ABSTRACT:
A powered clamp includes a pair of moveable members which engage one another to maintain, at least temporarily, a locking position of an arm when actuating fluid pressures have been decreased or lost. In another aspect of the present invention, the apparatus is simplified by engaging a slide rod with a rotatable hub. Furthermore, the overall packaging envelope required by the clamp is reduced by aligning the transverse axis of the rotatable hub with a longitudinal axis of an actuator.
