Abstract
A clamp comprising first and second spaced supports on either side of a clamping surface and a flexible strap having first and second ends extending between the spaced supports. A carriage system is provided to allow the flexible strap to be moved toward or away from the clamping surface to engage and clamp articles between the flexible strap and the clamping surface. The flexible strap forms about the articles to be clamped thereby ensuring a good clamping grip. The clamp is particularly suited for use in clamping logs in a delivery chute during processing operations.
