| 20110148131 | TREE AND POST REMOVER - The tree and post remover is a removably attachable accessory for an operating vehicle, such as a skid-steer machine, tractor, or similar working machine having hydraulic power output. The tree and post remover has a mounting plate having a fixed jaw assembly extending therefrom and a movable jaw assembly captured and sliding laterally within the fixed jaw assembly. A hydraulic strut resides within the movable jaw assembly, and has one end attached to the movable jaw assembly and its opposite end attached to the fixed jaw assembly. Actuation of the hydraulic strut drives the movable jaw assembly toward or away from the fixed jaw assembly to close or open the jaws relative to one another. Each jaw assembly preferably includes a plurality of individual jaw members, opposite jaw members meshing with one another to allow the jaws to close upon objects of relatively small diameter. | 06-23-2011 |

| 20080277953 | Robotic End Effector and Clamping Method - An end effector for use on a robotic arm includes a clamping assembly for clamping a workpiece, and a tool such as a drill for performing an operation on the clamped workpiece. The clamping assembly is slidably mounted on the robotic arm and self adjusts its position relative to the workpiece before a clamping operation is performed. Linear actuators independently control the movements of the clamping members. The actuators are operated by a controller, based in part on position information produced by sensors that sense the position of the clamping members. | 11-13-2008 |

| 20090108606 | Grapple Attachment For Handling Wrapped Round Modules And Including A Wrap Cutter - A grapple attachment is equipped with driven rollers for selectively turning a wrapped round module about its axis so as to position it for having the wrapping slit at the bottom side of the module. When the module is properly located for having the wrapping slit, a powered cutting blade is caused to move into engagement with the wrapping and slit it across the length of the module. An interlock is provided for preventing operation of the grapple cylinders and driven roller motors unless the cutting blade assembly is located in a standby position wherein it is removed from a zone normally occupied by the round module when the latter is supported by the fixed and moveable grapple sections of the grapple attachment. | 04-30-2009 |
| 20090218836 | Plate Lifting Clamp - A plate lifting clamp may include a body with a slot sized to receive the plate. A contact member may be positioned at a first side of the slot, and a cam may be attached to the body and positioned at the slot across from the contact member. The cam may include a contact section that extends along a first peripheral edge that faces towards the contact member and contacts against the plate when the cam is in a first rotational position. The cam may also include a second peripheral edge that includes teeth that each includes a first face and a second face. A pawl may be pivotally attached to the body to contact the teeth on the cam. The teeth and the pawl may be configured to control rotation of the cam. | 09-03-2009 |
| 20090230707 | Panel Grabber - A removable device which slides over the top edge of a sheet to be picked up and carried, and which clamps the sheet when the handle is lifted, forming a single secure handle temporarily attached to the sheet for carrying without marring the sheet, at a handle height suitable to enable most workers to lift the sheet using mainly leg muscles in an efficient, safe and ergonomically sound manner | 09-17-2009 |
| 20090309379 | GRIP DEVICE FOR MOVING FRONT FLOOR - A grip device for moving a front floor of a vehicle includes a front clamping member and a rear clamping member. The front claming member can clamp a flange portion around a suspension mounting hole of the front floor according to an angle of the flange portion. The rear clamping member can claim a member flange portion of the front floor according to the change of clamping position. The device can be applied to various vehicle models. | 12-17-2009 |
| 20100109362 | LIFTING CLAMPING - The invention relates to a lifting clamp for a workpiece such as plate material, comprising a bearing part and a clamping arm which is rotatably connected to the bearing part above said bearing part and at one end is provided with a clamping face for the purpose of clamping a part of the workpiece between the bearing part and the clamping face, and at the other end of the clamping arm is provided with a lifting eye, the bearing part comprising at least one magnet. | 05-06-2010 |
