Abstract
An apparatus for moving a module in a guide channel includes levers which cooperate with cams associated therewith and contacting edges extending from the guide channels to apply forces for positioning the module. These forces are coupled to movable wedges, guided by wedges fixed to the module, which contact the walls of the guiding channels to clamp the module. Clamping forces are maintained by compressible elements such as Belleville washers or suitable springs coupled to the wedges fixed on the module.
