Sliding microtome for cutting object, has levers with guiding sections and guiding surfaces, where sections work together with surfaces such that movement of one lever in two different directions moves another lever in target direction

摘要

The microtome has a lever arrangement (10) with two levers (11, 12), where each of the levers is rotatably supported around the axes (13, 14), which are arranged parallel to each other. The lever (11) is movable by an operator, and the lever (12) operates a delivery mechanism of the microtome. The lever (12) has two guiding surfaces (17, 18), and the lever (11) has two guiding sections (20), which work together with the surfaces in such a manner that the movement of the lever (11) in two different directions moves the lever (12) in a target direction.
