ABSTRACT:
A device for sidewise alignment of a flat workpiece on a table includes a lower pull member for moving a flat workpiece toward a side stop and a pad for pressing the flat workpiece onto the pull member. The pad is fitted above the pull member on a bar that is lowered when the flat workpiece is applied against a front stop, and this pad is movable in translation along an axis parallel to the pull member. A spring urges the pad back to its initial position when the bar is raised to disengage the pad from the surface of the workpiece. The pull member and bar extend over the whole width of the table and the pull member is arranged in a groove made along an upper surface of a crossbar of the table, whereas the sides of the bar are held by ends of lever arms which are mounted for rotation on sides of the table frame.
