Imaging apparatus having bending optical element

摘要

A bending imaging apparatus provided with an imaging optical system, a bending optical element, an image sensor positioned on a post-bending optical axis of the bending optical element, and a housing, includes an inclination adjusting body having a mounting plate portion, onto which the image sensor is mounted, and an inclination-adjusting bent plate portion extending toward an underside of the bending optical element from the mounting plate portion; a swing pivot portion formed between the inclination-adjusting bent plate portion and the housing to pivotally support the inclination adjusting body; and an inclination adjusting portion positioned between the inclination-adjusting bent plate portion and the housing to overlap the bending optical element with respect to the post-bending optical axis direction and swings the inclination adjusting body about the swing pivot portion to adjust an inclination of the inclination adjusting body.

主权项

1. A bending imaging apparatus provided with an imaging optical system, a bending optical element which bends an object light bundle that emanates from said imaging optical system, an image sensor which is rectangular in a front view and positioned on a post-bending optical axis of said bending optical element, and a housing which supports said imaging optical system, said bending optical element and said image sensor, wherein said bending imaging apparatus comprises:
an inclination adjusting body which includes a mounting plate portion, onto which said image sensor is fixedly mounted, and an inclination-adjusting bent plate portion which extends toward an underside of said bending optical element from said mounting plate portion; a swing pivot portion which is provided between said mounting plate portion of said inclination adjusting body and said housing to pivotally support said inclination adjusting body; and an inclination adjusting portion which is positioned between said inclination-adjusting bent plate portion of said inclination adjusting body and said housing so as to overlap said bending optical element as viewed along said post-bending optical axis, wherein said inclination adjusting portion swings said inclination adjusting body about said swing pivot portion to adjust an inclination of said inclination adjusting body.
