A clamp includes a housing, a fixed gripper, a moveable gripper, a driven member, and an actuator. The housing includes first and second tracks. The fixed gripper is coupled to the housing. The driven member is configured to slide within the first and second tracks of the housing. The moveable gripper is operatively coupled to the driven member. The actuator is configured to move the driven member towards a first position to thereby move the moveable gripper towards the fixed gripper. The actuator is further configured to move the driven member towards a second position to thereby move the moveable gripper away from the fixed gripper.

A clamp, comprising: a housing including first and second tracks;a fixed gripper coupled to the housing;a driven member configured to slide within the first and second tracks of the housing;a moveable gripper operatively coupled to the driven member;an actuator configured to move the driven member towards a first position to thereby move the moveable gripper towards the fixed gripper, the actuator further configured to move the driven member towards a second position to thereby move the moveable gripper away from the fixed gripper, wherein the actuator is a handle pivotally coupled to the housing; andfirst and second linkages, wherein the first linkage is coupled to a first side of the handle and to a first side of the driven member, and the second linkage is coupled to a second side of the handle and to a second side of the driven member. 2. A clamp, comprising: a housing including first and second tracks;a fixed gripper coupled to the housing;a driven member configured to slide within the first and second tracks of the housing;a moveable gripper operatively coupled to the driven member;an actuator configured to move the driven member towards a first position to thereby move the moveable gripper towards the fixed gripper, the actuator further configured to move the driven member towards a second position to thereby move the moveable gripper away from the fixed gripper, wherein the actuator is a handle pivotally coupled to the housing;a first latching portion on the handle; anda second latching portion on the housing, wherein the first and second latching portions are configured to cooperate to releasably latch the handle to the housing. 3. A clamp comprising: a housing including first and second tracks;a fixed gripper coupled to the housing;a driven member configured to slide within the first and second tracks of the housing;a moveable gripper operatively coupled to the driven member;an actuator configured to move the driven member towards a first position to thereby move the moveable gripper towards the fixed gripper, the actuator further configured to move the driven member towards a second position to thereby move the moveable gripper away from the fixed gripper, wherein the actuator is a handle pivotally coupled to the housing; andan over-center linkage configured to bias the handle toward a closed position when the handle is actuated toward the closed position beyond a threshold, wherein the over-center linkage is further configured to bias the handle toward an open position when the handle is actuated toward the open position beyond the threshold. 4. The clamp according to claim 3, wherein the clamp is configured to clamp to a support pole of a rack apparatus, wherein the rack apparatus comprises the support pole and at least one support plate having a mount connector. 5. A clamp, comprising: a housing including first and second tracks;a fixed gripper coupled to the housing;a driven member configured to slide within the first and second tracks of the housing;a moveable gripper operatively coupled to the driven member;an actuator configured to move the driven member towards a first position to thereby move the moveable gripper towards the fixed gripper, the actuator further configured to move the driven member towards a second position to thereby move the moveable gripper away from the fixed gripper; anda gripper sled slidably coupled to the driven member, wherein the driven member includes a stop member configured to prevent movement of the gripper sled relative to the driven member beyond a predetermined location of the driven member. 6. The clamp according to claim 5, wherein the moveable gripper is coupled to the gripper sled. 7. The clamp as in any one of claims 5 and 6, wherein the actuator is a handle pivotally coupled to the housing. 8. The clamp as in any one of claims 1, 2, 3, and 4, further comprising a gripper sled slidably coupled to the driven member. 9. The clamp according to claim 8, further comprising a bias member configured to bias the gripper sled within the driven member towards the fixed gripper. 10. The clamp as in any one of claims 1, 5, 2, 3, and 4, according to wherein the bias member is a constant force spring. 11. The clamp as in any one of claims 1, 5, 2, 3, and 4, wherein the bias member is a compression spring. 12. The clamp as in any one of claims 1, 5, 2, 3, and 4, wherein the clamp is configured to allow the gripper sled to stop when abutting against an object while allowing the driven member to continue to move as the actuator is further actuated. 13. The clamp as in any one of claims 1, 5, 2, 3, and 4, wherein the gripper sled is rigidly coupled to the moveable gripper, wherein the clamp further comprises a bias member configured to bias the gripper sled within the driven member towards the fixed gripper.
