Abstract
With a docking device for the coupling of a handler or prober to a test head for electronic components, at least one locking unit is provided, which has an axially displaceable ball element clamping sleeve. This ball element clamping sleeve is surrounded by an annular pressure chamber, closing pressure-tight opposite the introduction area of the locking pin and can be moved in an axial direction by means of a ring piston, which can be actuated by a pressure means introduced into the pressure chamber.
