Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of telescopes, in particular to a connection structure between a telescope barrel and a telescope mount and a telescope thereof. Background Art

[0002] A telescope barrel for observing distant object scenes is composed of high-precision optical elements, which are carefully designed to ensure that the observed images are clear and bright. The design of the telescope barrel takes into account the accurate transmission of light so that users can see the details and clarity of distant objects. The telescope barrel is usually made of metal or other durable materials to withstand long-term use and various weather conditions. In addition, the length of the telescope barrel can be adjusted to meet the needs of different observation distances.

[0003] The bottom support structure of the telescope barrel is called a telescope mount. It is a stable device responsible for carrying and fixing the telescope barrel to ensure that the telescope barrel can maintain a stable and precise posture throughout the observation process. Such a design can not only improve the observation accuracy but also reduce image blurring caused by vibration or shaking, so that the telescope can provide a high-quality observation experience even in an unstable environment. The telescope mount is usually made of hard and wear-resistant materials, such as high-strength alloys or specially treated metals, to adapt to various harsh outdoor environments and ensure the service life of the telescope. In addition, since different lenses need to be adapted to different telescope mounts, a component is required to assemble the telescope barrel and the telescope mount. The structure of this component needs to enable the telescope barrel to rotate flexibly on the telescope mount to observe object scenes in different directions.

[0004] In the patent "A Telescope Facilitating Installation and Fixation" (publication number: CN219552759U, hereinafter referred to as the prior art 1), a telescope mounting bracket is disclosed. In the prior art 1, the support height is adjusted by inserting the upper support feet below the bracket into the internal storage cavity of the lower support feet, and the upper support feet are fixed in the lower bracket by inserting pins. When the bottom fixing plate of the telescope main body is installed above the mounting bracket and fixed, the clamping plate at the bottom end of the fixing plate is snapped into the mounting cavity for limiting. The side of the mounting bracket is inserted into the sliding rod, and the side end of the sliding rod penetrates through the through hole in the side wall of the clamping plate and the mounting cavity and extends to the side end of the threaded sleeve. The side of the threaded sleeve is fixed by rotating the knob, and the sliding rod is rotated to splice and fix the external thread at the side end and the threaded sleeve. In the prior art 1, the telescope barrel is directly installed on the mounting bracket through the mounting plate, and its angle setting is fixed. When adjustment is required, it needs to be reinstalled after disassembly, which is very inconvenient for users. Moreover, the contact area between the mounting plate and the telescope barrel in the prior art 1 is small, and the stress area for the telescope barrel is insufficient, which may lead to unstable installation between the telescope barrel and the mounting plate.

[0028] Embodiment 1

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1, an embodiment of the present utility model provides a connection structure between a telescope barrel and a telescope mount, including a barrel connection seat 100 and a mount connection seat 200. The purpose of this connection structure is to enable the barrel to be stably installed on the mount, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the telescope during use. The barrel connection seat 100 is usually designed to tightly fix the barrel to prevent unnecessary movement during use. The mount connection seat 200 is designed as a rotatable mount, which can not only place the barrel stably on the observation table, but also enable the barrel to be adjusted at multiple angles. The barrel connection seat 100 and the mount connection seat 200 are respectively the two ends of the connection structure, and the two ends of the connection structure are respectively arranged, so that the barrel and the mount can be installed.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 1 , the barrel connection seat 100 and the mount connection seat 200 are hinged. Through the hinge between the barrel connection seat 100 and the mount connection seat 200, it has a part with an adjustable angle. When the barrel is installed on the barrel connection seat 100, the mount connection seat 200 serves as a base. The barrel and the barrel connection seat 100 are fixedly connected, and the barrel and the barrel connection seat 100 can rotate simultaneously through their hinge, and the angle of the barrel being lifted or pressed down can be adjusted to change the height of observation.

[0031] The barrel connection seat 100 includes a barrel connection main body 110 and a first hinge block 111 and a second hinge block 112 arranged on both sides of the bottom of the barrel connection main body 110. The barrel connection main body 110 is fixedly assembled with the barrel for installation, and is hinged with the mount connection seat 200 through the first hinge block 111 and the second hinge block 112.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 1 , the top of the barrel connection main body 110 is provided with a joint groove 120 adapted to the fuselage of the barrel, and the joint groove 120 is arranged in an arc surface, a plane or a groove; generally arranged in an arc surface. Since most barrels are cylindrical, it is set as an arc surface more. Through its arc surface, it is joined with the outer surface of the barrel, and then the barrel is fastened by fixing parts to have a stable fixed assembly with the barrel connection main body 110. At least two uniformly distributed mounting holes are provided on the joint groove 120, and fasteners are installed through the mounting holes to join with the barrel.

[0033] The mount connection seat 200 is provided with a mount connection main body 210; a boss 211 hinged with the barrel connection seat 100 is provided on the top of the mount connection main body 210; a rotating shaft 212 is provided at the bottom of the mount connection main body 210. The mount connection main body 210 is the part for installing with the following mounting frame, and the mounting frame is the mount. The barrel can be arranged through the mounting frame so that it can be used without being held by hand.

