Description

Technical Field

[0001] This embodiment relates to a camera device.

Background Art

[0002] In recent years, ultra-small camera modules have been developed and are widely used in small electronic products such as smartphones, notebook computers, and game machines.

[0003] As automobiles become more popular, ultra-small cameras are not only used in small electronic products but also widely used in vehicles. For example, a black box camera for vehicle protection or objective materials for traffic accidents, a rear monitoring camera that allows a driver to monitor a blind spot area at the rear of the vehicle through a screen to ensure safety when the vehicle is reversing, a peripheral sensing camera that can monitor the periphery of the vehicle, etc. are provided.

[0004] On the other hand, with the development of technology, a lane departure automatic return system (LKAS; Lane Keeping Assist SYSTEM) is increasingly being applied, which inputs the front video signal of the road during driving, analyzes it in real time, inputs the signal, senses the lane departure situation caused by driver inattention or drowsy driving, and then generates an alarm.

[0005] However, due to differences in vehicle size and windshield angle for each vehicle, a different configuration such as a coupler for each vehicle must be used to optimize the camera for the lane departure automatic return system for the viewing angle, which results in the problem of mold cost.

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0006] The object of this embodiment is to provide a camera device that can reduce the manufacturing cost and adjust the viewing angle at a desired range of pointing angles.

[0007] Furthermore, the objective is to provide a camera device that allows for easy adjustment of the field of view within a desired range of directional angles, even after installation. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] The camera device according to this embodiment includes a movable part including a lens, a fixed part coupled to the movable part, a plate disposed between the movable part and the fixed part, and an adjustment part for adjusting the movement of the movable part, wherein the adjustment part includes an elastic member, an adjustment member and a body, and the body includes a base, a first side wall extending from the base and in contact with the fixed part, and a second side wall extending from the base and in contact with the movable part.

[0009] The elastic member may be formed integrally with the plate and may include a first region extending to one side of the plate and a second region that is bent in the first region.

[0010] When the distance between the base of the body and the fixing portion is reduced, the distance between the first region and the second region of the elastic member can be reduced.

[0011] The distance between the plate and the fixing portion can be adjusted by the distance between the first region and the second region of the elastic member.

[0012] The elastic member is positioned between the fixed portion and the movable portion, and one side of the elastic member can contact the fixed portion.

[0013] The base may include a hole into which the adjustment member is inserted.

[0014] The angle between the base and the first side wall may be different from the angle between the base and the second side wall.

[0015] The angle between the base and the inner surface of the first side wall can be a right angle, and the angle between the base and the inner surface of the second side wall can be an obtuse angle.

[0016] When the distance between the base of the body and the fixing part decreases, the optical axis of the lens can be tilted to one side from the reference point.

[0017] A camera device according to another embodiment includes a movable part including a lens, a fixed part coupled to the movable part, a plate disposed between the movable part and the fixed part, and an adjustment part for adjusting the movement of the movable part, the adjustment part including an elastic member and a body, and when the body moves in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis of the lens, the optical axis of the lens is tilted from a reference point in one direction or the other direction. [Effects of the Invention]

[0018] This embodiment provides a camera device that can adjust the field of view within a desired range of directional angles.

[0019] Furthermore, it is possible to provide a camera device that minimizes changes in the field of view due to manufacturing tolerances of the camera module or tolerances that occur when it is mounted on a vehicle.

[0020] Furthermore, it is possible to provide a camera device that can minimize changes in the field of view caused by external forces or vibrations during or after the vehicle installation process.

[0021] Furthermore, it is possible to provide a camera device that can readjust the angle of view, which fluctuates due to external forces after installation on a vehicle. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[0031] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a vehicle equipped with a camera device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0032] Referring to Figure 1, a camera device 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention can be coupled to the wind glass 2 of a vehicle 1. The wind glass 2 can be located at the front or rear of the vehicle 1. The wind glass 2 is made of a transparent material and allows the driver to focus on the front or rear. The wind glass 2 can include a front wind glass located at the front of the vehicle 1 and a rear wind glass located at the rear of the vehicle. The camera device 10 can be coupled to the inner surface of the wind glass 2. In the embodiments of the present invention, the camera device 10 is described using coupling to the front wind glass as an example, but it can also be coupled to the rear wind glass. The bracket 200 of the camera device 10 (see Figure 2) may be directly coupled to the inner surface of the wind glass 2 by means of adhesive or other methods, but this does not preclude the camera device 10 from being coupled to the wind glass 2 via a separate coupler (not shown) and / or cover (not shown).

