ABSTRACT:
A quick release clamp includes a handle pivotally fixed on a U-shaped bracket via a pin. The U-shaped bracket has a central hole at a base therein and two plates integrally and perpendicularly extended from two sides of the base. A bolt device having a head portion and a rod portion is threadedly engaged with a nut by a lower end of the rod portion with the rod penetrating the hole of the U-shaped bracket and the head portion being slidably received in the U-shaped bracket. A transverse hole is formed in the head portion of the bolt device for receiving a middle portion of the pin. The pin has a recess formed at a middle portion thereof suitable to receive a peripheral portion of the transverse hole of the head portion of the bolt device. The pin is rotatable in concert with the handle thus allowing the bracket to be manually moved close to or away from the nut. Therefore an object secured between the bottom surface of the bracket and the top surface of the nut is allowed to be released by operating the handle.
