Monday Mystery; Hinging clamp device

Here's a clamping device designed to be fastened to a workbench, One end hinges up and latches in place. The eight legged clamp winds down into place. What is it?

Looks like a tire tube patching press to me. I had a smaller one similar to this. Missing the square insulator. Put in the tube, put on the vulcanizing patch, set it on fire and stand back!
