Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of microscopes, and in particular to an optical microscope based on ergonomic viewing angle optimization. Background Art
[0002] Most of the eyepieces of current optical microscopes are at a 45° angle or perpendicular to the horizontal plane. For users, the eyepiece is at a 45° angle. Due to the different heights of the desktop, it is impossible to ensure that the eyepiece is exactly at the height of the user's eyes. Therefore, the user often has to bend over to make the eyes fit the eyepiece, and excessive bending can easily cause damage to the user's cervical spine, cervical bone hyperplasia, intervertebral disc herniation, and easily cause damage to the user's shoulders and pain. For microscopes with eyepieces perpendicular to the horizontal plane, it is even more inconvenient for users to use them, and they often need to bend their upper body significantly to make the eyes fit the eyepiece. Compared with microscopes with eyepieces at a 45° angle, this type of microscope is more inconvenient to use and does not meet ergonomic requirements.
[0003] CN202411121650.1 discloses an optical microscope with a stable anti-deflection structure, whose eyepiece is arranged perpendicular to the horizontal plane, and CN202410430260.6 solves the problem that the height of the optical microscope cannot be adjusted according to the height of the user. However, since the eyepiece still adopts a 45° angle design, the user still needs to bend down to fit the eyes and the eyepiece when using it. Summary of the invention

Of course, since there are variable magnification objective lenses on the market, they are also suitable for the present invention. As for the installation relationship therein, it is not complicated for those skilled in the art, and will not be described here.

[0025] In order to facilitate the loading and disassembly of the second reflector 33, the second reflector 33 is fixed to the upper surface of the prism frame 3 through a fixing frame 35.
