  • Patent number: 10989391
    Abstract: Optical system (2) for a spotlight (S), comprising a first optical element (3) and a second optical element (4), which are arranged optically one behind the other along a light-radiating axis (A), and an adjustment mechanism (5), which is coupled to the first optical element (3) and the second optical element (4) such that it can move the optical elements (3, 4) along the light-radiating axis (A) in such a way that the optical elements (3, 4) can be moved relative to one another between a distanced position, in which the optical elements (3, 4) are spaced apart along the light-radiating axis (A), and an adjacent position, in which the optical elements (3, 4) are arranged closer to one another than in the distanced position, and wherein the adjustment mechanism (5) is further coupled to the first optical element (3) and the second optical element (4) such that the optical elements (3, 4), when they are in the adjacent position, can be moved together along the light-radiating axis (A) while maintaining said adj
