[0038] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, according to the embodiment of the present invention, a multi-terminal Newtonian reflecting telescope system 100 is proposed. The multi-terminal Newtonian reflecting telescope system 100 includes a mirror body 10, an adjustment component 20 and an optical component. An optical channel 11 is provided in the mirror body 10. The optical channel 11 is coaxially arranged with the mirror body 10. A plurality of mounting seats 40 are provided on the circumferential side wall of the mirror body 10. The mounting seats 40 are used to install the photographic terminal 200. The mounting seats 40 are provided with a connecting channel, which is used to guide the light in the optical channel 11 to the photographic terminal 200. The adjustment component 20 It is arranged in the optical channel 11 and includes a bracket 22, a base 23, a first adjustment mechanism 21 and a second adjustment mechanism 24. The base 23 is arranged on the bracket 22, and the second adjustment mechanism 24 is arranged on the base 23. The bracket 22 is connected to the mirror body 10 through the first adjustment mechanism 21. The first adjustment mechanism 21 is used to adjust the position of the bracket 22. The optical component includes a secondary mirror 30, which is connected to the second adjustment mechanism 24. The second adjustment mechanism 24 is used to adjust the position of the secondary mirror 30 so that the light reflected by the secondary mirror 30 is projected onto the connecting channel of any mounting seat 40.

[0039] According to the multi-terminal Newtonian reflecting telescope system 100 of the present invention, a photographic terminal 200 can be installed on each mounting seat 40. When a different photographic terminal 200 needs to be selected for shooting, the position of the secondary mirror 30 is adjusted by adjusting the second adjustment mechanism 24, so that the secondary mirror 30 projects light into the connecting channel of the mounting seat 40 of the photographic terminal 200 to be photographed, thereby realizing shooting of the photographic terminal 200.

[0040] The multi-terminal Newtonian reflecting telescope system 100 can simultaneously install multiple photographic terminals 200 and adjust the projection direction of the secondary mirror 30 through the second adjustment mechanism 24 to meet shooting requirements, thereby increasing the use range of the Newtonian reflecting telescope.

[0041] It should be understood that when the multi-terminal Newtonian reflecting telescope system 100 is in use, light enters the optical channel 11 and propagates along the optical channel 11. The secondary mirror 30 has a reflecting surface, which reflects the light in the optical channel 11, thereby changing the propagation direction of the light. The position of the secondary mirror 30 is adjusted by the second adjustment mechanism 24, so that the pipeline reflected by the secondary mirror 30 is projected into the connecting channel of the mounting seat 40 at the desired position and is captured by the photographic terminal 200 installed on the connecting channel, thereby meeting the shooting requirements.

[0042] In addition, the photography terminal 200 in the present application includes but is not limited to a deep space photography terminal 200, a planetary photography terminal 200, an asteroid photography terminal 200, and a comet photography terminal 200, etc.

[0043] In addition, the first adjustment mechanism 21 can adjust the bracket 22, the base 23 is set on the bracket 22, the second adjustment mechanism 24 is set on the base 23, and the secondary mirror 30 is set on the second adjustment mechanism 24. When the first adjustment mechanism 21 adjusts the position of the bracket 22, it can indirectly adjust the position of the secondary mirror 30 so that the light reflected by the secondary mirror 30 meets the shooting requirements of the photographic terminal 200.

[0044] In some embodiments of the present invention, there are four mounting seats 40, which are evenly spaced along the axial direction of the telescope body 10. By providing four mounting seats 40, the requirements of four photography terminals 200 for simultaneous shooting can be met, thereby expanding the scope of use of the Newtonian reflecting telescope system.

[0045] In some embodiments of the present invention, the first adjustment mechanism 21 includes a fixed frame 212 and a plurality of first drive motors 211. The fixed frame 212 is mounted on the mirror body 10. The plurality of first drive motors 211 are respectively mounted on the fixed frame 212 and are arranged at equal intervals along the circumference of the optical channel 11. Each first drive motor 211 is respectively connected to the bracket 22 in a transmission manner.

[0046] Specifically, the fixing frame 212 is fixedly mounted on the mirror body 10, and multiple first drive motors 211 are respectively mounted on the fixing frame 212 and are respectively connected to the bracket 22 for transmission. By setting multiple first drive motors 211 and driving the bracket 22 by the multiple first drive motors 211, the position of the bracket 22 is adjusted, and then the position of the secondary mirror 30 is adjusted by changing the position of the bracket 22.

[0047] It should be noted that the fixing frame 212 is fixed to the mirror body 10 , and the fixing methods include but are not limited to welding, clamping or connection via fasteners.

[0048] In addition, the plurality of first driving motors 211 may drive the bracket 22 simultaneously, or may drive the bracket 22 only.

[0049] In addition, in the present application, the first driving motor 211 is a stepping motor, which is easy to control and can effectively improve the adjustment accuracy.

[0050] In some embodiments of the present invention, the first adjustment mechanism 21 also includes a transmission member 213, each first drive motor 211 is connected to the bracket 22 through a transmission member 213, the transmission member 213 includes a screw 2131 and a connecting seat 2132, the connecting seat 2132 is fixed on the bracket 22, one end of the screw 2131 is connected to the rotating shaft of the first drive motor 211, the screw 2131 passes through the threaded hole of the connecting seat 2132, and the screw 2131 is threadedly engaged with the threaded hole.

