Abstract
Description
Claims (17)
- A scaffold clamp comprising a jaw for receiving a scaffold tube, the jaw being configured to move between an open position and a substantially closed position, the clamp also comprising a lock for releasably holding the jaw in the substantially closed position, the lock comprising a bolt and a long collar nut, the nut having an internal bore being partially threaded, the bolt having an external threaded tail being complementary to the internal thread of the nut, wherein the bolt-tail includes a portion which is bendable by application of a force after or upon insertion into the nut such that in use the bolt bends about its longitudinal axis so as to substantially prevent the bolt being completely withdrawn from the nut.
- The scaffold clamp of claim 1, wherein the bolt-tail includes a transverse slot substantially perpendicular to the length of the bolt-tail, and the nut includes an internal stop, the bolt-tail configured to bend about the slot as the end of the tail engages the internal stop.
- The scaffold clamp of claim 2, wherein the transverse slot extends through the width of the tail equal to greater than halfway.
- The scaffold clamp of either one of claims 2 and 3, wherein the transverse slot is arranged approximately 1mm from the distal end of the bolt-tail.
- The scaffold clamp of any one of claims 2 to 4, wherein the transverse slot is arranged within 1 to 10mm from the distal end of the bolt-tail.
- The scaffold clamp of any one of claims 2 to 5, wherein the internal stop is removable from the nut.
- The scaffold clamp of any preceding claim, being configured so that the tail of the bolt does not project outwardly of the clamp when the jaw is in the substantially closed position.
- The scaffold clamp of any preceding claim, wherein the jaw includes two arms and a bolt-tail slot is provided at the end of one arm through which the bolt-tail passes, in use, the bolt having a hexagonal head and flange being larger than the bolt-tail slot to prevent their passage therethrough.
- The scaffold clamp of any preceding claim, wherein the nut is pivotably attached to the clamp.
- The scaffold clamp of claim 9, wherein the nut includes a pivot hole or slot through which it is attachable to the clamp.
- The scaffold clamp of claim 10 wherein the clamp includes a pivot configured to pass through the pivot hole, the pivot being the internal stop.
- The scaffold clamp of any preceding claim, wherein the bolt is pivotably attached to the clamp.
- The scaffold clamp of claim 12, wherein the bolt includes opposing arms at one end through which it is pivotably attachable to the clamp.
- The scaffold clamp of any preceding claim, wherein the nut is hollow.
- The scaffold clamp of any preceding claim, wherein the nut has a first end and an opposite second end, the first end being arranged to receive the bolt-tail, the internal thread extending for a distance of between 5 and 15mm from the end first end towards the second end.
- The scaffold clamp of claim 15, wherein the nut includes a shaped head for permitting rotation of the nut with a tool, the head being located at towards or at the second end.
- The scaffold clamp of claim 16, wherein the nut includes a hexagonal nut located at the second end.
