Device for the mutual alignment of two bodies

摘要

For the mutual alignment of the bodies, one of these bodies is positioned in a fixed location, while the other is fastened onto an adjusting spring which can be pivoted out of an initial position. The adjusting spring consists of an outer frame (1) with which it is to be fastened to a carrier (3), and of an inner frame (8) which accepts the mounting (17) of the movably positioned body. The inner frame (8) is suspended on the outer frame by means of coil springs (11 to 14) acting alternately as tension and compression springs. It can be deflected delicately towards one or the other side within a predetermined adjustment range in all three planes by means of positioning devices (4, 5). The accuracy of the deflection movement lies in the order of magnitude of 1 mu . The device is particularly suitable for the opposite alignment of optical waveguides as well as of optical waveguides and optical components. <IMAGE>
