Abstract
An intraoral scanner includes a projecting module, an image-capturing module, a linkage structure, and a manipulation part. The projecting module includes a first lens device and a light source. Light emitted by the light source is projected out of the intraoral scanner by the first lens device. The image-capturing module includes a second lens device and an image sensor. The image sensor receives the light from the outside of the intraoral scanner through the second lens device. The manipulation part is exposed from the intraoral scanner and is mechanically linked with the first or second lens device through the linkage structure. Therein, the manipulation part is operable to correspondingly move at least one first lens of the first lens device or at least one second lens of the second lens device through the linkage structure, so as to adjust a scanning zone of the intraoral scanner.
