ABSTRACT:
A targeting apparatus for a locking nail with a first section which is releasably connectable to the allocated end of the nail, with a bow-like second section connected to the first section, which comprises a receiving section running approximately parallel to the nail when the nail is connected to the first section and which comprises at least one transverse bore for the approximate fitting accommodation of a guiding sleeve. The receiving section consists of a first part rigidly formed with the second section and facing the first section, and of an outer second part movable relative to the first part against spring force, wherein the transverse bore extends through both parts and the bore in the parts is selected such that with a relaxed second part the sleeve is held in a slightly clamping manner and with a certain adjustment of the second part to the first part is freely displaceable in the bore.
