Abstract:
The optical module includes a sensing member, a main body and an adjustable mechanism. The sensing member includes an optical sensor. The main body guides an external light beam into the optical sensor. The adjustable mechanism is disposed at first edges of the sensing member and the main body for combining the sensing member with the main body and adjusting the relative distance or angle between the optical sensor and the external light beam. The adjustable mechanism includes a first adjustable element and a second adjustable element. The unit adjustable amount of the adjustable mechanism is equal to a difference between a first unit displacement of the first adjustable element and a second unit displacement of the second adjustable element.

Abstract:
A mounting array for a planar photo-sensitive imaging CCPD disposed in a camera and adapted to facilitate both position-adjustment and securement of the CCPD in five senses, i.e. Left/Right, up/down, in/out, pitch angle and red angle; third array comprising a planar circuit board for receiving and carrying the CCPD; a pair of like threaded posts projected from the camera to penetrate through respective oversized holes in the board; two pairs of front/rear washers each adapted to adjustably affix the board on a respective post and so facilitate Left/Right, up/down and roll angle adjustment of the board in the oversized holes; the washer means also facilitating in/out adjustment of the board and, by differential-adjustment between both washer pairs further facilitating pitch angle adjustment.

Abstract:
A four-direction adjustable optical module including a carriage and a CCD module is disclosed. The carriage includes a coupling window for coupling with the CCD module. Each of the two sides of the CCD module includes a screw hole and an elastic device. The elastic device slightly protrudes from the surface of the coupling window. While the CCD module and the coupling window are coupled, screws are employed to screw through the CCD module and into the screw holes of the coupling windows. Therefore, the elastic devices deform by the stress from the CCD module. By adjusting the tightness of the screws, the orientation of the CCD module rotating on the Z axis can be calibrated. Thus, the adjustable optical module of the invention can be calibrated at least in four directions.
