Abstract

A stiffened lens mount with an outer mount ring having an axis of symmetry, an inner mount ring arranged coaxial to the outer mount ring and connection structures. The inner mount ring has at least one end face arranged perpendicular to the axis of symmetry, and a coaxially arranged stiffening ring fixedly connected to the inner mount ring via the at least one end face along an imaginary circle.

Claims (8)

1. A stiffened lens mount comprising: an outer mount ring having an axis of symmetry; an inner mount ring which is arranged coaxial to the outer mount ring and has one or two end faces arranged perpendicular to the axis of symmetry; and connection structures via which the inner mount ring is connected to the outer mount ring; one or two stiffening rings being arranged coaxial to the inner mount ring; said one or two stiffening rings being fixedly connected to the inner mount ring in each instance; via one of the respective end faces along an imaginary circle in each instance, at least one of the stiffening rings extending beyond a circumferential surface of a lens mounted in the inner mount ring at least partially overlapping the outer mount ring; and the one or two stiffening rings with their thickness having a greater radial dimension than the inner mount ring with its thickness.

2. The stiffened lens mount according to claim 1 , wherein the one or two end faces have a radial dimension which is only large enough in each instance to be sufficient for a connection to the one or two stiffening rings so that the one or two stiffening rings only contact the inner mount ring in each instance via the connection.

3. The stiffened lens mount according to claim 2 , wherein the one or two stiffening rings are formed in each instance by an individual ring or a ring stack.

4. The stiffened lens mount according to claim 1 , wherein the lens mount has exactly two stiffening rings, and the imaginary circles along which the two stiffening rings are connected to the inner mount ring in each instance have an identical radius.

5. The stiffened lens mount according to claim 4 , wherein the one or two stiffening rings are formed in each instance by an individual ring or a ring stack.

6. The stiffened lens mount according to claim 4 , wherein the two stiffening rings are dimensioned and arranged in such a way that they make the same contribution an opposing sides to the area moment of inertia of the inner mount ring.

7. The stiffened lens mount according to claim 1 , wherein the one or two stiffening rings are formed in each instance by an individual ring or a ring stack.

8. The stiffened lens mount according to claim 7 , wherein the two stiffening rings are dimensioned and arranged in such a way that they make the same contribution an opposing sides to the area moment of inertia of the inner mount ring.
