Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of lenses, and in particular to a focusing and variable magnification lens mechanism. Background Art

[0002] The existing implementation scheme of focusing and zooming lens usually sets two sets of linked inner lens barrels inside the outer lens barrel, one set is responsible for zooming and the other set is responsible for focusing. The two sets of lens barrels are set in the same inner lens barrel. The technical principle is as follows Figure 7 , through the two motors set on the outer barrel, the linkage group 1 is driven to change the magnification, and the linkage group 2 is driven to focus. This solution has a large coordination risk during implementation. Since the two linkage groups are set in one outer barrel, it is assumed that the linkage group 1 is the magnification group and the linkage group 2 is the focusing group (vice versa), and the light path is transmitted from the right (vice versa). During the execution process, this mechanism first performs the magnification action (that is, the linkage group 1 is actuated first). Once it fails to perform the magnification operation normally during this process (such as the assembly tolerance is large and cannot meet the optical accuracy), the subsequent focusing action (and linkage group 2 is actuated) is performed. Since the linkage group 1 fails to meet the optical requirements, no matter how the linkage group 2 is actuated, the lens optical path cannot be corrected. This phenomenon can be compared to the circuit series phenomenon, that is, two bulbs (analogous to the two linkage groups) are connected in series on the circuit (analogous to the outer barrel). If one bulb is bad, the other cannot work normally. Therefore, in order to solve this problem, we propose a focusing and magnification lens mechanism. Summary of the invention

[0027] It should be noted that the present invention is a focusing and zooming lens mechanism, in which the linkage group 1 is arranged in the outer lens barrel A2, the linkage group 1 is driven by the first drive motor 4 to perform zooming or focusing, and then the outer lens barrel A2 is arranged in the outer lens barrel B6, and the outer lens barrel A2 is driven by the second drive motor 7 to actuate, that is, when the outer lens barrel A2 is actuated, the linkage group 1 will follow the outer lens barrel A2 to actuate, and perform focusing or zooming. In this scheme, the focusing group and the zooming group are both independent partitions, and the optical path only passes through the linkage group 1. During the execution process, this mechanism first performs the zooming action, that is, the linkage group 1 is actuated first. During this process, if it fails to perform the zooming operation normally, such as the assembly tolerance is large and the optical accuracy cannot be met, when the focusing action is performed later, that is, when the outer lens barrel A2 is actuated, the optical path of the entire lens is corrected by adjusting the position of the outer lens barrel A2 to compensate for the poor optical performance caused by the linkage group 1.
