Abstract

An upper and a lower rubber plug holders are provided with fixed arms to be inserted and held in upper and lower fixed blocks, and operatively pushed parts at ends of the fixed arms. The upper and lower fixed blocks are provided with slots in which the fixed arms are inserted and held and from which the operatively pushed parts are protruded on the side opposite to the insertion side. The slots are provided with balls and coil springs which fix the fixed arms inserted into the slots by the insertion of the fixed arms into the slots and allow the fixed arms to be pulled out of the slots by a push of the operatively pushed parts. This structure shortens time to change the parts and ensures easy and positive change of the parts.
