A clamp ring includes an elongated band formed into the shape of an open generally circular ring with opposing first and second ends. A cam lever is pivotally connected to a first end of the band and a link has one end pivotally connected to the cam lever. The opposite end of the link is connected to the second end of the band such that pivotal movement of the cam lever will selectively draw the ends of the band towards one another to secure the ring in position on a container. A removable handle is provided to engage and pivot the cam lever 20 and includes a polygonal pin for engagement with a corresponding socket on the cam lever.

[ We claim:] [1.] A clamp ring, comprising:an elongated band formed into the shape of an open, generally circular ring, with opposite first and second ends spaced from one another, said band having an inward face and an outward face;a link having first and second ends, the first end pivotally connected to said band first end on a pivot axis orthogonal to a radius of said circular band;a cam lever, having first and second ends, said first end pivotally connected to said band second end on a pivot axis parallel to said link first end pivot axis;said link second end pivotally connected to said cam lever between said cam lever pivot axis and said cam lever second end;said cam lever being operable between a first open position in which the extent of said cam lever diverges from said band, and a second closed position in which said lever second end is positioned adjacent said band and said link ends are positioned on opposite sides of said lever pivot axis; and radially inwardly of said lever pivot axis, to draw said band first end toward said band second end; andan elongated handle having a first end removably connected to said lever second end, and a second end projecting outwardly form said first ends in a plane substantially parallel to a plane formed by said circular band;said handle connected to said lever to pivot said lever on said lever pivot axis;said cam lever second end including a first half of a cooperable connector;said handle first end including a second half of said cooperable connector, for selective cooperable connection of said handle to said lever in one of a plurality of positions.
