In an aspect there is disclosed examples of a clamp (10, 110) for measuring a tension of a conveyor belt (12). The clamp (10, 110) including a clamping portion (18, 118) arranged to engage with opposing faces of the conveyor belt (12) in a clamped condition to hold the conveyor belt (12) relative to an anchor, and a load sensing arrangement (22, 122) associated with the clamping portion (18, 118) configured to provide a signal indicative of the tension in the conveyor belt (12) in the clamped condition. A system and related method are also disclosed.

Presented here is a pole clamp that can be operated by a single hand, and which can clamp onto objects of various sizes and shapes. The clamp can be operated using a handle which, when pushed in an opening direction opposite a base member, opens the jaws on the clamp. The motion of the handle can adjust the opening of the jaws. In addition, the opening of the jaws can be adjusted using a thumb dial which can shorten and lengthen a locking member, which in turn adjusts the opening of the jaws. The clamp can lock onto the object when the handle is pushed in a direction opposite the opening direction, past the dead center point, and the locking member prevents further movement of the handle.

A pliers is provided, including a main body, a slidable member, a swingable assembly and a clamp assembly. The slidable assembly is attached to the main body. The swingable assembly includes a swingable member and a connecting member, and the swingable member is pivoted to one of two ends of the slidable member and one of two ends of the connecting member. The clamp assembly includes a firs clamp portion and a second clamp portion, and the first clamp portion is disposed on the slidable member.

An alignment tool for use in building frame construction to position adjacent first and second framing members includes a first clamp assembly configured to releasably grip the first framing member. A second clamp assembly is connected to and spaced apart from the first clamp assembly. The second clamp assembly is configured to releasably grip the second framing member. The first and second clamp assemblies are configured to align and position the first and second framing members with respect to one another when the first and second clamp assemblies grip the first and second framing members.

A pressure adjusting device of a quick fixture includes a main member, a fixed member fixed to the main member, a movable member movably connected to the main member, and an elastic member received in the main member and having opposite end connected to the fixed member and the movable member to urge the movable member. With the pressure adjusting device the quick fixture can fix various workpieces with different thicknesses.

A plunger clamp has a body defining a bore with a plunger slidably held in the body bore. A lever is pivotally connected with the body. A link arm pivotally connects between the plunger and lever. A catch mechanism is coupled with the body. A latch mechanism is coupled with the lever. The catch mechanism and latch mechanism couple with one another to lock the plunger in a first clamped position and in a second released position.
