Abstract

In an apparatus for transmitting and method a movement which, as a function of a first, translational movement of a first coupling element to which a first component can be coupled, produces a translational movement of a second coupling element to which a second component can be coupled. The invention provides that the first and the second coupling element are connected to one another, such that they can move by a first rigid element, and in that the first coupling element is connected to a first lever which is mounted in a fixed position, and the second coupling element is connected to a second lever which is mounted in a fixed position. When a movement is being transmitted, the arrangement thus results in the capability first of all to retard the movement of the second component and later to accelerate it again in a corresponding manner, or vice versa.
