Securing device for transporting and mounting a measuring arrangement
First Claim
1. A securing device for transporting and mounting a measuring arrangement for the determination of the position of two components which are movable with respect to each other, said measuring arrangement comprising a linearly extending measuring graduation, a support body for said measuring graduation, a scanning device for scanning said measuring graduation, which is guided at a defined distance from said measuring graduation, and a mounting base for fastening said scanning device to one of said two components which are movable with respect to each other, wherein said securing device comprises:
- a base body which is longitudinally shifted along a guide track of said support body, and which is on the one hand fixable to said mounting base; and
which is on the other hand fixable to said support body in order to maintain said mounting base in a defined nominal position with respect to said support body; and
an extended part protruding away from said base body and extending along said measuring graduation in an extension direction; and
a connector provided on said extended part which can be automatically brought into engagement with a connecting point of said mounting base.

Abstract
A securing device for transporting and mounting a measuring arrangement that includes a linearly extending measuring graduation, a support body for the measuring graduation, a scanning device for scanning the measuring graduation, and a mounting base for fastening the scanning device to one of two components movable with respect to each other. The securing device includes a base body which is longitudinally shifted along a guide track of the support body and which is on the one hand fixable to the mounting base and which is on the other hand fixable to the support body in order to maintain the mounting base in a defined nominal position with respect to the support body and an extended part protruding away from the base body and extending along the measuring graduation in an extension direction. A connector provided on the extended part which can be automatically brought into engagement with a connecting point of the mounting base.

32. A measuring arrangement for determining the position of two components, which are movable in relation to each other, the arrangement comprising:
-
a linearly extending measuring graduation;
a support body for said measuring graduation, said support body comprising a guide track;
a scanning device that scans said measuring graduation and is guided at a defined distance from said measuring graduation;
a mounting base that fastens said scanning device to one of said two components which are movable with respect to each other; and
a securing device comprising;
a base body longitudinally shifted along said guide track, wherein said base body can be fastened to said mounting base and said base body can be fastened to said support body in order to maintain said mounting base in a defined nominal position with respect to said support body; and
an extended part protruding away from said base body and extending along said measuring graduation in an extension direction; and
a connector provided on said extended part which can be automatically brought into engagement with a connecting point of said mounting base. - View Dependent Claims (33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48)
