Patent ID: 8619376

Claim:
A lens support frame comprising: an annular body portion; a large-diameter-lens holding groove which is formed as an annular groove on an inner peripheral surface of said annular body portion, an end of said large-diameter-lens holding groove on one side in an axial direction, of said annular body portion, being open; a small-diameter-lens holding groove which is smaller in diameter than said large-diameter-lens holding groove and formed as an annular groove on an inner peripheral surface of said annular body portion at a position closer to the other side in said axial direction of said annular body portion than said large-diameter-lens holding groove, an end of said small-diameter-lens holding groove on said one side in said axial direction, of said annular body portion, being open; a large-diameter-groove lens-bonding depression which is formed on an inner peripheral surface of said large-diameter-lens holding groove and allows an adhesive which is to be adhered to an outer peripheral surface of a large-diameter lens element, which is fitted into said large-diameter-lens holding groove, to be injected into said large-diameter-groove lens-bonding depression through an end opening thereof on said one side; and a small-diameter-groove lens-bonding depression which is formed on an inner peripheral surface of said small-diameter-lens holding groove and allows an adhesive which is to be adhered to an outer peripheral surface of a small-diameter lens element, which is fitted into said small-diameter-lens holding groove, to be injected into said small-diameter-groove lens-bonding depression through an end opening thereof on said one side, said end opening of said small-diameter-groove lens-bonding depression being communicatively connected with said large-diameter-groove lens-bonding depression, wherein a circumferential position of said large-diameter-groove lens-bonding depression and a circumferential position of said small-diameter-groove lens-bonding depression are mutually different as viewed in said axial direction.
