Abstract
A mechanism for a multi-axis flexure positioner includes a fixed part and a movable part ( ), the movable part ( ) being connected to the fixed part via a plurality of transmission means, one for each axis, for transmitting actuation forces for the respective axes to the movable part ( ). The transmission means for each axis includes a flexure member ( ) arranged to transmit actuation forces for that axis to the movable part ( ) and to flex between the fixed part and the movable part in response to actuation forces associated with the or each other axis. There are three flexure members ( ) arranged to extend along three mutually-perpendicular axes so that each flexure member ( ) is flexible along the axes of extent of the other two flexure members ( ). Each of the three flexure members ( ) comprises a pair of flexure linkages arranged to extend parallel to each other, the three pairs of linkages thus defining three mutually-perpendicular planes.
