Abstract
The clamping apparatus for imprinting disk-shaped information media consists of a base plate with a central centering aid for the information medium and a cover with an annular opening. The base plate is joined pivotably to the cover by means of a hinge. A closure mechanism is provided diametrically opposite the hinge, and elastic elements, on which the information medium rests and which when the cover is closed can be compressed by the information medium, are mounted on the base plate.
