Abstract
A motorized clamp device is provided. The device is comprised of an electric clamp configured to apply and release compressive force on a workpiece. The device comprises a high-torque electric motor operatively coupled to a motor controller, wherein the motor is configured to drive a mechanical assembly that translates rotational motion into linear displacement. The drive assembly connects the motor to a clamp arm that moves toward a fixed jaw to secure an object between the same. Power is provided by a battery and may be monitored through an integrated battery indicator. A control interface is provided for user interaction. The device further comprises a manual release mechanism allowing decoupling of the drive system for manual adjustments and emergency releases. A repositionable handle assembly with an adjustable pivot mechanism is included to optimize ergonomic usage.
