Abstract

Bank for accommodating adjacent ram units, each of which consists of a flat, narrow frame. An electromagnetic actuator for a ram, which is guided in two bores of the frame, is positioned in a recess of the latter. For accommodating and guiding the individual ram units the bank has a substantially U-shaped cross-section. At least on one of its two ends, the frame of each ram unit is provided with a flexible pin arranged between two frame sections. The frames are detachably mounted between the U-sections of the bank. Both U-sections have recesses for positively and/or non-positively accommodating the front or rear frame part and the pin, respectively.
