Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
190 words
A photography booth comprising: a) a plurality of vertical frame members, each having a first end attached to an approximately circular or polygonal base member and a second end; b) a second approximately circular or polygonal member attached to each said second end to define a structural frame; c) said vertical frame members or said second approximately circular or polygonal member having means for mounting a resilient sheet of material so as to form said resilient sheet of material into a cylindrical segment; d) said vertical frame members having means for rotatably mounting a circular, planar member above said approximately circular or polygonal base member; e) a camera positioning arm pivotably attached to said structural frame wherein said arm comprising: 1) a first arm member or members, each having a first end pivotably attached to said structural frame and a second end; 2) a second arm member having a first end pivotably attached to said second end of each said first arm member or members and said second arm member having a second end; 3) a camera mounting means adjustably attached to said second end of said second arm member.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
190 words
A photography booth comprising: a) a plurality of vertical frame members, each having a first end attached to an approximately circular or polygonal base member and a second end; b) a second approximately circular or polygonal member attached to each said second end to define a structural frame; c) said vertical frame members or said second approximately circular or polygonal member having means for mounting a resilient sheet of material so as to form said resilient sheet of material into a cylindrical segment; d) said vertical frame members having means for rotatably mounting a circular, planar member above said approximately circular or polygonal base member; e) a camera positioning arm pivotably attached to said structural frame wherein said arm comprising: 1) a first arm member or members, each having a first end pivotably attached to said structural frame and a second end; 2) a second arm member having a first end pivotably attached to said second end of each said first arm member or members and said second arm member having a second end; 3) a camera mounting means adjustably attached to said second end of said second arm member.
