Optical Lens Fixing Structure with Interlocking Barrel and Element

The fixing structure is segmented into multiple functional portions: a blocking portion that prevents lateral movement, a stopping portion that prevents axial movement, and a retaining portion that provides additional mechanical retention. This segmentation allows each portion to address specific displacement directions independently, significantly improving reliability against external forces while maintaining assembly simplicity.

The fixing structure acts as an intermediary mechanical element between the optical lens and the barrel. Instead of relying solely on adhesive bonding, this intermediate structure provides direct mechanical support and constraint, transferring and distributing external forces away from the adhesive joint, thereby preventing lens displacement and angle shift.

The fixing structure is pre-installed in the barrel before the optical lens is mounted. This preliminary action creates a ready-made mechanical constraint system that immediately prevents displacement upon lens installation, eliminating the need to wait for adhesive curing while ensuring stability under impact from the outset.

The patent replaces the chemical bonding mechanism (adhesive curing) with a mechanical constraint system consisting of blocking, stopping, and retaining portions. This substitution eliminates the curing time requirement entirely, as the mechanical structure provides immediate retention, while simultaneously improving stability under impact through direct force distribution.
