Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of camera module technology, and particularly to a periscope lens and a periscope camera module and a method for manufacturing the same, as well as a periscope array module and electronic device. Background Technology
[0002] With advancements in science and technology and economic development, people have increasingly higher demands for the camera functions of portable electronic devices (such as tablets, iPads, and smartphones). They not only require the camera modules to achieve background blur and clear nighttime shots, but also optical zoom capabilities. Periscope array camera modules, as a type of camera module with strong optical zoom capabilities, are gaining increasing popularity and attention.
[0003] Currently, existing periscope array modules are typically composed of a periscope telephoto camera module and a vertical wide-angle camera module. The periscope telephoto camera module works by adding a prism to the front of a conventional telephoto camera module. This reflects or refracts the light incident on the end of the camera module, changing its direction before it enters the camera module. This allows the conventional telephoto camera module to be installed horizontally, reducing the overall height of the camera module. Furthermore, when increasing the focal length of the periscope telephoto camera module to improve its optical zoom capability, the length of the periscope telephoto camera module increases, but its height does not increase. Consequently, the height of the periscope array module also remains unchanged, thus avoiding an increase in the thickness of the electronic device incorporating the periscope array module.
[0004] However, to keep pace with the current trend towards thinner and lighter electronic devices, it is necessary to further reduce the height of the periscope array module, specifically the periscope telephoto camera module. In existing periscope telephoto camera module designs, the optical lens comprises a set of lenses and a lens barrel, with the lens barrel covering the set of lenses. The size of the first lens in this set is larger than the sizes of the other lenses, resulting in the optical lens being slightly taller than the first lens. Consequently, the height of the existing periscope telephoto camera module inevitably exceeds the size of the first lens, preventing further reduction in height. This means that the existing periscope telephoto camera module cannot meet the current demand for thinner and lighter electronic devices, significantly limiting its application and widespread adoption in various electronic devices.

[0093] The following description is intended to disclose the present invention and enable those skilled in the art to implement it. The preferred embodiments described below are merely examples, and other obvious variations will occur to those skilled in the art. The basic principles of the invention defined in the following description can be applied to other embodiments, modifications, improvements, equivalents, and other technical solutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the invention.
[0094] Those skilled in the art should understand that, in the disclosure of this invention, the terms "longitudinal," "lateral," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the above terms should not be construed as limiting this invention.
[0095] In this invention, the term "a" in the claims and specification should be understood as "one or more," that is, in one embodiment, the number of an element can be one, while in another embodiment, the number of the element can be multiple. Unless explicitly indicated in the disclosure of this invention that the number of the element is only one, the term "a" should not be construed as unique or single, and the term "a" should not be construed as a limitation on the quantity.
[0096] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that terms such as "first," "second," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. In the description of this invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, terms such as "connected" or "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, it can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through a medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.
[0097] In the description of this specification, the references to terms such as "one embodiment," "some embodiments," "example," "specific example," or "some examples," etc., indicate that a specific feature, structure, material, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment or example is included in at least one embodiment or example of the present invention. In this specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Furthermore, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples. Moreover, without contradiction, those skilled in the art can combine and integrate the different embodiments or examples described in this specification, as well as the features of different embodiments or examples.
[0098] See attached diagram. Figures 1 to 10 As shown, a periscope array module according to a first preferred embodiment of the present invention is illustrated. Figure 1 As shown, the periscope array module 1 includes at least one periscope camera module 10 and at least one vertical camera module 20, wherein the periscope camera module 10 and the vertical camera module 20 are combined to form the periscope array module 1 with different assembly layouts, and the periscope array module 1 has the function of "optical zoom".
[0099] It is worth mentioning that, although in the appendix Figures 1 to 10 The following description uses the periscope array module 1, which includes only one periscope camera module 10 and one upright camera module 20, as an example to illustrate the features and advantages of the periscope array module 1 of the present invention. However, those skilled in the art will understand that the appendix... Figures 1 to 10The periscope array module 1 disclosed in the following description is merely an example and does not constitute a limitation on the content and scope of the present invention. For example, in other examples of the periscope array module, the number of the periscope camera module 10 and the vertical camera module 20 may both exceed one, so as to improve the shooting effect of the periscope array module 1.
