Abstract
A support in the form of a high directional having a configurable number of telescoping legs is disclosed. The support provides a head and a plurality of telescoping legs, the head having a plurality of head units and each head unit having at least one associated leg depending therefrom. Each head unit being adapted to be coupled to at least two other head units.
Claims28
A configurable high directional support comprising:
- a plurality of telescoping legs wherein the top of each telescoping leg is provided with an angled abutment edge;
- a head comprising a plurality of head units each having on opposite sides thereof first and second side connectors, wherein each head unit is pivotally attached to a respective one of the plurality of telescoping legs, wherein the telescoping legs are located in a respective head unit channel, and wherein each of the head units is adapted to be coupled to two other head units via the first and second side connectors to form a chain of head units, and wherein
- each head unit is releasably coupled with at least one other adjacent head unit.
A kit for a high directional support having a head and a plurality of telescoping legs, comprising:
- a plurality of head units each having on opposite sides thereof first and second side connectors;
- a plurality of telescoping legs each having an angular abutment edge provided at the top thereof;
- each head unit being pivotally attachable to a respective one of the plurality of
- telescoping legs wherein the telescoping legs are located in a respective head unit channel;
- and
- each head unit being pivotally couplable to two other head units only via the first and second side connectors to form a chain of head units.
A configurable high directional support comprising:
- a plurality of head units;
- a plurality of telescoping legs, wherein each telescoping leg is pivotally attachable to one of the head units, wherein the telescoping legs are located in a respective head unit channel, and wherein the top of each telescoping leg is provided with an angled abutment edge;
- each head unit further comprises a first side connector and a second side connector, wherein each of the head units is adapted to be coupled to two other head units only via the first and second side connectors to form a chain of head units, wherein the first side connector is adapted to pivotally connect to a second side connector of one of the head units and the second side connector is adapted to pivotally connect to a first side connector of another one of the head units;
- and
- each head unit further comprises a first head unit element and a second head unit element which are mutually couplable and decoupable at a central portion.
A configurable high directional support comprising:
- a plurality of telescoping legs wherein the top of each telescoping leg is provided with an angled abutment edge;
- a head comprising a plurality of head units each having on opposite sides thereof first and second side connectors, wherein each head unit is pivotally attached to a respective one of the plurality of telescoping legs, wherein the telescoping legs are located in a respective head unit channel, and wherein each of the head units is adapted to be coupled to two other head units via the first and second side connectors with a pin for coupling the head units via the first and second side connectors to form a chain of head units, and wherein
- each head unit is releasably coupled with at least one other adjacent head unit.
