Ball Joints, Outer Arms
The inner arm motion is transmitted to the platform through the outer arms, which are
connected between the inner arms and platform with precision ball joints. The outer arms are
carbon fiber epoxied assemblies with identical ball joint sockets at each end. A bearing insert
in each socket accepts the ball joint studs on the inner arms and platform, and allows for
approximately ± 60° of relative motion. No ball joint lubrication is required.
