Abstract
A clamp which can be used separately to connect two rod-like members together at any angular relationship, can be used in conjunction with a frame for connecting a frame supporting rod thereof to the rod of a tripod or other rod or post-like member. The clamp comprises two clamp plates pivotally connected to each other with opposite rod engaging ends, and a third plate rotatably mounted to one of the pivotally connected plates. A threaded rod extends through substantially aligned openings in the three plates and can be tightened to squeeze the three plates together. While a first rod-like member can be held between the pivotally connected plates, a second rod-like member can be held between the rotatable plate and the associated one of the pivotally mounted plates.
