Abstract
A pressure applying system using a modular vise having a fixed base and an adjustable pusher assembly. The modular vise utilizes a bi-directional worm screw to apply a linear force from the pusher assembly to the working member relative to the fixed base. The fixed base is secured and located from below a bottom surface of the fixed base.
Claims17
A modular vise for securing a part, comprising:
- a pusher assembly, comprising:
- a pusher;
- a gripper;
- a drive screw;
- and
- an anti-backlash nut;
- a keeper assembly;
- and
- a base member having a distal end, a proximal end, a top surface, and a bottom surface;
