A fixture for holding a part comprises a frame supporting a guide plate. A controlled engagement device passes through the guide plate and is arranged to be advanced incrementally towards a first end of a fulcrum beam. A second end of the fulcrum beam is connected to a linkage arm, the linkage arm passing through a gap in the guide plate. An end of the linkage arm distal to the fulcrum beam has a swivel clamp mounted thereto. A support is arranged to face the swivel clamp and defines a space there between, the space being configured to receive a part to be clamped in the fixture.

A tool assembly includes a housing, a shaft, a spherical member, and a head. The housing defines a shaft channel. The shaft is rotatably disposed within the shaft channel and includes an exposed portion outside of the shaft channel. The exposed portion defines an engagement channel extending through an outer surface of the exposed portion. The spherical member is disposed within the engagement channel. The head is configured to be engaged with the exposed portion of the shaft. The head includes a detent configured to selectively engage the spherical member.

An intermediate partition plate positioning apparatus and battery module assembling equipment are provided. The intermediate partition plate positioning apparatus includes: a supporting mechanism; a first adjusting mechanism, connected to the supporting mechanism, and configured to drive the supporting mechanism to move along a vertical direction; and a second adjusting mechanism. The second adjusting mechanism is located on at least one side of the supporting mechanism along a first horizontal direction. The second adjusting mechanism includes a clamping portion and a driving portion. The clamping portion is connected to the supporting mechanism. The driving portion is able to drive the clamping portion to move so that the clamping portion clamps the intermediate partition plate from two sides of the intermediate partition plate along a second horizontal direction. The first horizontal direction intersects the second horizontal direction.

A clamping device includes two mounting members facing each other, a driver coupled to the two mounting members and at least one clamping module. Thee driver is configured to alternately drive the two mounting members toward and away from each other. The clamping module includes two clamping members mounted on the two mounting members. Each clamping member includes a guide rod, a clamping block, and an elastic member. One end of the guide rod movably passes through a corresponding mounting member. The clamping block is fixed at one end of the guide rod distal from the mounting member. The elastic member is sleeved on the guide rod and positioned between the mounting member and the clamping block.

One or more clamping aid tools for mounting to various squares and straight edges, including carpenter squares, framing squares, speed squares or the like, and various straight edges and rulers for easily and accurately positioning various objects, either flat and/or round, magnetic or not. The clamping aid tools can secure these squares and straight edges to various objects while they are being fitted, secured and/or welded together.

A clamping tool includes a strut having one end and defining a longitudinal axis. Arranged on the one end of the strut is a mount which includes a bushing that is arranged on the strut. The bushing includes recesses and a receptacle which interacts with the recesses so as to be rotatably mounted in the bushing. The bushing has an interior provided with at least one groove for receiving an O-ring which is sized to extend beyond the groove to inhibit a rotational mobility of the receptacle. A clamping device is received in the receptacle of the mount and configured to swing about an axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the strut.

The present invention has a block with a cylindrical stud and a cylindrical hole. A hex-head screw has a screw head portion, a middle portion and a threaded portion. The threaded portion of the hex-head screw can be fitted to the base of a clamp through the cylindrical hole, so that the clamp can freely rotate, using the cylindrical stud as a pivoting point, and the clamp's location on a welding table can be shifted to provide a proper location on the surface of a workpiece. When the clamp handle is engaged, the cylindrical stud binds to a welding table opening, but when the clamp handle is disengaged, the clamp can rotate as the cylindrical stud rotates in the welding table opening.

A fly fishing vice is provided. A fly vice for creating custom flies includes a cylindrical member that attaches to a vertical member, and the vertical member attaches to a base member. The members can be disassembled for transport. The cylindrical member includes integrated jaw members for holding flies. Moreover, the cylindrical member can be custom adjusted to a desired point in three-dimensional space.

An aircraft system component carrier module includes a carrier element which is arc-shaped at least in sections and is configured, when the module is mounted in an aircraft, to extend at least in some sections substantially in the direction of the ribs of an aircraft structure over at least a section of a crown area of an aircraft cabin. The module includes a transverse carrier element which is configured, when the module is mounted in an aircraft, to extend in the crown area of an aircraft cabin substantially perpendicularly to a longitudinal axis of the cabin. The module further includes a structure holder for fastening the module to the aircraft structure, an aircraft system component holder for fastening at least one of the aircraft system components to the module and an attaching device, connected to the transverse carrier element, for attaching an aircraft luggage compartment to the module.

The present invention relates to a clamping mechanism that is configured to securely hold a workpiece in a machine tool, such as, but not limited to a vertical machining center, or a horizontal machining center, etc. More specifically, the clamping mechanism is configured as a modular soft jaw. A multiplicity of clamping mechanisms can be used to cooperatively secure large workpieces. Furthermore, a multiplicity of clamping mechanisms can be incorporated into a job set-up so a multiplicity of workpieces can be processed concurrently. The present invention's clamping mechanism can be secured in orientations such as, but not limited to a machine tool table bed, a fixture plate, a tombstone, etc. The present invention's modular, soft jaw clamping mechanism can be used in conjunction with other work holding equipment, such as, but not limited to jigs, fixtures, tools, vises, clamps, etc.
