Abstract:
A clamp is more versatile, less damaging, and able to apply a holding force directed from most any angle in its plane of action. This general work-holding clamp consists of several movable clamping units mounted on a circular frame. A clamping unit consists of a clamp screw, a small thumbscrew, and a base. The clamp screw serves its normal purpose, the thumbscrew holds the base in place on the frame, and the base connects the clamp screw to the frame. The circular frame carries all forces between the clamping units, and has a gap to improve versatility.
