ABSTRACT:
A clamping device which has a plurality of elongated clamping members joined to a clamp main frame by a pair of slideable side plates which allow the separate clamping members to be moved axially relative to each other and to the clamp main frame so that the clamping members can be adjusted to compensate for irregularities in those workpieces to be clamped that require coaction of two or more clamping members. The slideable side plates are fixed to the clamp main frame and connected to the clamping member by pegs slideable in slots on the clamping member and side plates. A locking nut and bolt clamp the side plates to the clamping member to fix the portion of the clamping member to the frame once the position of the clamping member is determined. The side plates can accommodate relative movement of the clamp support member and can be easily removed from or shifted along the support member. In one embodiment, the pair of side plates are engaged to a coacting pair of horizontal stationary clamp supporting members on the main frame. To provide for disengagement therefrom, the clamp carrier is raised to enabling relative movement along the supporting members and enabling removal therefrom.
