BREAKING DOWN MARKET BARRIERS FOR SMALL AND MID-SIZED ORGANIC GROWERS

The invention relates to a stand arrangement ( 100 ) for a medical-optical instrument. The stand arrangement includes a first link ( 104 ) which is pivotally supported on a holding unit ( 101 ) by a first rotational joint. The stand arrangement ( 100 ) further includes a second link ( 106 ) which is rotatably connected to the first link ( 104 ) via a second rotational joint ( 105 ). A take-up unit ( 109 ) for medical-optical equipment is held in a forward section ( 107, 108 ) of the second link ( 106 ) by a third rotational joint. The take-up unit ( 109 ) includes a front link ( 111 ) which, in turn, is connected via a third link ( 112 ) and a fourth link ( 113 ) to the second rotational joint ( 105 ). The holding unit ( 101 ) and the fourth link ( 113 ) are coupled with the aid of a toothed gear unit ( 118 ) in such a manner that the orientation of the front link ( 111 ) does not change with the movement of the first link ( 104 ).
