Title:
METHOD FOR ORIENTING A HEXAPOD TURRET
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002097920
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for displacing a moving plate (20) of a hexapod (100) whose legs (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) are provided with a length adjusting device from an orientation Vi which is defined by the azimuth-elevation coordinates thereof ( alpha i, beta i) towards an orientation Vi+1 which is defined by the azimuth-elevation coordinates thereof ( alpha i+1, beta i+1), characterized in that it comprises stages wherein: a law is defined which defines an offset distance d according to the orientation of the plate (20); the offset distance corresponding to the orientation Vi+1 is determined; the adjustment devices are controlled in order to modify the lengths L1 - L6 of the legs (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) in order to displace the moving plate (20) from orientation V1 to orientation Vi+1 and to offset it in relation to the normal on the fixed base (10) of the hexapode (100) via the centre OA of said base (10) on the azimuth plane of Vi+1 of the distance d.
