Abstract
A spring balanced support device having at least one arm, connected to its surroundings via a movable pivot point, forming an arm mechanism to which a mass may be coupled directly or indirectly at a mass coupling point, balanced by at least one spring, at one end directly or indirectly connected to the arm mechanism at a spring connection point, the other end directly or indirectly connected to the surroundings at a spring base point, wherein the spring base point is located substantially on an axis which extends through the movable pivot point and substantially parallel to a direction of a force exerted on the spring balanced support device at the mass coupling point due to the force of gravity on the mass, or wherein the spring base point is located at a distance from said axis along a line which intersects the axis and which extends substantially parallel to a pivot point axis of the movable pivot point, wherein the movable pivot point is movable along the axis in order to adjust the spring balanced support device.
