Patent ID: 6986636

Claim:
A device for positioning substantially planar objects comprising: a table which can be adjusted in the x-y direction in an adjustment plane, can be rotated about a first axis of rotation aligned perpendicular to said adjustment plane and is intended to receive a platform; said platform having a surface and a second axis of rotation, which is aligned perpendicular to said surface and an angle of tilt of which can be set relative to said adjustment plane; a fork-shaped frame which is mounted on said platform in such a way as to be rotatable about said second axis of rotation; a frame-shaped object holder for an object for carrying said object in an edge region of the object and surrounds a center through which passes a pivoting axis aligned parallel to said adjustment plane and intended for setting said angle of tilt of said second axis of rotation relative to said adjustment plane; said fork-shaped frame having fork ends with a third axis of rotation, which is aligned perpendicular to said second axis of rotation and about which said frame-shaped object holder is mounted in such a way as to be rotatable in said fork-shaped frame for the purpose of turning said object.
