Pin clamp accessories
The present disclosure provides a pin clamp having first, second and third pins, a finger and stripper assembly. The first pin moves in response to an actuation. At least one finger is positioned adjacent the first pin, and is movable between clamped and unclamped positions. The second pin is located adjacent the first pin and is in operable communication with the finger. The stripper assembly comprises the third pin that is selectively engagable with the second pin, and an actuator that moves the third pin. The first activation of the actuator moves the third pin causing it to engage the second pin causing it to move the finger to the clamped position. The second actuation of the actuator moves the third pin causing it to disengage from the second pin causing it to not move the finger to the clamped position.
1. A pin clamp assembly comprising:
a clamp housing;
a locating pin at least partially located within the clamp housing;
at least one finger extendable out of and retractable into the locating pin;
a pin having a cam slot disposed therein;
wherein the cam slot is located within the locating pin and the clamp housing;
wherein the locating pin includes an opening in communication with the cam slot of the pin;
a strip off pin that is selectively disposable into and out of the cam slot of the pin and the opening of the locating pin;
wherein when the pin is positioned out of the cam slot and opening, the locating pin is movable without extending or retracting the finger; and
wherein when the pin is positioned in the cam slot and opening, the pin is movable to retract or extend the finger into or out of the locating pin.
2. The pin clamp assembly of claim 1 , further comprising an actuator that selectively moves the strip off pin between positioned into and out of the cam slot and opening.
3. The pin clamp assembly of claim 1 , wherein as the strip off pin is moved out of the cam slot, the locating pin can move without extending or retracting the fingers.
4. The pin clamp assembly of claim 1 , wherein the actuator is pneumatically powered.
5. The pin clamp assembly of claim 1 , wherein the shape of the cam slot controls a portion of the movement of the pin when the strip off pin is disposed therein.
6. The pin clamp assembly of claim 1 , wherein as the strip off pin is moved into the cam slot, the locating pin moves which extends or retracts the fingers.
