ABSTRACT:
An adjustable gripping and locking tool having a body (28) to which is attached an elongated handle (22) and a pivoting handle (26). An adjustable jaw (34) is slidably mounted on the body and an adjusting lever (52) cooperates with the adjustable jaw to adjust it toward and away from a fixed jaw (24). The adjusting lever is attached to the pivoting handle and is operated with the hand holding the tool, as is the locking and unlocking operation. The construction of the tool permits the adjustment of the jaws directly against the work piece and eliminates the tedious and time-consuming operation of turning a threaded screw back and forth several times to effect an adjustment that will permit the jaws to be locked on an object.
