English term

"In a preferred method, the holder is in the form of a block slidably mounted in a recess in a holder support, said block being biased outwardly by resilient means, e.g. compression springs, retained between said block and said holder support. This arrangement has the advantage that the holder can be closed tightly by pushing the block against the resilient bias, and this can be done by means such as a solenoid or an air cylinder"
