ABSTRACT:
A two-dimensional flexure gimbal-type coupling in which rectangular flexure members allow limited rotation about two mutually perpendicular intersecting axes. The coupling utilizes two pairs of flexure members arranged in two mutually perpendicular planes when unflexed, the planes intersecting along an axis lying between the flexure members of both pairs. Each pair of flexures are attached to respective spaced frame members along one edge. A coupling member is attached to the opposite edges of all the flexure members in such a manner that the edges of one pair of flexure members where attached to a frame member lie in a common plane with the edges of the other pair of flexure members where attached to the coupling member.
