Description of the Invention: - Technical Field to Which the Invention A Field The present invention relates to a lens barrel, and to a lens set to which the lens barrel is applied. [Prior Art] A conventional lens module includes a lens holder and a lens barrel screwed into the lens holder. The lens holder includes a receiving cavity, and an internal thread is disposed on the inner wall of the receiving cavity. An external thread is disposed on the outer wall of the lens barrel, and the external thread of the lens barrel is screwed to the inner ridge of the lens holder to fix the lens barrel in the accommodating cavity of the lens holder. . However, the lens barrel and the lens holder in the current lens module are all injection molded, because the plastic material is easily deformed, and it is difficult to control the precise formation of the lens barrel and the thread on the lens holder during the molding process. The assembly of the barrel and the lens holder is not smooth, and there are defects such as errors and burrs between the lens barrel and the mirror base, so that the friction between the lens barrel and the lens holder is relatively large, and the chip is easily generated during the fitting process. 'The loss of these chips on the sensor surface of the lens module will seriously affect the imaging quality of the lens module. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above, it is necessary to provide a lens barrel which has a small frictional assembly and is less prone to chipping, and a lens module to which the lens barrel is applied. A lens barrel includes a hollow cylindrical body, the barrel including an outer side and an inner side. An external thread that surrounds the barrel is formed on an outer side surface of the barrel. Three chord faces separating the external threads are formed at equal intervals 3 201040610 from the outer side faces of the barrel. A lens module includes a lens holder, a plurality of lenses, a sensing element, and a mirror. The mirror is screwed into the lens holder, the plurality of lenses δ are placed in the lens barrel, and the sensing element is disposed on the mirror holder at the other end opposite to the lens barrel, and is located at The optical path of the lens. The lens barrel includes a hollow cylindrical body, the barrel including an outer side and an inner side. An external thread surrounding the barrel is formed on an outer side surface of the barrel. Three chordal surfaces separating the external threads are formed at equal intervals on the outer side surface of the barrel. Compared with the prior art, the lens barrel of the present invention and the lens module using the same use three chord cut surfaces to divide the threads on the outer side of the lens barrel, thereby reducing the area of the thread, thereby reducing the lens barrel. The frictional force generated during the assembly process also reduces the amount of impurities such as burrs on the thread to reduce the possibility of chipping. Thereby, the assembly precision and reliability of the lens barrel in the assembly process are improved. Embodiments Please refer to FIG. 1, a lens barrel 100 according to a first preferred embodiment of the present invention. The lens barrel 100 includes a barrel body 110 which is hollow cylindrical and includes an outer side surface 112 and an inner side surface η4. An external thread Π6 surrounding the barrel body 形成 is formed on the outer side surface 112 of the barrel body 11〇. Three chord planes ι18 separating the external threads 116 are formed at equal intervals on the outer side surface 112 of the barrel 11''. The chord section 118 is formed by cutting the cylinder 110 parallel to the axial direction of the barrel 110 from three equally spaced and equal length chords in the circumference 4 201040610 formed by the outer side surface 112. . The three chord sections 118 divide the external threads 116 on the barrel 110 into three symmetrically discontinuous main thread zones 116a. Preferably, the main threaded region 116a and the chord section 118 are equal to the central angle of the circumference formed by the outer side surface 112, that is, the main threaded area 116a and the chord section 118 correspond to the outer side surface 112. The central angle of the formed circumference is 60 degrees. The three chord sections 118 cut off a portion of the external thread 116 on the outer side 112 of the body 110, thereby reducing the area of the external thread 116, thereby enabling the mounting of the barrel 1 The frictional force generated by the thread 116 is reduced, whereby the influence of the error existing in the manufacturing process on the mounting accuracy of the lens barrel 1〇〇 is reduced. In addition, since the area occupied by the external thread 116 is reduced by providing three chord sections 118, impurities such as burrs formed on the screw teeth are reduced, and the burrs and the like are prevented from being rubbed by the lens barrel during the rotational mounting process. Peeling off and staying in the internal thread of the lens holder or the surface of the sensor affects the mounting of the lens barrel and the image quality of the lens module. Thereby, the assembly precision and the guilt of the lens barrel during assembly are improved. Three chord sections 118 are provided to divide the external thread into two main thread zones 116a, the three main thread zones being symmetrical to each other, and the three main thread zones U6a are respectively screwed to the mirror base during installation. At three different positions of the internal thread, the principle of determining one side according to three points, the lens barrel is accurately mounted in the lens holder through the two separate main thread regions 116a, and when the lens holder is locally deformed The mutually separated main thread regions 116a can be adaptively deformed without affecting the position of the entire barrel no in the lens holder. 3, the external thread 116 of the 5 201040610 is divided by three chord sections 118, which not only reduces the area occupied by the thread on the external thread 116, but also does not increase the barrel 110 of the barrel 1 . The thickness is convenient for the operator to clean the burrs formed on the thread to further reduce the chipping. Referring to FIG. 2, a lens module 200 for applying the lens barrel 100 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is provided. The lens module 200 includes a lens holder 210, a plurality of lenses 220' and a sensing element 230. The lens barrel 100 is screwed into the lens holder 210. The plurality of lenses 220 are disposed in the barrel 1〇〇. The sensing element 230 is disposed on the other end of the lens holder 210 opposite to the lens barrel 1 and is located in the optical path of the lens 220. Referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 3, a lens barrel 300 according to a second preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a barrel 31 相似 similar to the lens barrel 200, and the barrel 310 has a hollow column shape and includes - Outer side 312 and an inner side 314. An external thread 316 surrounding the barrel 310 is formed on the outer side 312 of the barrel 310. Three chord planes 318 separating the external threads 316 are formed at equal intervals on the outer side surface 312 of the barrel 31〇, and the chord 0 section divides the external thread 316 into three equally spaced main threads. District 3W. The difference is that a sub-thread 315 is formed on the chord face of the lens barrel 3〇〇. The sub-thread 315 is stolenly connected to the main screw region 3 of the external thread 316. The thread height HR of the sub-thread 315 = the external thread 316. Preferably, the difference in height between the thread height h of the sub-thread 315 and the thread height h of the external thread 316 is 〇.〇2 mm. Referring to FIG. 5, a lens module 400 for applying the cartridge 300 is provided by a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The lens module 4 includes a lens holder 41, 6 201040610, a plurality of lenses 420, and a sensing element 430. The inner side of the lens holder 410 is provided with an internal thread 412, and the lens barrel 300 is screwed into the lens holder 410 by its external thread 316. The plurality of lenses 420 are disposed within the lens barrel 300. The sensing element 430 is disposed at the other end of the lens holder 410 opposite to the lens barrel 300 and is located in the optical path of the lens 320. The sub-thread 315 of the lens barrel 300 is received between the internal threads 412 of the lens holder 410, since the thread height h of the sub-thread 315 is smaller than the thread height Η of the external thread 316. The sub-thread 315 is disposed at a distance from the internal thread 412 of the lens holder 410 when being received between the internal threads 412 of the lens holder 410, so that the friction of the lens barrel 300 during installation can be reduced. The force can also block dust or other particles from falling into the interior of the lens module 400 by the gap between the chord plane 318 and the mirror mount 400. In order to further reduce the interference of the sub-thread 315 with the internal thread 412 of the lens holder 410, the root thickness t of the sub-thread 315 can be made smaller than the root thickness T of the external thread 316. In summary, the present invention complies with the requirements of the invention patent and submits a patent application according to law. However, the above description is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and equivalent modifications or variations made by those skilled in the art in light of the spirit of the present invention are It should be covered by the following patent application.
