Abstract:
A connection arrangement for connecting an optical component of an optical imaging arrangement to a support unit of a support structure includes: a connecting element unit having a support interface end with support interface section; and a component interface end with a component interface section.

Claim (Index 1):
An arrangement configured to connect an optical component to a support unit of a support structure, the arrangement comprising:\n a connecting element unit having a support interface end with a support interface section and a component interface end with a component interface section, wherein:\n the support interface section is configured to form a support interface to mechanically connect to the support unit; \n the component interface section is configured to provide a component interface for mechanical connection to the optical component; \n the connecting element unit defines a force flow path between the support interface section and the component interface section so that, when the component is supported by the support unit via the connecting element unit, support forces supporting the component flow along the force flow path; \n at least one parasitic load compensation unit is located in a vicinity of the component interface section and external to the force flow path; and \n the parasitic load compensation unit is configured to reduce and/or counteract thermal expansion induced parasitic loads introduced in at least one parasitic load direction into the component as a result of thermal expansion of the connecting element unit in the at least one parasitic load direction.