[0100] It is worth noting that in the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, the effective focal length of the vertical camera module 20 is less than that of the periscope camera module 10. That is, the field of view (FOV) of the vertical camera module 20 is greater than that of the periscope camera module 10. In other words, in the present invention, the vertical camera module 20 is configured as a wide-angle camera module, and the periscope camera module 10 is configured as a telephoto camera module. During shooting using the periscope array module, the vertical camera module 20 has a wider field of view, but it is difficult to capture clear details of distant objects. The periscope camera module 10, on the other hand, has a narrower field of view, but can capture relatively more distant objects. Thus, through the complementary combination of the vertical camera module 20 and the periscope camera module 10, the function of "optical zoom" is achieved. It should be understood that in this invention, the type of the vertical camera module 20 is not limited. For example, the vertical camera module 20 can be a well-known camera module such as a wide-angle camera module, a standard camera module, or a telephoto camera module, etc., which will not be described in detail here.
[0101] According to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 As shown, the periscope camera module 10 includes a photosensitive component 11, a periscope lens 12, and a light-directing component 13. Both the periscope lens 12 and the light-directing component 13 are positioned within the photosensitive path of the photosensitive component 11, with the periscope lens 12 located between the photosensitive component 11 and the light-directing component 13. The light-directing component 13 can change the direction of an imaging ray incident upon it, allowing the redirected imaging ray to travel along the photosensitive path of the photosensitive component 11, first passing through the periscope lens 12, and then being received by the photosensitive component 11 for imaging. In other words, the light-directing component 13 enables the imaging ray to pass through the periscope lens 12 after redirection, so that it can be received by the photosensitive component 11 for imaging. It should be understood that the imaging ray can be ambient light reflected from a spatial object or light emitted by the spatial object itself. The type of imaging ray is not limited in this invention, as long as it can be received by the photosensitive module 11 for imaging.
[0102] Preferably, such as Figures 1 to 3As shown, the light-directing component 13 can redirect light by 90 degrees, so that light rays perpendicular to the light-sensing path of the photosensitive component 11 are redirected by the light-directing component 13 and become parallel to the light-sensing path of the photosensitive component 11. This allows the periscope array module 1 to be mounted on an electronic device body 500 to assemble the electronic device, while the vertical camera module 20 is mounted vertically and the periscope camera module 10 is mounted horizontally. This reduces the height of the periscope array module 1 and prevents the height of the periscope array module 1 from exceeding the height of the electronic device body 500 (i.e., the thickness of the electronic device body 500), thus conforming to the current trend of thinner and lighter electronic devices.
[0103] For example, such as Figure 2A As shown, after the periscope array module 1 is assembled into an electronic device body 500, the vertical camera module 20 is arranged along the height direction of the electronic device body 500, while the photosensitive component 11, the periscope lens 12, and the light steering component 13 of the periscope camera module 10 are arranged along the width direction of the electronic device body 500, so that the optical axis of the periscope lens 12 is parallel to the width direction of the electronic device body 500. This avoids the periscope lens 12 from protruding beyond the front or rear surface of the electronic device body 500 due to excessive length, or from increasing the height (i.e., thickness) of the electronic device body 500. In other words, the height (i.e., thickness) of the electronic device body 500 is limited only by the height of the periscope lens 10, and is independent of the length or width of the periscope lens 10. This structure of the periscope camera module 10 of the present invention is particularly suitable for the telephoto periscope lens 12.
