Abstract

A multi-function clamp for veterinarian, mainly includes upper clip and lower clip; the clamp body is composed by upper clip, lower clip, bolt and torsional spring, wherein the foresaid clamp body installed with connection assembly that has connecting lead wires, and the connection assembly has several installation sections coordinates with the lead wire plug. By adopting the compatibility design, the multi-function clamp for veterinarian could apply to wider areas, a pet clinic equipped with the multi-function clamp for veterinarian is applicable even using the probe-type lead wires, the banana plug lead wires, the snap-type lead wires and the clip-type lead wires simultaneously, which greatly decreases the procurement cost for equipment and accessories, and easier to be operated. Furthermore, by adopting the anti-slip design, the multi-function clamp for veterinarian will improve remarkably for the matter the clamp drops off from the operators or the animal skins, which saves time in operation.
