Abstract:
Microsurgical microscope system with a stand and with a microscope arranged thereon, in which system the stand has:a base part, a first substantially vertical parallelogram linkage, of which one bar of the substantially vertical bars is mounted on the base part so as to pivot about a pivot axle, a second substantially horizontal parallelogram linkage with two substantially horizontal bars and two further bars, of which one substantially horizontal bar is a continuation of the upper substantially horizontal bar of the first parallelogram linkage, and a mounting device for the microscope is arranged on the first further bar arranged at a distance from the first parallelogram linkage, and a third substantially vertical parallelogram linkage whose first lower hinge on the pivot axle of one of the substantially vertical bars of the first parallelogram linkage is connected to the base part, and whose second lower hinge is likewise connected to the base part and is connected via its upper bar to the second parallelogram linkage, characterized in that the second lower hinge of the third parallelogram linkage is arranged higher than the first, and in that the connection line between first and second hinges forms with the horizontal an angle of approximately 30Â° to 60Â°, and in that the upper bar of the third parallelogram linkage forms the second further bar of the second parallelogram linkage.
