Abstract
A mounting structure includes a fixing plate to which an image pick-up device is fixed; screw holes formed on a supporting member; a first female threaded portion and a second female threaded portion having a smaller diameter than the first female threaded portion, formed in each screw hole; cylindrical adjustment members which are screwed into the screw holes, respectively, and are rotatable to adjust the axial position thereof; and set screws which are rotatably inserted through the fixing plate and respective axial holes of the cylindrical adjustment members to be engaged with the second female threaded portions of the screw holes to hold the fixing plate between each head portion of the set screws and each cylindrical adjustment member, respectively.
Claims12
A mounting structure for mounting an image pick-up device on a supporting member in such a manner that a mounting angle of said image pick-up device is adjustable with respect to said supporting member, said mounting structure comprising:
- a fixing plate to which said image pick-up device is fixed;
- a plurality of screw holes formed on said supporting member on the fixing plate side;
- a first female threaded portion and a second female threaded portion, having a diameter smaller than a diameter of said first female threaded portion, which are formed in each said plurality of screw holes in that order from the fixing plate side;
- a plurality of cylindrical adjustment members which are screwed into said plurality of screw holes, respectively, each said plurality of cylindrical adjustment members having a male threaded portion, which is engaged with corresponding said first female threaded portion and an axial hole, said cylindrical members being rotatable to adjust the axial position thereof;
- and
- a plurality of set screws which are rotatably inserted through said fixing plate and said respective axial holes of said plurality of cylindrical adjustment members to be engaged with said second female threaded portions of said plurality of screw holes to hold said fixing plate between each head portion of said plurality of set screws and each said plurality of cylindrical adjustment members, respectively.
A mounting structure for mounting an image pick-up device on a supporting member in such a manner that a mounting angle of said image pick-up device is adjustable with respect to said supporting member, said mounting structure comprising:
- a fixing plate to which said image pick-up device is fixed;
- three screw holes formed on said supporting member to extend in a direction substantially orthogonal to a sensitive surface of said image pick-up device, a large-diameter female threaded portion and a small-diameter female threaded portion being formed in each of said three screw holes in that order from the fixing plate side;
- three cylindrical adjustment members which are screwed into said three screw holes, respectively, each said three cylindrical adjustment members having a male threaded portion which is engaged with corresponding said large-diameter female threaded portion so that a position of each of said three cylindrical adjustment members can be adjusted with respect to said supporting member by rotating said each of said three cylindrical adjustment members;
- and
- three set screws which are inserted through said fixing plate and respective axial holes of said three cylindrical adjustment members to be engaged with said small-diameter female threaded portions of said three screw holes to hold said fixing plate between head portions of said three set screws and said three cylindrical adjustment members, respectively.
