History[edit]
The first locking pliers, named Vise-Grips, were invented by William S. Petersen in De Witt, Nebraska in 1924.[1]
She started singing the second verse of 'Poker Face' in a style accompanied by a violin player while wearing a shiny aluminum shoulder pad and platinum bleached blond wig. The performance started with Gaga sitting at a Plexiglass piano filled with bubbles and bathed in pink light. Gaga wore a nude corseted leotard embellished with crystals and an admiral's hat during the performance. Lady gaga poker face teclado. The hat as well as the fingerless gloves worn were decorated with the word Gaga on it.On April 1, 2009, both the acoustic and normal version of 'Poker Face' was performed live on 's.
In 1955 'Mole wrenches' were developed by Thomas Coughtrie (1917–2008), who was at that time managing director of M. K. Mole and Son.[2] The wrenches were manufactured in Newport, Wales, just off the M4, near to the Brynglas Tunnels; travelling west on the motorway, the Mole sign was visible immediately before entering the tunnels.
Mechanism[edit]
One side of the handle of locking pliers includes a bolt that is used to adjust the spacing of the jaws, the other side of the handle (especially in larger models) often includes a lever to push the two sides of the handles apart to unlock the pliers. 'Mole' and 'Vise-Grip' are trade names of different brands of locking pliers, yet mechanics and do-it-yourself hobbyists and craftspeople generically refer to locking pliers as 'Vise-Grips' in the US, and 'Mole grips' in the UK. In Ireland the tool is known as a 'vice grip'.
Locking pliers are available in many different configurations, such as needle-nose locking pliers, locking wrenches, locking clamps and various shapes to fix metal parts for welding. They also come in many sizes.
Operation[edit]
The bolt is used to set the jaws to a size slightly smaller than what is to be gripped. The jaws are then closed on the gripped object.
Because of the lever action the jaws move only slightly but with much force. Locking pliers have four advantages:
- Their lever action is stronger than that of ordinary pliers, so they can apply much more force;
- Even though they can apply more force, they do so in a very controlled manner; this is because the jaws will never close beyond the set point;
- The closing point and with it the force that is applied on the gripped object can be finely controlled;
- When they are closed they remain closed on their own without any user intervention.
A typical usage would be to hold metal parts in place for welding. They are also used for holding a nut or bolt that has been 'rounded'; pulling out nails; holding pipes without squeezing them; or as temporary levers/knobs on equipment and machinery.
