Abstract
A precision scan sphere designed for use in conjunction with scanner technology, and includes a full or partial sphere, having a laser detecting surface, and which can be mounted by a shank into a holder, or held by a steel insert that may be applied to a sphere mount, during its application and usage. Because of the reduction and size of the insert, as applied to the bottom of the scan sphere, as an example, a 2.375 inch diameter sphere can mount directly to a 1.5 inch sphere mount, during its application and usage.
Claims7
A precision scan sphere designed to be used in conjunction with scanner technology, and including a least a partial sphere, said partial sphere having a flattened bottom, a shank held on the center line extending from the flattened bottom of the scan sphere, and capable of being mounted into a bore hole upon a mounting surface, during its application when used in conjunction with laser scanners.
A precision scan sphere designed to be used in conjunction with scanner technology, and including at least a partial sphere, the lower partial sphere having an insert applied to its bottom, the insert in whole or in part capable of mounting onto a sphere mount magnetically, during its application when used in conjunction with laser scanners.
