The invention discloses a lens module for a monitoring a camera, which comprises a lens and an
infrared breaker arranged on the lens, wherein the lens comprises a lens cover and a lens cone, the lens cone is provided with a through hole, the inner wall of the lens cone at the rear part of the through hole is extended to form a round platform with an inner hole, and the middle of the round platform is provided with n optical lens; and the
infrared breaker comprises a movable device and a driving device, the movable device comprises a main body, a movable piece and an
infrared edge filter, the main body is fixed in the lens cone and is provided with a fixing hole in front of the inner hole, the movable piece is hinged with the main body and is provided with a movable hole in front of the fixing hole, the infrared
edge filter is fixed on the movable hole, and the output end of the driving device is connected with the movable piece. By adopting the monitoring camera disclosed by the invention to work at night, the infrared
edge filter is taken away from the fixing hole, light can directly penetrate the fixing hole, the passing rate of the light can be 100%, thus the working effect is improved, the structure of the infrared breaker is simplified due to the arrangement of a single
optical filter, the cost is lowered, and the performance stability is improved.
