Abstract
A self-adjusting bar clamp includes a body defining an elongated channel and an actuating lever pivotally coupled to the body and movable between an open position and a closed position. An elongated bar is carried by the body for reciprocal sliding movement therethrough. A self-adjusting toggle mechanism carried by the body includes a locking element carried by the bar and an element pivotally coupled to the actuating lever. A cam element is pivotally coupled between the element and the locking element. The cam element is movable between a first condition permitting movement and a second condition. A biasing member biases the locking element in a first direction.
