Zusammenfassung:PCT No. PCT/FR90/00498 Sec. 371 Date Dec. 30, 1991 Sec. 102(e) Date Dec. 30, 1991 PCT Filed Jul. 3, 1990 PCT Pub. No. WO91/00976 PCT Pub. Date Jan. 24, 1991.A mechanism for finely adjusting the orientation and/or the position of a payload, characterized in that it comprises: a resilient mechanism constituted by at least one continuous ring (10); a payload support device (15) suitable for transforming deformation of the ring into rotation or into combined rotation and translation; a ring deformation mechanism (11) suitable for directly applying simultaneous deformation forces at two diameterically opposite points of the ring; and a device (14) for varying the orientation of the diametral line of action of the ring deformation mechanism, thereby enabling the orientation and/or the position of the payload to be adjusted finely or coarsely. The mechanism is applicable to the optical industry, to pointing antennas, etc.
