Abstract
A movable body supporting mechanism supports a movable body (12, 42) to be moved in a direction orthogonal to a flat surface, on which a fixed member (11, 41) and the movable body are both mounted. The movable body supporting mechanism is provided with: a lever (13a, 13b, 46a, 46b) rotatably linked to the fixed member and the movable body; a movable body gear (18a, 18b, 52) mounted on the movable body at a side thereof opposed to the fixed member; and a pinion (14a, 14b, 44a, 44b) engaged with the movable body gear and driven in conjunction with the lever.
