    摘要: The object of the invention is a clamp mechanism, clamping on a tube made of elastic material, provided with a band clamped on a tube. Inside the tube (21), in the location where the band (23) clamps there is located a stiff element (22) having a diameter substantially corresponding to the inner diameter of the tube. The band (23) encompasses the tube (21) over the length of at least the half of its circumference and is connected to tensioning and releasing means (25, 27, 29). The object of the invention is also a system locking a multitubular manipulator, wherein a locking mechanism according to the invention is mounted on each of the tubes (41a, 41b, 41c). Further, the object of the invention is a method of operating a reconfigurable manipulator comprising curled strip tubes, characterised in that the manipulator is provided with a locking system according to the invention, which is released for reconfiguration of the manipulator and clamped for normal operation.
