  • Patent number: 5662678
    Abstract: An injection clamp for lifting and holding skin on an upper arm comprising: a pair of mating parallel elongated jaw members; a pair of mating arm members hinged together at one end, each arm member having a hinge end portion which carries an elongate jaw member extending laterally therefrom, each arm member having a rounded central portion adapted to extend around one side of the upper arm, and a spring end portion, said spring end portion being the end of the arm member opposite the hinge end; and, tension spring extending between the spring end portions of the pair of mating arm members is disclosed. The unique design of the clamp allows one to single handedly slide the clamp over the upper arm, open the spring end portion thereof with one's fingers, and then while pulling the elongate jaw members towards the arm--allow the spring end portion to close so that the skin is pinched between the elongate jaw members.
