What parts does the corner clamp consist of?
All corner clamps have the same parts. However, the position of these parts may vary slightly depending on the make and model. The main parts consist of a series of jaws with clamping surfaces, a screw and a handle.Jaws
The jaws are the part of the clamp that holds the workpieces during clamping. They have a "V" shaped compartment in which the blanks are placed so that they meet at a 90 degree angle. Each jaw has a clamping surface along the edge, which, during clamping, is pressed against the side of the workpiece, holding it in place.
back jaw
In the single screw angle clamp, the rear jaw can be rotated to different angles, allowing different sizes of workpieces to be clamped.
The twin-screw corner clamp has two rear jaws that can be adjusted independently of each other with connected screws.
anterior jaw
Single screw corner clamps have a front jaw (also known as a head) that can be moved back and forth and rotated left or right to accommodate workpieces of varying thicknesses.
It has two "V" shaped clamping surfaces that are used in conjunction with the clamping surfaces on the rear jaw to hold the work piece firmly.
The twin screw corner clamp has two front jaws that are fixed and set at 90 degrees to each other.Screw
The angle clamp has a large threaded screw that controls the opening and closing of the jaws. The corner clamp will have at least one screw, however some models have two. The screw is rotated by turning the handle.Processing
The handle controls the movement of the screw, tightening or loosening it, depending on the direction in which it is turned. Turning the handle to the right tightens the screw and closes the jaws. Turning the handle to the left will loosen the screw and open the jaws.
Like a screw, a corner clip can have more than one handle. A twin screw corner clamp will have two handles, usually in the form of a sliding pin.
