[Operation and Effect] The movable frame (2) is biased by a tension spring (5) provided at a position separated from the adjusting screw (4). Conventionally, as described above, since one end of the compression spring (9) is in contact with the back surface of the adjustment plate (91), when adjusting the movable frame (2) in the left-right direction, the compression spring (9) is adjusted. Board (91)
Is rubbed, causing a sliding load, making it difficult to adjust. Anyway,
In the present invention, since the compression spring (9) and the adjusting plate (91) do not rub as in the related art, difficulty in adjustment can be reduced. Furthermore, since the movable frame (2) and the fixed frame (1) are in contact with each other, the movable frame (2) slides in the up, down, left, right, and rotation directions while being in contact with the fixed frame (1). Therefore, at the time of adjustment, the movable frame (2)
Does not swing in the optical axis direction, and the adjustment work can be performed stably.

The movable frame (2) is biased by a tension spring (5) provided at a position separated from the adjusting screw (4). Conventionally, as described above, one end of the compression spring (9) is
Since it is in contact with the back surface of the adjusting plate (91), when adjusting the movable frame (2) in the left-right direction, the compression spring (9) and the adjusting plate (91) are rubbed, resulting in a sliding load. No. However, in the present embodiment, the compression spring (9) and the adjusting plate (91) do not rub as in the prior art, so that the difficulty of adjustment can be reduced. The adjusting screws (4) and (4) are attached to both ends of the movable frame (2), and the distance between the adjusting screws (4) and (4) is long.
When one of the adjustment screws (4) is rotated, fine adjustment is easily performed. Further, since the movable frame (2) and the fixed frame (1) are in contact with each other, the movable frame (2) is in contact with the fixed frame (1), slides in the vertical and horizontal directions and the rotating direction, and moves in the front-rear direction. No adjustment run-out occurs. Therefore, the adjustment is stabilized. Also, eccentric shaft
(3) is located closer to the optical axis than the conventional adjustment mechanism, so that when the eccentric shaft (3) is rotated to slide the movable frame (2), It is possible to prevent the displacement of the sliding amount of the upper and lower ends from occurring. That is, if the eccentric shaft (3) is far away from the optical axis and separated upward, even if the eccentric shaft (3) is rotated, the movable frame (2) will rotate around the lower end, and A deviation may occur between the sliding amount of the upper end and the sliding amount of the lower end in (2). However, in the contents of the present embodiment, there is no such fear.
