ABSTRACT:
This multiplier includes a first link unit in a force transferring relationship with one of an actuator and a device to be actuated. A second link unit is pivotably connected to the first link unit in a force transferring relationship with the other of the actuator and the device to be actuated. At least one spring in a force transferring relationship with at least one of the first and second link units is provided. The first and second link units are disposed between the actuator and the device to be actuated with the first and second link units in cooperation with each other and the spring providing a relatively linearly increasing multiplied output force to the device to be actuated when the actuator is actuated.
