The present specification discloses systems, devices, and methods provide a mounting system which includes rail and a bracket which is selectively secured to the rail. The bracket is selectively and/or automatically locked to the rail when positioned on the rail, and may be removed from the rail by activating one or more buttons or actuators. The disclosed mounting systems, devices, and methods enable a device to be protected from impact and moisture exposure, enable a device to be securely mounted on a base, and/or enable a device to be quickly secured and removed from a base.

A pipe clamp has a base with a fixed jaw and a beam extending from the base. A movable jaw member is slidably mounted on the beam. The movable jaw member includes a movable jaw disposed opposite the fixed jaw. A pivotable handle is mounted to the movable jaw member and a clamping mechanism is connected to the pivotable handle and operated by the pivotable handle to move the movable jaw relative to the fixed jaw. A latch secures the pivotable handle in any of a plurality of positions. A tripod stand may be provided for supporting the pipe clamp, the tripod having a multi-compartment storage spreader.

A vise system is provided to retain a workpiece. In an embodiment, the vise system comprises one or more center vise and one or more end vises. The center vises and end vises are clamped to a table or workbench. The center vise is provided with a front jaw and a rear jaw to retain the center of the work. The end vises are provided with workpiece clamps to retain the ends of the workpiece.

An adjustable support stand can include a front support on a first end of the adjustable support stand having a grip comprised of a first, front support material; and a rear support on an opposing, second end of the adjustable support stand having a grip comprised of a first, rear support material, wherein the front and the rear supports can each have at least two vertical arms, at least one of the supports can have vertically stacked chevron voids on each arm, and the chevron voids can be deformable by the object being worked upon to secure and grip the object in place.

Implementations of a clamp finger may include a first portion including at least one tip configured to clamp a substrate against an anvil during a bonding operation; and a second portion including a first opening therethrough configured to permit coupling of the second portion with a clamping bridge. The first portion may be slidably coupled with the second portion through a rail and the first portion may include an opening therethrough configured to receive a screw that fixedly couples the at least one tip of the first portion at a desired position relative to the second portion.

A leveling system for a clamping device can include a base having a top, a bottom, and a plurality of sides; and a leveling knob positioned on one of the plurality of sides of the base and comprising a spring, a pin, and a knob connected at an outer end of the shaft. The spring can be compressible when the knob is pulled away from the base. In a locked configuration, the leveling knob can be at a neutral angle and in a home position with the pin positioned within the base. The pin can be removable from the base when the spring is compressed. The leveling knob can be twistable in at least one of clockwise and counterclockwise rotations when the pin is removed from the base.

A work holding device includes a first jaw piece having an elongated first connection member for connecting the work holding device to a support. The first connection member defines a first passage. A second jaw piece has an elongated second connection member positionable within the first passage. The second connection member defines a second passage in communication with the first passage. A spindle assembly movably couples the second jaw piece to the first jaw piece. The spindle assembly is configured to move the second jaw piece with respect to the first jaw piece to create a clamping pressure when an object is placed between the first jaw piece and the second jaw piece.

An improved vise adapter for use with existing industrial single stage vises. A rear fixed jaw adapter block is mounted on the rear fixed jaw of the vise, a front floating jaw adapter block is mounted on the front floating jaw of the vise, and a middle floating jaw is slidingly mounted therebetween on two pairs of guide shafts extending out from the rear fixed jaw adapter block. The front floating jaw adapter block also is slidingly mounted on the guide shafts. As a linear clamping force is applied in the direction of the fixed jaw of the vise, the adapter holds two workpieces instead of a single workpiece.

A band saw vice assembly for securing a substrate for cutting includes a base that has a first plate coupled to and extending vertically from a first side. A first bar, which is hollow, is coupled to and extends perpendicularly from the first plate. A second plate is coupled to and extends perpendicularly from a sleeve that is positioned around the first bar. A first slot and a second slot, which are aligned and perpendicular to the base, are positioned in the first plate and the second plate, respectively. An actuator, which is operationally coupled to the sleeve, is coupled to and positioned in the first bar. The actuator is positioned to motivate the second plate toward the first plate to frictionally couple to a substrate to fixedly position the substrate. The first and second slots are configured to insert a blade of a band saw to cut the substrate.

A work holding device includes a first jaw piece having an elongated first connection member for connecting the work holding device to a support. The first connection member defines a first passage. A second jaw piece has an elongated second connection member positionable within the first passage. The second connection member defines a second passage in communication with the first passage. A spindle assembly movably couples the second jaw piece to the first jaw piece. The spindle assembly is configured to move the second jaw piece with respect to the first jaw piece to create a clamping pressure when an object is placed between the first jaw piece and the second jaw piece.
