ABSTRACT:
An adjustable mount for optical components is disclosed which permits a component held by the mount to be adjusted with six degrees of freedom. The mount includes means for locking the components of the mount to prevent vibration from affecting the adjustment of the mount while still permitting the mount to be assembled without applying excessive pressure to the mount's components, thereby permitting the position of an optical component held by the mount to be easily changed. When used to support an optical component, the mount permits the focus, tip and tilt, radial translation and rotation of the optical component relative to the brackets supporting the component to be changed without the need to cement the components of the mount into place to prevent vibration from affecting the adjustment of the components of the mount.
