Abstract
A profiling apparatus includes: a holder rotationally moves around a first fulcrum, and holds a subject; a balancer rotationally moves around a second fulcrum, an intermediate part coupled to holder part and balancer, expands and contracts in a coupling direction, and bends in a direction orthogonal to the coupling direction, in which a position of the first fulcrum, a first gravity center position, a bending position, and a second gravity center position are aligned in this order. The first gravity center position corresponds to a gravity center of a part, which rotationally moves around the first fulcrum, of the subject and the holder in a case where the subject is held. The bending position corresponds to a bending point of the intermediate part. The second gravity center position corresponds to a gravity center of a part, which rotationally moves around the second fulcrum, of the second fulcrum position and balancer.