[0033] Figure 2 is a perspective view illustrating the external appearance of a camera device according to an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 3 is a perspective view of Figure 2 from a different angle; Figure 4 is a perspective view illustrating the rear surface of a camera device according to an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 5 is a perspective view illustrating the rear surface of a camera device according to an embodiment of the present invention with the fixed part removed; Figure 6 is an exploded perspective view of a camera device according to an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 7 is an exploded perspective view of Figure 6 from a different angle; Figure 8 is a cross-sectional view of a camera device according to an embodiment of the present invention; and Figure 9 is a cross-sectional view of the camera device in Figure 8 with the fixed part removed.

[0034] Referring to Figures 2-9, the camera device 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a movable part 100, a fixed part 200, an adjustment part 300, and a plate 400, but it may also be implemented with some of these components excluded, and no additional components are excluded.

[0035] The camera device 10 can be installed on the windshield 2 of the vehicle 1. The camera device 10 can adjust the shooting direction of the movable part 100. This compensates for manufacturing tolerances of the movable part 100 and mounting tolerances to the vehicle 1, and allows the field of view to be adjusted within the range of the user's desired directional angle.

[0036] The camera device 10 may include the movable part 100. The movable part 100 can also be called the housing 100, as it forms the outer shape of the camera device 10. The movable part 100 may include at least one lens 110, 120. In this embodiment, the camera device 10 is described as a dual camera, but it is not limited to this and can be modified in various ways, such as a triple camera.

[0037] The lenses 110 and 120 include a first lens 110 and a second lens 120, and can be positioned on the front surface of the movable part 100. Mounting parts 112 and 122, to which the first lens 110 and the second lens 120 are coupled, can be positioned on the front surface of the housing 101 that forms the outer shape of the movable part 100. The mounting parts 112 and 122 have an opening shape and may include a first mounting part 112 to which the first lens 110 is coupled and a second mounting part 122 to which the second lens 120 is coupled. The front surface of the housing 101 has a plurality of regions arranged with steps between them, and the first mounting part 112 and the second mounting part 122 can be positioned in each of the plurality of regions.

[0038] On the other hand, in this embodiment, the lenses 110 and 120 are given as an example of being lenses themselves, but this is not limiting, and the lenses 110 and 120 may also be lens barrels, and at least one or more lenses can be arranged inside the lens barrel.

[0039] The housing 101 may include a front portion 132 on which the mounting portions 112 and 122 are formed, an upper portion 131 forming the top surface, and side portions 138 positioned on both sides of the front portion 132 to form the sides. The front end of the side portion 138 may be formed to protrude forward from the front portion 132, and a first coupling portion 140 for coupling with the fixing portion 200 may be provided at the front end of the side portion 138. The first coupling portion 140 includes a first coupling hole 142 and can be hinged to the fixing portion 200. The movable portion 100 can rotate about the first coupling hole 142 as the center of rotation. This allows the field of view of the camera device 10 to be adjusted.

[0040] A space can be formed on the rear surface of the housing 101 for arranging at least one or more electronic components. For example, a first printed circuit board 630 equipped with a first image sensor 632 positioned opposite the first lens 110 in the optical axis direction, and a second printed circuit board 640 equipped with a second image sensor 642 positioned opposite the second lens 120 in the optical axis direction can be arranged on the rear surface of the housing 101. Here, the first image sensor 632 and the second image sensor 642 are shown as being arranged on the first printed circuit board 630 and the second printed circuit board 640 respectively, but of course they can be arranged on a single printed circuit board.

[0041] A first guide 150 can be positioned on the upper surface of the housing 101, protruding upward from other areas. The first guide 150 can be positioned in the center of the upper surface portion 131. The first guide 150 has a plate shape and can be connected to a body 310, which will be described later. A second guide 152 is positioned on the rear surface of the first guide 150, protruding rearward from other areas, and a hole 153 can be formed on the upper surface of the second guide 152, to which an adjustment member 340, which will be described later, can be connected.

