PURPOSE:To provide an automatic focusing function by composing an objective unit of two-group constitution of a fixed objective and a movable objective, and moving the movable objective through focusing operation and putting the objective unit in focus. CONSTITUTION:A binocular magnifying optical system 20, a downward illuminating means 30, a focusing means 40, etc., are arranged in a sealed housing and the objective unit 11 which has a large diameter is arranged opposite a subject W. This objective unit 11 consists of the two groups, i.e., the fixed objective 11a which has negative lens system characteristics on whole and the movable objective 11b behind it which has positive lens system characteristics on the whole. Further, the movable objective 11b is arranged movably by the driving of a focusing mechanism 50 in the optical-axis direction and the objective unit is put in focus by the movement. In this case, a driving signal which makes a shift in focusing position according to a focusing signal generated by processing the signal from the line sensor of a detection module 48 is outputted to the motor 52 of the focusing mechanism 50 to vary the focal distance, thereby performing the automatic focusing operation.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, for example, when performing an operation or the like, when the affected area is fine, the affected area is treated by enlarging the affected area with a binocular stereoscopic microscope. A magnifying optical system that substantially constitutes a binocular magnifying lens is arranged in the rear, and as its focus adjustment, one that installs a mechanism for vertically moving or laterally moving the entire microscope by a rack and pinion configured on a column It has been put to practical use.

However, in the case where the entire microscope is moved as described above and the position of the subject is adjusted to the focal length position of the objective lens to focus, the one having a large mass is moved. However, it requires a rather large-scale structure for fixing at any place after the movement, and in some cases requires a special position fixing member or mechanism.

As a result, the entire microscope including the mechanism for focusing becomes large and heavy, which hinders the focusing operation and the light movements of the movement of the microscope, and becomes expensive. In particular, in the case of a surgical microscope, for example, when an emergency such as bleeding occurs during surgery, it is necessary to remove the microscope from the examination area and perform an emergency procedure. In this case, refocusing is required, and in addition to the treatment for the affected area, movement of the microscope and focusing operation are necessary, which may hinder quick work.

Further, even in the case where the focusing of the binocular stereomicroscope is intended to be performed automatically in accordance with the signal of the distance measuring means, focusing is performed by moving a portion having a large mass. There is a problem that the mechanism is large and light, and quick and accurate operation cannot be expected.

On the other hand, in the above-mentioned conventional structure, since the eyepiece lens is also moved for focusing, good observation cannot be performed unless the position of the eyes of the observer is moved in response to the focusing operation. In addition, there is a problem that the eyepiece lens portion comes into contact with the eyes, and improvement is required in terms of operability and observability.

In the binocular stereoscopic microscope as described above, the objective lens unit is composed of two groups of a fixed objective lens and a movable objective lens, and the movable objective lens is moved according to the focusing operation to change the focal length of the lens system. However, the subject is focused. As a result, the mass of the component that moves according to the focusing operation is reduced, the focusing operation can be performed with a small actuation force, and a light, quick, and accurate focusing function can be obtained. Furthermore, the eyepiece lens does not move according to the focusing operation, and it is not necessary to change the position of the eyes of the observer, and good operability and observability can be obtained. Also, when trying to add an automatic focusing function to the binocular stereomicroscope by automating the moving mechanism with a motor etc.,
This enables quick and accurate control.
