Abstract:
1. A device for adjusting an optical element or an X-ray analysis optical element, the device comprising: a holding device; a first adjusting ring having a first inner surface defining a first eccentric opening, said first ring mounted in said holding device for rotation relative thereto; a first plunger in sliding cooperation with said first inner surface at a first region thereof and cooperating with the optical element, wherein said holding device, said first adjusting ring, and said first plunger are disposed, structured and dimensioned such that rotation of said first adjusting ring relative to said holding device produces translation of said first plunger to displace the optical element in a direction substantially transverse to said first region; a second adjusting ring having a second inner surface defining a second eccentric opening, said second ring mounted in said holding device for rotation relative thereto; and a second plunger in sliding cooperation with said second inner surface at a second region thereof and cooperating with the optical element, wherein said holding device, said second adjusting ring, and said second plunger are disposed, structured and dimensioned such that rotation of said second adjusting ring relative to said holding device produces translation of said second plunger to displace the optical element in a direction substantially transverse to said second region.
