摘要： Provided is an apparatus capable of transporting a rotor from a first location to a second location, including: a holding device for engaging with a portion of the rotor at the first location so as to hold the rotor relative to the apparatus; a position determination device for determining the position of at least one component part of the rotor relative to another component part of the rotor or another body; a positioning device for positioning or repositioning said at least one component part of the rotor relative to another component part of the rotor or another body; and a movement device for moving the rotor from the first location to the second location. Also described is a method of loading a rotor into a balancing machine.

摘要： A mounting apparatus for a rotor, including: a first portion for connection to a driving means, for rotation about a first rotational axis; a second portion comprising a mounting assembly adapted for engaging with a portion of the rotor so as to hold the rotor relative thereto, configured for rotation about a second rotational axis; and a connection member connecting the first portion to the second portion so that rotational movement of the first portion effects rotational movement of the second portion about the second rotational axis, wherein the connection member is configured substantially to prevent radial movement of the second portion relative to the first portion, while enabling inclination of the first rotational axis relative to the second rotational axis.
