Abstract
The invention relates to a positioning apparatus, comprising a rotatable spindle, a sliding member, wherein a spindle counter segment of the sliding member is displaced along the spindle when the spindle rotates, a first guide for the sliding member, which interacts with a first guide counter segment of the sliding member and, in the process, leaves the sliding member with a linear mobility along the first guide axis and a pivotability about the first guide axis, and a second guide for the sliding member, which interacts with a second guide counter segment of the sliding member and, in the process, restricts the pivotability of the sliding member about the first guide axis.
