ABSTRACT:
The invention is a system to counterbalance the static torque produced by a weight mounted to a beam member which in turn is rotatably mounted to a frame member, the beam member rotatable about the axis of rotation which is substantially aligned with the longitudinal axis of the frame member. The system comprises a support member rotatively mounted to the frame member and coupled to the beam member for simultaneously rotation about the axis of rotation. A pressurizable power actuator having a first end pivotally mounted to the frame member and a second end having an output shaft for producing an output force proportional to the pressure level within the actuator. A coupling device is included connecting the output shaft to the support member. A pressure level control system is provided for maintaining the pressure level within the actuator to produce a torque sufficient to counterbalance the torque produced by the weight.
