Abstract

A monolithic lens mount is formed by an annular body which is divided through material recesses into an outer mount ring, an inner mount ring and three connection structures which are arranged so as to be offset by 120° relative to one another. The connection structures in each instance form a chain of at least three, preferably five, connection webs which transition into one another and which are constructed as radial connection webs and axial connection webs. The axial flexural stiffness and radial flexural stiffness and the torsional stiffness of the connection structures can be determined via the dimensioning of the radial connection webs and axial connection webs.
