ABSTRACT:
A device for releasably mounting a transfer bar (12) to the distal end (14) of a horizontal link (16) of a transfer press (18) includes a clamping mechanism (10) mounted to the distal end (14) of the horizontal link (16) for providing a pocket that supports the transfer bar (12). The clamping mechanism (10) includes a bore (20) for receiving the distal end (14) of the horizontal link (16) and a locking means for preventing relative movement between the clamping mechanism (10) and the horizontal link (16). The locking means comprises a key (22) for preventing rotation of the clamping mechanism (10) about the horizontal link (16). The clamping mechanism (10) defines a clamp which includes a threaded fastener (24) for tightening the clamp and locking the clamping mechanism (10) onto the distal end (14) of the horizontal link (16). The clamping mechanism (10) is substantially U-shaped for providing a pocket to hold the transfer bar (12), and includes a pin (26) that extends through the clamping mechanism (10) for retaining the transfer bar (12) in the pocket.
