Abstract

See full text

A one-handed ratcheting C-clamp(20) is provided. The C-clamp incorporates a spring(34) loaded handle (32) mechanically coupled to a ratcheting mechanism. The ratcheting mechanism has a plurality of gear teeth (68) that engage the threads (70) of a corresponding rod (30) disposed through a hole formed in one section of the,C-shaped C-clamp. The handle rotates the bi-directional ratchet such that the threaded rod is lowered or raised within the hole of the C-shaped C-clamp. A button (38) located in the side of the handle may release the ratchet mechanism pawl (74) to provide axial sliding engagement of the rod to a corresponding work piece. The handle and corresponding ratchet mechanism secure the rod against the work piece. Further tightening engagement of the work piece is accomplished via a lever (36) located on a top portion of the rod.
