Abstract

An adapter for receiving a medical technical device and a position detecting system, wherein the adapter may comprise a first holding element, a second holding element, a spring exerting a restoring force on the second holding element, and a fixing element for fixing the position detecting system. The second holding element may be supported by the first holding element such that it can move and can be moved in a direction counter to the restoring force of the spring placing the adapter in a receiving state allowing the medical technical device to be inserted into the adapter. In the absence of the force acting counter to the restoring force of the spring, the spring may move the second holding element in the direction of the restoring force, placing the adapter in a clamping state and securing the adapter to the medical technical device.
