ABSTRACT:
A quick attach/release pole clamp is mounted on the side of a medical instrument case. A stationary clamp member is secured to the case and a movable clamp member slides in a slot oriented at a slight acute angle to the vertical, so that it moves toward and away from the stationary clamp member as it moves up and down the slot. A spring biases the movable clamp member toward the top of the slot so that the clamp is moved to the closed position. The user may support the instrument case in two hands while depressing the sliding clamp member to permit the clamp members to be positioned around a pole. When the pressure is released, the spring causes the clamp to close on the pole. A camming lever permits the user to provide positive latching of the clamp member from movement, and to engage an anti-rotation element with the pole. An interlock prohibits activation of the camming lever while the movable clamp member is being depressed.
