ABSTRACT:
A lens positioning device for an electrophotographic copying machine having at least three magnification modes and including a projecting lens unit movable along the optical axis between extreme positions representing the largest and smallest magnifications through an intermediate position representing a magnification substantially intermediately between the largest and smallest magnifications. The lens positioning device comprises a stopper mechanism for trapping the projecting lens unit at the intermediate position accurately and exactly. This stopper mechanism includes at least one blocking element pivotally carried by a movable block and operable to halt the movement of the projecting lens unit when the movable block is moved to a position where the blocking element is ready to engage the projecting lens unit.
