[0007] A microscope tube is fitted onto the tube frame, one end of which is connected to the tube frame, and the axis of the microscope tube coincides with the axis of the tube frame.

[0008] Multiple support rings are inserted into the tube frame from one side, and the multiple support rings abut against the inner wall of the lens barrel, with the axis of the support rings coinciding with the axis of the tube frame;

[0009] Multiple lenses are respectively installed within multiple support rings;

[0010] The connecting seat is in the shape of a cylindrical tube. The connecting seat is connected to the other end of the lens barrel, and the axis of the connecting seat coincides with the axis of the lens barrel.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0012] At least two limiting strips are provided on the outer wall of the tube frame. The limiting strips are parallel to the axis of the tube frame. A limiting groove corresponding to the limiting strip is opened on the inner wall of the lens tube. The limiting strip is inserted into the corresponding limiting groove.

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0014] Both the end of the tube frame and the connecting seat are provided with connecting flanges, and the connecting flanges are connected to the end of the lens barrel by multiple bolts.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0031] Please see Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: an assembled infrared pyrotechnic lens, comprising:

[0032] Pipe rack 1, which is in the shape of a round tube;

[0033] The lens tube 2 is sleeved on the tube frame 1, one end of the lens tube 2 is connected to the tube frame 1, and the axis of the lens tube 2 coincides with the axis of the tube frame 1.

[0034] Multiple support rings 3 are inserted into the tube frame 1 from one side, and the multiple support rings 3 abut against the inner wall of the lens barrel 2, with the axis of the support ring 3 coinciding with the axis of the tube frame 1;

[0035] Multiple lenses 4 are respectively installed in multiple support rings 3;

[0036] The connecting seat 5 is in the shape of a round tube. The connecting seat 5 is connected to the other end of the lens barrel 2, and the axis of the connecting seat 5 coincides with the axis of the lens barrel 2.

[0037] At least two limiting strips 6 are provided on the outer wall of the tube frame 1. The limiting strips 6 are parallel to the axis of the tube frame 1. The inner wall of the lens barrel 2 is provided with a limiting groove 7 corresponding to the limiting strips 6. The limiting strips 6 are inserted into the corresponding limiting grooves 7. The limiting grooves 7 have a guiding and supporting function for the limiting strips 6, effectively limiting the degree of freedom of the tube frame 1 to rotate along its axis during the device process, which facilitates the rapid assembly between the tube frame 1 and the lens barrel 2.

[0038] Both the end of the tube frame 1 and the connecting seat 5 are provided with connecting flanges 8. The connecting flanges 8 are connected to the end of the lens barrel 2 by multiple bolts, which facilitates the quick assembly and installation between the tube frame 1, the lens barrel 2 and the connecting seat 5.

[0039] The side wall of the tube frame 1 is provided with a plurality of clearance slots 9 evenly arranged at equal intervals along a straight line. The inner wall of the tube frame 1 is provided with positioning slots 10 corresponding to the clearance slots 9. The support ring 3 is inserted into the clearance slots 9 and the positioning slots 10. The snap-fit ​​structure design between the support ring 3 and the tube frame 1 facilitates the quick installation and removal of the support ring 3 on the tube frame 1. This allows for the replacement of a single lens 4 without disassembling other lenses 4, improving the assembly efficiency of the infrared pyrotechnic lens and making the replacement of the lens 4 convenient.

[0040] The connector 5 is a threaded tube, which facilitates quick connection between the lens and the detector.

[0041] Working principle: First, during lens assembly, the lens element 4 is installed inside the support ring 3. According to the design requirements, the clearance groove 9 corresponding to the lens element 4 is located, and the support ring 3 is inserted into the clearance groove 9. Then, the support ring 3 is inserted into the positioning groove 10. Multiple lenses 4 are installed in sequence. Next, the limiting strip 6 on the tube frame 1 is aligned with the limiting groove 7 inside the lens barrel 2 and inserted. The connecting flange 8 on the tube frame 1 abuts against the end of the lens barrel 2, and the connecting flange 8 and the lens barrel 2 are fixed with bolts. At this time, the support ring 3 abuts against the inner wall of the lens barrel 2 to prevent the support ring 3 from moving on the tube frame 1. Then, the connecting flange 8 on the connecting seat 5 abuts against the end of the lens barrel 2, and the connecting flange 8 and the lens barrel 2 are fixed with bolts, completing the overall assembly of the lens. Finally, if a lens element 4 needs maintenance or replacement, simply loosen the bolts and remove the entire tube frame 1 from the lens barrel 2. Pull out the support ring 3 corresponding to the lens element 4 from the positioning groove 10 and the clearance groove 9, and then replace the lens element 4.