[0104] For example, such as Figure 2BAs shown, after the periscope array module 1 is assembled into an electronic device body 500, the vertical camera module 20 is arranged along the height direction of the electronic device body 500, while the photosensitive component 11, the periscope lens 12, and the light steering component 13 of the periscope camera module 10 are arranged along the length direction of the electronic device body 500, so that the optical axis of the periscope lens 12 is parallel to the length direction of the electronic device body 500. This avoids the periscope lens 12 from protruding beyond the front or rear surface of the electronic device body 500 due to excessive length, or from increasing the height (i.e., thickness) of the electronic device body 500. In other words, the height (i.e., thickness) of the electronic device body 500 is limited only by the height of the periscope lens 10, and is independent of the length or width of the periscope lens 10. This structure of the periscope camera module 10 of the present invention is particularly suitable for the telephoto periscope lens 12.
[0105] It is worth noting that, although in the attached figure Figure 2A and Figure 2B Taking the electronic device body 500 as an example of a smartphone body, the features and advantages of the periscope array module 1 of the present invention are illustrated. However, those skilled in the art should understand that the appendix... Figure 2A and Figure 2B The smartphone body described herein is merely an example and does not constitute a limitation on the content and scope of the present invention. For example, in other embodiments of the present invention, the electronic device body 500 may also be implemented as other electronic device bodies such as iPads, tablets, laptops, etc.
[0106] However, with the increasing trend towards thinner and lighter electronic devices, the height of the periscope camera module 10 remains a significant obstacle to reducing the overall height (i.e., thickness) of the electronic device. Therefore, reducing the height of the periscope camera module 10 has become an urgent problem to solve. It is worth noting that since the height of the periscope lens 12 directly determines the height of the periscope camera module 10, in the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, the height of the periscope lens 12 is reduced by designing its structure, thereby achieving the effect of reducing the height of the periscope camera module 10.
[0107] Specifically, such as Figures 3 to 5As shown, the periscope lens 12 of the periscope camera module 10 includes a lens barrel 121, a first lens group 122, and a second lens group 123. The radial dimension of the first lens group 122 is greater than the radial dimension of the second lens group 123. The first lens group 122 and the second lens group 123 are coaxially disposed in the lens barrel 121, and both the first lens group 122 and the second lens group 123 are located in the light-sensing path of the photosensitive component 11. The outer periphery of the first lens group 122 is partially covered by the lens barrel 121, and the outer periphery of the second lens group 123 is completely covered by the lens barrel 121, so that the height of the periscope lens 12 is not greater than the radial dimension of the first lens group 122.
[0108] It is worth mentioning that, although in the appendix Figures 1 to 10 The following description uses the first lens group 122, which includes one lens, and the second lens group 123, which includes four lenses, as examples to illustrate the features and advantages of the periscope camera module 10 of the present invention. Those skilled in the art will understand that the appendix... Figures 1 to 10 The periscope camera module 10 disclosed in the following description is merely an example and does not constitute a limitation on the content and scope of the present invention. For example, in other examples of the periscope camera module 10, the first lens group 122 may include two or more lenses, and the second lens group 123 may include one lens. Furthermore, the first lens group 122 and / or the second lens group 123 may include only convex lenses, only concave lenses, or both convex and concave lenses, as long as the desired light effect of the periscope lens 12 is achieved. This is not a limitation in the present invention.
[0109] More specifically, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the lens barrel 121 is provided with a light channel 1211, wherein the light channel 1211 extends along the light-sensing path of the photosensitive component 11, so as to allow the deflected imaging light to pass through the lens barrel 121 along the light channel 1211. The first lens group 122 and the second lens group 123 are coaxially mounted in the light channel 1211 of the lens barrel 121, so that the first lens group 122 and the second lens group 123 are located in the light-sensing path of the photosensitive component 11, such that the deflected imaging light passes through the first lens group 122 and the second lens group 123 before being received by the photosensitive component 11 and forming an image.
