An adjustable clamp assembly ( 600 ) includes an elongated connection member ( 640 ) and a gear assembly ( 650 ). The gear assembly includes a rotatable first gear member having an axis of rotation substantially perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the connection member ( 640 ). The gear assembly also includes a second gear member cooperatively engaged with the first gear member. The clamp assembly further includes a first clamp member ( 630 ). The elongated connection member ( 640 ), the gear assembly ( 650 ) and the first clamp member ( 630 ) are arranged such that rotation of the first gear member results in a linear motion of the first clamp member ( 630 ) parallel to the longitudinal axis of the connection member ( 640 ).
