Equalizer clamp assembly, system and method

Abstract

A multi-directional, equalizer clamp device is disclosed, the clamp device being configured to attach and secure objects, such as posts, rails and the like, for a multiplicity of clamping applications that benefit from single-point clamping operation. The clamp device comprises upper and lower body portions which may be configured to clamp to a side rail of a support table, while further configured to receive objects and clamp them along a secondary clamping direction. The clamp device further comprises a control assembly, such as a knob, to facilitate and achieve simultaneous clamping along both primary and secondary clamping directions at a single point of control. A jogging clamp for clamping to variable sized objects in a primary direction comprises a plurality of spherical, indexing recesses disposed in the lower jaw and matching spherical washer disposed on the control assembly configured to allow large, indexed vertical variation in the clamping range.
