Abstract

See full text

Two substantially planar discs sandwich pivoting joint elements therebetween. Slides, also between the discs, can move independently in a wide range of angular positions about the pivoting axis of the joint, and be fixed in any selected positions. Slides comprise two elements drawn together radially to clamp onto circumferential rims provided on the discs. Joint bending in each direction is independently controlled. Internal opposed teeth on the disc rims and slides engage when the slides are positioned.
