Patent number: 4841839Abstract: A recoil absorbing gun mount (A) is disclosed which includes an elongated base (20) with a widened stabilized front end (22). A rear (24) of the base is supported by an incline adjusting leg (30) adjusted by a star wheel (32). Clamping jaws (40, 42) carry resilient gripping pads (44, 46) to frictionally clamp a gun (10) in the mount. The clamping jaws are attached by means of a pivot (C) which allows the clamping jaws to pivot in a yaw direction (56) and a roll direction (58). The pivotal movement in two degrees of freedom allows a clamping space (48) to be adjusted to accommodate different shapes and sizes of guns. The pivot includes angled slots (40f, 42f) formed in clamping jaws (40, 42). These angled slots slide over an operator rod (60) so that jaws (40, 42) may pivot relative to the base. A reduced clamping force is applied at (66) which is reduced from the force applied by operator rod ( 60).Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 1987Date of Patent: June 27, 1989Inventor: Richard K. Stuart

Patent number: 4278246Abstract: A clamping device is provided having a pair of outwardly curved arms with pivotally mounted clamping jaws at one end thereof. A rotatable leverage screw threadedly engages pivot members which are pivotally mounted at the other end of the arms. A rotatable fulcrum screw threadedly engages pivot members which are pivotally mounted on the arms intermediate the ends thereof, so that rotation of the fulcrum screw causes the arms to rotate about the pivot members associated with the leverage screw to open and close the jaws at a suitably high speed and rotation of the leverage screw causes the arms to rotate about the pivot members associated with the fulcrum screw to open and close the jaws with the force required to obtain a good clamping action.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 1979Date of Patent: July 14, 1981Inventor: John B.
