Technical Field

[0002] With the development of infrared detection technology, infrared thermal imaging lenses have been widely used in military and civilian fields. Compared with single-field-of-view infrared thermal imaging lenses with fixed focal length and continuously zooming infrared thermal imaging lenses, dual-field-of-view infrared thermal imaging lenses can achieve target search in a wide field of view and target identification and tracking in a narrow field of view, with lower development costs and shorter design cycles.
[0003] Conventional dual-field-of-view infrared lenses use a motor to drive the zoom cam to rotate accordingly. The zoom curve groove and the zoom guide pin assembly drive the zoom slide to move along the zoom curve groove. Under the restriction of the straight groove, the rotational motion of the zoom slide is converted into linear motion for zooming. This type of lens requires high machining precision, and the matching precision requirements of the related parts of the drive mechanism are also very high. The transmission link is complex and requires high precision. In an impact environment, the system's field of view is prone to out-of-focus problems. Utility Model Content

The top of the main lens barrel is an adjustment platform. The main lens barrel includes a front fixed lens group and a rear fixed lens group. The screw is installed on the adjustment platform through a set of support seats. The rear end of the screw is connected to the coupling and the motor. The front part of the screw is installed with an anti-backlash nut. The guide rail is installed on one side of the screw. The slider of the guide rail is connected to the anti-backlash nut. The switching lens group is coaxially arranged between the front fixed lens group and the rear fixed lens group. The top of the switching lens group is connected to the slider through a matching block.
[0006] Furthermore, a guide block coaxial with the main lens barrel is provided on the bottom wall of the main lens barrel, and a correction guide groove is provided at the bottom of the switching lens group to slide with the guide block.
[0007] Furthermore, the deviation-correcting guide groove is clearance-matched with the guide block, and a ball is installed in the deviation guide groove and is slidably installed with the guide block.

[0015] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the present invention clearer, the preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings to facilitate understanding by technicians.
[0016] The utility model proposes a dual-field infrared lens, see Figure 1-3 A dual-field infrared lens includes a main lens barrel 1, a screw 2, a coupling 3, a motor 4, an anti-backlash nut 5, a guide rail 6, and a switching lens group 7. The top of the main lens barrel 1 is an adjustment platform 11. The main lens barrel 1 includes a front fixed lens group 12 and a rear fixed lens group 13. The screw 2 is installed on the adjustment platform 11 through a group of support seats 21. The rear end of the screw 2 is connected to the coupling 3 and the motor 4. The front part of the screw 2 is installed with an anti-backlash nut 5. The guide rail 6 is installed on one side of the screw 2. The slider 61 of the guide rail 6 is connected to the anti-backlash nut 5. The switching lens group 7 is coaxially arranged between the front fixed lens group 12 and the rear fixed lens group 13. The top of the switching lens group 7 is connected to the slider 61 through a matching block 71.
[0017] The slider 61 of the guide rail 6 is respectively connected to the anti-backlash nut 5 and the matching block 71 of the switching mirror group 7. The engagement of the anti-backlash nut 5 and the screw 2 has the ability to eliminate the engagement gap and self-lock. The anti-backlash nut 5 can enable the switching mirror group 7 to move precisely on the optical axis after the motor 4 drives the screw 2 to rotate, effectively adapting to the complex mechanical environment of vibration or impact, and avoiding the problem of out-of-focus in the field of view of the system of the traditional switching mirror group 7 structure under impact environment.
[0018] See Figure 1-3 A guide block 8 coaxial with the main lens barrel 1 is provided on the bottom wall of the main lens barrel 1, and a correction guide groove 8 is provided at the bottom of the switching lens group 7 to slide with the guide block 9, which can avoid radial deviation of the switching lens group 7 under impact environment and ensure stable movement of the switching lens group 7.
[0019] See Figure 1-3 The correction guide groove 8 is clearance-matched with the guide block 9. A ball 81 is installed in the correction guide groove 8 and is slidably installed with the guide block 9, which can reduce sliding resistance and wear and make the movement of the switching mirror group 7 efficient and stable.
[0020] Working process:
[0021] The starting motor 4 drives the coupling 3 and the screw 2 to rotate, and the anti-backlash nut 5 moves linearly on the screw 2 to drive the slider 61 of the guide rail 6 to move. The slider 61 drives the switching lens group 7 to move on the optical axis along the guide block 9 in the main lens barrel 1 to realize the field of view switching.
