Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of optical lenses, and particularly to a threaded structure of an optical lens. Background Art
[0002] In the manufacturing of optical lenses, the connection between the lens barrel and the rear seat is usually achieved by means of ordinary threads. However, there are many problems with this traditional threaded fitting method. First, when two sets of the same threads are paired with each other, it is difficult to precisely control the gap between the threads, resulting in loosening of the fit during mass production, which in turn affects the imaging quality and stability of the lens. Second, since the torque is difficult to effectively adjust, it is usually necessary to apply glue manually to improve the torque, which not only increases the production cost but also may lead to an increase in the rejection rate of the finished products. In addition, the locking effect of the traditional threaded fitting is not ideal, and shaking is likely to occur, thus affecting the imaging quality of the optical lens. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is: to provide a threaded structure of an optical lens to solve the problems of thread loosening, difficult torque control, and poor locking effect existing in the prior art.
[0004] To solve the above technical problem, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a threaded structure of an optical lens, comprising a rear seat provided with a rectangular internal thread; a lens barrel provided with a trapezoidal external thread that mates with the rectangular internal thread; two corner portions of the tooth top of the rectangular internal thread abut against the side edges of the trapezoidal external thread.
[0005] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The threaded structure of the optical lens provided by the present invention realizes the tight fit and uniform stress of the threads by adopting the combination of a rectangular internal thread and a trapezoidal external thread, and designing that the tooth top corners of the rectangular internal thread abut against the side edges of the trapezoidal external thread. This structure not only enhances the stability of the threaded connection, effectively prevents relative shaking between the lens barrel and the rear seat, thereby improving the imaging quality of the optical lens; but also makes the wear mainly concentrated on the tooth top corners of the rectangular internal thread, facilitating the control and prediction of the wear position, and reducing the risk of deterioration of the imaging quality of the optical lens caused by thread loosening. In addition, this fitting method can form a stable frictional force during the assembly process, which helps to achieve more precise torque control and further improves the accuracy and reliability of the assembly of the optical lens.
