Clamp Apparatus

Abstract: A clamp apparatus (10) includes a pair of first and second clamp arms (14 16) supported rotatably on a body (12). The clamp apparatus (10) also includes a manual release mechanism (22) capable of manually releasing a clamped state in the case that an output from a drive unit (18) to the first and second clamp arms (14 16) is stopped and the clamped state of a workpiece (W) is locked. The manual release mechanism (22) includes a release lever (68) disposed rotatably on a first plate body (26). By an operator operating the release lever (68) to thereby rotate the release lever (68) a block body (52) of a driving force transmission mechanism (20) is pressed and moved upwardly and pressing forces applied to the first and second clamp arms (14 16) in widthwise outside directions thereof by a pair of rollers (58a 58b) are released. Consequently gripping members (36) of the first and second clamp arms (14 16) are rotated in directions away from each other to thereby cause an unclamped state.
