A mold clamping device for a pressing machine which bends a plate material inserted between upper and lower molds. The mold clamping device comprises a main frame (1) of integral structure, a holding ram (13) mounted on the upper half of the mainframe (1) and for supporting the upper mold (8) for vertical movement, a pair of arch-type thick springs (6) vertically mounted on the upper half of the main frame, and a crank mechanism (10) with which the upper end of each of the arch-type thick spring is connected through a crank pin (17). The crank mechanism creates a rotational force at a position near the dead center of the crank pins (17). This rotational force resiliently deforms the arch-type thick springs (6) which in turn create a resilient force for pressing the upper mold (8) against the lower mold (9). This provides an accurate and stable clamping force between the upper and lower molds.
