A clamping force visualization device, including a first clamping body (01) for clamping an object; the first clamping body (01) is telescopically assembled on a base (14), an elastic element (110) is provided between the first clamping body (01) and the base (14), and a clamping force scale (11) and a reading indicator (15) are respectively provided on the first clamping body (01) and the base (14); when the first clamping body (01) clamps the object, the elastic element (110) measures a clamping force and the reading indicator (15) points to the clamping force scale (11) for reading, so that the magnitude of the clamping force can be intuitively seen and read during clamping, thereby achieving accurate clamping. A clamp including the clamping force visualization device is also involved.

The present invention relates to a work holding and clamping device, which increases the usable span to almost twice its stored length. This clamping device has an inner and outer assembly which are nested, and each assembly is made of a rectangular tube with a jaw affixed to one end. The inner assembly contains a locking mechanism to allow for length adjustment. When arranged so that the jaws are on the same side of the respective assemblies, the clamp is capable of a span that is almost equal to the length of the inner assembly. When arranged so that the jaws are on opposite sides of the respective assemblies, the clamp is capable of a span that is almost equal to the sum of the length of the inner assembly and outer assembly.

The present invention is generally directed towards clamps for high tension load applications. In particular, the invention relates to high holding power clamps in which fabric can be secured, and which can withstand a large amount of force, including, in at least some embodiments, the maximum amount of tension permitted in various modern high strength fabrics and/or fiber weaves. In at least one embodiment, a holding clamp has a single-V design, with at least three areas that exert pinching effects on fabric held in the clamp, and at least four capstan areas that exert capstan effects on the clamped fabric. In at least a further embodiment, a holding clamp has a double-V design, with at least six areas that exert pinching effects on fabric held in the clamp, and at least seven capstan areas that exert capstan effects on the clamped fabric.

Embodiments relate to a restraint and stowage device comprising a fixed jaw and a movable jaw, wherein the fixed jaw is attached to an elongated rod. The elongated rod may be receivable through an aperture of the movable jaw. The movable jaw is positioned along the elongated rod such that an object may be securely restrained between the movable jaw, the fixed jaw, and the elongated rod. The position of the movable jaw may be fixed by an end piece.

Provided is a compressible cam lever that has a section that can be compressed by external force. When the external force is released, elastic force within the cam lever causes the section to return back to its original position creating a spring force. The compressible cam lever may be used as part of a handle for opening and closing a clamp that is part of a tripod or other piece of equipment which can hold rails for firearms, sights, scopes, parts, and the like, therein. The compressible cam lever may include a handle, a round-shaped section comprising a flexible curved surface that curves back towards the handle and protrudes outward, and an opening disposed between an end of the flexible curved surface and the handle.

A pallet clamp includes a clamp receiver 110 and a clamp 130. The clamp receiver 110 has an abutted surface 111 with serrations, whereas the clamp 130 has an abutting surface 132 with serrations. The clamp receiver 110 has both of a pressed surface 180 and a counter pressed surface 181 which face in directions perpendicular to the direction along the extension of the serrations. A biasing means 150 press-fits the clamp receiver 110 and the clamp 130 to each other so that the abutting surface 132 and the abutted surface 111 come into tight contact with each other, which causes the pressed surface 180 and the counter pressed surface 181 to be pressed in opposite directions.
