Abstract
A drawing apparatus in a press or similar forming system has a blank holder which can be acted upon by one or optionally several pressure cylinders. Blocking devices are provided which act, in one case, directly upon a pressure cheek supporting the blank holder and, in another case, indirectly upon the pressure cheek by way of an articulated train or transmission train. Thereby, an unintentional lifting or lowering of the blank holder is prevented when the press is inoperative.
