Szorítókarok

Szorítókarok, often translated as clamping levers or toggle clamps, are mechanical devices used to hold an object securely in place. They are characterized by a lever mechanism that, when actuated, applies significant force to grip a workpiece. The primary advantage of a szorítókar is its ability to quickly and securely fasten or release an item with minimal effort.

The operation of most szorítókarok relies on a linkage system that multiplies the input force applied to the handle. As the handle is moved, the linkages extend and then lock into a position, creating a strong clamping action. Reversing the handle movement disengages the mechanism, allowing for rapid removal of the workpiece. This toggle action provides a stable and reliable hold.

Szorítókarok are commonly found in various industrial and workshop applications. They are essential for holding materials during welding, drilling, assembly, and inspection processes. Their versatility makes them suitable for a wide range of shapes and sizes of objects. Different designs exist, including vertical handle clamps, horizontal handle clamps, push/pull clamps, and latch clamps, each suited for specific operational needs and spatial constraints. The materials used in their construction, typically steel or aluminum, ensure durability and resistance to wear in demanding environments.
