Abstract
A pantograph mechanism comprises a support member adapted for mounting on a stationary support, a holding member disposed in parallel relationship with the support member and adapted for mounting on it a member to be moved, and a pair of links which connect the holding and the support members. The area occupied by the pantograph mechanism is minimized by means of a judicious choice of shape for the links, while permitting a translational movement of the holding member relative to the support member.
