Abstract
A device for fastening printing forms (10) on printing form cylinders (1) of rotary printing presses. The printing forms (10) extend into a clamping channel (3) with their leading edge (12) and their trailing edge (13) and are tensioned therein, via clamping elements, on the lateral surface (2) of the printing form cylinder (1) in a circumferential direction of the printing form cylinder (1) and retained in the clamping channel (3). The clamping elements are accommodated on a tensioning shaft (6) which is rotatably inserted in a bore of the printing form cylinder (1). The clamping elements are designed as spring elements (16, 27) in Y-shape (21), including a first and a second resilient section (17, 19).
