Abstract
A spring clamp has a clamping mouth (1) with two clamping jaws (2) which can be spring-loaded toward one another by the force of a spring. The clamping jaws (2) are formed by arms (3) which are connected to one another in an articulated manner at one end. The other ends of the arms (3) which form actuating sections (4) can be moved toward one another in order to open the clamping mouth (1). The two abutting clamping jaws (2) together with the articulation pin (5) of the arms (3) define a reference plane (E). An angle bisector (G) between the two actuating sections (4) is inclined at approximately 90° to the reference plane (E). A hook may be provided at the actuating section (4).
Claims13
A spring clamp, comprising a clamping mouth with two clamping jaws spring-loaded toward one another by a spring and are formed by first and second arms which are connected to one another in an articulated manner at one end, and other ends of which form actuating sections which can be moved toward one another in order to open the clamping mouth;
- when the two clamping jaws are abutted together, the two clamping jaws, together with the articulation pin of the first and second arms, define a reference plane;
- wherein an angle bisector between the two actuating sections is inclined at approximately 90° to the reference plane.
A spring clamp, comprising a clamping mouth with two clamping jaws spring-loaded toward one another by a spring and are formed by first and second arms which are connected to one another in an articulated manner at one end, and other ends of which form actuating sections which can be moved toward one another in order to open the clamping mouth;
- when the two clamping jaws are abutted together, the two clamping jaws, together with the articulation pin of the first and second arms, define a reference plane;
- and a hook arranged on one actuating section;
- wherein the hook can be pivoted about an axis which runs substantially parallel to the reference plane.
A clamp, comprising:
- first and second clamping jaws biased toward each other;
- a first actuating section connected to the first clamping jaw;
- a second actuating section connected to the second clamping jaw;
- the first and second clamping jaws extending in a first reference direction, and the first and second actuating sections extending in a second reference direction which is generally perpendicular to the first reference direction;
- and
- a hook pivotally mounted to one of the first and second actuating sections.
