ROTARY-CAROUSEL STAND Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC B60S5/00 

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: rotary-carousel stand includes a carousel installed with possibility of being rotated in the axis, carousel position changing device, automatic coupling clamping device, stand base in the form of a post with screw-type supports, and braking mechanism. Carousel position changing device is made in the form of a carrier with levers, and screw mechanism. Carousel includes a hub with brackets, counter-weights and cantilevers, each of which is attached to the appropriate bracket and automatic coupling clamping device. Automatic coupling housing is installed in the automatic coupling clamping device so that all the controlled and repairable surfaces remain free. Cantilevers and automatic coupling clamping devices are installed so that they can be turned, thus providing the possibility of rotation of the installed automatic coupling housing relative to two mutually perpendicular axes. Centre of mass of the installed automatic coupling is located at the crossing point of the above axes.

EFFECT: providing easy movement of automatic coupling between assembly/disassembly and control positions, easy access to all the controlled and replaceable surfaces of automatic coupling, as well as minimising the forces required for its rotation.
