[0046] In order to improve the stability of the screw motor, an "L"-shaped support frame 703 is fixed on both sides of the screw motor. The support frame 703 is arranged on both sides of the screw motor, and the upper end of the support frame 703 is connected to the upper panel 11, and the lower end is connected to the bottom plate 13.

[0047] In order to facilitate the connection between the objective lens module 702 and the moving block on the objective lens screw lifting module 701, a mounting frame 704 is fixed on the objective lens module 702 with screws. The mounting frame 704 consists of two connecting strips and a connecting block. One end of the two connecting strips is fixed on the connecting block, and the other end is connected to the objective lens module 702 with screws. When the moving block moves up and down, the objective lens module 702 moves up and down.

[0048] The objective lens module 702 includes an objective lens turntable 705, an objective lens turntable base 706, a plurality of objective lenses 713 with different magnifications, and a rotating mechanism for driving the switching of objective lenses, which is composed of gears, a connecting shaft 712 and a turntable driving motor 711.

[0050] The objective lens turntable base 706 is a circular box with a certain height. The upper end of the objective lens turntable base 706 is open. The objective lens turntable 705 is installed in the objective lens turntable base 706 through a connecting shaft 712. At the opening at the upper end of the objective lens turntable base 706, the objective lens turntable 705 can rotate freely relative to the objective lens turntable base 706 around the connecting shaft 712. In addition, in order to facilitate the smooth flow of the light path, a circular light-transmitting hole 710 that penetrates the objective lens turntable base 706 is also opened on the objective lens turntable base 706.

[0051] In order to facilitate the rotation of the objective lens turntable 705, a turntable drive motor 711 is fixed to the objective lens turntable base 706 with screws.

Driven by the rotating objective turntable 705, the positioning piece 708 and the photoelectric switch 709 are in a relative position such that the positioning piece 708 passes through the U-shaped opening of the photoelectric switch 709, thereby blocking the photoelectric switch 709, thereby realizing the rotational positioning of each objective lens 713, and aligning different objective lenses 713 with the light-transmitting holes 710 on the objective turntable base 706, thereby realizing the switching of the lens 713.

[0054] In order to ensure that the objective lens 713 is in a vertical state when aligned with the light-transmitting hole 710, and is exactly located on the main optical axis and parallel to the main optical axis, the connecting strip on the mounting bracket 704 is tilted upward at a certain angle, and at the same time, the angle between the objective lens 73 and the central axis is consistent with the upward tilted angle of the connecting strip on the mounting bracket 704.
