[0034] The bottom of the main body 1 is provided with a mounting groove 11 for embedding the light module, and the bottom of the main body 1 is further fixed with a pair of clamping blocks one 3 and a pair of clamping blocks two 4, and the clamping blocks one 3 and the clamping blocks two 4 are respectively located at the front and rear ends of the mounting groove 11. The two clamping blocks one 3 are used for clamping the two sides of the front end of the light module, and the two clamping blocks two 4 are used for clamping the two sides of the rear end of the light module.

[0035] The clamping blocks two 4 of the embodiment are integrally fixed with the main body 1, and the clamping blocks two 4 and the main body 1 cannot be separated.

[0036] The distance between the two clamping blocks one 3 and the distance between the two clamping blocks two 4 correspond to the width dimension of the light module, the light module is clamped in a clamping manner, the light module can be reliably clamped by the clamping blocks one 3 and the clamping blocks two 4 after entering the mounting groove 11, and the light module cannot fall off spontaneously.

[0037] The top surface of the main body 1 is provided with a hollow groove 12, and the lower end of the hollow groove 12 penetrates into the mounting groove 11. Through the hollow groove 12, on the one hand, the top surface position of the light module can be observed by personnel, and on the other hand, when the light module is difficult to separate from the main body 1, the light module can be separated from the main body 1 by inserting fingers into the hollow groove 12.

[0038] The end of the main body 1 away from the handle 2 is provided with an inclined surface 13 which is inclined upward, and the inclined surface 13 makes the thickness of the end of the main body 1 taper, so that the front end of the main body 1 can enter a region with a smaller height, and the applicability is improved.

[0039] The implementation principle of the light module dismounting clamp of the embodiment is that the dismounting clamp is integrally formed, the surface is smooth and free of burrs, damage to the light module is avoided, and the mounting groove 11 can be used to insert and pull out the light module.

[0040] In use, the entire clamp is uniformly stressed, the handle 2 adapts to the shape of the hand, the holding is comfortable, whether the light module is inserted or pulled out, the force direction and the module moving mode are convenient to keep consistent, the smallest force can be used for operation, the moving distance can be accurately controlled, and the light module is prevented from losing control due to excessive force.

[0042] Embodiment two

[0043] With reference to Figure 3 The difference between the optical module dismounting clamp of the embodiment two and the embodiment one is that the clamping blocks two 4 are not fixed integrally with the main body 1, the connecting block 41 is fixed between the two clamping blocks two 4, the connecting block 41 is provided with the fixed bolts 42, and the fixed bolts 42 are threadedly connected with the main body 1. The surface of the connecting block 41 is provided with the countersunk holes 43 for embedding the heads of the fixed bolts 42, and the fixed bolts 42 are provided with at least two.

[0044] The implementation principle of the embodiment two is that the combination of the clamping blocks two 4 and the connecting block 41 can be dismounted from the main body 1 through the fixed bolts 42.

[0048] The clamping blocks two 4 and the main body 1 of the present embodiment are still fixed integrally.

[0049] The implementation principle of the embodiment three is that even if the same optical module, the width size also has a tolerance. When the optical module is too wide due to the shape tolerance, the two clamping blocks two 4 are deformed in the direction away from each other through the arrangement of the adjustment gap 5, and the applicability of clamping the optical module is improved.

[0050] When the clamping block two 4 is excessively worn to cause clamping of the optical module, or the optical module is short in width due to the shape tolerance, the adjusting screw 51 can be tightened to move the adjusting screw 51 to the direction of the clamping block two 4 through the threaded connection, so as to extrude the clamping block two 4, and the spacing between the two clamping block two 4 can still adapt to the optical module.

[0051] The above are preferred embodiments of the present application, and do not limit the protection scope of the present application, so that: any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, principle of the present application should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
