Abstract
A holder for a medical implant having gripping and holding portions. The holding portion includes a base and at least two spaced-apart holding pins. Each pin extends axially between an outer face and free end of the base. At least one receiving opening extends between inner and outer faces of the base and tapers over at least one section. At least one first holding pin comprising a tapered axial section is inserted in the opening. A pressure surface is formed on a pin end on the inner face of the base. The section in which the opening tapers and the tapered pin axial section are such that when the pin is seated in the opening, the pin is transversely pivotable. The pressure element is movable and acts on a pressure surface portion on one side of a central axis of the pin and does not cover the central axis.
