Abstract
A head fixation device includes a rocker arm assembly containing one or more stabilizing features. The rocker arm is rotatably adjustable about a longitudinal axis of the rocker arm assembly to any rotational position in a non-stepped fashion. The rocker arm assembly is removable from the head fixation device for easy of cleaning. A lever of the rocker arm assembly translates a shaft and includes eccentric features to provide a camming action for moving locking features of the rocker arm assembly to an unlocked state such that the rocker arm can be rotationally adjusted.
