Abstract
Disclosed herein is an arrangement for counteracting mass unbalance in a rotatable assembly, such as the rotor assembly of a gyroscope. The invention proposes the use of two coaxially and mutually independently rotatably displaceable, mass eccentricity-producing balance weights, of which each can be assembled with a support element forming part of the rotatable assembly in any one of a great number of angular orientations.
