ABSTRACT:
A lifting and storage apparatus is disclosed for handling a vise attachment for a vertical turret milling machine. The lifting means includes an articulated support arm that is adapted to attach at one end thereof to the glide or way provided on such machines for support and axial movement of the motorized milling tool. The articulated support is adapted at the distal end thereof to be clamped within the jaws of the vise attachment for support of the vise attachment when the movable bed of the milling machine is lowered. The articulation of the support arm allows free movement in the horizontal plane only; therefore, after the bed is lowered, the supported vise may be moved laterally to the side to a new position above the bed or to a storage position that is clear of the bed and of the work area related to the bed.
