  • the threaded rod is similar 20 in a through hole not visible in FIG. 1 on the outside of the Leg 6 accessible.
  • FIG. 2a shows a vertical section through the frame according to FIG. 1 along the line a-a.
  • the carriage 8 has a recess 22 into which a threaded bushing 24 is inserted is whose thread engages that of the threaded rod 20.
  • the threaded bush 24 is in the longitudinal direction of the threaded rod 20 with a fit in the recess 22. So that the threaded rod 20 is rotatable in the holding frame 2, but not longitudinally displaceable, 2b, which is an enlarged representation compared to FIG. 2a of the end region of the threaded rod 20 with the associated region of the holding frame shows an annular groove 26, into which one inserted into a slot recess 28 of the frame 2 Spring part 30 is snapped.
  • the spring part 30 is, for example, overall U-shaped trained and snaps into the ring groove with its elastically expandable legs 26 a.
  • the threaded rod 20 which is only in its central area must be provided with a thread, immobile in the longitudinal direction, but rotatable in the holding frame 52 added.
  • one is, for example, a square 32 formed end of the threaded rod 20, which is accessible from outside the holding frame 2 and to which a tool for rotating the threaded rod 20 is attached can.
  • FIG. 2c shows a section through the holder along the line c-c in FIG. 1.
  • adjacent side surfaces of the frame 2 are made of metal, for example existing and effective as guides flat profiles 34 used in corresponding Engage grooves 36 of the carriage 8.
  • the holder is assembled as follows:
  • the holder assembled in this way is an extremely flexible tool created on the by inserting the retaining pin 12 in the frame 2 and Carriage 8 different components can be held securely.
  • the frame 2 can by means of screws inserted through the holes 10 from above onto each support can be attached or it can by means of the lateral threaded holes 16 on the side Walls. It can also be provisionally clamped on any Parts are attached.
  • the frame and the slide can be made of different materials, such as wood, glued plywood, plastic, metal etc.
  • Fig. 3 shows an embodiment of the holder, which has two carriages 8, which in the Frame 2 are longitudinally movable.
  • the frame 2 in turn has a U-shaped frame part 4 and the leg 6.
  • a spacer 38 is provided, which with the Frame part 4 can be formed in one piece or screwed to it, glued or otherwise can be connected. It is understood that the carriage 8 on the frame part 4 and the spacer 38 are longitudinally guided.
  • wall parts 40 are indicated with which the peripheral surface of the frame 2 can be screwed so that the holder forms the upper cover plate of a frame. It is understood that the wall portions 40 have holes for inserting them into the threaded holes 16 of the frame 2 engaging screws (not shown) and with others Holes 22 are provided through which the ends of the threaded rods 20 are accessible are.
  • FIG. 4 shows how a wide variety of objects are held in the holder according to FIG. 3 can be.
  • a round object 42 is between the holding pin 12 held, two of which are fixed to the frame and one each on one of the slides 8 is arranged.
  • a rod-shaped object 44 is held.
  • Fig. 5 shows different arrangements of holders 50, which correspond to the embodiment 3 are formed.
