ABSTRACT:
An adjustable adapter, expecially useful for modular fixturing has provisions for mounting a variety of types and sizes of spring stop buttons and spring locating pins. These are secured in linear alignment with a slot in the adaptor base. When used to press a workpiece against stops, the reaction of their applied spring force is directed precisely along the line of this base slot. A single bolt in the slot thus suffices to secure the adaptor to a base plate, because this reaction causes no twisting moment about the point of bolting. Since only one bolt is required in the slot, the adaptor is compact and well suited for use with a modular fixturing plate; the slot length need be no longer than half the modular spacing of the plate bores.
