L'invention concerne un capteur optique dans lequel une lentille cylindrique est maintenue de manière appropriée par un dispositif de maintien. Cette lentille cylindrique (345) est montée et maintenue de telle sorte que son bord périphérique, en une extrémité, dans la direction axiale soit au contact d'une surface de contact entre une paire de sections de maintien constituant des surfaces périphériques internes, de type cylindre sensiblement creux, d'une base de lentille. Un mécanisme de mandrin de serrage d'un dispositif support est engagé et maintenu dans des sections à rainures en forme de V dans les surfaces externes des sections de maintien. La position de la base de lentille est ajustée par le dispositif support dans une direction d'axe optique (Z) de la lentille cylindrique (345), dans deux directions radiales (X, Y) perpendiculaires l'une à l'autre, et dans un sens de rotation (R). Une section d'installation de la base de lentille est collée et fixée à une base. Un élément récepteur de lumière (350) utilisé dans ce capteur optique (300) n'exige pas de réglage de position et il est facile de réduire la taille de ce dernier.
