Abstract
An apparatus for holding of workpieces with at least one vertical bore, particularly for holding a connecting rod, for a honing operation. The apparatus includes two workpiece receiving plates between which the workpiece is insertable with horizontal and vertical play. The workpiece receiving plates have an opening for receiving the honing tool. A holding device is provided and is fixable relative to a workpiece receiving plate; vertically the holding device engages the workpiece free of play at a slight engagement pressure. The holding device is freely movable toward the workpiece in a first direction, and is immovable in the opposite direction. The honing device comprises at least one angle lever, which is tiltable or pivotally journalled relative to a workpiece receiving plate, has one arm engaging against the workpiece, and has the other arm connected with a device which restrains the angle lever in the release or loosening direction.
