Pinning table for fabric stacks

A pinning table for fabric stacks comprising:

• an upper fixed platen provided with holes, and intended to receive said fabric stack;
• a lower movable platen, substantially parallel to said upper platen;
• a plurality of removable pins supported by said lower platen and adapted to be introduced into said holes in the upper platen;
• means for imparting a translational movement to said lower platen with respect to said fixed upper platen, in a direction perpendicular to said platens;
• and
• locking means for locking said pins in said lower platen, said locking means comprising at least first and second superimposed plates forming said lower platen, each of said first and second plates having a plurality of orifices arranged identically and corresponding to the holes in said upper platen, and in which said pins can be introduced,
• at least one of said plates being slidable, with respect to the other plate, through actuating means between two end positions, a first position in which said pins are free in said orifices and a second position in which said pins are locked in said orifices by jamming between said plates.
