Abstract
A plurality of workpiece holdersare attached on a slide plateon a barand connected to a movable plateby a plate connecting portion. The plate connecting portionincludes an engaging portionthat is provided on the movable plateand an engaged portionthat is provided on the slide plateand engaged with the engaging portion. By moving a fixed bardownward relative to a movable bar, the movable baris detached and the engagement of the engaging portionwith the engaged portionis released. Since both of the movable barand the slide platecan be detached by a single downward movement of the fixed bar, no actuator is required, thereby simplifying the structure.
