A gantry-type positioning device includes a planar base parallel to first and second directions. Two first linear axes are arranged in the first direction, each having a first linear drive. A frame held by the first linear axes is movable in the first direction, and comprises two transverse and two longitudinal beams. The transverse beams carry second linear axes with second linear drives parallel to the second direction, so that a movable element arranged between the transverse beams is movably held by the second linear actuators. The frame is flexibly constructed such that the movable element is rotatable about a third direction which is perpendicular to the first and second directions. With respect to the third direction, the movable element is guidable by a guide surface of only one of the transverse beams serving as a guide beam for the movable element.

A desk includes a work surface, a casing, a carriage, a stand, and a plurality of actuators. The actuators are operable to selectively adjust a vertical position of the work surface, the stand between at least a stored position and a deployed position, and a lateral position of the carriage. The casing is mounted to the work surface and defines an interior volume sized for receipt of a display. The carriage is mounted to the stand and is configured for supporting the display. A controller is in operative communication with the actuators and is configured for receiving data corresponding to a desk configuration over a wireless network and activating one or more of the actuators to correspond to the desk configuration.

The invention is directed at a method of positioning a carrier on a flat surface using an positioning member, wherein the carrier comprises an upper part and a base which are connected to each other such as to be arranged remote from each other, wherein the positioning member is arranged between the base and the upper part such that the base is located at an opposite side of the positioning member with respect to the upper part of the carrier, the upper part resting on the positioning member prior to placing of the carrier onto the flat surface, wherein the upper part comprises three engagement elements, and wherein the positioning member comprises a support surface for receiving the three engagement elements of the upper part, said support surface including a plurality of sockets forming a kinematic mount for said three engagement elements, wherein the base comprises three landing elements, each landing element being associated with a respective one of the three engagement elements, and the method comprising the steps of: operating the positioning member for moving the carrier relative to the flat surface in a direction parallel thereto such as to position the carrier above a landing position; performing an action of placing the carrier on the flat surface at the landing position, said action of placing comprising: moving the base towards the flat surface until at least one of said landing elements is in contact with the flat surface and an associated engagement element of said engagement elements is released from the kinematic mount; continue said moving of the base relative to the flat surface until all landing elements are in contact with the flat surface; and continue said action of placing the carrier until all engagement elements are released from the kinematic mount.

Provided are a method and system for producing photographic images of an object about multiple axes, the method comprising: suspending the object; rotating the object around a first axis allowing multiple photographic images of the object to be captured about the first axis by an imaging device; and rotating the imaging device about the object around a second axis allowing multiple photographic images of the object to be captured about the second axis by the imaging device.

A holder includes a plate, a bracket, a connector, an angle-retaining element, a fastener and a carrier. The plate is connected to an external object. The bracket includes two lugs extending from a positioning portion. The positioning portion is rotationally connected to the plate. The first lug extends from the positioning portion and includes a smaller aperture in communication with a larger aperture. The second lug extends from the positioning portion and includes a countersink hole. The connector includes an axle extending along a vertical axis from the bearing. The bearing is located between the lugs and formed with a tapered bore along a horizontal axis. The angle-retaining element includes an enlarged head inserted in the larger aperture and a tapered portion inserted in the tapered bore. The fastener includes is inserted in the angle-retaining element, the lugs and the bearing. The carrier includes a bearing for receiving the axle.

This specification relates to the fields of automobile maintenance and device calibration technologies and discloses a position adjustment apparatus and an automobile calibration device. The position adjustment apparatus includes a slide member, a supporting member and an adjustment member. The supporting member is movably mounted at the slide member. One of the slide member and the supporting member includes a rack. The adjustment member includes a gear. The gear is meshed with the rack. When rotating, the gear can drive the rack to move in a preset direction, to enable the supporting member to move in the preset direction with respect to the slide member. By means of the gear engagement between the gear and the rack, the supporting member can move stably and precisely in the preset direction with respect to the slide member, so that the automobile calibration device and an automobile to be calibrated can be aligned conveniently and precisely.

A mounting system includes a double-beam support structure comprising two parallel, horizontal bars spaced apart vertically, and a bracket designed to hang from the double support bars while resisting rotation about the support bars. The bracket is slidably positionable along the support bars and may further include a releasable clamp jaw for clamping one of the support bars to selectively fix the position of the bracket along the support bars. The bracket may support a mounting assembly for an electronic visual display, an extension boom assembly, or another item.

An accessory mounting track provides quick and easy removable attachment and positioning of various devices. The method of attachment of devices to the accessory mounting track may be compatible with the attachment of these devices to other mounting systems, allowing the accessory mounting track to be used interchangeably with those systems.

A mounting system capable of mounting objects to support structures is disclosed. The mounting system includes a wall mount including a display bracket configured to hold the object, a fixed support bracket couplable to a vertical support structure, and a linkage assembly. The linkage assembly has a low-profile stowed configuration in which the object is held in a raised position close to the support structure. The linkage assembly moves to another configuration to move the object. The object can be held in a lowered position. A biasing mechanism can facilitate convenient movement of the object.
