Modular tooling apparatus having serrated teeth for orbital and linear adjustment

A modular tooling apparatus, comprising:

• a first coupler portion having a first contoured surface;
• a second coupler portion having a second contoured surface, wherein the first coupler portion and the second coupler portion are rotationally adjustable with respect to one another;
• a locking member having a bore that extends through the locking member, a third contoured surface that is arranged around and outward from a first portion of the bore, a widened portion of the bore that is located behind the third contoured surface and has a larger diameter than the third contoured surface, and a fourth contoured surface that is arranged around and outward from the third contoured surface, wherein the locking member is moveable to a locked position with respect to the first coupler portion and the second coupler portion in which the third contoured surface of the locking member engages the first contoured surface of the first coupler portion and the fourth contoured surface of the locking member engages the second contoured surface of the second coupler portion to restrain the first coupler portion from rotating with respect to the second coupler portion;
• and
• a friction member that engages the first coupler portion and the second coupler portion to resist rotation of the first coupler portion with respect to the second coupler portion when the locking member is not in the locked position.

• a second coupler portion having a second contoured surface;
• and
• a locking member having a bore that extends through the locking member, a third contoured surface that is arranged around and outward from a first portion of the bore, and a fourth contoured surface that is arranged around and outward from the third contoured surface, wherein the locking member is moveable between a locked position, where the first coupler portion is restrained from rotating with respect to the second coupler portion, and an unlocked position where the first coupler portion and the second coupler portion are rotationally adjustable with respect to one another,
• wherein the locked position comprises the third contoured surface of the locking member engaging the first contoured surface of the first coupler portion, and the fourth contoured surface of the locking member engaging the second contoured surface of the second coupler portion.
