Description: |
| Abstract:
A machine tool comprises a mounting member for attachment to a workpiece. The mounting member includes a bearing portion that has an external surface of circular cross section and is formed with an aperture in its external surface. A utility device has an internal peripheral surface that defines a cylindrical cavity for receiving the bearing portion of the mounting member in a manner that allows the utility device to move axially and rotationally relative to the mounting member. A clamp is actuable when the utility device is fitted to the bearing portion of the mounting member for releasably retaining the utility device against axial and rotational movement relative to the bearing portion. A spring-loaded detent member projects into the cylindrical cavity from the peripheral surface and is receivable in the aperture of the bearing portion for retaining the operating assembly against axial and rotational movement relative to the bearing portion in the event that the clamp is not actuated. |
