[0044] Embodiment 2,

[0045] The following is a specific structure description of the zoom mechanism 2. The driving part includes:

[0046] A zoom knob 23 with a through cavity through both ends, the outer peripheral surface of which is provided with an external thread, which cooperates with the internal thread 11. By rotating the zoom knob 23, the zoom knob 23 can be moved along the length direction of the inner cavity of the barrel shell 1;

[0047] A zoom transmission rod 28 connected to the first end of the zoom knob 23 and capable of rotating the zoom knob 23 when the zoom transmission rod 28 is rotated;

[0048] A zoom movable lens seat 24, the first end of which is rotatably connected to the second end of the zoom knob 23 and can move synchronously with the zoom knob 23. The zoom movable lens seat 24 extends to the active cavity through the gaps on both sides, and fixes the zoomable lens part at the second end of the active cavity.

[0049] A plurality of recessed clamping grooves 22 and a first circular groove are arranged at the first end port of the zoom knob 23. The first end surface of the zoom transmission rod 28 is provided with a plurality of first drum surfaces 283 which are one-to-one matched with the plurality of clamping grooves 22. The first circular groove is embedded with a first clamping ring 21 to prevent the first end of the zoom transmission rod 28 from being separated from the first end port of the zoom knob 23.

[0050] A step is formed on the inner side of the second end port of the zoom knob 23. The first end of the zoom movable lens mount 24 is provided with a post that can enter the second end port of the zoom knob 23. The side circumferential surface of the post is provided with a second circular groove 241. The second circular groove 241 is fitted with a second retaining ring 27 to prevent the post from disengaging from the zoom knob 23.

[0051] The first end of the zoomable lens mount 24 is a "T"-shaped structure composed of a circular plate and a post. The side edge of the circular plate is connected to two symmetrical side plates 242. The two symmetrical side plates 242 can pass through the gaps on both sides and connect to the second end of the zoomable lens mount 24. The second end of the zoomable lens mount 24 is a ring structure. The inner ring 244 of the ring fixes the adjustable lens part. The outer ring circumference is provided with a third circular groove 243. The third circular groove 243 is fitted with an "O" ring 26.

[0052] The first edge of the zoom LD mount 41 is connected to two symmetrical arc panels 411. The second end of the zoom LD mount 41, which extends from the two symmetrical arc panels 411 toward the lens assembly 3, is provided with an external thread section 412. The external thread section 412 is screwed into the internal thread section to fix the zoom LD mount 41 to the zoom fixed lens mount 31.

[0053] Example 3:

[0054] Based on the descriptions of the zoom laser irradiation module structures in Examples 1 and 2, the following describes the operation of the zoom laser irradiation module:

[0055] like Figures 1-8 As shown, the two ends of the zoom transmission rod 28 have the same structure, both being drum-shaped structures. The first end of the zoom transmission rod 28 is provided with multiple first drum surfaces 283, and the second end is provided with multiple second drum surfaces 281. The first end and the second end of the zoom transmission rod 28 are connected by a connecting rod 282.

[0056] Rotate the zoom transmission rod 28 clockwise, and the zoom transmission rod 28 will drive the zoom knob 23 to rotate. Since the zoom knob 23 is threadedly connected to the internal thread 11, the zoom knob 23 moves toward the light source 42.

[0057] The zoom knob 23 is rotatably connected to the zoom movable lens mount 24. The zoom knob 23 pushes the zoom movable lens mount 24 to move towards the zoom plano-convex lens 32. Since the light source 42 and the zoom plano-convex lens 32 are both fixed in position, the zoom plano-concave lens 25 on the zoom movable lens mount 24 moves closer to the zoom plano-convex lens 32, thereby changing the direction of light propagation.

[0058] When the zoom transmission rod 28 is rotated counterclockwise, the zooming flat concave lens 25 moves away from the zooming flat convex lens 32, the direction of light propagation is changed, and the focusing purpose is achieved.

[0059] In conclusion, the zooming laser irradiation module is screwed with the barrel shell through the zooming mechanism, the adjustable focusing lens part can move in the movable cavity, the zooming transmission rod extends out of the barrel shell as a manual part, and power driving is not needed, so that cost is saved. The zooming laser irradiation module is screwed with the barrel shell through the zooming mechanism, and the focusing precision is high. The zooming mechanism and the light source assembly adopt the staggered distribution structure, which is simple and convenient to disassemble and assemble.
