ABSTRACT:
A clamping arrangement includes a support bracket and a clamping assembly. The clamping assembly includes a clamp sub-assembly having distal and proximal ends. The clamp sub-assembly includes first and second clamp components, each including a cut-out defined in a periphery thereof at an end surface thereof. The cut-outs cooperate to define a guide rail receiving channel for frictionally engaging and holding a guide rail therein. A threaded rod is disposed through the clamp sub-assembly. A control knob is coupled to one end of the rod. The clamping assembly further includes locking structure threadedly coupled to the other end of the rod. The support bracket is constructed and arranged to be mounted to a portion of the conveyor system and includes a receiving channel therein. The locking structure cooperates with the receiving channel so as to adjustably mount the clamping assembly laterally with respect to the support bracket. When tightening the control knob, the locking structure lockingly engages surfaces defining the receiving channel, and a distal end of the clamping assembly abuts a surface of the receiving portion so as to lock the clamping assembly to the support bracket.
