Abstract
Disclosed is a device including a compliant mechanism including: a first monolithic flexible element, having first and second ends defining a first longitudinal direction, arranged such that it is able to be subjected to an elastic deformation involving a relative movement between its first and second ends; and at least a second monolithic flexible element, having first and second ends defining a second longitudinal direction distinct from the first longitudinal direction, arranged such that it is able to be subjected to an elastic deformation involving a relative movement between its first and second ends. At least one of the first and second monolithic flexible elements includes at least one opening located between its first and second ends and defining a passage for a portion of the other monolithic flexible element such that the first and second monolithic flexible elements are interlocked.
