Abstract
Two embodiments of a holder for standard specimen slides are disclosed which permit the use of only one hand when changing specimens and are characterized by simplicity in construction. In the first embodiment, the holder has a spring band (7) which is bent convexly towards the specimen slide (5) and clamps the slide against front-edge stops (2, 3, 4). In the second embodiment, the holder has a resiliently supported turnable disc (20) against the outer circumference of which the narrow side of the specimen slide (15) strikes tangentially upon the insertion. The disc (20) clamps the specimen slide (15) against the front-edge stop (12, 13, 14) after passing by it.
