The invention concerns a device for clamping the trunk of a Christmas tree or the like, the device comprising a stand having at least three clamping jaws (5) which are disposed in a base plate (1) having an opening (2) for receiving the trunk, are distributed about the opening (2), and can be moved in order to clamp the trunk in the opening (2). In order to adapt the clamping jaws (5) easily to the cross-section of the trunk, secure the latter reliably with a small stroke and be able to release or cancel the clamping effect easily, the base plate (1) is associated with a closure device which can move in two opposite directions. In one direction, the closure moves the clamping jaws (5) out of the opening (2) and, in the other direction, it first releases the clamping jaws (5) so that they can move into abutment on the trunk and then urges the clamping jaws (5) against the trunk with the necessary degree of clamping force.

L'invention concerne un dispositif permettant de serrer le tronc d'un arbre de Noël ou équivalent, ce dispositif comprenant un support possédant au moins trois mâchoires de serrage (5) qui sont disposées dans une plaque de base (1) présentant une ouverture (2) destinée à recevoir le tronc, sont réparties autour de l'ouverture (2), et peuvent être déplacées afin de serrer le tronc dans l'ouverture (2). Dans le but d'adapter les mâchoires de serrage (5) aisément à la section du tronc, de fixer ce dernier de manière fiable avec une faible course et de pouvoir libérer ou supprimer aisément l'effet de serrage, la plaque de base (1) est associée à un dispositif de fermeture pouvant se déplacer dans deux directions opposées. Dans une direction, le dispositif de fermeture déplace les mâchoires de serrage (5) hors de l'ouverture (2) et, dans l'autre direction, il libère tout d'abord les mâchoires de serrage (5) afin qu'elles puissent venir en butée sur le tronc, puis presse les mâchoires de serrage (5) contre le tronc avec la force de serrage nécessaire.
