Universal pan and tilt mounting system

摘要

A universal mounting system for a device that employs a directional element in the operation of that device (e.g., scanning, tracking, aiming, or firing) is disclosed. The system is designed to perform pan and tilt operations associated with an attached device in a single movement without the need for operator adjustments. The design allows for mounting the system via a specific method or a commonly utilized method. Additional components may include an elevation adjustment to the system and a friction adjustment to the means used for the pan and tilt operations.
