ABSTRACT:
Slider devices having a misalignment tolerance may include a slider frame and two or more approximately parallel shafts that are configured to elastically shift within fixed shaft supports. Each shaft is slideably disposed within one or more fixed shaft support, so that the slider frame may extend or retract along an axis approximately parallel to the long axis of the shafts. In some versions, the shafts are elastically mounted to the slider frame. Also described are methods of sliding a slider having misalignment tolerance by moving the slider device to extend or retract a slider frame comprising two or more approximately parallel shafts that are configured to elastically shift within fixed shaft supports.