[0034] The top of the lens base connecting body 210 is not only hinged to the lens barrel connecting seat 100, but also the bottom is hinged to the boss 211 of the mounting bracket. The hinged connection between the lens base connecting body 210 and the lens barrel connecting seat 100 enables the adjustment of the angle of lifting or pressing down the lens barrel, while the hinged connection between the lens base connecting body 210 and the boss 211 enables the lens barrel to rotate on a plane to adjust the horizontal observation orientation of the lens barrel.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 , the first hinge block 111 and the second hinge block 112 are respectively provided with a first hinge hole and a second hinge hole; the first hinge hole and the second hinge hole are coaxially arranged; the diameter of the second hinge hole is larger than that of the first hinge hole. The inner wall of the second hinge hole is provided with a plurality of evenly distributed convex teeth 115; a gear 116 meshing with the plurality of convex teeth 115 is arranged in the second hinge hole. The boss 211 is provided with a shaft hole coaxially arranged with the first hinge hole and the second hinge hole; the first hinge hole, the shaft hole and the inner hole of the gear 116 are connected by a hinge shaft 117. The hinge shaft 117 is fixedly connected to the inner holes of the first hinge hole and the gear 116; the hinge shaft 117 is rotatably connected to the shaft hole.

[0036] In terms of size, the designed diameter of the second hinge hole is significantly larger than that of the first hinge hole, and such a size difference is beneficial to the arrangement of the gear 116 in the second hinge hole. And there are a plurality of evenly distributed convex teeth 115 on the inner wall of the second hinge hole. The existence of these convex teeth 115 is designed to mesh with the internal gear 116, so as to provide additional grip and prevent relative sliding during the rotation process. And by providing a turning handle 213 at one end of the hinge shaft 117, the turning handle 213 and the gear 116 are both fixedly connected to the hinge shaft 117. By rotating the gear 116 through the turning handle 213, the gear 116 rotates based on its convex teeth 115, and the angle of the lens barrel can be adjusted. The meshing design of the gear 116 and the convex teeth 115 enhances the overall connection performance and also enables smoother rotation during the operation process.

[0037] Furthermore, in order to fix the position of the lens barrel connecting body 110 after rotation and prevent it from changing due to external forces, a first threaded hole is provided on the gear 116, and a second threaded hole corresponding to the first threaded hole is provided on the first hinge block 111. Since the relative positions of the gear 116 and the first hinge block 111 are fixed, the relative positions of the first threaded hole and the second threaded hole are also fixed. A locking bolt is provided in the first threaded hole and the second threaded hole. When the lens barrel connecting body 110 needs to be rotated, the locking bolt on the first threaded hole and the second threaded hole is unscrewed, and then it can be rotated through the turning handle. When the rotation is completed and fixation is required, the locking bolt is tightened to complete the position locking. Since the locking bolt is generally screwed by tools such as a screwdriver, it is very inconvenient. Therefore, a handle is provided at the end of the locking bolt, and it can be screwed through the handle.

[0038] Embodiment 2

[0039] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 Please refer to

[0040] Please refer to Figure 2 In the structure of the mounting bracket, a turntable 410 is specifically provided. This turntable 410 not only provides an additional fixed point for the telescope, but also enables the telescope to be finely adjusted in the horizontal direction to meet different observation environments and target observation requirements. The lens base connecting body 210 is connected to the turntable 410 through a precision rotating shaft 212. The design of this rotating shaft 212 must ensure rigidity while allowing necessary flexibility so that fine adjustment can be performed during the observation process. The telescope body relies on the turntable 410 for real-time rotation adjustment. This flexible rotation adjustment function enables the telescope to quickly and accurately track the target. No matter how the target position changes, the telescope responds through adjustment to ensure the continuity and accuracy of the observation.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 3 , the bottom of the turntable 410 is evenly provided with a first support leg 420, a second support leg 430 and a third support leg 440 at angular intervals; the first support leg 420, the second support leg 430 and the third support leg 440 are respectively hinged to the mounting bracket. The first support leg 420, the second support leg 430 and the third support leg 440 are respectively provided with a first connection block 421, a second connection block 431 and a third connection block 441. The first connection block 421, the second connection block 431 and the third connection block 441 are respectively hinged to one end of a first hinge arm 422, a second hinge arm and a third hinge arm 442; the other ends of the first hinge arm 422, the second hinge arm and the third hinge arm 442 are all hinged to a retracting block 450. The retracting block 450 is coaxially arranged with the turntable 410; when the first hinge arm 422, the second hinge arm and the third hinge arm 442 are unfolded, a support column 460 is arranged between the retracting block 450 and the lens holder.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 3 , the retracting block 450 is coaxially arranged with the turntable 410; when the first hinge arm 422, the second hinge arm and the third hinge arm 442 are unfolded, a support column 460 is arranged between the retracting block 450 and the turntable 410. During use, press the retracting block 450 downward, so that the first support leg 420, the second support leg 430 and the third support leg 440 are unfolded based on the hinges at both ends, and then the support column 460 is arranged between the top of the retracting block 450 and the bottom of the turntable 410 to limit the position of the retracting block 450 so that it cannot be retracted. When retraction is needed, remove the support column 460 on the retracting block 450 and lift the retracting block 450 upward, so that the first support leg 420, the second support leg 430 and the third support leg 440 are retracted based on the retracting block 450 to complete the storage. Further, the support column 460 can be installed on the retracting block 450 and set in the same way as the storage method of an umbrella in the prior art.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 2, in the present utility model, the lens barrel and the mounting bracket (i.e., the lens base) are connected separately. The lens base connecting seat 200 and the lens barrel connecting seat 100 are hinged, and the lens barrel connecting seat 100 is fixedly connected to the lens barrel, so that the lens barrel can be adjusted in angle in the vertical direction. The lens base connecting seat 200 is rotatably connected to the mounting bracket, so that the lens barrel can be adjusted in angle in the horizontal direction. When adjusting, only need to rotate different parts to complete the adjustment, and can adjust while observing, ensuring the continuity and accuracy of the observation. And the surface where the lens barrel connecting body 110 in this application combines with the lens barrel has a relatively long length, so that there is sufficient force-bearing area between the engaging groove 120 and the lens barrel body, making its installation more stable.

[0044] Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present utility model, rather than to limit it; although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: it is still possible to modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present utility model.
