ABSTRACT:
An improved implement handle assembly according to the present invention comprises a first and second jaw each having a clamping face adapted to co-operate with one another to releasably engage a mounting member of an implement when in a face-to-face clamping relationship, the first jaw being fast with respect to the handle. The first jaw has a mounting edge extending transversely of the distal end thereof and the second jaw has a locking lip formed at the distal end thereof which is shaped and proportioned to hook around the mounting edge when the jaws are in the clamping position to lock the jaws closed. The second jaw has its proximal end both pivotally and slidably mounted with respect to said handle whereby said first jaw may slide between an extended and a retracted position and may pivot between an open position and a clamping position with respect to the first jaw such that, when said second jaw is in the retracted and clamping position the locking lip is hooked around the mounting edge to prevent pivotal movement of the second jaw and the second jaw is free to pivot between said clamping position and said open position when the second is in the extended position.