[0042] First coupling grooves 160 for coupling with the plate 400 can be provided on the upper and lower surfaces of the housing 101, respectively. Two of the first coupling grooves 160 can be provided on the upper surface portion 131 of the housing 101, and two can be provided on the lower surface of the housing 101. For example, the two first coupling grooves 160 provided on the upper surface portion 131 can be provided spaced apart on both sides with respect to the first guide 150.

[0043] The first coupling groove 160 has a shape that is recessed below the upper surface of the housing 101, and the third coupling portion 450 of the plate 400, which will be described later, can be coupled to it. A projection 162 protruding from the bottom surface can be formed on the bottom surface of the first coupling groove 160. A portion of the outer surface of the projection 162 may be an inclined surface.

[0044] The camera device 10 may include the fixing part 200. The fixing part 200 can also be called a bracket 200, as it fixes the camera device 10 to the installation area.

[0045] The fixed portion 200 can be coupled to the movable portion 100. The fixed portion 200 can be coupled to the rear surface of the movable portion 100. The movable portion 100 can be coupled to the fixed portion 200 so as to be tiltable.

[0046] The fixed portion 200 may include a rear portion 202 coupled to the rear surface of the movable portion 100, and a plurality of side portions 204 that are bent forward from both ends of the rear portion 202 and form a side surface. A second coupling portion 220 may be arranged at the ends of the forward-extending side portions 204. The second coupling portion 220 may be arranged to face the first coupling portion 140. The second coupling portion 220 may include a second coupling hole 222. The second coupling hole 222 may be arranged to face the first coupling hole 142.

[0047] The camera device 10 may include a coupling shaft 500 that is coupled to the first coupling hole 142 and the second coupling hole 222 and forms the rotation center of the movable part 100. The coupling shaft 500 can be fitted from the outside of the second coupling part 220 and coupled so that at least a portion of it passes through the second coupling hole 222 and the first coupling hole 142. The movable part 100 can be rotated (tilted) clockwise or counterclockwise around the coupling shaft 500 via an adjustment part 300, which will be described later.

[0048] A fixing plate 210 extending to the rear can be positioned on the rear surface of the fixing portion 200. The fixing plate 210 may be shaped to extend outward from the lower end of the rear surface of the fixing portion 200. The fixing plate 210 may include at least one screw hole 212. Thus, a screw can be screw-connected to the screw hole 212, and the camera device 10 can be fixed to the installation area.

[0049] A connector hole 230 can be provided on the rear surface 202 of the fixing portion 200, extending from the front to the rear. The connector hole 230 is for connectors 610 and 620 to pass through, and the connectors 610 and 620 can be arranged such that one end is connected to the printed circuit boards 630 and 640, and the other end passes through the connector hole 230 and protrudes rearward from the rear surface of the fixing portion 200. Multiple connector holes 230 can be provided, corresponding to the number of connectors 610 and 620.

[0050] The connector hole 230 can be a long hole formed in the vertical direction. This allows the connectors 610 and 620 to move within the connector hole 230 when the movable part 100 moves.

[0051] A third guide 240 can be positioned on the upper surface of the fixed portion 200, protruding above other areas. The third guide 240 can be positioned opposite the first guide 150 in the optical axis direction. A groove can be formed in the center of the third guide 240 to accommodate at least a portion of the second guide 152.

[0052] The camera device 10 may include a plate 400. The plate 400 may be positioned between the movable part 100 and the fixed part 200. The plate 400 may be coupled to the rear surface of the movable part 100. The plate 400 may be made of metal. The plate 400 may be coupled so as to cover the rear surface of the space within the movable part 100. This allows the printed circuit boards 630 and 640 to be positioned between the plate 400 and the space within the movable part 100.

[0053] The plate 400 may include through-holes 402 through which the connectors 610 and 620 pass. The through-holes 402 may be formed to penetrate from the front to the rear surface of the plate 400.

[0054] A recess 404 can be formed on the rear surface of the plate 400, having a shape that recesses forward compared to other areas. The recess 404 may have a groove shape. Multiple recesses 404 can be provided and arranged spaced apart from each other. The recess 404 may be a long groove having a predetermined length. The longitudinal direction of the recess 404 can be defined in the left-right direction connecting both sides of the plate 400. The rigidity of the plate 400 can be reinforced through the recess 404.

