Adjustable-Alignment Mount

Mounting systems that hold components securely in place even while adjusting positions or orientation play a pivotal role in various industries and applications, However, a robust, easily adjustable, and locking mechanism in mounting systems has been a long-standing development challenge. Many available mounting systems may offer adjustability or robustness, but finding a balance between these desirable features proves to be difficult. Additionally, the lack of user-friendly designs in these systems can make the repositioning of the supported components arduous and time-consuming, thereby creating room for innovation.

Technology Description

This ruggedized, adjustable mounting system is designed to selectively and securely lock a component in a desired orientation. This system leverages two core elements: kinematic and adjustable couplings. The kinematic couplings equip the system to support a fixture on a base. Meanwhile, the adjustable couplings manage the separation distance between contrastive parts of the fixture and the base, thus enabling the fixture to be pivoted around various axes of rotation to secure the desired orientation. What differentiates this mounting system is not just its adaptability and sturdiness but its intuitive, user-friendly design. The refusal to compromise on reliability while maintaining adjustability is a key differentiator in comparison to other mounting systems. With adjustable and kinematic couplings working in tandem, customized configurations for component orientations can be accommodated.
