Claims6
A manipulating device comprising:
- a first parallel linkage mechanism having a pair of first links and a pair of second links;
- a second parallel linkage mechanism having a pair of third links and a pair of fourth links;
- and
- a support member supporting a first link of the third links,
- an armrest member, to which a manipulating member is attached at a tip-end part thereof, the armrest member disposed on a lower-end part of the first parallel linkage mechanism, wherein
- a first link of the second links is attached to an upper-end of the first links,
- a first link of the fourth links is attached to a lower-end of the third links,
- the first link of the second links and the first link of the fourth links are the same link such that the first parallel linkage mechanism and the second parallel linkage mechanism commonly use the first link of the second links and the first link of the fourth links.
