A universally movable, demountable mirror comprising; a. a C-clamp 1. said C-clamp having two sockets formed therein with the axes thereof being parallel, which sockets are positioned in opposed relation on said C-clamp to receive a stub shaft therein, 2. said C-clamp having an opening formed therein which opening passes transversely therethrough at a right angle to the axes of said sockets, which opening is adapted to receive a stub shaft in either end thereof, 3. an outwardly extending portion of said C-clamp being screw threaded, 4. a screw threadably engaging said screw threaded portion of said C-clamp, 5. A thumb wheel on an end of said screw, 6. said thumb wheel having a socket formed therein to receive a stub shaft, 7. an opposing portion of said C-clamp, opposite the end of said screw remote from said thumb wheel forms a clamping base portion. b. a bearing member forming a first hingeable member, 1. a stub shaft on said bearing member of said first hingeable member, which stub shaft is of a size to be received in the sockets of said C-clamp and the socket of said thumb wheel in close fitting relation, c. a first arm, 1. side plates on an end of said first arm and being engageable with said bearing member in complementary friction relation, d. screw and lock means positioned on said side plates to bindingly engage said side plates with said bearing member to retain said first arm in adjusted relation with respect to said bearing member, e. a second arm having a similar bearing member thereon and similar side plates, 1. said first arm and said second arm lying in the same plane, f. a mirror universally mounted on said second arm remote from said stub shaft, for movement to a selected position.

A universally movable, demountable mirror comprising; a. a C-clamp 1. said C-clamp having two sockets formed therein with the axes thereof being parallel, which sockets are positioned in opposed relation on said C-clamp to receive a stub shaft therein, 2. said C-clamp having an opening formed therein which opening passes transversely therethrough at a right angle to the axes of said sockets, which opening is adapted to receive a stub shaft in either end thereof, 3. an outwardly extending portion of said C-clamp being screw threaded, 4. a screw threadably engaging said screw threaded portion of said C-clamp, 5. A thumb wheel on an end of said screw, 6. said thumb wheel having a socket formed therein to receive a stub shaft, 7. an opposing portion of said C-clamp, opposite the end of said screw remote from said thumb wheel forms a clamping base portion. b. a bearing member forming a first hingeable member, 1. a stub shaft on said bearing member of said first hingeable member, which stub shaft is of a size to be received in the sockets of said C-clamp and the socket of said thumb wheel in close fitting relation, c. a first arm, 1. side plates on an end of said first arm and being engageable with said bearing member in complementary friction relation, d. screw and lock means positioned on said side plates to bindingly engage said side plates with said bearing member to retain said first arm in adjusted relation with respect to said bearing member, e. a second arm having a similar bearing member thereon and similar side plates, 1. said first arm and said second arm lying in the same plane, f. a mirror universally mounted on said second arm remote from said stub shaft, for movement to a selected position.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
37 words
A universally movable, demountable mirror as defined in claim 1; wherein a. each hinge formed by each said bearing and said complementary side plates being adapted to hinge through at least 180 degrees in the same plane.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
40 words
A universally movable, demountable mirror as defined in claim 1; wherein a. each said socket formed in said C-clamp being at a right angle to the opening formed in said C-clamp and to the socket formed in the thumb wheel.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
51 words
A universally movable, demountable mirror as defined in claim 1; wherein a. said stub shaft on said bearing member is adapted to rotate 360°, when fitted in each of the sockets and to rotate 360° when fitted in each end of said opening passing transversely through the body of said C-clamp.
