Abstract
The present disclosure provides a clamp. The clamp can include a first clamp member, a second clamp member, and a lever. The first clamp member can include a first gripping surface. The second clamp member can include a second gripping surface. The lever can be connected to the first clamp member and can define a cam located proximate the first clamp member. The lever can be pivotable between a first position and a second position. A transition from the first position to the second position can cause the cam to move the second clamp member towards the first clamp member.
