The invention discloses a flexible supporting method of a large-aperture lens, which comprises the steps of; firstly, machining three bosses on the excircle of a circular lens base with a certain thickness at intervals of 120 DEG , machining a connecting part with a cuboid structure on the outer side of each boss, machining an installing hole and a pin hole on the outer side of each boss along the radial direction of the lens base, machining an installing hole and a pin hole on the connecting part along the axial direction of the lens base, machining an installing hole on each boss along the axial direction of the lens base, and machining a small boss with a step on the inner side of each boss; secondly, machining three corresponding installing surfaces on the excircle of the lens at intervals of 120 DEG, and machining radial flexible elements and axial press plates; thirdly, bonding the radial flexible elements with the lens, and fixing the bonded assembly in the lens base through the installing holes and the pin holes; and finally, tightly pressing the lens through the axial press plates, and fixing the axial press plates through the installing holes. According to the supporting method disclosed by the invention, positioning precision of the lens is integrally improved, stress environment of the lens under an assembling condition is improved, and optical aberration such as field curvature, astigmatism and the like can be eliminated.
