Three different forms of clamps may be had for these microtomes, and
freezing apparatus as well as paraffin tables can also be fitted.
The Fixed clamp, No. 128, represented in the figure of the large sliding
microtome, serves to clamp the specimen in position and does not allow
any further adjustment.
The Ball and Socket clamp permits the adjustments of the specimen after
it is held in the clamp by means of a ball and socket joint--see figure
of No. 129--a set-screw then holds it firmly in position.
The Naples clamp permits the accurate adjustment of the specimen at any
level, the clamp being supported on two horizontal axes at right angles
to each other, the one controlled by rack and pinion, the other by
endless screw.
The knife-carrier is arranged to hold the Thoma form knives, which are
fastened by means of a wing-screw. Other knives require a special
holder, such as No. 139.
122. =The Large Sliding Microtome= has a track 42 cm
long. Its price with automatic feed attachement, wheel
and chain arrangement for the knife carrier, and fixed
clamp, without knife =62.--=
123. =The same=, with knife holder for Jung microtome
knives =66.--=
124. =The same=, but without the wheel and chain
arrangement for the knife carrier =50.--=
125. =Medium size Sliding Microtome=--Track 32 cm long;
automatic feed attachement; wheel and chain motion of
knife carrier and fixed specimen clamp--without knife =56.--=
126. =The same=, with knife holder for Jung microtome
knives =60.--=
127. =The same=, but without wheel and chain motion =44.--=
128. =Fixed Specimen Clamp= =4.--=
129. =Ball and Socket Clamp= =6.--=
130. =Naples Clamp= =12.--=
[Illustration: Ball and Socket Clamp No. 129. Naples Clamp No. 130.]
131. =The Support-Microtome= has a track 19 cm long. The
knife-carrier slides on a double flanged support and is
moved by means of a large knob. The motion is smooth and
quick. The specimen is held in a clamp supported on two
adjustable axes at right angles to each other, thus
permitting its adjustment in any position. The specimen
carrier is moved vertically by means of a micrometer
screw to which a large disc is attached. This disc is
graduated, each degree representing a motion of the
specimen carrier of 0,005 mm. The price of this
microtome with knifeholder No. 139, without box or knife
is =34.--=
