  • Patent number: 7861426
    Abstract: An optomechanical leveling device (1) has an external housing (2) with a bottom surface (4), a carrier frame (6) located inside the external housing (2) and fastened in an elastically damped manner by means of damping elements (5) elastically preloaded along respective tensioning axes (S) and an optics carrier (7) suspended at the carrier frame (6) such that it can be oriented by the gravitational field (G).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 9, 2008
    Date of Patent: January 4, 2011
    Assignee: Hilti Aktiengesellschaft
    Inventors: Detlef Juesten, Roman Steffen, Peter Bruggmueller, Petra Eyrich
  • Patent number: 7593172
    Abstract: An optical assembly has an optics carrier (2) which is adjustable with respect to an axis (A) and to which at least two optical elements are fixedly connected, with the optics carrier (2) including at least two partial carriers (5a, 5b), each of which secures an optical element, and with the two partial carriers (5a, 5b) being connected to one another by at least three axially elongate, flexible connection members (6) which are spaced apart in a plane and secured by frictional engagement in corresponding associated connection openings (8) so as to be displaceable axially.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7500317
    Abstract: A self-leveling laser emitter (1) has a portable housing (2) in which a beam unit (5) is mounted so as to be swivelable in two dimensions in a self-leveling manner at a bearing point (4) arranged in the area of one third to two thirds of the height (H) of the housing exclusively by the downwardly directed gravitational force (G), which beam unit (5) emits two axis beams (7) in axial directions, including a plumb beam (6), and at least one first beam source is arranged in the beam unit (5) above the bearing point (4) and at least one second beam source is arranged below the bearing point (4).
