Gimbal

What do we mean by gimbal?

A rigid frame or ring in which an object is supported by pivots. Two such rings mounted on axes at right angles to each other allow an object such as a ship's compass to remain suspended in a horizontal plane between them regardless of any motion of its support. noun

A device consisting of gimbals. noun

To supply with or support on gimbals. transitive verb

A contrivance, as a ring moving on horizontal pivots, for securing free motion in suspension, or for suspending anything, as a chronometer, so that it may keep a constant position or remain in equilibrium. noun

Joined or interlocked work whose parts move within each other, as a bridle-bit or interlocked rings; a gemel-ring. noun

A quaint piece of mechanism; a gimcrack. noun

A contrivance for permitting a body to incline freely in all directions, or for suspending anything, as a barometer, ship's compass, chronometer, etc., so that it will remain plumb, or level, when its support is tipped, as by the rolling of a ship. It consists of a ring in which the body can turn on an axis through a diameter of the ring, while the ring itself is so pivoted to its support that it can turn about a diameter at right angles to the first. noun

A universal joint embodying the principle of the gimbal. noun

A single gimbal, as that by which the cockeye of the upper millstone is supported on the spindle. noun

A device for suspending something, such as a ship's compass, so that it will remain level when its support is tipped. noun

An appliance that allows an object (such as a ship's compass) to remain horizontal even as its support tips noun

A device for suspending something, such as a ship's compass, so that it will remain level when its support is tipped.

A signature move of graphics programmers where the lock your nuts with the back of their knee. say that the nuts form a right triangle ABC with the back of the programmer's knee, with angle ACB=90°. Consider angle BAC. tan(BAC) = BC/AC, but BAC is less than 90°. To increase the painfulness, the programmer can make angle BAC closer and closer to 90 degrees by increasing the length of BC, therefore squeezing the nuts more and more. But as we keep doing this, AC stays the same so the ratio BC/AC gets infinitely large, as does the pain in the nuts. So tan(90°) has no geometric meaning. Two legs of the programmer become infinitely long and never meet one another. Urban Dictionary