[0055] A projection that protrudes forward can be arranged on the front surface of the plate 400 corresponding to the region in which the recess 404 is formed.

[0056] The plate 400 may include a third coupling portion 450. The third coupling portion 450 may have a shape in which a portion of the end of the plate 400 is bent forward and extends. The third coupling portion 450 can be coupled to the movable portion 100. The third coupling portion 450 can be coupled to the first coupling groove 160. There may be multiple third coupling portions 450 corresponding to the number of first coupling grooves 160. For example, two third coupling portions 450 may be arranged spaced apart from each other at the upper end of the plate 400, and two may be arranged spaced apart from each other at the lower end.

[0057] The third coupling portion 450 includes a third coupling hole 452, which can be coupled to the projection 162. That is, the plate 400 and the movable portion 100 can be hook-coupled via the third coupling hole 452 and the projection 162.

[0058] The camera device 10 may include an adjustment unit 300. The adjustment unit 300 is for adjusting the field of view of the camera device 10 and can move the movable unit 100.

[0059] The adjustment section 300 may include an elastic member 430, an adjustment member 340, and a body 310.

[0060] The elastic member 430 may be a component of the plate 400. The elastic member 430 may be formed integrally with the plate 400. The elastic member 430 may include a first region 431 extending upward from the upper end of the plate 400, and second regions 432, 434 that are bent downward from the upper end of the first region 431. In this embodiment, only an example in which the elastic member 430 is formed integrally with the plate 400 is shown, but other configurations are also possible.

[0061] The elastic member 430 can undergo elastic deformation in a direction perpendicular to the direction of movement of the body 310. The first region 431 and the second regions 432 and 434 can move closer to or further apart from each other as the body 310 moves. More specifically, when the distance between the base 312 of the body 310 and the fixing portion 200 decreases, the distance between the first region 431 and the second regions 432 and 434 can decrease. Also, when the distance between the base 312 of the body 310 and the fixing portion 200 increases, the distance between the first region 431 and the second regions 432 and 434 can increase.

[0062] Furthermore, the distance between the plate 400 and the fixing portion 200 can be adjusted by the distance between the first region 431 and the second regions 432 and 434 of the elastic member 430.

[0063] The elastic member 430 can be positioned between the rear surface of the first guide 150 and the rear surface portion 202 of the fixing portion 200, that is, between the front surface of the third guide 240.

[0064] The second regions 432 and 434 may have a region that is folded at least once. The second regions 432 and 434 may include a second-first region 432 and a second-second region 434 that are divided vertically with respect to the folded region. The folded region may have a shape that protrudes further back than the other regions.

[0065] The body 310 can be coupled to the upper parts of the movable part 100 and the fixed part 200. At least a portion of the body 310 can contact the front surface of the first guide 150, and another portion can contact the rear surface of the fixed part 200.

[0066] The body 310 may include a base 312, a first side wall 316 extending from the base 312 and in contact with the fixed portion 200, and a second side wall 314 extending from the base 312 and in contact with the movable portion 100. The first side wall 316 may extend from the rear surface of the base 312, and the second side wall 314 may extend from the front surface of the base 312. The first side wall 316 and the second side wall 314 may have a shape that protrudes downward from the front and rear surfaces of the base 312.

[0067] The angle formed by the base 312 and the first side wall 316 may differ from the angle formed by the base 312 and the second side wall 314. For example, the first side wall 316 can be formed with an inclination such that the distance to the rear surface of the fixing portion 200 increases as it goes downwards. In this case, the angle formed by the first side wall 316 and the base 312 can be obtuse. The second side wall 314 can be positioned perpendicular to the base 312.

[0068] The direction of movement of the body 310 may not be parallel to the optical axes of the lenses 110 and 120.

[0069] A hole 313 can be formed in the base 312, extending from the top surface through the bottom surface, to which the adjustment member 340 is connected. Screw threads or screw grooves can be formed on the inner circumferential surface of the hole 313, thereby allowing the adjustment member 340 to be screw-connected.

[0070] The base 312 can be positioned to overlap the second guide 152 in the vertical direction. The holes 313 in the base 312 can be positioned to face the holes 153 of the second guide 152 in the vertical direction.

