DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0022] The specific implementation methods of the present invention are further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the description of these implementation methods is used to help understand the present invention, but does not constitute a limitation of the present invention. In addition, the technical features involved in each implementation method of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0023] Example
[0024] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a camera and eyepiece parfocal mechanism for a surgical microscope is arranged in a housing 1, and includes a variable camera objective lens mechanism 2. The variable camera objective lens mechanism 2 includes an objective lens fixing seat 201 fixed in the housing 1. An axial through hole is provided in the objective lens fixing seat 201 for a camera objective lens 202 to pass horizontally. A card slot is provided on the objective lens fixing seat 201. The card slot is communicated with the axial through hole and is used for installing a locking plate 204. The camera objective lens 202 is arranged in the axial through hole. An adjustment component for driving the camera objective lens 202 to move is arranged on the outer side. The adjustment component includes a driven bevel gear 203 threadedly connected to the camera objective lens 202, and an active bevel gear 205 meshed with the driven bevel gear 203. A driving shaft 206 is fixed on the active bevel gear 205. A rotating shaft fixing seat 208 is provided on the housing 1, and the driving shaft 206 is arranged on the rotating shaft fixing seat 208. An adjusting knob 207 is provided on the outside of the housing 1 , and the adjusting knob 207 is fixed on the driving shaft 206 .
[0025] In this embodiment, one side of the driven bevel gear 203 has a cylindrical structure, wherein a limiting groove is provided at the cylindrical structure; the cylindrical structure has a threaded chamber in the axial direction, and the outer surface of the corresponding camera objective lens is provided with an external thread corresponding to the threaded chamber. During assembly, the cylindrical structure is inserted into the axial through hole of the objective lens fixing seat 201 and the limiting groove thereon is exposed in the card slot, and the locking piece 204 is vertically placed downward in the limiting groove and fixed to the objective lens fixing seat 201 with screws. At this time, the locking piece 204 does not affect the transmission of the driven bevel gear 203, but will constrain the axial movement of the driven bevel gear 203.
[0026] Through the above design, the operator can manually rotate the adjustment knob 207 to drive the active bevel gear 205 to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise. Since the driven bevel gear 203 is always in meshing with the active bevel gear 205, the driven bevel gear 203 can only rotate in place and will not move forward and backward. The driven bevel gear 203 is threadedly connected to the camera lens 202, and the driven bevel gear 203 rotates in place to drive the camera lens 202 to move axially, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the focal length, improving the clarity of the camera, and making the camera and the binocular lens barrel synchronized and clear.
[0027] In this embodiment, a damping plate 209 and a cap 210 are also provided on the driving shaft 206. The damping plate 209 and the cap 210 are installed between the adjusting knob 207 and the rotating shaft fixing seat 208 (located between the shell and the rotating shaft fixing seat 208), which can play a role in adjusting the hand feel and preventing the gear from rotating.
[0028] The basic working principle of this focusing mechanism: The working principle of the focusing mechanism is that the microscope image light path passes through the large objective lens and the zoom body, and then enters the beam splitter prism 3. The light path is divided into two paths and enters the binocular tube 4 and the camera ( Figure 2 The binocular tube optical path is in the middle and upward, and the camera optical path is in the horizontal direction). Due to the difference between the small objective lens of the binocular tube and the camera objective lens, the images of the two cannot be synchronized to a clear state when the magnification is changed. Therefore, a variable camera objective lens mechanism is designed so that the images of the binocular tube and the camera can be synchronized and clearly used at any magnification to eliminate visual aberration.
[0029] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the described embodiments. For those skilled in the art, various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations of these embodiments are made without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and still fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
