Abstract
A micromechanical spring structure, in particular for a rotation rate sensor, includes a first and a second cooperating elastic bar, segments of which run largely parallel to each other and segments of which are coupled with one another. The first and second elastic bars have a common curved area in which they are coupled with one another by a connecting area. A first transitional area to the connecting area, located between the first and second elastic bars, forms a largely smooth curve.
