What is a buret clamp?
Answer

A buret clamp is a chemistry laboratory support device, to affix and hold steady another piece of equipment (a glass column called a buret) which will be reacted with chemicals. The clamp has holding jaws, which are curved to firmly grasp the column in two portions of its long axis. It also has an attachment, by which it grasps the support post.
The clamp is a piece of hardware which makes a retaining bridge between the ground support post, and the chemically reactive vessel.
There are several basic designs and makes of buret clamps, which serve to accomodate the choices and work detail, of the chemist.

What is a buret clamp used for?

It's used for clamping a buret, of course.
I can actually think of three distinct pieces of equipment that
could reasonably be called a "buret clamp", and I'm not certain
which of them you mean.
One of them is a pinch clamp used to clamp the outflow tube (a
rubber or plastic tube from the bottom of certain types of
burets).
Another one is sometimes called a tube clamp, and is a piece of
hardware used to secure a glass tube of some kind (such as a buret,
but also a test tube or parts of a vacuum manifold) to a metal
stand or framework.
Finally, there's a specialized spring-loaded piece of hardware
used specifically for burets, which holds and supports them in two
places on the tube (the tube clamp clamps onto the buret in a
single location on the tube).

What is the use of a Geissler buret?

A Geissler buret (not to be confused with a Geissler tube, which
is something else entirely) is used to deliver a variable but
controllable and measurable quantity of solution. For those who
don't know the term, the Geissler buret is the one with the
built-in stopcock at the bottom as opposed to the kind with the
flexible tubing attachment at the bottom.
