ABSTRACT:
An improved clamp for mounting a device, such as a theater lighting fixture, to a structural tubular is provided. The clamp includes a main body securable to the device to be mounted. A jaw is pivotally connected to the main body and moves from an open position to receive the tubular to a closed position such that the main body and the jaw encircle the tubular to provide high structural integrity. The jaw also moves along the pivot axis from an unlocked position wherein the jaw is spaced from the main body to a locked position wherein the jaw is substantially aligned with the main body. A lip may be provided in the jaw for fitting within a slot in the main body when the jaw is in the locked position, thus preventing the clamp from opening. A bolt carried on the jaw may be threaded for engaging the tubular and bringing a gripping surface on the main body into fixed engagement with the tubular.
