Abstract
A positioning device for a preloading ring of a hot forming machine is provided. The device has a first holding element and a second holding element. The first holding element has a first recess and a second recess. The second recess is at a distance radially with respect the first recess. The second holding element is arranged in a region of and faces the first and second recess. The first and second holding elements are configured and arranged movably about respective axes with respect to each other so that movement towards each other encloses a glass tube in each of the first and second recesses and between the holding elements.

A positioning device for a preloading ring of a hot forming machine, comprising:
- a first holding element with an inner indentation, an outer indentation, and a first rotation axis;
- a second holding element with an inner indentation, an outer indentation, and a second rotation axis, the inner indentations of the first and second holding elements facing one another to define an inner tube guide and the outer indentations of the first and second holding elements facing one another to define an outer tube guide;
- a base plate, the first and second holding elements movably secured on the base plate at the first and second axes, respectively, with the first and second axes spaced-apart from one another so that the first and second holding elements move between an open position and a closed position,
- the first and second holding elements being configured so that, in the closed position, the inner and outer tube guides each enclose a glass tube in the closed position, and
- the first and second holding elements being configured so that, in the open position, glass tubes can be moved between first and second holding elements along an axis of symmetry from the outer tube guide to the inner tube guide.
A positioning device for a preloading ring of a hot forming machine, comprising:
- a first holding element with a first recess and a second recess;
- and
- a second holding element arranged in a region of and facing the first and second recesses,
- wherein the first and second holding elements are configured and arranged movably about respective axes so that movement towards each other encloses a glass tube in each of the first and second recesses and between the holding elements, and
- wherein the first and second holding elements are connected via a first and second respective connecting rod to a piston that is guided in a direction along an axis of symmetry.
