Abstract: A coupling apparatus for adjustably mounting modular tooling members having a base member releasably connectable to a slide mount wherein the base member is adjustably located along a predetermined linear path of travel defined by the slide mount. The base member is rotatably adjustable with respect to a midportion via a pair of matingly engaging contoured surfaces. The contoured surfaces are substantially circular having V-shaped teeth extending radially outward. The V-shaped teeth of the contoured surfaces matingly engage and are secured by fasteners to prevent any radial movement of the midportion with respect to the end member. The midportion may also be rotatably adjustable with respect to an end member along a second centerline axis. The midportion and the end member may be adjustably rotated through a pair of contoured surfaces substantially similar to that provided between the midportion and the base member. The end member provides an aperture for releasably connecting a boom rod to the end member.

Abstract: A computer support for use in a vehicle interior includes a base having a pivotally secured riser bracket coupled thereto. The base is attached to a convenient vehicle surface such as the transmission hump or the like. A pair of telescoping risers are supported by the riser bracket and provide vertical movement of an arm carrier mechanism. The arm carrier in turn supports a pair of pivotally coupled arms which in turn support a platform bracket. A computer platform suitable for receiving and supporting a portable computer is received upon the platform bracket and includes a lock mechanism for securing the computer against unauthorized removal. Adjustments are provided for the vertical heights and horizontal position as well as angular tilt and horizontal angular position of the computer platform. Each adjustment of each position and angle includes apparatus for securing and maintaining a selected position.

Abstract: A precision device which can precisely actuate three degrees of freedom of an optic mount, commonly referred to as tip, tilt, and piston. The device consists of three identical flexure mechanisms, an optic mount to be supported and positioned, a structure that supports the flexure mechanisms, and three commercially available linear actuators. The advantages of the precision device is in the arrangement of the constraints offered by the flexure mechanism and not in the particular design of the flexure mechanisms, as other types of mechanisms could be substituted. Each flexure mechanism constrains two degrees of freedom in the plane of the mechanisms and one direction is actuated. All other degrees of freedom are free to move within the range of flexure mechanisms. Typically, three flexure mechanisms are equally spaced in angle about to optic mount and arranged so that each actuated degree of freedom is perpendicular to the plane formed by the optic mount. This arrangement exactly constrains the optic mount and allows arbitrary actuated movement of the plane within the range of the flexure mechanisms. Each flexure mechanism provides a mechanical advantage, typically on the order of 5:1, between the commercially available actuator and the functional point on the optic mount. This improves resolution by the same ratio and stiffness by the square of the ratio.

Abstract translation: 精密装置可以精确地驱动光学安装座的三个自由度，通常称为尖端，倾斜和活塞。 该装置由三个相同的挠曲机构，一个要被支撑和定位的光学支架，一个支撑弯曲机构的结构以及三个可商购的线性致动器组成。 精密装置的优点在于布置柔性机构提供的约束，而不是弯曲机构的特定设计，因为其他类型的机构可以被替代。 每个弯曲机构限制机构平面中的两个自由度，一个方向被致动。 所有其他自由度都可以在挠曲机构的范围内自由移动。 通常，三个弯曲机构的角度等于光学安装并且布置成使得每个致动的自由度垂直于由光学安装座形成的平面。 该布置精确地约束光学座，并且允许平面在挠曲机构的范围内的任意致动的移动。 每个弯曲机构在商业上可获得的致动器和光学安装座上的功能点之间提供通常为5:1量级的机械优点。 这样可以通过比例平方的相同比例和刚度来提高分辨率。

Abstract: A two-axis adjustable instrument mount having a fixed base plate, an intediate plate and an instrument mount plate. The intermediate plate is attached to the base plate by a three-point mount in the shape of an isosceles triangle. The two mounting points corresponding to the base of the triangle include hinge flex plates fixed to the base plate by means of rigid stand-offs. The flex plates are also fixed to the edge of the intermediate plate. The third mounting point corresponding to the apex of the triangle has a resilient block between the intermediate plate and the base plate. A threaded fastener passes through the resilient block and secures the intermediate plate to the base plate. Tightening or loosening the threaded fastener causes the resilient block to compress or expand thus allowing adjustment of the angle of the intermediate plate about the axis of the hinge plates with respect to the base plate. The instrument mount plate is similarly attached to the intermediate plate with the axis of the isosceles triangle formed by the three-point mount of the instrument mount plate being rotated 90 degrees from that of the intermediate plate.
