Abstract
A multiple vise includes fixed jaws (7, 8) at the opposite ends of a vise body (1) and movable jaws (5, 6) located between the fixed jaws and cooperating therewith to provide two vises. The two movable jaws (5, 6) and thus the two vises are operated simultaneously by a two-part spindle (11, 12) with opposite screw threads (15, 16). A power amplifier (28, 29, 34) is provided between the spindle parts (11, 12) and, in the clamping position, urges the spindle parts away from each other.
