Specifically,
[0041] The limiting grooves 121 are provided in three sets, evenly distributed in an equilateral triangle, for installing the emitting lens 11 and limiting it within the emitting support assembly 12.

[0042] The first dispensing groove 122 has three sets, which are staggered among the three sets of limiting grooves 121. It is used to dispense and fix the emitting lens 11 installed in the limiting groove into the emitting support assembly 12. The design of the first dispensing groove 122 makes the dispensing operation between the emitting support assembly 12 and the emitting lens 11 more convenient during production.

[0043] The emitting light source chip limiting slot 131 is rectangular in design and is used to install the emitting light source chip 13. The rectangular design of the emitting light source chip limiting slot 131 matches the shape of the emitting light source chip 13, ensuring that the emitting light source chip 13 can be accurately positioned and installed in the emitting support assembly 12.
[0044] The mounting slot 141 for the emitting light source circuit board is circular, with a diameter larger than that of the emitting light source chip limiting slot 131. It is used to mount the emitting light source circuit board 14 below the emitting light source chip 13. The circular design of the mounting slot 141 matches the shape of the emitting light source circuit board 14, ensuring that the emitting light source circuit board 14 can be securely mounted in the emitting support assembly 12 and form a good electrical connection with the emitting light source chip 13.
[0045] The light-transmitting aperture 123 is circular and located at the center of the emitting support assembly 12. Its diameter is less than or equal to the limiting groove 131 of the emitting light source chip, and it is used to allow the emitted light beam to pass through. The design of the light-transmitting aperture 123 ensures that the light beam emitted by the emitting light source chip 13 can pass smoothly through the emitting support assembly 12 and be focused and emitted by the emitting lens 11.
[0046] The positioning hole 124 is disposed on one side of the transmitting support assembly 12 for the transmitting light source flexible circuit board 15 to pass through, thereby limiting the position of the transmitting light source flexible circuit board 15. The design of the positioning hole 124 allows the transmitting light source flexible circuit board 15 to pass through the transmitting support assembly 12 along a predetermined path, while also limiting the position of the transmitting light source flexible circuit board 15 to prevent displacement or damage during use.
[0047] As one embodiment of this application, such as Figure 6 and Figure 2 As shown, the transmitting support assembly 12 further includes: a limiting groove and a first dispensing groove 122 disposed on the upper end face of the transmitting support assembly 12, and a transmitting light source chip limiting groove 131 and a transmitting light source circuit board mounting groove 141 disposed on the lower end face of the transmitting support assembly 12; wherein, the upper end face and the lower end face of the transmitting support assembly 12 are separated by a light-transmitting hole 123, with the upper end face of the transmitting support assembly 12 above the light-transmitting hole 123 and the lower end face of the transmitting support assembly 12 below the light-transmitting hole 123. The diameter of the upper end face of the transmitting support assembly 12 is larger than the diameter of the lower end face of the transmitting support assembly 12, and the transmitting support assembly 12 has a draft characteristic of being larger at the top and smaller at the bottom. This embodiment, by designing the transmitting support assembly 12 as a tapered design that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, reduces the area occupied by the effective light-transmitting surface, while facilitating the mold processing and product demolding of the transmitting support assembly 12, making the overall structure more compact and improving space utilization.
[0048] As one embodiment of this application, a launching device is provided. For example...

During the installation process of the flexible circuit board 15, the flexible circuit board 15 of the emitting light source is first connected to the circuit board 14 of the emitting light source, and then the flexible circuit board 15 of the emitting light source is passed through the positioning hole 124 of the emitting support assembly 12, so that it can be connected to the external circuit according to a predetermined path. At the same time, the positioning hole 124 limits the flexible circuit board 15 of the emitting light source to prevent it from being displaced or damaged during use.

The design of the circuit board limiting ribs 125 enables the emitting light source circuit board 14 to be accurately positioned and installed in the emitting support assembly 12. At the same time, the interference fit ensures a more secure connection between the emitting light source circuit board 14 and the emitting support assembly 12, improving the stability of the overall structure.
[0054] In one embodiment of this application, a light-shielding layer is coated on the bottom of the emitting light source circuit board 14. The light-shielding layer may be, but is not limited to, a light-blocking paint layer or a physical light-shielding plate. The design of the light-shielding layer can effectively prevent light leakage from the bottom of the emitting light source circuit board 14 and prevent it from interfering with the receiving device, thereby improving the light utilization rate and avoiding stray light interference with other components, thus improving the overall performance.