[0110] It is worth noting that, among all the lenses of the periscope lens 12 of the periscope camera module 10, the radial dimension of the lens closer to the light-directing assembly 13 is generally larger than the radial dimension of the lens farther from the light-directing assembly 12. Therefore, in the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the lens barrel 121 also has a first end 1212 adjacent to the light-directing assembly 13 and a second end 1213 adjacent to the photosensitive assembly 11, wherein the light channel 1211 extends from the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121 to the second end 1213 of the lens barrel 121, and the first lens group 122 is located at the first end 1211 of the lens barrel 121, and the second lens group 123 is located at the second end 1212 of the lens barrel 121, such that the imaging light rays deflected by the light-directing assembly 13 first pass through the first lens group 122, then through the second lens group 123, and are received by the photosensitive assembly 11 to form an image. In other words, the first lens group 122 of the optical lens 12 is located between the light-directing assembly 13 and the photosensitive assembly 11, and the second lens group 123 is located between the first lens group 122 and the photosensitive assembly 123, so that the imaging light after being deflected by the light-directing assembly 13 first passes through the first lens group 122, then through the second lens group 123, and is finally received by the photosensitive assembly 11 to form an image.
[0111] It is worth mentioning that in existing periscope camera modules, because the lens barrel of the optical lens of the existing periscope camera module completely covers the outer periphery of all lenses, and the lens barrel itself has a corresponding thickness, the height of the optical lens of the existing periscope camera module is inevitably greater than the radial dimension (or diameter) of all lenses.
[0112] However, in the periscope camera module 10 according to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 5 As shown, the lens barrel 121 of the periscope lens 12 of the periscope camera module 10 partially covers the outer periphery of the first lens group 122, and the upper and lower edges of the first lens group 122 are not covered by the lens barrel 121. This allows the height of the periscope lens 12 to be reduced to be equal to the radial dimension (or diameter) of the first lens group 122, thereby achieving the effect of reducing the height of the periscope camera module 10 to meet the current trend of thinner and lighter electronic devices.
[0113] It is worth noting that optical research has revealed, for example... Figure 4As shown, the first lens group 122 of the periscope lens 12 has an effective optical region 1221 and a non-effective optical region 1222. The effective optical region 1221 is located in the middle of the first lens group 122, and the non-effective optical region 1222 is located outside the first lens group 122 and arranged around the effective optical region 1221. That is, the non-effective optical region 1222 is located around the effective optical region 1221, and the effective optical region 1221 of the first lens group 122 corresponds to the optical channel 1211 of the lens barrel 121, such that the effective optical region 1221 of the first lens group 122 is used to converge the imaging light passing through the effective optical region 1221 of the first lens group 122, and the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 is used to contact the lens barrel 121 to fix the first lens group 122 to the lens barrel 121.
[0114] It should be understood that, since the main function of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 is to provide a contact surface corresponding to the lens barrel 121 to ensure that the effective optical region 1221 of the first lens group 122 is not contacted or blocked by the lens barrel 121, a part of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 can be exposed outside the lens barrel 121 to form an exposed part of the first lens group 122, and the other part of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 is covered by the lens barrel 121. Thus, while ensuring that the first lens group 122 is fixedly installed to the lens barrel 121, the converging effect of the first lens group 122 on the imaging light will not be affected.
[0115] Preferably, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the periscope lens 12's barrel 121 is further provided with at least one side opening 1210 located at the first end 1212 of the barrel 121. The at least one side opening 1210 is located in the height direction of the barrel 121 and communicates with the optical channel 1211 of the barrel 121. At least a portion of the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 121 can extend out from the corresponding at least one side opening 1210, so that the at least portion of the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 121 is exposed outside the barrel 121 in the height direction of the barrel 121, thereby reducing the height of the periscope lens 12.
[0116] For example, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the periscope lens 12's barrel 121 has at least one side opening 1210 including an upper opening 1214 and a lower opening 1215, wherein the upper opening 1214 and the lower opening 1215 are respectively connected to the optical channel 1211. When the first lens group 122 is installed in the optical channel 1211 of the barrel 121, an upper portion 12221 of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 extends from the upper opening 1214 of the barrel 121, so that the upper portion 12221 of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 extends from the upper opening 1214 of the barrel 121. 222 is exposed outside the lens barrel 121 to form an upper exposed portion; a lower portion 12222 of the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 extends from the lower opening 1215 of the lens barrel 121, so that the lower portion 12222 of the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 is exposed outside the lens barrel 121 to form a lower exposed portion, thereby making the height of the periscope lens 12 equal to the vertical dimension of the first lens group 122 (i.e., the radial dimension or diameter of the first lens group 122), so as to reduce the height of the periscope camera module 10.
