Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif d'appui pour un dispositif de mesure doté d'un bras de mesure (16) mobile dans l'espace pour mesurer un objet (15) corporel, le dispositif d'appui (11-14; 500; 700) pouvant être positionné au moyen d'un dispositif de référence disposé sur le bras de mesure, pour créer au moins un emplacement d'appui (32-35; 736) contre lequel ou sur lequel l'objet de mesure est placé pendant la mesure. L'invention porte également sur un dispositif de mesure (10) et sur un procédé de mesure. Selon l'invention, le dispositif d'appui comporte au moins deux pieds d'appui (37,200) dotés chacun d'une extrémité (30, 30') correspondant au dispositif de référence (26), de sorte que les pieds d'appui peuvent être positionnés au moyen du dispositif de référence sur une surface de base (36) du dispositif de mesure. Le dispositif d'appui comprend également un élément de couplage (38; 538; 738) doté de dispositifs de couplage (91; 591, 791) pour les extrémités des pieds d'appui, de sorte que l'élément de couplage (38; 538; 738), après le positionnement des pieds d'appui, peut être monté sur ceux-ci, l'élément de couplage constituant alors un emplacement d'appui (32-35; 736).
