Abstract
An ambidextrous locking clamp system for providing a user the ability to use the right or left hand to engage and disengage a ratcheting means on the clamp. The clamp has hingedly connected first and second elongated members each with a finger engaging member arm, a finger engaging member, a working head, and a latching member featuring ratcheting teeth. The teeth face each other in a direction parallel with a longitudinal axis of the clamp. The teeth are engaged by moving the finger engaging members toward each other in an engaging motion, and are disengaged by sliding them in a disengaging motion perpendicular to the engaging motion with opposing force applied to the finger engaging members. A space is defined between the finger engaging member arms and the finger engaging members. The latching members extend into the space from where the finger engaging members transition from their corresponding finger engaging member arms.
