Preferably, the taper ratio of the bushings ranges between 1 and 4 %.

The purpose of the invention is to adapt the taper ratio (C1; C2) of the device (1, 20) based on the thickness to be clamped (12, 31).

Preferably, the taper ratio of the bushings ranges between 1 and 4 %.

In service values of equivalent conicity

The included taper angle β is also the taper angle of the outer circumferential surface (18) of the ring (10).

The second taper of the second region is greater than the first taper of the first region.

The outer surface of the cooling bushing has a taper that corresponds to the taper of the collar.

Equivalent conicity, wheel profile and limits

Equivalent conicity (4.2.5.5.2) — in-service

Design values for equivalent conicity

The taper may vary along the periphery of the tibial augment, so that at least a portion of a medial taper (118) is different from at least a portion of a lateral taper (116).

The first and second portions have a respective angle of taper with respect to the center line (45) of the cavity wherein the angle of taper of the second portion (58) is less than the angle of taper of the first portion (54).
