INSTRUMENTATION CLAMP Alan L. Grantz David A. Gollnick A clamp for clamping instrumentation uses a resilient tube and a compression housing operatively associated with the tube for providing a compressive force on the tube. The compressive force is distributed generally equally over the length of the tube so that instrumentation disposed through the tube is substantially secured within the housing with minimal deformation. The clamp is especially adaptable to fragile instrumentation, such as optical fibers, which typically are clamped for manipulation. In one embodiment, the clamp is permanently attached to one instrument, while clamping another instrument for simultaneous manipulation. In another embodiment, the instrumentation clamp can couple to one instrument temporarily, while clamping another instrument. This embodiment is designed to be self contained and readily adaptable for multiple uses.
