Magnetic clamping tool
View Patent ↗Present invention disclosed and claimed a magnetic clamping tool where a clamping arm with a clamping finger serves to clamp on a working object in normal, sideways, or even up-side-down orientations, where the movements of the clamping finger is controlled by a first wing screw and the movement of the clamping arm is controlled by a third wing screw. The clamping arm is releasably attached to a bracket which is further releasably attached to a V-pad by a locking nut. An anti-tipping screw provides a counter-balancing force to the biasing force of a helical spring on the bracket, and is most useful when the longitudinal direction of the bracket is at a 90-degree angle with the longitudinal direction of the clamping arm.
1. A magnetic clamping tool, comprising:
a spring-loaded bracket;
a V-pad further having two legs, each of the two legs is equipped with a swivel metal plate, wherein each of said metal plate contains a plurality of magnets;
a movable clamping arm having a clamping finger slidably connected within a hole near a distal end of said clamping arm, said clamping finger is equipped with a swiveled clamping jaw; and
first wing screw, second wind screw and third wing screw.
2. The magnetic clamping tool of claim 1 wherein said bracket further having an anti-tipping screw.
3. The magnetic clamping tool of claim 2 wherein the bracket is releasably attached to the V-pad by a locking nut.
4. The magnetic clamping tool of claim 3 wherein said first wing screw controls the clamping finger's sliding movement within said hole, said second wing screw controls an optional first ground wire, and said third wing screw controls the movement of said clamping arm relative to the bracket.
5. The magnetic clamping tool of claim 3 wherein an optional second ground wire is attached to the anti-tipping screw.