[0117] It should be understood that, compared to existing periscope camera modules, the periscope lens 12 of the periscope camera module 10 according to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention reduces the thickness of the sidewalls of the two lens barrels 121 in the height direction. Therefore, even if all the lenses of the periscope lens 12 of the periscope camera module 10 are exactly the same as all the lenses in the optical lens of the existing periscope camera module, the height of the periscope camera module 10 will be smaller than that of the existing periscope camera module. This makes the periscope camera module 10 according to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention particularly suitable for the current trend of thinner and lighter electronic devices.
[0118] like Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the present invention further provides a first modified embodiment of the periscope lens 12 according to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, wherein the periscope lens 12 of the periscope camera module 10 further includes an opaque layer 124, wherein the opaque layer 124 is disposed to cover a portion of the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 corresponding to the at least one side opening 1210 of the lens barrel 121, so as to prevent stray light from entering the effective optical region 1221 of the first lens group 122 from the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122. At the same time, it can also prevent the imaging light from escaping from the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 and causing light leakage, thereby improving the shooting quality of the periscope camera module 10. It should be understood that the thickness of the opaque layer 124 is less than the thickness of the sidewall of the lens barrel 121, so as to ensure that the height of the periscope camera module 10 according to the first modified embodiment of the present invention is less than the height of the existing periscope camera module. More preferably, the opaque layer 124 is very thin to prevent the height of the periscope camera module 10 from being significantly increased due to the presence of the opaque layer 124.
[0119] For example, the opaque layer 124 is configured to cover the upper portion 12221 and the lower portion 12222 of the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122, so as to prevent stray light from entering the effective optical region 1221 of the first lens group 122 from the upper portion 12221 and the lower portion 12222 of the ineffective optical region 1222. At the same time, it can also prevent the imaging light from escaping from the upper portion 12221 and the lower portion 12222 of the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122, thereby improving the shooting quality of the periscope camera module 10.
[0120] Specifically, the opaque layer 124 may be, but is not limited to, made by coating an opaque material such as black glue, black paint, black pigment, black varnish, etc., to cover the upper portion 12221 and the lower portion 12222 of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122. It should be understood that because the opaque layer 124 is made by coating, it can have an extremely thin thickness, thereby minimizing the impact of the opaque layer 124 on the height of the periscope camera module 10.
[0121] For example, such as Figure 6As shown, after the first lens group 122 is installed to the lens barrel 121, a layer of black adhesive is applied to the upper portion 12221 and the lower portion 12222 of the non-effective optical area 1222 of the first lens group 122, so that after the black adhesive cures, an opaque layer 124 is formed covering the upper portion 12221 and the lower portion 12222 of the non-effective optical area 1222 of the first lens group 122. In other words, after the first lens group 122 is installed to the lens barrel 121, only a layer of black glue needs to be applied to the exposed part of the non-effective optical area 1222 of the first lens group 122. After the black glue cures, the opaque layer 124 covering the upper part 12221 and the lower part 12222 of the non-effective optical area 1222 of the first lens group 122 can be formed, which simplifies the complexity of the entire coating process and reduces the manufacturing difficulty of the opaque layer 124.
[0122] Additionally, for example, such as Figure 7 As shown, before installing the first lens group 122 to the lens barrel 121, a layer of black adhesive can be applied to the upper portion 12221 and the lower portion 12222 of the non-effective optical area 1222 of the first lens group 122, so that the opaque layer 124 is formed after the black adhesive cures, wherein the opaque layer 124 covers the upper portion 12221 and the lower portion 12222 of the non-effective optical area 1222 of the first lens group 122; then, the first lens group 122 is correspondingly installed on the lens barrel 121, and the upper and lower portions 12221 and 12222 of the non-effective optical area 1222 of the first lens group 122 are respectively corresponding to the upper and lower openings 1214 and 1215 of the lens barrel 121.
