Abstract
A clamping device for clamping two parts which more particularly serves for fixing a workpiece palette on a workpiece table. A bolster provided with a projecting shape element is secured to the first part and a cooperating part provided with a recess for receiving the shape element is secured to the second part. A sliding element which runs through the projecting shape element has at least one peripheral recess, into which at least one clamping element is engaged. The clamping element can be moved in a through hole in the shape element and fits in a non-clamping position, and on sliding the sliding element the clamping element is thrust outward into the clamping position. In the clamping position the clamping element interlocks in a recess in the cooperating part.
