Abstract
A lens supporting structure includes a mounting structure, such as an integral part of a housing, that includes one or more fixing parts that mate with one or more fixing parts of a lens holder. The fixing parts may be posts with screw holes on the housing, as well as screws passing through elongated holes on lens holder flanges. The lens supporting structure further includes securing parts on the mounting structure and on the lens holder, which may be elongated projections on the housing and the lens holder, that engage to prevent movement of the lens holder in a first direction at the same time that engagement of fixing parts, such as posts and the flanges, prevent movement of the lens holder in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction so that the lens holder can be simultaneously accurately positioned in both directions and then fixed in position.
