Description: |
| Abstract:
Relates to means for adjustably pivoting the movable jaw of vices to the projecting leg carried by the fixed jaw whereby the jaws may be kept parallel, and to means for facilitating the rapid opening of the jaws. In the form shown in Fig. 1, the lower end of the movable jaw 1 is provided with a pin 7 adapted to be engaged along the notches in the plates 6 carried by the fixed jaw 2, while, in a modification, the end of the jaw 1 is notched to engage pins between the plates. To provide for rapid adjustment of the jaws, the vice-box 3 is associated with the movable jaw and carries racked extension 4 passing through an aperture in the fixed jaw 2 and normally held by a pin 8 engaging therewith. The rack 4 may be released for sliding movement by depressing the pedal 9 in the construction shown in Fig. 5, the parallel bar 10 at the same time releasing the movable jaw pivot; or by lifting the vice-box in the form shown in Fig. 7, this movement operating through the rocking levers 10, 11 and link 12 to raise the pin 8 away from the rack. |
