[0028] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a variable aperture with adjustable angles for adjacent aperture stops includes an angle-adjustable variable aperture assembly 1. A drive ring 101 is provided on the upper side of the angle-adjustable variable aperture assembly 1, and a track groove 105 is provided on the inner side of the drive ring 101. A fixing seat 103 is provided on the lower side of the drive ring 101. Positioning holes 104 are respectively opened around the inner side of the fixing seat 103. A rotating pin 107 is embedded in the inner wall of the positioning hole 104. An aperture blade 102 is provided on one side of the rotating pin 107, and a sliding pin 106 is provided on the other side of the aperture blade 102. The outer wall of the sliding pin 106 is embedded in the inner wall of the track groove 105 provided in the drive ring 101.

[0029] Please see the appendix Figure 1 AppendixFigure 3 Appendix Figure 4 and attached Figure 5 As shown, the sliding pin 106 is fixedly connected to the aperture blade 102, the rotating pin 107 is fixedly connected to the aperture blade 102, the sliding pin 106 is slidably connected to the track groove 105, the rotating pin 107 is rotatably connected to the positioning hole 104, the drive ring 101 is detachably installed to the fixed base 103, the number of positioning holes 104 is the same as the number of aperture blades 102, and the number of track grooves 105 is the same as the number of aperture blades 102.

[0030] Among them, the fixed base 103 is the main body supporting the variable aperture, and the positioning holes 104 provided on it are evenly distributed in an array around the axis of the fixed base 103.

[0031] The track grooves 105 provided in the drive ring 101 are evenly distributed in an array around the axis of the drive ring 101.

[0032] Among them, several sets of aperture blades 102 are driven to move along the track groove 105 by rotation. The aperture blades 102 are made of metal or non-metal opaque material, and their inner edges are through a designed curve with a cylindrical structure.

[0033] The working process of this utility model is as follows: Using the variable aperture designed in this scheme, adjacent aperture positions can be adjusted at equal angles.
