Claim:
1. A mechanism for coupling motion of an actuator, the mechanism being adapted to surround the actuator and to contact opposite ends of the actuator, the mechanism comprising: a mounting portion that during an extension motion lengthening the actuator, remains at a fixed position and receives a pushing force from a first opposite end of the actuator; and a lifting portion that during the extension motion lengthening the actuator, receives a pushing force from a second opposite end of the actuator; and a coupling disc connected to the lifting portion on one side surface and to the mounting portion on another side surface, whereby the extension motion lengthening the actuator causes the lifting portion of the mechanism to move in an upward direction while elastically deforming the coupling disc, and a diaphragm to move in the upward direction in conjunction with the lifting portion.
