Abstract
In the device the base and the swivel members consist of three spaced plates disposed one above the other. That is, a baseplate (1), an intermediate plate (3) and a supporting plate (5). The baseplate (1) is connected to the intermediate plate (3) disposed above it, via a first hinge (2) provided for within the area of one longitudinal side, and this intermediate plate (3), in turn, and within the area of the longitudinal side lying opposite the first hinge (2), is connected to the supporting plate (5) disposed thereabove, via a second hinge (4). Both the intermediate plate (3) and the supporting plate (5) are jointly capable of being swivelled about the swivel axis of the first hinge (2) and the supporting plate alone is capable of being swivelled about the swivel axis of the second hinge (4). The supporting plate (5) contains the object receptacle (8) whose center line is in agreement with the axis of the object. The positions of this center line and of the swivel axes are disposed in the corner points of a right-angled triangle, with the spacing between the swivel axes forming the hypothenuse of the triangle. The swivel axes of the hinges (2, 4) and the center line of the object…
