end positions of a clamping arm of a toggle lever clamping apparatus, has a sensor unit and an electroblock. The sensor unit has at least one sensor and a connector plug-in connection part for connecting the sensor unit with the electroblock and can be attached to the system part. The electroblock has at least one electrical connector element for connecting an outer, releasable connection cable, a connector plug-in connection part for connecting the electroblock with the sensor unit, and at least one screw passage opening for installation on an outer surface of the system part. The connector plug-in connection part of the sensor unit is connected in an opening of the system part, with shape fit. | 02-04-2016 |
| 20160184978 | TOGGLE CLAMP - A toggle clamp is provided which includes a base, a clamping arm articulated to the base for pivotal movement about a first pivot axis, a handle articulated to the clamping arm or base for pivotal movement about a second pivot axis, a bridge element articulated to the handle or the clamping arm for pivotal movement about a third pivot axis, a first wedge element having a first wedge surface, and a second wedge element having a second wedge surface facing towards the first wedge surface. In a first positional range of the handle, the wedge surfaces are spaced apart. In a second positional range of the handle, the second wedge surface is supported on the first wedge surface, displacement of the first wedge element driving a displacement of the second wedge element. The bridge element is articulated to the first wedge element for pivotal movement about a fourth pivot axis. | 06-30-2016 |
| 20160184979 | CLAMPING TOOL - A clamping tool is provided which includes a base, a clamping arm articulated to the base for pivotal movement about a first pivot axis, a handle articulated to the clamping arm or base for pivotal movement about a second pivot axis, a bridge element articulated to the handle or the clamping arm for pivotal movement about a third pivot axis, a first wedge element having a first wedge surface, and a second wedge element having a second wedge surface facing towards the first wedge surface. In a first positional range of the handle, the wedge surfaces are spaced apart. In a second positional range of the handle, the second wedge surface is supported on the first wedge surface, displacement of the first wedge element driving a displacement of the second wedge element. The bridge element is articulated to the first wedge element for pivotal movement about a fourth pivot axis. | 06-30-2016 |
