Definitions
- An object of the invention is to provide a clamp having the qualities of efficiency and ruggedness and capable of grasping and lifting plates of various sizes and weights, without marring the surfaces of the plates.
- An additional object is to provide a clamp having a pivoted jaw, and a secondary jaw of special construction whereby the pivoted jaw has a minimum of movement, i.e. a short stroke.
- a further object is to provide structure in a clamp which includes the pivoted jaw and a slidable jaw, the said jaws being retained within a unitary type of housing in their various positions of adjustment.
- Another object is to provide in the penultimate construction a slidable wedge whereby to increase the grasping action of the clamp during the lifting operation, the clamp being so constructed that the heavier the weight, the tighter the grasp of the clamping jaws on the opposite sides of the plate or workpiece.
- Yet another object is a clamp having a minimum number of parts for a clamp of this type which has both pivoted and slidable jaws for the purpose of grasping a plate on the opposite sides thereof.
- Figure 1 is a front elevational view of the clamp of this invention
- Figure 2 is a vertical section of the clamp, taken on the line 22 of Figure 4;
- Figure 3 is a rear elevational view of the clamp of Figure 1;
- Figure 4 is a side elevation showing one side of the clamp
- Figure 5 is a side elevation showing the opposite side of the clamp from that shown in Figure 4;
- Figure 6 is a perspective view of the wedge jaw construction
- Figure 7 is a perspective view of the clamp casing with all parts removed
- Figure 8 is a perspective view of the connecting link with the lifting shackle attached thereto, the latter being partly broken away;
- Figure 9 is a perspective view of the pivoted jaw.
- Figure 10 is a perspective view of the wedge adjusting guide nut.
- the present invention is characterized by its ability to lift heavy loads without marring the surfaces of the plate or other workpiece during the lifting operation.
- the clamp is of the suspended type, i.e. it preferably is suspended from a traveling hook which is attached to a lifting crane.
- 10 indicates the housing which, although preferably made from'a singlecast- 2,986,422 Patented May 30, 1961 ing, may be composed of a plurality of parts held together by threaded bolts.
- the housing 10 comprises a pair of platelike sides 12 and 14 which are held to each other by an integral connecting web 16. It will be noted that the side plates are provided on one side with lower curved ends 18 that extend below the lower curved ends 20, seen in Figures 3 and 4 for instance. The said ends 18 and 20 are spaced from each other for forming a slot 22, the latter being adapted to receive the plates or other workpiece designated by the letter A.
- the hollow casing 10, as shown in Figure 2, is provided with pivoted jaw 24 having a plate-engaging surface 26.
- the pivoted jaw has an opening 28 which receives a pin 30 that may be a headed bolt having head 32 at one end and a cotter pin 34 at its opposite end.
- the pivoted jaw has an upper portion provided with a slot 36 for the reception of a part, such as pin 38 of the connecting link 40. It will be understood, however, that instead of providing a slot on the pivoted jaw 24 and a pin on the connecting link 40, the connecting link 40 may be provided with the slot and the pivoted jaw 24 provided with a pin, without affecting the operation of the pivoted jaw 24.
- Connecting link 41) is pivotally held in position by a pin 42 which connects the plates 12 and 14 and extends through sleeve 42a, see Figure 2.
- the opposite endof the link 40 is connected by a pivot 44 to the lifting shackle 46.
- the upper end of the lifting shackle may be provided with an opening 48, or the shape of the upper end of the shackle may be that of a hook, not shown. However, I prefer to provide the opening 48, which may be engaged by the hook end of a hoist.
- Stop pins 50 limit the upward swinging movementof the connecting link 48 and thereby restrict the movement of the pivoted jaw into and out of the slot or opening 22.
- the stop pins 50 also restrict the upward movement of the shackle 46.
- a sliding wedge 52 having an extended gripping surface 54 which faces the surface 26 of pivoted jaw 24 at the opposite end of the slot.
- the gripping surface normally extends into the slot as seen in Figures 1 and 2.
- the wedge 52 is guided in its upward and downward movement of adjustment in the casing 10 by means of a nut 56, as seen in Figures 2, 6 and 10.
- the sides of the nut 56 are provided with stepped portions 58 that slide on facing grooves 68 of the wedge 52.
- Nut 56 is further anchored in position by means of a bolt 62 having threads 64 that engage threads 66 of nut 56.
- Bolt 62 is provided with a knurled head 68 and a hexagonal socket 70 whereby this bolt may be adjusted either by hand or by a socket wrench when using the socket 70.
- the bolt 62 extends loosely and non-threadedly through the opening 72 of the web 16 that connects side plates IZ-and 14.
- Wedge 52 is adjustable vertically in the casing 10, as seen in Figure 2, by means of the bolt 74.
- This bolt is provided with an octagonal head '76 and a screw-threaded shank portion 78 which threadedly engages the nut 80.
- the sliding wedge 52 has flat sides 82 that clear the flat sides of the side plates 12 and 14 of the housing.
- the nut 88 is connected to the wedge sides by means of a pin and hole connection shown at 84 in Figures 4 and 6.
- the bolt 74 is guided by a sleeve 86.
- This sleeve extends between the upper portions of the plates 12 and 14 and'is held between the side plates 12 and 14 by means of knurled stud members 88 and $8, each one of which threadedly engages the side plates and is provided with a stud member 92, only one of which is shown in Figure 4, that engages a central aperture 94 in the sleeve 86.
- This sleeve therefore, is rotatable on the stud members 92.
- Extending transversely through this sleeve, with reference to opening 94 of sleeve 86, is an opening 96 that freely supports and. guides the bolt 74.
- the bolt is held in position on the sleeve 86 by the head 76, and a locking nut 98, which is held in locking position on the bolt 74 by means of a threaded pin 100.
- the workpiece A may be inserted in the slot 22.
- the head 76 of bolt 74 is then engaged by a suitable tool and the bolt is rotated to cause the wedge 52 to move downwardly and inwardly of the slot 22 from the full line position to the dotted line position of Figure 2, for example.
- the work is firmly engaged between the surface 26 of the pivoted jaw 24 and surface 54 of the wedge 52.
- the opening 48 of the lifting shackle 46 is now engaged by a hook of the hoist, not shown.
- the pivoted jaw 24 tends to move from the dotted line position to the full line position, both shown in Figure 2.
- any tendency of the workpiece to shift or move downwardly would be opposed by the action of the wedge 52 on one side and the pivoted jaw 24 on the opposite side, the result being a positive clamping engagement along an extended surface of the workpiece by the wedge 52 and a positive grasp on the opposite side by the surface 26 of the pivoted jaw 24.
- An additional locking effect may be had by inserting a socket wrench in the socket 70 and operating the bolt 62 to positively lock the wedge 52 in engagement with the workpiece.
- the movement of the pivoted jaw 24 may be reduced to a minimum about the pin or pivot 30, in order to positively and graspingly engage the work by the pivoted jaw 24.
- wedge 52 is both slidingly and pivotally supported in casing 10 by bolt 74 through the threaded engagement of bolt 74 with nut 80, and sleeve 86 with its pivoted supporting stud members 92.
- the wedge may be caused to pivot and lockingly engage the work in its pivoted movement by means of the engagement of nut 56 by bolt 62.
