Title: Means for supporting a displaceable mass on a stationary frame

Abstract: A mass which projects from a displaceable member is supported by a lever system on a stationary frame such that the bending stresses caused by the mass on the displaceable member are reduced. The lever system uses a pair of levers which are hinged to the frame, to each other and to the displacable member and mass respectively. The lever arms are arranged such that the amount of vertical movement of the displaceable member is essentially equal at the projecting end of the mass.
