Example one

Referring to fig. 1 to 2, a kaleidoscope disclosed in this embodiment includes a light tube 1, an object tube 2, a spacer 3, a lens barrel 4, a light shielding sheet 5, and an eye tube 6. The light tube 1, the object tube 2, the spacer 3, the lens tube 4, the shading sheet 5 and the mesh tube 6 are coaxially connected in sequence. The object cylinder 2 of the embodiment is a cylindrical cylinder, and six containing cavities are formed in the object cylinder 2, each containing cavity penetrates through the object cylinder 2 along the axial direction of the object cylinder 2, and the containing cavities are used for containing ornamental objects. And in the embodiment, each accommodating cavity is an equilateral triangular prism, that is, the edge angle of the accommodating cavity is 60 degrees, then six accommodating cavities are arranged around the axis of the object cylinder 2 at equal angular intervals, so that 360 degrees surround to form a whole. It will be readily understood that the shape, number and arrangement position of the containing cavities can be selected according to the actual needs, for example, six hexagonal prisms are arranged around the axis of the barrel 2 at equal angular intervals.

And the light tube 1 and the spacer 3 are respectively connected at two ends of the object tube 2, so that two ends of the accommodating cavity are closed, and the ornamental objects are prevented from falling out of the accommodating cavity. Specifically, a convex ring is formed at one end of the object cylinder 2 facing the light cylinder 1, an annular groove is formed on the end face of the light cylinder 1, and the convex ring can be embedded in the annular groove to enable the light cylinder 1 and the object cylinder 2 to form a whole. Six bulbs are arranged on the light tube 1, the six bulbs face the accommodating cavities in a one-to-one correspondence mode, and each bulb can light the corresponding accommodating cavity, so that the ornamental objects in the accommodating cavities can be seen easily. The outer circumference of the lamp tube 1 is flush with the outer circumference of the object tube 2, so that the surface of the product is flat. The spacer 3 is the same as the other end of the object cylinder 2 in size and shape, and the spacer 3 is made of transparent materials, so that the ornamental objects are prevented from falling off, and the observation effect is not influenced.

Further, the lens cone 4 is on one side that the spacer 3 deviates from the object cylinder 2, the spacer 3 is installed between the object cylinder 2 and the lens cone 4, the lens cone 4 is coaxially connected with one end of the object cylinder 2, six equilateral triangular prism-shaped imaging cavities are formed in the lens cone 4, the six equilateral triangular prism-shaped imaging cavities and the six equilateral triangular prism-shaped accommodating cavities are the same in size and are communicated in a one-to-one correspondence mode, namely, the six imaging cavities are arranged around the axis of the lens cone 4 at equal angular intervals. It is noted that the inner wall of each imaging cavity is a mirror surface, and the ornamental objects can be imaged to form flower-shaped patterns.

The light shielding sheet 5 of the present embodiment is installed at one end of the lens barrel 4 departing from the object barrel 2, six through holes are formed on the light shielding sheet 5, and the six through holes are communicated with the plurality of imaging cavities one to one, that is, the six through holes are arranged around the axis of the lens barrel 4 at equal angular intervals. The light-gathering effect of the through hole reduces the visual angle, when eyes are close to the through hole, light in the imaging cavity is mainly seen, the imaging cavity is not influenced by an external light source, and the imaging effect is obvious.

Furthermore, the kaleidoscope further comprises a mesh cylinder 6, the mesh cylinder 6 comprises a cylinder body 61, a first lens 62 and a second lens 63, one end of the cylinder body 61 is rotatably connected with one end of the lens barrel 4, which is far away from the object cylinder 2, and the light shielding sheet 5 is covered between the lens barrel 4 and the cylinder body 61.
