Patent number: 6701815Abstract: A device for positionally-accurate accommodation of at least one secondary member on a carrier, such as a toolholder on a turret disc, comprises of adjustable locating means for positionally-accurate adjustment of the secondary member relative to the carrier. The locating means comprise of a bearing surface (24), which is laterally arranged on the carrier in the vicinity of its seat-engaging surface and which are arranged on a locating member that is adjustable relative to the carrier by means of adjusting means (30). Moreover the secondary member (17) comprises of stopping means, which are similarly allocated to the locating member in the vicinity of its seat-engaging surface (170) and which, when a secondary member is mounted on the seat-engaging surface of the carrier, are held in contact with the stopping face with prestress.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 2002Date of Patent: March 9, 2004Assignee: ESA Eppinger GmbHInventor: Joël Judas
