Abstract
Method and device for aligning a holder with respect to a carrier. The holder comprises at least one slot, whilst the carrier comprises a carrier plate and at least one bar. The bar is pivotally connected to the carrier plate with a first end, and to an element capable of sliding movement in said slot with an end remote from said first end. Once the holder has been positioned with respect to the carrier, the element is connected to the holder.

A method of positioning a holder with respect to a carrier, characterized in that the holder has at least one slot, while the carrier overlies said holder and is provided with a carrier plate and at least a bar, a first end of which is pivotally connected to the carrier plate and an end remote from the first end is pivotally connected to an element which is slidable in the slot, the element being connected to the holder after positioning the holder with respect to the carrier.
A method of positioning a holder with respect to a carrier, characterized in that the holder has at least one slot, while the carrier is provided with a carrier plate and at least a bar, a first end of which is pivotally connected to the carrier plate and an end remote from the first end is pivotally connected to an element which is slidable in the slot, the element being connected to the holder after positioning the holder with respect to the carrier, said method further characterized in that the carrier is provided with a least six bars situated in planes extending transversely to the carrier plate, while at least two bars extend away from each other in a first plane extending transversely to the carrier plate, at least two bars extend away from each other in a second plane extending transversely to the carrier plate, and at least two bars extend away from each other in a third plane situated parallel to the second plane and transversely to the first plane, the holder being fixed with respect to the carrier in six degrees of freedom after connection thereto.
A device comprising a holder and a carrier, characterized in that the holder has at least one slot, while the carrier overlies said holder and is provided with a carrier plate and at least a bar, a first end of which is pivotally connected to the carrier plate and an end remote from the first end is pivotally connected to an element which is slidable in the slot, the element being connectable to the holder.
