Abstract
A polishing fixture (20) for use with a polishing machine comprises a plurality of clamping assemblies (41) (22). The fixture (20) includes a connector holder plate (28) which has a perimeter edge (30). A plurality of slots (42) obliquely extend inwardly from the perimeter edge (30) through the plate (28). A force transmitting body (26) having an internal rim (32) is positioned around the perimeter edge (30) of the connector holder plate (28) so as to provide a camming action against convex cam surfaces (52). The camming action of the internal rim (32) of the force transmitting body (26) and the convex cam surface (52) on the perimeter (30) of the connector holder plate (28) deflect a corresponding beam (44) inwardly to clamp a connector (49) positioned in a corresponding one of the camping assemblies (41).
