Abstract
A mechanism for clamping workpieces includes a base body, a first clamping unit, a second clamping unit, and an inserting member. The base body includes at least two elastic members. Both the first clamping unit and the second clamping unit include a splint assembly movably sleeved on the base body and a moving member. The inserting member is coupled to the base body. When the inserting member is withdrawn from or inserted into a space between the two moving members, the two splint assemblies can be moved away from each other to release a workpiece, or brought together to clamp a workpiece.
