A mount on the probe head of a coordinate measuring machine is described. For rapid change of a probe pin carrier, accommodating at least one probe pin, which is drawn against a bearing which clearly determines the position of the probe pin carrier in the probe head, a mechanical clamp mechanism, which acts on the bearing part of the probe pin carrier, and compression-creating and tension-creating media, actuating the clamp mechanism, are provided in the probe head.
