ABSTRACT:
A clamping device which includes a pair of elongated members which are pivotably but releasably connected. A pivot mechanism exists between gripping ends and handle ends of the elongated members. Female and male members comprise a box hinge whereby the cam holds the elongated members in a secure but pivotable relationship between a closed position for the gripping ends and a maximum open position. If the elongated members are moved beyond the maximum open position, the male cam member can be separated from the female receptor member.
