FIXTURE TO MOUNT ASSEMBLY UNITS AT ARTICLE Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC B64G1/22 

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to fixtures designed to mount the equipment at spacecraft with precise angular and linear adjustment of units at design tests. Device to mount assembly units (1) at article (9) comprises triangular (in cross-section) a structural prism (2). Assembly units (1) are fitted in prism (2) with the help of bolt (3) and locked an sealed by wire (4) and seal (5) at four points for every unit. Prism (2) is mounted with the help of bolts (7, 8) at adjustable base (6). Device design allows linear adjustment of the position of units (1) in lengthwise axis and perpendicular to axis: ΔZ, ΔY (with allowance Δ1 - for ranges ΔZ and Δ2 - for clearance ΔY) Position of said units can be adjusted in small range of angles α°± n' relative to article (9). Assembly units (1) can be independently assembled at structural prism (2). If required, prism (2) with assembly units can be removed from base (6) with no loss in precision of angular position of units (1).

EFFECT: linear adjustment of assembly units in two mutually perpendicular directions, high-precision angular adjustment.
