Family: swivel_ball_joint_mount
Anchor: JW Winco GN 784 aluminum mounting clamp with swivel ball joint — product page · official PDF

Model the GN 784 cylindrical housing, captured ball, base, and selected clamp actuator in finish ELS. Type A has an internal-thread ball; Type B has an external-thread ball. Identification 1 uses an adjustable lever and 2 a hex-socket set screw. Exclude GN 784.1, payloads, VESA/monitor/speaker hardware, and the on-request hand knob.

Parameters to verify at claim

  • catalog_row: exactly one of the eight printed rows; it supplies the applicable thread and dimension fields together with the matching d1 common row.
  • ball_type: A | B; clamp_actuator: 1 | 2; finish fixed to ELS. Only a nonblank published thread alternative is valid.
  • Published usable thread depth for d2,d3,d5: 1.5D metric or 1.2D inch.
  • The drawing marks 30°, 90°, and 360°; verify their exact meanings before exposing movement parameters. A fixed catalog pose is acceptable.
  • Difficulty: easy = d1 31/39 metric, A/2; medium = all metric A/B with both actuators; hard = all eight rows including inch alternatives.
  • proportion: socket split/seat, hidden retainer, contact clearance, casting draft, small steps/fillets/chamfers, lever reindexing, screw tips/recesses, pins, thread helices, and surface texture.

Engineering constraints

  • Preserve exact whole-row coupling and reject every blank row/type/thread combination.
  • Keep ball diameter d6 captured but partly exposed. Base thread d5 and anti-rotation hole d8 at offset m must remain inside positive base material.
  • The selected lever or set-screw envelope must clear the ball and housing in the chosen static pose; hidden clamping hardware may be omitted.
  • Clamp and stop torques are catalog metadata, not calculated performance. Do not infer any angular range not explicitly supported by the drawing.
