摘要:
A device for compensating positional deviations in screwing interchangeable lenses into a single-lens reflex camera by means of an aperture setting ring including a pin mounted in a slot to determine its angular movement. A barrel lens has a hook element engagable with a notched area on the aperture setting ring. The hook element is mounted to have less angular movement than the aperture setting ring so that positive engagement is always provided within the range of movement of the barrel lens.

A ring for coupling an exposure meter to an aperture stop control means is disposed on the body of a single-lens reflex camera employing the screw-in type interchangeable lenses and is rotatable about the optical axis of the lens, and a clutch lever is rotatably fixed to this coupling ring. The free end of the clutch lever engages with a projection of a shutter release lever in such a way that the clutch lever is normally moved away from a horizontal coupling arm of an aperture stop control ring which is disposed in the lens and is provided with an aperture stop control cam, so long as the shutter release lever is not depressed or moved downwardly. Therefore, when the lens is mounted, the horizontal coupling arm will not engage with the clutch lever, so that the lens may be mounted and dismounted freely. Upon depression of the shutter release lever, the clutch lever moves into mechanical or frictional engagement with the coupling arm, and when the shutter release lever is further depressed the coupling ring is rotated through an angle corresponding to the angle of displacement of the pointer of the exposure meter so that the clutch lever rotates the control ring in unison with the coupling ring.

An aperture control mechanism for a photographic taking lens system wherein a cam ring is provided with an automatic and manual aperture setting cam slots both of which are adjacent to and continuous with each other and which serve to control the range of angle of rotation of an aperture control lever for closing an aperture blade; and the cam ring is interlocked with an aperture setting ring, whereby automatic and manual aperture index scale regions can be disposed adjacent to each other upon the aperture setting ring.
摘要:
A camera shutter mechanism wherein depression of a release button causes a connecting lever to be horizontally displaced over a distance dependent upon the angular position of the needle of an exposure meter, the position being indicative of the brightness of a subject, so that as the horizontal position of the connecting lever is displaced, the angular position of an aperture control cam is varied. When the release button is further depressed, a drive pawl is adapted to cause a flywheel to rotate so that a control pin extending from this flywheel is moved away from an arcuate cam surface of the aperture control cam to permit the rotation of a shutter blade drive lever until it engages with the arcuate cam surface of the control cam whereby the shutter blades are opened. When the control pin is returned to its initial position and engaged with the arcuate cam surface of the control cam again, the shutter blade drive lever is returned to its initial position to close the shutter blades. The degree of opening of the shutter blades is dependent upon the angle of rotation permitted to the shutter blade drive lever. When a flashcube is mounted, the exposure meter is made inoperative and the degree of opening of the shutter blades is dependent upon a distance to a subject by the stroke of displacement of a shutter blade drive pin which in turn is determined by a flashmatic cam which is operatively coupled to a distance setting ring.

AN EXPOSURE METER SWITCH FOR CAMERAS WHEREIN A FIRST SWITCH WHICH IS OPENED OR CLOSED IN RESPONSE TO THE ACTUATION OF A SELECTION MEMBER FOR SELECTING EITHER AN AUTOMATIC EXPOSURE SETTING OR A MANUAL EXPOSURE SETTING AND A SECOND SWITCH WHICH IS CLOSED IN RESPONSE TO THE FILM WINDING AND IS AUTOMATICALLY OPENED IN RESPONSE TO THE SHUTTER RELEASE OPERATION ARE CONNECTED IN SERIES TO A CIRCUIT OF AN EXPOSURE METER.
