Abstract

A securing device for a rotatably mounted object with at least one receiving unit, which is fixed against rotation on a first component of the object with at least one clamping unit which is fixed against rotation to a second component of the object, which manually or by means of a rotary drive is moveable relative to the first component via a rotatably mounted joint about a rotational and/or swivel axis, and with at least one drive unit through which the clamping unit can be transferred from a release position, in which the first component and the second component are released for rotation relative to each other to a clamping position, in which the clamping unit frictionally and/or non-positively engages in the receiving unit, and the first component and the second component are fixed relative to each other against rotation about the rotary and/or swivel axis.
