DEVICE FOR CONTROL OF MUTUAL ORIENTATION AND MUTUAL POSITION OF MEASUREMENT DEVICES Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC G01C21/12 

FIELD: test and measurement equipment.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the field of control and measuring equipment and technology and can be used in devices, where it is important to know the relative position and orientation of several devices, the invention can be applied to transport, space and laboratory equipment. Device for monitoring the mutual orientation and mutual position of the measuring devices comprises a lower plate, side platforms made with the possibility of placing measuring instruments on them, displacement sensors and a data processing unit connected to displacement sensors. Lower plate and side platforms are rigidly fixed by means of ball bearings in such a way that their planes form a pyramidal structure, and the side platforms themselves are connected to each other at the apex of the pyramid formed by means of one ball bearing. Each side platform is connected to three ball bearings by means of three fasteners, respectively. In this case, the fastening elements are made in the form of a screw comprising a head and a rod; in each ball bearing a blind radial threaded hole is provided for accommodating a corresponding screw rod. Connect the third ball bearing in the side platform, a composite through hole of variable diameter is designed to accommodate the third screw, the through hole includes a cylindrical portion for accommodating the screw shaft and a portion for accommodating the head of the fixing screw. Between the lateral platform and the third ball bearing there is a conical washer through which the screw shaft passes and which contacts its inner conical surface with the spherical surface of this ball bearing.

EFFECT: increase the accuracy of joint measurements of devices installed on the basis of the device.
