Abstract:
The present invention relates to a camera housing/lens system comprising a camera housing for a camera and a lens. The camera housing/lens system further comprises a lock for locking the lens in position. According to the invention, the lock includes a stop member joined to the lens or the lens mount, and an elastic element arranged between the stop member and the lens mount or between the stop member and the lens, wherein the elastic element is compressed between the stop member and the lens mount or between the stop member and the lens to lock the lens in position. A gap remains between the stop member and the lens mount or between the stop member and the lens. This “elastic compression” allows the position of the lens to be finely adjusted in relation to the lens mount, without having to release the compression in order to do so.

Claim (Index 16):
A camera housing/lens system, comprising:\n a camera housing for a camera and a lens having a longitudinal lens axis, the camera housing further comprising a lens mount for attaching the lens, the lens mount including a connecting thread and the lens including a lens thread, wherein the connecting thread and the lens thread engage when the lens is attached, whereby a position of the lens along the longitudinal lens axis in relation to the lens mount can be set by turning the lens relative to the lens mount; and a lock for locking the lens in position; wherein the lock includes a stop member joined to the lens or the lens mount, and an elastic element arranged between the stop member and the lens mount or between the stop member and the lens, wherein the elastic element is compressed between the stop member and the lens mount or between the stop member and the lens to lock the lens in position, wherein a gap remains between the stop member and the lens mount or between the stop member and the lens.
