An automated vise is disclosed. A gross moveable jaw drive has a stroke longer than the stroke of a fine moveable jaw drive. With this construction, the gross moveable jaw drive can be utilized to actuate the one or more moveable jaws of the vise over a distance greater than the fine moveable jaw drive stroke to a position in which actuation of the fine moveable jaw drive is capable of positioning the one or more moveable jaws in a clamp position to apply pressure to hold the workpiece for machining by, e.g., a CNC machine. In this way, the automated vise can account for workpieces of differing size.

A vise includes a pair of clamping jaws defining a cavity therebetween for holding a workpiece or tool, a primary screw for moving the pair of clamping jaws toward and away from one another, thereby allowing a workpiece or tool to be clamped in a first direction, and an anvil extending outwardly from a first clamping jaw of the pair of clamping jaws.

A woodworking vise includes a profiled vise body (1), a first jaw (2) and a second jaw (2′). The first jaw (2) and the second jaw (2′) are disposed at both ends of the vise body along its longitudinal axis. The woodworking vise further includes at least one movable jaw (3). The at least one movable jaw (3) is slidably connected to a top surface of the profiled vise body. Between the movable jaw (3) and the top surface of the profiled vise body (1), a locking block (36) is disposed, and a bottom surface of the locking block (36) is slidably connected to the top surface of the profiled vise body (1). The movable jaw (3) includes a force applying means (34) and a camshaft (35). The camshaft (35) has at least one cam, and the force applying means (34) is connected to the camshaft (35). Moreover, the force applying means (34) is able to rotate about a center axis of the camshaft (35) to drive the camshaft (35) to rotate therewith to cause the cam of the camshaft (35) to press against the locking block (36) and, by means of the locking block (36), press and secure the movable jaw (3) against and to the top surface of the vise body (1). Wherein, the center axis of the camshaft (35) is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the profiled vise body (1). This woodworking vise can solve the problem of an angle of clamping deviation.

The present invention provides a modular vise system comprised of a fixed body, a moveable body, and a fixture plate, wherein the moveable body has a wide range of motion which enables it to grab a piece of any size that will fit within the confines of the fixture plate, the moveable body being tightened from the top of the modular vise. Tightening of the modular vise from the top allows for multiple work pieces to be placed along the moving axis of the modular vise which increases workpiece density and machine efficiency. The moveable body of the modular vise may be driven mechanically, electrically, or via a fluid driven actuator such as a pneumatic actuator or a hydraulic actuator.

A device to secure and hold an ammunition magazine includes a block using a channel, a receiving ramp, and a slider to accommodate a variety of sizes for the magazine. The block can be made of metal or plastic. The block includes a front edge and a back edge. The front edge includes an opening for the receiving ramp. The metal block also includes side edges. A first side edge includes a machine hole to receive a thrust bolt having a knob that turns to move the slider within the channel. The second side edge is removable and borders the receiving ramp. The slider extends into the receiving ramp as moved by the thrust bolt to secure the magazine. The receiving ramp descends at an angle from the front edge to the back edge to accommodate the magazine.
