Pliers (1) comprising jaw (201, 301) portions incorporating gripping faces for the clamping of the desired workpiece (90), three pivotal handle (202) portions and a sprung toothed strut (60) positioned between the handles (202). A bow shaped resilient portion (408) or portions, incorporated within the third arm (200, 300, 400) portion, when the pliers are operated this resilient portion imparts a sprung pressure upon the clamped workpiece (90) by the gripping face (203, 303) of the jaws (201, 301). The third arm (200, 300, 400) and bend promoting portion are contiguous with each other. The jaws (201, 301) can further be usefully locked in the required clamping position upon the workpiece (90) by a toothed sprung strut (60) pivotally attached to the first and third arms (200) and conveniently being locked or unlocked according to the locking switch (500, 50) pivotal within the first arm (200, 300, 400).

This invention provides for a hand-held clamping tool to position and hold two pipe flanges in place allowing for the alignment the bolt holes and the gasket that in placed between the pipe flanges by using an alignment spike; and then holding the pipe flange and the gaskets in place while bolts are installed to join the two gasket sections together. The invention also has a detachable alignment spike and a also has a calibration mark on the alignment spike. The invention also describes a tool for positioning and holding ISO flanges.

A pair of adjustable pliers with lever type positioning device includes a clamp body, a first handle slidably engaged with the clamp body, a second handle, and a lever type positioning device. The first handle includes an adjustment tooth. The lever type positioning device pivotally combines the second handle with the first handle, so that the second handle and the clamp body are linked. The lever type positioning device includes a lever member and a positioning member. The lever member pivots between a locked position and a release position. The positioning member is combined with the lever member and includes a positioning tooth. At the locked position, the positioning tooth is engaged with the adjustment tooth. At the release position, the positioning member is disengaged from the adjustment tooth, thereby adjusting the opening degree between the clamp body and the first handle.

A clamp mount and clamp assembly using a clamp mount are provided. The clamp mount is used to attach a clamp to a workbench or other support device so that a workpiece can be clamped to a work surface. The clamp mount may include a removable shoe. The clamp mount may include a plurality of attachment plates for attaching the clamp mount to different supports or different mounting features of the support device.

A hand tool including a first jaw, a first handle fixed to the first jaw, a second jaw, and a second handle pivotally coupled to the second jaw. The hand tool further includes a link member having a first end pivotally coupled to at least one selected from the group of the first jaw and the first handle, and a second end pivotally coupled to the second jaw.

A tool comprising an outer body with a first end and a second end, the outer body defining a longitudinal recess therein and having at least two connector link pivot points at the first end thereof, an inner body slidably received within the longitudinal recess of the outer body and having a core head extending out of the first end of the outer body, at least two jaws, each jaw having an inner pivot point and an outer pivot point, wherein the inner pivot point of each jaw pivotally connected to a corresponding core head pivot point on the core head, a connector link for each jaw, each connector link having a first end pivotally connected to the outer pivot point of the jaw and a second end pivotally connected to a corresponding connector link pivot point on the first end of the outer body, and an actuating assembly for moving the inner body relative to the outer body, whereby movement of the core head toward the outer body causes the jaws to move toward each other, and movement of the core head away from the outer body causes the jaws to move away from each other.

A combination clamp and wrench tool includes a main body, a fixed jaw attached the main body, and a floating clamp mechanism. The floating clamp mechanism may include an adjustable jaw. The floating clamp mechanism may be attached to the main body such that the floating clamp mechanism is slidable relative to the main body towards and away from the fixed jaw. The worm gear and the rack are attached to the floating clamp mechanism. Actuation of the worm gear moves the rack linearly relative to the floating clamp mechanism. When the rack is moved to contact the fixed jaw, the combination clamp and wrench tool operates in a wrench mode, and when the rack is moved away from the fixed jaw, the combination clamp and wrench tool operates in a clamp mode.

The invention relates to pressing tongs or crimping pliers (1). The pressing tongs or crimping pliers (1) comprise a fixed pliers jaw (4) and a movable pliers jaw (6). A closing motion of the movable pliers jaw (6) can be initiated by pivoting a movable hand lever (9) via a toggle lever drive (11). According to the invention, a further lever (48), especially in the form of an additional hand lever (49), is provided. The further lever (48) is coupled to the movable pliers jaw (6) in such a way that when the further lever (48) is pivoted, an opening motion of the pliers jaw (6) into an insertion and/or removal position can be initiated.

A pair of locking pliers with an indicatable adjustment device includes a main body which includes a first and a second gripping jaw cooperatively for clamping a workpiece and an indicatory adjustment device configured to fine tune the clamping pressure between the first and the second gripping jaws and having an auxiliary sign which shows different indications in response to the operation of the adjustment device.

A hand tool including a first jaw, a first handle fixed to the first jaw, a second jaw, and a second handle pivotally coupled to the second jaw. The hand tool further includes a link member having a first end pivotally coupled to at least one selected from the group of the first jaw and the first handle, and a second end pivotally coupled to the second jaw.
