  • Publication number: 20070023235
    Abstract: A supporting body (2) is provided for the scaffold poles (3) of a position scaffolding (1) for positioning one or several tension jacks (29) or other functional elements. The supporting body (2) includes a joint (19) for connecting to a manipulator (30) and several double clamp devices (32) provided with paired clamping elements (4) for the cantilever fixation of the scaffold pole (3). The double clamp devices (32) includes parallel adjacent bars (5, 14, 16, 17) which are jointed to the supporting body (2) and form at least one pole reception area (8) whose cross section is adapted to the scaffold pole.
