Abstract
The invention relates to a holding and resting device for medical instruments having essentially cylindrical instrument bodies, in particular endoscopic instruments, with a base body that can be secured for instance to an operating table and an instrument input to be inserted into the base body and in which the instrument body can be secured by clamping. To create a holding and resting device for medical instruments having essentially cylindrical instrument bodies, which is of simple construction and can be activated quickly and safely, it is proposed with the invention that the instrument input includes a ring-shaped tension casing with at least two holder arms as well as a tension nut that works together with the tension casing.
