Abstract
Abstract A clamp assembly comprising a pair of cooperating L-shaped clamp jaws, interconnected by a draw screw. The jaws are adjustable 360° about each other and are invertable. A shock absorbing block of elastomer material is interposed between the clamp members and compressed thereby against the beams being clamped to securely hold them in selected position and providing a shock transmitting means resisting displacement of the beams during nailing.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
54 words
A clamp comprising a pair of opposed jaws presenting opposing abutment elements, a deformable elastomer member interposed between said elements, said jaws defining angularly offset passages accommodating deformation of said member therethrough for engagement with associated parts clamped by said jaws, and means for drawing the jaws into clamping position and deforming said member.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
54 words
A clamp comprising a pair of opposed jaws presenting opposing abutment elements, a deformable elastomer member interposed between said elements, said jaws defining angularly offset passages accommodating deformation of said member therethrough for engagement with associated parts clamped by said jaws, and means for drawing the jaws into clamping position and deforming said member.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
22 words
The invention according to claim 1 and said drawing means comprising a screw extending through said abutment elements and said elastomer member.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
32 words
The invention according to claim 2 and said member and jaws having angularly related complementally fitting side portions, said side portions on the jaws confining said member and controlling the deformation thereof.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
36 words
The invention according to claim 1 and said elastomer member being compressible between said abutment elements and transaxially deformable with respect to said drawing means and engagable therewith for holding the same in selected adjusted position.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
52 words
A clamp comprising a pair of opposing jaw elements, draw screw means interconnecting said elements for adjusting said elements, and a block of elastomer material sleeved on said screw means between said jaw elements for compression by and between said jaw elements and deformation into frictional contact with said draw screw means.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
52 words
A clamp comprising a pair of opposing jaw elements, draw screw means interconnecting said elements for adjusting said elements, and a block of elastomer material sleeved on said screw means between said jaw elements for compression by and between said jaw elements and deformation into frictional contact with said draw screw means.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
37 words
The invention according to claim 5 and said clamping portions embracing said block of elastomer material and said elements defining spaces therebetween accommodating bulging of said block therethrough for abutment with associated members clamped between said elements.
