ABSTRACT:
An articulate joint for use in a laser processing machine includes first and second hollow arms that are interconnected by a hinge so that they are freely bendble in a single plane; a mirror; and a mirror mounting mechanism for mounting the mirror in the hinge so that the mirror is angularly movable in response to relative angular movement between the two arms through an angle which is one-half of an angle of the relative angular movement between the arms, so that a laser beam coming from the first arm can be transmitted into the second arm.
