CA 1256907

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The invention relates to vices, particularly but not exclusively of the handy-man type. With such vices it is not usual for a user to have a number of sizes of vice. Consequently, with a conventional vice with a range of openings up to approximately 3 to 4 inches, the gripping of a wider workpiece provides a considerable difficulty. It is the object of the invention to provide a means of extending the range of opening of a vice in simple, cost-effective manner. The objective is met by a construction comprising a body portion on which is pro- vided a fixed jaw, a movable jaw mounted on at least one slide extending through a plain hole in the body portion and with a drive screw rotatably secured to the movable jaw and extending through a threaded hole in the body portion, characterised in that said movable jaw is mount- able on the body portion in a first position to co-operate with and be movable towards and away from the fixed jaw, and in a second position where the at least one slide and drive screw extend in the opposite direction through the respective plain and threaded holes in the body por- tion, and whereby the movable jaw co-operates with and is movable towards and away from a second fixed jaw on the body portion rearwardly of the first fixed jaw.
