A method and device are provided for positioning a mounted camera. The device includes a holding element that secures the mounted camera to the device, a wireless linkage at which remote attitude commands representing attitude changes of a remote driver are received, a local controller that interprets the remote attitude commands and generates local attitude commands that move the camera to mimic an orientation of the remote driver, and an attitude sensing element that senses a local attitude of the device. The attitude sensing element includes a gyro, an accelerometer, or a magnetometer, and jitter present in the remote attitude commands is removed and not passed on to the local attitude commands.

A stand having a pivoting mechanism is included in a set of electronic device. The pivoting mechanism includes a first pivoting element, a second pivoting element pivotally connected to the first pivoting element, a multi-positioning assembly connected to the first and the second pivoting element, and a restoring element having two ends that are respectively contacting the first and the second pivoting element. When the second pivoting element is, respectively, at a first and a second position, a first and a second angle are formed between the first and the second pivoting element. The first angle is less than the second angle. The multi-positioning assembly temporarily positions the first pivoting element with the second pivoting element. When the second pivoting element is, respectively, at the first and the second position, the restoring element has a first and a second deformation. The first deformation is less than the second deformation.

A self-balancing Two-Rotation Driving Mechanism (TRDM) uses parallelogram and has low weight, high load, high accuracy, quick response and good adaptation with multi equipment. A longitudinal rotation motor assembly is constrained fully with a base assembly and drives a longitudinal rotation assembly through connecting rod parallelogram. The lateral rotation motor assembly is assembled in the hub of a longitudinal rotation assembly and rotates an equipment clamping assembly in a lateral direction. Generally, the TRDM can drive equipment clamping assembly in two rotations, with longitudinal rotation in the range of ±45° and lateral rotation in range of ±20°. A rotation limitation is reached when limitation shafts touch the end of respective grooves.

A supporting stand is provided. The supporting stand includes an upright, a slidable clipping unit, a slider, an elastic element, and a bearing board. The upright includes a column body. The slidable clipping unit clamps the column body, and includes a structural sleeve element and a contact element. The contact element has a first contact body and a second contact body being rollable relative to the column body. The elastic element is connected to the column body and the structural sleeve element. The slider is configured to the structural sleeve element. The bearing board is disposed on the slider and bears the display. When an external force is applied, the structural sleeve element makes the slider move between a highest position and a lowest position, and when the external force is removed, the slider stops at any position between the highest position and the lowest position.

Disclosed is an electronic gimbal with camera and mounting configuration. The gimbal can include an inertial measurement unit which can sense the orientation of the camera and three electronic motors which can manipulate the orientation of the camera. The gimbal can be removably coupled to a variety of mount platforms, such as an aerial vehicle, a handheld grip, or a rotating platform. Moreover, a camera can be removably coupled to the gimbal and can be held in a removable camera frame. Also disclosed is a system for allowing the platform, to which the gimbal is mounted, to control settings of the camera or to trigger actions on the camera, such as taking a picture, or initiating the recording of a video. The gimbal can also provide a connection between the camera and the mount platform, such that the mount platform receives images and video content from the camera.

A gimbal having a split design, which can be used in an assembly for actuating an aerodynamic high lift device, is described. The gimbal enables a rotating load path when a force is transferred from the actuator to the high lift device via the gimbal. In particular, the split design can include two receivers which can be coupled to posts extending from a nut. The nut can be secured to a shaft which receives a force generated by the actuator. In one embodiment, the actuator can rotate the shaft to cause the gimbal to translate along the shaft. The split design provides a more compact form factor and is lighter in weight than traditional gimbal designs.

Adjustable bearing supports for single-axis trackers supported by truss foundations. A two-piece assembly joins a pair of adjacent truss legs to form a rigid foundation while providing a movable support for a tracker bearing housing assembly or other structure. The movable support may slide in-plane, or alternatively, enable the bearing housing assembly to slide and rotate with respect to the truss cap structure joining the adjacent truss legs.

The invention is a monitor arm assembly including a rotation limiter that includes movable tabs to set the rotation limits of the arms with respect to each other or other assemblies. The rotation limiter may include exterior ring activators and outer visual references for the set limitations. The monitor arm assembly also includes a plurality of slide tracks to allow the monitor attached the arm to take a plurality of lateral positions. The assembly may further include a connector to join adjacent slide tracks.