[0071] The adjustment member 340 can pass through the hole 313 of the base 312 and be screw-connected to the hole 153 of the second guide 152. The adjustment member 340 may also be called a screw 340. The adjustment member 340 may include a head 342 and a fastening portion 344 that protrudes downward from the lower surface of the head 342 and is connected to the holes 313 and 153. The camera device 10 may include a control unit (not shown) that controls the rotation of the adjustment member 340. The rotation of the adjustment member 340 can cause the movable portion 100 to tilt relative to the fixed portion 200.

[0072] The control unit is for controlling the rotation of the adjustment member 340, and the rotation of the adjustment member 340 can move the body 310 in the vertical direction. The adjustment member 340 can be connected to another drive unit such as a stepper motor, and the control unit can control the rotation of the adjustment member 340 through the control of the stepper motor.

[0073] Of course, the adjustment member 340 can be manually rotated by the user.

[0074] With the structure described above, when the distance between the base 312 of the body 310 and the fixing part 200 decreases, the optical axes of the lenses 110 and 120 can be tilted to one side from the reference point. Conversely, when the distance between the base 312 of the body 310 and the fixing part 200 increases, the optical axes of the lenses 110 and 120 can be tilted to the other side from the reference point.

[0075] Here, the reference point can be the region where the optical axes of the lenses 110 and 120 are first set during the assembly process of the camera device 10.

[0076] Therefore, when the body 310 moves in a direction perpendicular to the optical axes of the lenses 110 and 120, the optical axes of the lenses 110 and 120 can be tilted to one side or the other side from the reference point. With respect to the reference point, the lenses 110 and 120 can have a rotation angle of 20 degrees to one side or the other side. This takes into account the distance between the fixed part 200 and the plate 400, and takes into account deformation of the internal structure of the camera device 10 and excessive opening of the internal space of the camera device 10 when the moving part rotates beyond the set range.

[0077] Referring to Figure 8, when the control unit rotates the adjustment member 340 in one direction, the body 310 is moved downward, and the moving part 100, including the lenses 110 and 120, can move in the first direction (A) due to the contact between the first side wall 316 and the fixed part 200 and the contact between the second side wall 314 and the moving part 100. This can be understood as the optical axes of the lenses 110 and 120 being tilted upward when the body 310 moves downward. Furthermore, when the body 310 moves downward, the gap between the upper side of the plate 400 and the upper side of the fixed part 200 can be narrowed, and the gap between the lower side of the plate 400 and the lower side of the fixed part 200 can be widened.

[0078] Furthermore, when the control unit rotates the adjustment member 340 in another direction, the body 310 is moved upward, and the moving part 100, including the lenses 110 and 120, can move in the second direction (B) due to the change in the contact area between the fixing part 200 and the first side wall 316. This can be understood by the fact that when the body 310 moves upward, the optical axes of the lenses 110 and 120 are tilted downward. When the body 310 moves upward, the distance between the upper side of the plate 400 and the upper side of the fixing part 200 can be increased, and the distance between the lower side of the plate 400 and the lower side of the fixing part 200 can be decreased.

[0079] On the other hand, the camera device 10 may include a clip 700 that restricts the movement of the movable part 100, and the clip 700 may be coupled to the lower surface of the camera device 10. For example, part of the clip 700 may be coupled to the lower surface of the movable part 100, and the other part may be coupled to the lower surface of the fixed part 200. The clip 700 can prevent the movable part 100 from being tilted excessively in the first direction (A).

[0080] According to the structure described above, it is possible to provide a camera device that can adjust the field of view within a desired range of directional angles.

[0081] Furthermore, it is possible to provide a camera device that minimizes changes in the field of view due to manufacturing tolerances of the camera module or tolerances that occur when it is mounted on a vehicle.

[0082] Furthermore, it is possible to provide a camera device that can minimize changes in the field of view caused by external forces or vibrations during or after the vehicle installation process.

[0083] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above as being combined as a single entity or operating in combination, the present invention is not necessarily limited to such embodiments. That is, within the scope of the purpose of the present invention, all of its components can also be selectively combined and operated as one or more entities. Furthermore, unless otherwise stated, terms such as "includes," "constitutes," or "has" above mean that the component in question may be inherent, and should be interpreted as including other components rather than excluding them. All terms, including technical and scientific terms, have the same meaning as they would be generally understood by a person of ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention pertains, unless otherwise defined.
