A clamp, including a first clamp body and a second clamp body. The first clamp body includes a first clamp jaw and a first handle, movably connected to each other. The first clamp jaw is rotatably connected to the second clamp body at a first connecting position, and the first handle is rotatably connected to the second clamp body at a second connecting position. When the relative position of the first clamp jaw and the first handle is changed, a force occurs between the first clamp jaw and the first handle. A moment formed by the force with the first connecting position as a fulcrum is greater than a moment formed by the force with the second connecting position as a fulcrum.
1. A clamp, comprising a first clamp body and a second clamp body, wherein the first clamp body comprises a first clamp jaw and a first handle movably connected to each other; the first clamp jaw is rotatably connected to the second clamp body at a first connecting position, and the first handle is rotatably connected to the second clamp body at a second connecting position; when the relative position of the first clamp jaw and the first handle is changed, a force occurs between the first clamp jaw and the first handle; and a moment formed by the force with the first connecting position as a fulcrum is greater than a moment formed by the force with the second connecting position as a fulcrum; the second clamp body comprises a limiting region, a limiting block is disposed within the limiting region and is movable within the limiting region, and the first connecting position and the second connecting position are disposed on the limiting block.
2. The clamp of claim 1 , wherein a limiting structure is disposed on one of the first clamp jaw and the first handle, and a limiting member to be engaged with the limiting structure is disposed on the other of the first clamp jaw and the first handle, the limiting member is partially or completely disposed within the limiting structure and is movable within the limiting structure, to form movable connection between the first clamp jaw and the first handle.
3. The clamp of claim 2 , wherein the limiting structure is an elongated hole or slot, the limiting member is movable along the length direction of the elongated hole or slot.
4. The clamp of claim 1 , wherein the limiting region is an elongated hole or slot.
5. The clamp of claim 1 , wherein the first clamp jaw is pivotally connected to the limiting block.
6. The clamp of claim 1 , wherein the first handle is pivotally connected to the limiting block.
7. The clamp of claim 1 , wherein the second clamp body comprises a second clamp jaw and a second handle, the limiting region is disposed between the second clamp jaw and the second handle.
8. The clamp of claim 7 , wherein the first connecting position is closer to the second clamp jaw than the second connecting position.
9. The clamp of claim 7 , wherein the limiting region comprises a locking structure, and a locking portion to be engaged with the locking structure is disposed on the limiting block, when the locking structure is engaged with the locking portion, the position of the limiting block within the limiting region is kept fixed, at which point the limiting block is in a locked position, and when the locking structure is disengaged from the locking portion, the limiting block is movable within the limiting region, at which point the limiting block is in a released position.
10. The clamp of claim 9 , wherein the locking structure is a tooth-shaped profile, and the locking portion is a tooth to be engaged with the tooth-shaped profile.
11. The clamp of claim 10 , wherein an elastic member is disposed on the limiting block, the elastic member holding the limiting block in the locking position.
12. The clamp of claim 11 , wherein the elastic member is a spring.
13. The clamp of claim 11 , wherein the elastic member is disposed at a position engagable with the first handle, so as to resist a force from the elastic member by driving the first handle, thereby driving the limiting block to the released position.
14. The clamp of claim 13 , wherein the distance of the elastic member to the first connecting position is greater than the distance of the elastic member to the second connecting position.
15. The clamp of claim 11 , wherein the tooth-shaped profile and/or the limiting block is disposed such that when the limiting block is moved toward the second clamp jaw, a force from the tooth-shaped profile on the tooth moves the limiting block to the released position; and when the limiting block is moved toward the second handle, a force from the tooth-shaped profile on the tooth holds the limiting block in the locking position.
16. The clamp of claim 1 , wherein the clamp is a water pump clamp.
