Abstract

A lower tool support for a stamping machine or the like having a lower frame and a tool saddle with a saddle plate, movably disposed on the saddle surface of the lower frame, with adjusting devices for the adjustment of the tool saddle in relation to the lower frame in the plane of the saddle surface and an arresting device for fixing the tool saddle on the lower frame being provided, the saddle plate of the tool saddle having at least one lower flange and the arresting device having at least one fastening flange formfittingly overlapping the lower flange, the fastening flange in the plane of the saddle surface having an exactly determined relative position in respect to the lower frame, thus securing the saddle plate against vertical lifting from the saddle surface. In the installation of the tool saddle this lower tool support has the vertical distance of the fastening flange of the arresting device from the saddle surface of the lower frame exactly predetermined and is somehwat larger than the thickness of the lower flange of the saddle plate.
