An alignment mount is provided for adjusting elevation and azimuth between
first and second axes for two respective devices attached thereto. The
axes are substantially parallel to an axial direction and substantially
perpendicular to lateral and vertical directions. These directions form a
pitch plane by said axial and vertical directions, a yaw plane by said
axial and lateral directions and a roll plane by said lateral and
vertical directions. The mount is detachably disposable to first and
second devices corresponding to the first and second axes. The mount
includes first and second platforms respectively attachable to the first
and second devices, an elevation block, an elevation screw, an elevation
cam, an azimuth screw and an azimuth cam. The first platform includes a
first slot that extends substantially in the yaw plane. The second
platform includes a first bore and a first channel extending in tandem
substantially in the axial direction. The elevation screw is rotatable
within the first bore in the roll plane. The elevation block is
insertable into the first channel and includes a second bore, a second
channel and a second slot. The second bore and the second channel extend
substantially in the axial direction. The azimuth screw is rotatable
within the second bore in the roll plane. The second slot extends
substantially in the pitch plane. The elevation cam translates within
said first channel to engage with the second slot to rotate one end of
the elevation block in the pitch plane in response to turning of the
elevation screw. The elevation block and first platform can be pinned
together at an opposite end to the first end. The first platform can
include a Picatinny rail.
