BLOCK TRANSFER APPARATUS AND IMPROVED CLAMPING ASSEMBLY FOR USE THEREWITH
A block transfer apparatus for transferring a block between an upstream and downstream clamps of a block delivery system. The apparatus includes: a frame pivotally mounted to a support; a clamping assembly mounted to the frame and linearly extendable relative thereto, and including a pair of gripper jaws for clamping opposing sides of the block. The apparatus receives a block in the gripper jaws in an approximate position; rotates to a drop position and releases the block allowing it to self-datum onto first and second orthogonal datum surfaces. The apparatus re-clamps the block after the drop by applying a clamping force to opposing sides of the block to register the block against a third datum surface to thereby datum the position of the block with respect to the clamping assembly; and presents the block clamped in the datumed position for transfer to the downstream clamp.
