ABSTRACT:
An indexing device comprises an indexing table fixed to a table shaft rotatably supported on a body structure. A worm shaft is rotatably supported on the body structure and has a worm formed thereon. An indexing gear is fixed coaxially to the indexing table. The indexing device has a rotation correction device for stopping the rotation of the worm shaft prior to the indexing operation of the indexing table. The indexing device further has a positioning device for operating, after the worm shaft has been thus stopped, to impart a rotational torque to the indexing table and to cause a gear tooth face of the indexing gear to press against and hold a worm tooth face of the worm, whereby the precision of positioning of the indexing table is improved.
