Adjustable fixture alignment
Mounting system, assemblies, and devices are shown and described. In one embodiment, a device to secure a fixture about an off-axis adjustment includes a lower knuckle having a plurality of sunken interior teeth, a distal attachment portion, and a threaded fastener aperture; an upper knuckle having a plurality of raised exterior teeth and a distal attachment portion; and a locking fastener to prevent rotation of the lower knuckle about the upper knuckle. The result is an assembly substantially rotational in a nonengaged position, and fixedly aligned in a coupled position.
1. A device to secure a fixture about an off-axis adjustment, said device comprising:
a. a lower knuckle having a flat mounting engagement surface, a plurality of sunken interior teeth aligned adjacent and perpendicular to said flat mounting engagement surface, a first distal portion having an axially extending opening, and a threaded fastener aperture aligned about said plurality of sunken interior teeth;
b. an upper knuckle having a flat alignment surface, and a plurality of raised exterior teeth adapted to engage with said plurality of sunken interior teeth and aligned adjacent and perpendicular to said flat alignment surface, and a distal attachment portion; and
c. a locking fastener having threads engaged along said threaded fastener aperture of said lower knuckle and a distal portion removably secured about said upper knuckle,
and wherein said locking fastener prevents rotation of said lower knuckle about said upper knuckle,
wherein said lower knuckle is rotational about said upper knuckle in a disassembled position, and
wherein said lower knuckle includes a cavity having a sidewall supporting said plurality of sunken interior teeth spaced substantially along a diameter of said cavity, and said axially extending opening protrudes from said cavity and traverses below said flat mounting engagement surface.
2. The device of claim 1 , wherein said lower knuckle is adapted to align at a plurality of adjustment points about said upper knuckle.
3. The device of claim 1 , wherein said lower knuckle is adapted to provide a plurality fine tune offset angles about said upper knuckle.
4. The device of claim 1 , wherein said upper knuckle includes an alignment ring extending from said alignment surface and supporting said plurality of raised exterior teeth.
5. The device of claim 1 , wherein said upper knuckle includes a shoulder substantially perpendicular about an alignment surface.
