Since the light emergent surface of the convex lens 4 is machined to a Fresnel surface (wave shape) by removing the part having no direct effect on the light of the light incident surface of the convex lens 4, the distance of the light going through the convex lens 4 is reduced, thus increasing the transmittance of the convex lens 4 and reducing the light loss.
  • a flat and straight connecting plate 41 penetrable to light is mounted between the circumference of the convex lens 4 and the support 5, wherein the connecting plate 41 is integrated with the convex lens 4 and the support 5 and is used as a buffer section between the convex lens 4 and the support 5 during injection molding for the convenience of glue feeding and drawing of patterns.

It is certain that, in some application fields, the present invention can also provide the structure shown in FIG. 12 , wherein the convex lens can move along the mirror in its axial direction, namely the axial displacement between them can be changed, so the shadow can be changed by changing the displacement and converting the light path; in this optical package, the mirror can be fixed as described above to let the convex les move relative to the mirror, or the convex lens can be fixed to let the mirror move relatively to the convex lens.
  • the positions of the installation socket 1, mirror 3 and convex lens 4 can be fixed, namely the axial positions of the mirror 3, convex lens 4 and installation socket 1 can be fixed.

  • FIGs. 13 , 14 and 15 show a torch having the optical package above, including an optical package shown in FIG. 1 , a light holder 7 and a sleeve head part 8, wherein the sleeve head part 8 includes a sleeve head cover 81 at its front end and a sleeve head socket 82 bolt connected with the back end of the sleeve head cover 81, and the sleeve head 8 part can slide along the axis of the light holder 7 relatively to the light holder 7.
  • the mirror 3 and convex lens 4 on the optical package are fixed inside the sleeve head cover 81 through a ring 83.
  • the installation socket 1 is fixed and connected at the front end of the light holder 7.
  • the sleeve head cover 81 leads the mirror 3 and convex lens 4 to slide relatively to the light holder 7, thus changing the relative distance between the light source 2 and the convex lens 4 & mirror 3.

  • the limit flanges 12 are in the limit sliding grooves 84 and the sleeve head part 8 can move relative to the light holder 7 in the axial direction of the light holder 7, thus changing the relative distance between the light source 2 and the convex lens 4 & mirror 3.
  • FIG. 17 when the sleeve head part 8 is turned along direction B, the mismatch between the limit sliding grooves 84 and the limit flanges 12 occurs, causing the limit flanges 12 to be rolled out from the limit sliding grooves 84.
  • the inner wall of the sleeve head part 8 presses the limit flanges 12 inwards to deform the elastic connecting sections 14 and the elastic limit block 13 at the same time, so a great fraction force is generated between the outer circumference of the limit flanges 12 and the inner wall of the sleeve head part 8, thus fixing the relative positions of the sleeve head part 8 and the installation socket 1, and further fixing the relative positions of the light source and the convex lens 4.

  • internal threads and external threads can be configured on the inner surface of the sleeve head part and the outer surface of the light holder at the front end respectively in the present invention, through which the sleeve head part is bolt-connected at the front end of the light holder. Therefore, when turning the sleeve head part, the axial displacement between the light holder and the sleeve head part can be changed through the mutual matching between the threads, thus the axial displacement between the convex lens & mirror and the light source can be changed.
  • the convex lens above can be colored and the color can be adjusted according to particular using environments, for example purple can be used to distinguish false from the genuine (such as currency detection), yellow capable of improving penetrating power can be used as vehicle frog lights, the blue convex lens will emit dark black when glaring on red substances and can be used to identify bloodstains at night, since the light-sensitive eye cells are sensitive to the blue-green short wavelength light, it can realize an eye-catching effect when used at night.
