Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2007042385A2] The invention relates to a structure consisting of a first and second component and a connecting element, which joins the two components together and comprises at least two spring elements. The aim of the invention is to provide a structure, in particular an optical structure of the aforementioned type, in which the two components have an extremely high positional and angular degree of accuracy in relation to one another. To achieve this, each spring element has a spring constant that is at least double the value, (in two perpendicular spatial directions), of the third spatial direction, or direction of elasticity, running perpendicular to the first two spatial directions. The two spring elements have elasticity directions that do not run parallel to each other.
