| Abstract: |
A three-dimensional positioning apparatus comprising a base (180), a first element (182) and a second element (186) is constructed in the form of a sawhorse bracket. The first element (180) is pivotable about a first pivot axis (184) only, and the second element (186) is pivotable about two axes, one substantially parallel to and one substantially perpendicular to the first pivot axis (184). The first element is positioned by a first axially elongatable cylinder (188), lying at an angle to a first plane extending through the first element and through the first pivot axis. The second element is positioned by a pair of second axially elongatable cylinders (194), arranged in a plane generally parallel to the first plane, and angled with respect to each other and converging towards each other from the base to the second element.

I claim:
1. Positioning apparatus comprising:
- a base,
- a non-elongatable first element pivotably mounted onto said base for pivotable positioning relative thereto about a first pivot axis only;
- a second element pivotably mounted onto said first element for pivotable positioning relative thereto about two pivot axes one substantially parallel to and one substantially perpendicular to said first pivot axis;
- first axially elongatable means mounted pivotably onto said base and pivotably connected to one of said first and second pivotably elements for selectable positioning of said first element about said first pivot axis said first axially elongatable means lying at an angle to a first plane extending through said first element and through said first pivot axis; and
- second axially elongatable means mounted pivotably onto said base and said second element at a distance from its pivoting connection with said first element for selectable positioning of said second element with respect to said pivot axis substantially perpendicular to said first pivot axis said second axially elongatable means comprising two axially elongatable elements arranged in a plane generally parallel to said first plane and having elongation axes which are angled with respect to each other and converging towards each other from said base to said second element.
