Look down inside the holes, can you see springs that resemble valve springs? That appears to me to be what you are calling the "cone" type

Here's a very good page:

and here, from the above link, is a pic of a "sure grip"

Notice how the end of the housing is bolted on, and is "straight sided", and finished machined, not cast and tapered.
