  • Shaft holding device
    Patent number: 10369438
    Abstract: A shaft holding device comprises a body that has a top and a bottom and a central axis extending between the top and the bottom. A length of the body measured along the central axis is larger than a largest dimension measured perpendicular to the central axis. A plurality of slots is formed by the body and each is configured to releasably secure a shaft therein. Each of the plurality of slots has an axis spaced from and generally parallel with the central axis. Each of the plurality of slots is open along a side of the body and, for each cross section along the length of the body taken about a plane perpendicular to the central axis, each inner circumferential width of an opening of each of the plurality of slots is smaller than a diameter of each of the plurality of slots.
