Abstract
A parallel arm clamp assembly having longitudinally-movable elongate slide members mountable transversely on the front of a lift truck and attaching members for connecting relatively narrow opposing clamp arms to the ends of the slide members so as to extend perpendicular thereto. Each slide member has an elongate rear portion longitudinally mounted within a slide guide and a longitudinally-extending elongate front portion external of the respective guide protruding forwardly therefrom, the elongate front portions of the respective slide members intersecting a common plane extending vertically and longitudinally with respect to the slide members. The clamp arm attaching members each have a pair of legs formed monolithically and homogeneously into a single member with the legs oriented at substantially a 90.degree. angle with respect to each other. One leg of each such member is connected in end-to-end abutment with a respective end surface of a respective front portion of a slide member so as to also intersect the aforesaid common plane. The second leg of each attaching member protrudes forwardly from the first leg and is adapted for end-to-end abutment with the rear edge of a respective clamp arm.