[0051] Specifically, the connecting base 2132 is fixed to the bracket 22. A threaded hole is defined in the connecting base 2132, and the screw 2131 is inserted into and threadedly connected to the threaded hole. By controlling the forward or reverse rotation of the first drive motor 211, the connecting base 2132 is driven toward or away from the fixing bracket 212, thereby driving the bracket 22 toward or away from the fixing bracket 212 to adjust the position of the secondary mirror 30. This simple structure and high control precision can effectively improve the accuracy of adjustment.

[0052] In some embodiments of the present invention, the number of the first driving motors 211 is three.

[0053] Specifically, by setting the number of the first driving motors 211 to three, the position of the secondary mirror 30 can be adjusted in multiple ways through the three first driving motors 211 , thereby meeting the use requirements of the photographic terminal 200 .

[0054] It should be noted that in this application, the first drive motor 211 can be remotely controlled. By remotely manipulating the actuation of multiple stepper motors, precise control of the inclination, elevation, and radial angle of the telescope's secondary mirror 30 is achieved, as well as precise control of the inclination and elevation of the telescope's primary mirror. This allows for remote control of the telescope for astronomical photography using different imaging terminals 200, and for optical axis calibration of the telescope for different imaging devices.

[0055] In some embodiments of the present invention, the second adjustment mechanism 24 includes a second drive motor 241, which is arranged on the base 23, and the rotating shaft of the second drive motor 241 is transmission-connected to the secondary mirror 30, and the second drive motor 241 is at least used to adjust the reflection direction of the secondary mirror 30.

[0056] Specifically, the first driving motor 211 is connected to the secondary mirror 30 in a transmission manner. Driven by the second motor, the secondary mirror 30 can move in the optical channel 11, thereby adjusting the position of the reflecting surface, and further making the reflecting surface meet the shooting requirements of the photographic terminal 200.

[0057] It should be pointed out that the second drive motor 241 can be directly connected to the secondary mirror 30. Under the drive of the second drive motor 241, the position of the secondary mirror 30 changes. The second drive motor 241 can also be indirectly connected to the secondary mirror 30, that is, the second drive motor 241 is connected to the secondary mirror 30 through a transmission system. The transmission system drives the secondary mirror 30 not only to rotate around the axis of the optical channel 11, but also to flip relative to the axis of the optical channel 11 to achieve adjustment of the direction of the secondary mirror 30.

[0058] It should be noted that the second drive motor 241 is a stepping motor with harmonic deceleration.

[0059] In some embodiments of the present invention, the mounting base 40 includes a first barrel 42 and a second barrel 43. The first barrel 42 is fixed on the outer surface of the lens body 10. The second barrel 43 is inserted into the first barrel 42 and can move axially relative to the first barrel 42. The second barrel and the first barrel 42 constitute a connecting channel. The photographic terminal 200 is arranged on the second barrel 43, and the lens of the photographic terminal 200 is coaxially arranged with the second barrel 43.

[0060] By setting the first barrel 42 and the second barrel 43 and adjusting the relative position of the second barrel 43 and the first barrel 42 in the axial direction of the first barrel 42, the focal length of the photographic terminal 200 can be adjusted, thereby meeting the shooting requirements of the photographic terminal 200.

[0061] In some embodiments of the present invention, the mounting base 40 further includes an adjusting member 41, which is rotatably disposed on the first barrel 42 and is in transmission connection with the second barrel 43. The adjusting member 41 rotates relative to the first barrel 42 to adjust the position of the second barrel 43 relative to the first barrel 42 in the axial direction of the first barrel 42. The provision of the adjusting member 41 improves the convenience of adjusting the position of the second barrel 43 relative to the first barrel 42, thereby improving the convenience of use.

[0062] It should be pointed out that a gear structure is provided on the outer circumferential surface of the adjusting member 41, and a rack structure is provided on the outer surface of the second cylinder 43. The gear structure is meshed with the rack structure. By rotating the adjusting member 41 and utilizing the gear structure to drive the rack structure, the position of the second cylinder 43 is adjusted, thereby improving the accuracy of position adjustment.

[0063] In some embodiments of the present invention, a first guide structure is provided on the inner wall of the first barrel 42, and a second guide structure is provided on the outer wall of the second barrel 43. The first guide structure cooperates with the second guide structure to guide the movement of the second barrel 43 relative to the first barrel 42 in the axial direction of the first barrel 42. The provision of the guide structure improves the directionality during the adjustment process, thereby improving the adjustment accuracy, thereby ensuring the shooting effect of the camera terminal 200.

[0064] In some embodiments of the present invention, the first guide structure is a protrusion extending axially along the first barrel 42, and the second guide structure is a groove extending axially along the first barrel 42, with the protrusion slidably disposed within the groove. The further configuration of the first and second guide structures further enhances directionality during adjustment, thereby increasing adjustment accuracy and ensuring optimal photography performance of the camera terminal 200.
