Es sind bereits Messvorrichtungen zum Erfassen von dreidimensionalen Ko ordinaten (z. B. DE-GM 94 21 789) bekannt, bei denen die Orientierung eines Objektes im Raum durch die Lage von drei Punkten des Objektes festgelegt werden kann. Ein beweglicher Arm ist mit einem Ende auf einer Grundplatte montiert und trägt an seinem freien Ende eine Sondenspitze. Dieser Arm um fasst vorzugsweise sechs Gelenke, so dass die Sondenspitze innerhalb eines ausgewählten Volumens beweglich ist. Jedem dieser Drehgelenke ist ein Po tentiometer zugeordnet. Die Potentiometer werden über Kabel unmittelbar an den Eingang eines Rechners oder unter Zwischenschaltung eines Messwert umwandlers angeschlossen, die Widerstandswerte in digitale Größen umge wandelt und die Positionskoordinaten der Sondenspitzen errechnet. Darüber hinaus ist jedes dieser Gelenke mit einer Lagerung versehen, die nicht nur die Spielfreiheit des Gelenkes gewährleistet, die des weiteren dem Bediener auch eine leichte Handhabung des Gerätes ermöglichen soll. Nachteilig ist jedoch, dass der Bediener nicht nur ein Teil des Eigengewichtes des Höhenmess- und Anreißgerätes halten muss, sondern dass bei Unterbrechung des Mess- und Anreißvorganges die Sondenspitze am Gerät oder einer sonstigen Vorrichtung abgelegt werden muss.There are already measuring devices for detecting three-dimensional Ko ordinates (e.g. DE-GM 94 21 789) are known, in which the orientation of a Object in space determined by the position of three points of the object can be. One end of a movable arm is on a base plate mounts and carries a probe tip at its free end. That arm around preferably holds six joints so that the probe tip is within one selected volume is movable. Each of these swivel joints is a bum assigned to the tentiometer. The potentiometers are connected directly via cables the receipt of a computer or with the interposition of a measured value converter connected, the resistance values converted into digital quantities converts and calculates the position coordinates of the probe tips. About that In addition, each of these joints is provided with a bearing, which is not only the Backlash of the joint ensures that the operator also should allow easy handling of the device. However, the disadvantage is that the operator not only part of the weight of the height measuring and Scriber must hold, but that when the measurement and Scribing the probe tip on the device or other device must be filed.
Es sind Höhenmess- und Anreißgeräte bekannt (DE 199 03 445 A1), bei denen mindestens eines der Drehgelenke mit einer Arretiervorrichtung versehen ist. Es lässt sich damit das entsprechende Drehgelenk in der momentan einge nommenen Position festsetzen.Height measuring and marking devices are known (DE 199 03 445 A1), in which at least one of the swivel joints is provided with a locking device. It can be used to turn the corresponding hinge on at the moment position.
Weiter sind noch Messeinrichtungen (z. B. DE 198 43 052 A1) bekannt, wobei zum Arretieren der Gelenkarme in einer vorbestimmten Stellung eine pneuma tische Betätigung wirksam wird.

Hierbei ist sichergestellt, dass jede Feststellvorrichtung durch Auslösen der Fernbedienung gleichzeitig angesteuert wird.According to a favorable embodiment, it is provided that at least one Locking device can be controlled by a remote control. It is advantageous here that by using a remote control z. B. each finding device of a single swivel joint can be controlled individually or it can the locking device also switches all locking devices of the height measuring and marking device. This ensures that each locking device by triggering the remote control at the same time is controlled.
Nach einem wesentlichen Merkmal ist vorgesehen, dass alle Drehgelenke mit einer Feststellvorrichtung versehen sind.According to an essential feature, it is provided that all swivel joints have a locking device are provided.
Alternativ wird die Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, dass der Bremskolben elektrisch über einen Stellmotor oder über einen Magneten ansteuerbar ist.Alternatively, the object is achieved in that the brake piston is electrical can be controlled via an actuator or a magnet.
Um zu gewährleisten, dass bei Stromausfall die Drehgelenke blockiert sind, ist vorgesehen, dass der Bremskolben über eine Feder arretiert und elektrisch entriegelt wird. Vorteilhaft ist hierbei, dass ein Druckfeder den Bremskolben auf die Bremsscheibe oder einen Bremsbacken presst, während zur Entriegelung der Klemmvorrichtung der entsprechende Bremskolben elektrisch, gegen die Federkraft, beaufschlagt wird. Bei einer derartigen Ausbildung lassen sich in günstiger Weise Elektromagneten einsetzen, wobei bei Strombeaufschlagung des Elektromagneten das Drehgelenk frei beweglich ist, während beim Ab schalten des Stromes für den Elektromagneten oder bei einem plötzlichen Stromausfall die entsprechende Druckfeder den Bremskolben beaufschlagt und dass Drehgelenk entsprechend arretiert.To ensure that the swivel joints are blocked in the event of a power failure provided that the brake piston is locked by a spring and electrically is unlocked. The advantage here is that a compression spring on the brake piston presses the brake disc or a brake shoe while unlocking the clamping device the corresponding brake piston electrically against the Spring force is applied. With such training can be in use electromagnets favorably, with current being applied of the electromagnet the swivel is freely movable, while when Ab switching the current for the electromagnet or in the event of a sudden Power failure the corresponding compression spring acts on the brake piston and that the swivel is locked accordingly.
