SIECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 256,530, dated AprilV 18, 1882. 
Application led August 29, 1881. (No model.) 
The object of my invention is to produce a more convenient and effective clamp for the use 1o of cabinet-1nakers,joiner, &e.,than those now in use; andthe invention consists in the employm'entof a spring attached to the sliding` jawin such a manner as to hold the clamp-iron up to the bar, so as to insure its engaging with x5 the notches on the barwithout the necessity of holding up the clamp-iron with the hand when the clamp is required for use. 
 In clamps ot this character as now made the clamp-iron, when not in use, drops down zo away from lthe bar, and when required for use it is necessary to hold the clamp-iron up tothe bar to engage it in the notches. This ineon- Yenience is obviated by lny invention. 
 Referring to the drawings,Figurel is 'a side 2 5 view ot' a clamp with inyimproveinent applied thereto. Fig. 2 is a similarview,partlyiu section; and Fig. 3 is a view of the under side of the same. 
 Ais a bar ot' the ordinary construction, pro- 3o vided with a head, B, a'nd screw O at one end, 
and with notches a on the underside. To the sides ot' the chuck orjaw D, and inclosing the barA,so as to slideV freelythereomis attached a clasp of thin sheet metal or other suitable material, F. 
 To the under side or"- the clasp Fis attached athin spring, G, of sheet metal or other suitable elastic material, which extends forward and holds the clamp-iron E in the notches a, as shown. rlhe notches a are cut with an inclination at one side, so that the clamp-iron can be easily -pushed l'orward to engage in the same. When the article clamped is to be released and the sliding jaw drawn back itis *onlynecessary-to press the spring G down antLASv release the clam p-iron from the notches.
