Modular Stanchion System

摘要

An apparatus for supporting a wing assembly at a wing assembly support height. Base sections are provided, each having a different predetermined height with respect to one another. A movable platform carries a base section, and a wing assembly support section rests on a selected base section and includes a wing assembly connector, which is movable in a first plane and a second plane generally perpendicular relative to the first plane. A differential height is defined between the wing assembly support height and the combined heights of the platform and the height of wing assembly connector, relative to the bottom of the wing assembly support section. At least one of the base sections is of a predetermined height approximating the differential height and is carried on the platform. The wing assembly support section is carried on such base section.

1. An apparatus for supporting a wing assembly at a wing assembly support height relative to a support surface, the apparatus comprising:
at least one movable platform having a first height; a plurality of base sections, each having a different predetermined height with respect to one another; at least one wing assembly support section; a wing assembly connector connected to the wing assembly support section; the wing assembly connector being configured to be movable in a first plane and a second plane generally perpendicular with respect to the first plane; the wing assembly support section defining a bottom and the wing assembly connector being at a second height from the bottom; the movable platform and the wing assembly connector being configured such that the aggregate of the first height and the second height is less than the wing assembly support height and such that the difference between the aggregate of the first height and the second height and the wing assembly support height defines a differential height; at least one of the multiple base sections being of a predetermined height approximating the differential height; the at least one of the multiple base sections being of a predetermined height approximating the differential height being carried on the movable platform; and the wing assembly support section being carried on the at least one of the multiple base sections being of a predetermined height approximating the differential height.
