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.

The roll cradle is movably secured to the first mounting member for rotation about a roll axis perpendicular to the pan axis. The tilt body is movably mounted to the roll cradle for rotation about a tilt axis perpendicular to both the pan axis and the roll axis. The second mounting member is connected to the tilt body for attaching a camera to the tilt body.

An electronic device includes a first body, a second body, a connection device, and a bearing mechanism. The first body includes a support plane. The connection device is arranged at the support plane and is configured to connect the first body and the second body. The bearing mechanism is arranged at the first body. The connection device includes a plurality of connection members between the first body and the second body, and the second body rotates on the support plane through movements and rotations of the connection members in a plurality of slideways located on the support plane. The bearing mechanism is connected with the connection members and drives the connection members to move on the support plane to bear gravity of the second body.

A display device is disclosed. The display device includes a display panel, a back cover covering a rear surface of the display panel, a bracket coupled to a rear surface of the back cover, and a support removably coupled to the bracket, wherein the bracket includes a first plate, a second plate facing the first plate, and a link connecting the first plate to the second plate, wherein the second plate includes therein a slot, which is formed toward an inside from a lower side of the second plate and in which the support is movably received, wherein the link includes a lower link, and an upper link disposed above the lower link, and wherein each of the lower link and the upper link extends in a direction intersecting the first plate and the second plate, and is pivotably coupled both to the first plate and to the second plate.

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 mounting assembly (10) for an electronic device (11) is disclosed. The mounting assembly (10) comprises an attachment part (12), a base (16), and an arm (14). The attachment part (12) is coupled to the arm (14) and the arm (14) is coupled to the base (16) such that the arm (14) is lockingly rotatable relative the base (16) about a rotational axis (18). The arm (14) comprises a housing and a locking member (20) being provided with a locking protrusion (30). The locking member (20) is coupled to the housing such that the locking protrusion (30) is radially displaceable in relation to the rotational axis (18). The base (16) is provided with a set of radially extending locking grooves (22). The locking protrusion (30) is received by one locking groove (22a) in response to a displacement of the locking member (20), whereby the arm (16) is rotationally locked.

A horizontal-posture maintaining apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes a barrel, a cover unit provided on a side surface of the barrel, a first driver provided in the cover unit, for rotating the barrel in a first direction (around an X axis) to keep the barrel in horizontal posture, a second driver provided in the cover unit, for rotating the cover unit in a second direction (around a Y axis) to keep the barrel in the horizontal posture, and a controller for controlling rotation of the first and second drivers.

A compensated actuator, in various embodiments, comprises a base and an electric actuator and a fluid actuator interconnected to cooperatively allow for movement of an upper deck frame to which one or more compensated actuators are connected with or without using a pivoting connector. When so connected, a predetermined set of compensated actuators are connected to the upper deck frame and a platform intermediate the upper deck frame and the platform in a predetermined pattern and linear forces from the electric actuator and fluid actuator combined to impart rotation to an output attachment point.
