摘要:
@ Means for mounting a workpiece holder such as a collet on a support element such as the arbor of a machine tool in preparation for machining comprises a support member (10; 100) for attachment to the arbor and a plate member (60; 150) carrying the collet, the support member and the plate member having respectively a frustoconical boss (55; 152) and a complementary recess (88; 102). The support member has latch elements (38; 104) which move in and out under the control of a locking ring (44; 130) and engage groove means on the plate member. The workpiece mounting can thus be changed rapidly and reliably with most of the set-up being carried out away from the machine tool.
