Problems solved by technology

In this case, when fixing by tightening the screw, an external force due to rotation of the screw or sinking of the member is applied to the lens unit or the holding member, thereby sometimes reducing the accuracy of the positional relationship between the lens and the imaging element.

Embodiment approach 1

[0035] The drawings used in the following description are schematic diagrams. Dimensional ratios and the like in the drawings do not necessarily correspond to actual ones.

[0036] [Structure of camera unit]

[0037] Such as figure 1 As shown, the camera module 1 includes a lens unit 2 and a holding member 3 . The lens unit 2 has a lens 21 . The lens 21 is fixed to the lens unit 2 . The holding member 3 has an imaging element 31 . The imaging element 31 is fixed to the holding member 3 . A filling hole 32 is provided on the holding member 3 . A plurality of filling holes 32 may be provided on the holding member 3 . exist figure 1 In, three filling holes 32 are provided. The lens unit 2 and the holding member 3 can be fixed at three points through the three filling holes 32 . The filling holes 32 are not limited to three.

[0038] With the lens unit 2 and the holding member 3 , the adhesive is filled from the filling hole 32 in a state where the lens 21 and the imagi...

Embodiment approach 2

[0064] The lens unit 2 may also have a rib 24 connecting the three bosses 22 .

[0065] Figure 6 The lens unit 2 shown has ribs 24 connecting three bosses 22 . Grooves 25 may be provided on the ribs 24 . The groove 25 can connect the hole 23 provided on the boss 22 . Ribs 24 and grooves 25 may be provided on at least a portion around the optical axis 5 . The ribs 24 and grooves 25 may be provided on the entire circumference around the optical axis 5 .

[0066] Figure 7 The camera assembly 1 is shown at the point where the lens unit 2 has ribs 24 and grooves 25, with image 3 The camera assembly 1 shown is different. The adhesive is filled from the filling hole 32 corresponding to the boss 22 , and spreads from the hole 23 to the rib 24 and the groove 25 . The filled adhesive is cured to form the joining member 4 . The joining member 4 may be formed on at least a part of the circumference of the optical axis 5 . The bonding member 4 may also be formed over the entire...

Embodiment approach 3

[0069] The lens unit 2 may not have the boss 22 .

[0070] Figure 8A The lens unit 2 shown has only holes 23 and no bosses 22 . Figure 8B The lens unit 2 shown in addition to having Figure 8A In addition to the structure, there is also a groove 25 connecting the hole 23.

[0071] Figure 9 The shown lens unit 2 does not have the boss 22 at this point and Figure 4 The lens unit 2 shown is different. The adhesive is filled from the filling hole 32 corresponding to the hole 23 and filled into the inside of the hole 23 . and Figure 4 Compared, Figure 9 The lens unit 2 shown has a wider space between the holding members 3 since it does not have the bosses 22 . Thereby, when the positional alignment of the lens unit 2 and the holding member 3 is performed, the movable range in the direction of the optical axis 5 can become wider.

Abstract

The present invention provides a camera module including: a lens unit having a lens, a holding member provided with an imaging element, and a bonding member formed of cured resin. At least a part of the bonding member has a surface intersecting the direction of the optical axis of the lens, and the lens unit and the holding member are bonded together by this surface.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the priority of Japanese Patent Application No. 2015-212391 (filed on October 28, 2015), and uses the entire disclosure content of this application in this application for reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to a camera assembly and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0004] Conventionally, in a camera module, a lens unit having a lens and a holding member having an imaging element are fixed with screws after position adjustment of the lens and the imaging element. In this case, when fixing by screwing, external force due to rotation of the screw or sinking of the member is applied to the lens unit or the holding member, and the accuracy of the positional relationship between the lens and the imaging element may be reduced. In order to prevent the above problems, there is a method of fixing the lens unit and the holding member using an adhesive (...
