Abstract
In an electric clamp apparatus, a drive unit including a motor is disposed on an end of a body on which a clamp arm is rotatably supported. The drive unit includes a hollow housing connected to the body, and a motor unit, which is configured to be accommodated in the interior of the housing. After the motor unit has been inserted into the interior of the housing from one end side thereof, two lock plates, which are disposed on a frame of the motor unit, are rotated, whereby holes of the lock plates are made to engage with projections of the housing. As a result, the motor unit is fixed in a state of being accommodated in the housing.
