Abstract

A head-mounted display device, comprising a holder, a lens barrel assembly provided on the holder, and an adjusting device. The lens barrel assembly comprises a lens barrel, a display module provided in the lens barrel, and an optical lens group provided at one end of the lens barrel, wherein the optical lens group comprises at least one optical lens. The adjusting device comprises a driving device provided on the holder, a support provided in the lens barrel and fixedly connected to the display module, and a transmission device. The transmission device is configured to be capable of driving the support to do a reciprocating linear motion under a driving of the driving device, so that the display module is close to or away from the optical lens group.
