  • Puppet arm connection and movement system
    Patent number: 6663312
    Abstract: A thin, firm material base (10) with a slotted tube (20) and attached clip (40) assembly inserted through the base and secured to the base (10) with bolt retainers (30). The bolt retainers (30) keep the tube (20) secure within the base (10). The base (10) is encased in a split cylindrical foam material to provide for support, shape and proper alignment when used in an internal application such as a puppet wrist. In addition a rod with a ground end can be temporarily inserted into the tube (20) and attached clip (40) assembly, providing a temporary, yet secure connection while allowing for rotational movement of the rod (60) within the tube (20). The temporarily secure connection is a result of the friction of the inserted rod (60) coming into contact with the straight side of the clip (40) within the interior diameter of the tube (20).
