ANTENNA SWIVEL AND BEARING DEVICE Russian patent published in 1994 - IPC

FIELD: radio engineering. SUBSTANCE: polar axle 8 is pivotally mounted on post 1. The polar axle is connected with arc-shaped rod 5 of angle-of-elevation setting mechanism. Rod 5 is passed through post 1. Guiding arc-shaped rod of orbital setting mechanism is fixed on frame 16. The arc-shaped rods are interconnected by means of locking member allowing them to move or be fixed relative to one another. Elevation correction mechanism mounted pivotally at the ends of the polar axle is in the form of bearing- and-swivel articulated joints that are engageable with arc-shaped rods mounted concentrically to the angle-of- elevation setting mechanism rod and secured on reflector frame. Alternatives of filling the locking mechanism are presented. EFFECT: extended operating capabilities. 7 cl, 3 dwg
