Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9964179A1] An arrangement for use in clamping a vehicle to a straightening bench. The arrangement includes a support arm (6) whose one leg is provided with means for fitting the arm into a mounting groove (3) that extends along the sides of said bench. The other leg of the arm is intended to support clamping means for clamping a vehicle chassis to the arm. The means for fitting one leg of the support arm (6) in the mounting groove of the straightening bench include two mounting jaws (12, 15). A first (12) of these jaws is fixed to the arm (6) and intended to grip behind a flange (5) along one edge of the groove (3). The other jaw (15) is moveable relative to the first jaw and displaceable towards said jaw while overcoming a spring force (17) and is intended to grip behind a flange (4) along the other edge of the groove (3). The arm can therewith be fitted into the groove by swinging the arm upwards (A) when the lower jaw (12) rests in the lower part of the mounting groove (3).
