Clamping light with rotatable light head

1. A lighting device comprising:

a light head comprising at least one light;

a clamping assembly, the light head being rotatably attached to the clamping assembly about a first axis of rotation, the clamping assembly comprising at least one arm assembly, the at least one arm assembly comprising a pivot arm and a clamping arm that are rotatably attached together about a second axis of rotation at respective first ends thereof, each of the pivot arm and the clamping arm having a respective second end located distal from its respective first end,

wherein the second ends of each of the pivot arm and the clamping arm are biased towards each other.

2. The lighting device of claim 1 , wherein the first axis of rotation and the second axis of rotation are not aligned.

3. The lighting device of claim 1 , further comprising a spring attached between the pivot arm and the clamping arm.

4. The lighting device of claim 1 , the at least one arm assembly of the clamping assembly comprising a first arm assembly, the pivot arm being a first pivot arm and the clamping arm being a first clamping arm, the clamping assembly further comprising a second arm assembly comprising a second pivot arm and a second clamping arm that are rotatably attached together about a third axis of rotation at respective first ends thereof, each of the second pivot arm and the second clamping arm having a respective second end located distal from its respective first end, wherein the second ends of each of the second pivot arm and the second clamping arm are biased towards each other.

5. The lighting device of claim 4 , wherein the first axis of rotation and the second axis of rotation are not aligned.

6. The lighting device of claim 5 , wherein the second axis of rotation and the third axis of rotation are aligned.

7. The lighting device of claim 4 , further comprising a crossbar attached between the second end of the first clamping arm and the second end of the second clamping arm.

8. The lighting device of claim 7 , the crossbar comprising at least one magnet.

9. The lighting device of claim 4 , further comprising a first spring attached between the first pivot arm and the first clamping arm and a second spring attached between the second pivot arm and the second clamping arm.

10. The lighting device of claim 4 , further comprising a peg extending from one of the first pivot arm and the first clamping arm and an indent located in the other of the first pivot arm and the first clamping arm, the peg and the indent being of approximately complementary shapes so that the peg rests at least partially within the indent in a default position of the first arm assembly.

11. The lighting device of claim 10 , wherein the peg extends from the first pivot arm and the indent is located in the first clamping arm.

12. The lighting device of claim 10 , wherein when the first arm assembly is in its default position, a longitudinal axis of the first clamping arm is parallel with a longitudinal axis of the first pivot arm.

13. A lighting device comprising:

a light head comprising at least one light;

an arm assembly coupled to the light head, the arm assembly comprising a pivot arm rotatably coupled to a clamping arm about respective first ends thereof, a second end of the pivot arm being spaced apart from the first end thereof and a second end of the clamping arm being spaced apart from the first end thereof, and at least one biasing member connected between the pivot arm and the clamping arm,

wherein the arm assembly is configured to allow for the second ends of the pivot arm and the clamping arm to be temporarily separated, thereby defining a gap between the second ends thereof, the at least one biasing member acting to bias the second ends of the pivot arm and the clamping arm together to thereby close the gap.

14. The lighting device of claim 13 , wherein the light head is rotatably coupled to the arm assembly about a first axis of rotation.

15. The lighting device of claim 14 , wherein the pivot arm is rotatably coupled to the clamping arm about a second axis of rotation which is not aligned with the first axis of rotation.

16. The lighting device of claim 13 , wherein the at least one biasing member is at least one torsion spring.

17. A lighting device comprising:

a light head comprising at least one light; and

a clamping assembly, the clamping assembly comprising a first arm assembly and a second arm assembly, each of the first and second arm assemblies comprising a first arm member having a first end and a second end, a second arm member having a first end and a second end, and a spring connected between the first arm member and the second arm member, wherein in each of the first and second arm assemblies the respective first arm member and the respective second arm member are rotatably attached together at the respective first ends thereof and the spring acts to bias the respective second ends of the first arm member and the second arm member towards each other.

18. The lighting device of claim 17 , the light head being rotatably attached to the clamping assembly about a first axis of rotation.

19. The lighting device of claim 18 , wherein the first arm member is rotatably coupled to the second arm member about a second axis of rotation which is not aligned with the first axis of rotation.

20. The lighting device of claim 17 , the clamping assembly further comprising a crossbar attached between the first arm assembly and the second arm assembly.
