A lens driving device for a zoom and a multifocus lens housing of a camera, the lens driving device comprising a holding member for holding imaging lenses and having a first helicoid formed relative to the optical axis of the lenses; a rotary member having a second helicoid which is arranged to engage to the first helicoid, the rotary member being arranged to be engaged to the holding member via the two helicoids and rotatably supported relative to the optical axis to a camera housing; a guide member which is provided for either of the holding member or the camera housing and which has two guide surfaces extending in the direction of the optical axis; and supporting members provided for the residual one of the holding member and the camera housing and having at least one pair of rotary members to which the guide surfaces of the guide member are brought into contact, whereby the contact of the guide member and the supporting members prevents the rotation of the holding member and allows the holding member to rectilinearly move in the direction of the optical axis in accordance with the rotation of the rotary member. As a result, the contact between the guide member and the supporting member prevents the rotation of the holding member, allows the holding member to rectilinearly move in the direction of the optical axis of the lens in accordance with the rotation of the rotary member so that the lens group can smoothly rectilinearly move.

Range measuring device for a camera measures the distances to objects respectively present in a central area of the photographing field and in plural areas including those surrounding the central area, then produces an outdoor signal indicating that the photographing is conducted outdoors or an indoor signal indicating that the photographing is conducted indoors, discriminates whether the object in the central area is the main object to be focused from the measured distance of the central area, and, if the distance in the central area is included in a reference distance range, determines the photographing distance based at least on the measured distance of the central area. The reference distance range is selected to be larger when the outdoor signal is produced than the case when the indoor signal is produced.

A camera has a light shielding member surrounding an axially movable lens housing arranged to project through a circular opening in a camera housing. The light shielding member has an annular disc portion with an inner peripheral grooved surface frictionally engaging an outer cylindrical surface of the lens housing. The disc portion is positioned between a transverse inner surface of the camera housing cover and a surface of a helicoid member. At its outer periphery, the light shielding member has a generally cylindrical flange that projects axially between a longitudinal inner surface of the camera housing and the helicoid.
摘要:
In an objective lens assembly for an optical instrument comprising inner and outer tube members with outer and inner engaged helicoidal screws, respectively, the normal trapezoidal-section main ridge of the helicoidal screw of the outer tube member is modified to provide one or more wall surfaces that reflect stray light from the object side of the objective lens assembly to prevent such light from reaching the image side of the assembly. The wall surface or surfaces are provided by one or more sub-ridges or grooves at the top of the trapezoidal-section main ridge. Bottom portions between successive elements of the main ridge may be angulated to prevent stray light reflected therefrom from reaching the image end of the assembly.

According to one embodiment, a resistance change memory includes a memory cell, a sense amplifier and a global bit line. The memory cell is disposed at a location where a local bit line and a word line intersect each other. The memory cell is connected to both the local bit line and the word line. The sense amplifier reads data stored on the memory cell by supplying a read current to the memory cell. The global bit line is connected between the local bit line and the sense amplifier. The global bit line feeds the read current supplied by the sense amplifier to the local bit line. The sense amplifier charges the global bit line, before the local bit line and the global bit line are connected to each other.

The control circuit selects, as the first reference cell, the first memory cell having a maximum reading current supplied by turning on the first select transistor in a state in which resistance values of the first memory cells are all increased. The control circuit selects, as the second reference cell, the second memory cell having a maximum reading current supplied by turning on the second select transistor in a state in which resistance values of the second memory cells are all increased. The first reference-current setting circuit sets, as the first reference current, a current obtained by adding a first adjusting current to the reading current of the first reference cell. The second reference-current setting circuit sets, as the second reference current, a current obtained by adding a second adjusting current to the reading current of the second reference cell.