[0123] Appendix Figure 8A second modified embodiment of the periscope lens 12 according to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown, wherein the opaque layer 124 is disposed to cover all portions of the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 to prevent stray light from entering the effective optical region 1221 of the first lens group 122 via any position of the ineffective optical region 1222, or the imaging light from exiting via any position of the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122, thus preventing light leakage. It should be understood that since the opaque layer 124 covers all portions of the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122, an opaque material needs to be applied to the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 before mounting the first lens group 122 to the lens barrel 121 to form the opaque layer 124 in the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122.
[0124] For example, such as Figure 8 As shown, before installing the first lens group 122 to the lens barrel 121, a black adhesive is applied to all portions of the non-effective optical area 1222 of the first lens group 122, so that after the black adhesive cures, the opaque layer 124 covering all portions of the non-effective optical area 1222 of the first lens group 122 is formed.
[0125] According to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, the present invention further provides a method for manufacturing a periscope lens 12. For example... Figure 9 As shown, the manufacturing method of the periscope lens 12 includes the following steps:
[0126] S1: A second lens group 123 is installed in a light channel 1211 of a lens barrel 121, and the second lens group 123 is located at a second end 1213 of the lens barrel 121; and
[0127] S2: A first lens group 122 is installed in the optical channel 1211 of the lens barrel 121, and the first lens group 122 is located at a first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121, wherein the radial dimension of the first lens group 122 is greater than the radial dimension of the second lens group 123, and a portion of a non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 is exposed in the lens barrel 121 to form an exposed portion of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122.
[0128] Furthermore, the method for manufacturing the periscope lens 12 also includes the following steps:
[0129] S3: An opaque layer 124 is disposed on the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122, so as to cover the exposed portion of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 through the opaque layer 124.
[0130] It is worth noting that in step S3: a black adhesive is applied to the exposed portion of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122, so that after the black adhesive cures, an opaque layer 124 is formed covering the exposed portion of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122.
[0131] It should be understood that in the manufacturing method of the periscope lens 12, there is no restriction on the order of steps S1, S2 and S3. For example, step S2 can be performed first, followed by steps S1 and S3; or step S3 can be performed first, followed by steps S1 and S2, etc.
[0132] Furthermore, in the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 10 As shown, the manufacturing method of the periscope camera module 10 includes the following steps:
[0133] (A) A light steering component 13 is correspondingly positioned in the light-sensing path of a photosensitive component 11; and
[0134] (B) A periscope lens 12 is correspondingly provided in the light-sensing path of the photosensitive component 11, and the periscope lens 12 is located between the light-directing component 13 and the photosensitive component 11, wherein a first lens group 122 of the periscope lens 12 is partially covered by a lens barrel 121 of the periscope lens 12.
[0135] It should be understood that in the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, the order of the steps (A) and (B) is not limited. For example, the steps (B) can be performed first, and then the steps (A) can be performed.
[0136] It is worth mentioning that, since the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 of the periscope lens 12 has little impact on the working effect of the first lens group 122, therefore, as Figure 11 and Figure 12As shown, the present invention further provides a periscope lens 12A according to a second preferred embodiment of the present invention. Compared with the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, the periscope lens 12A of the second preferred embodiment of the present invention differs in that: the dimension of the first lens group 122A in the height direction of the lens barrel 121 is smaller than the radial dimension of the first lens group 122A. In other words, the dimension of the first lens group 122A in the height direction of the lens barrel 121 is smaller than the diameter of the first lens group 122A (i.e., the diameter of the first lens group 122), so as to further reduce the height of the periscope lens 12A, thereby further reducing the overall height of the periscope camera module.
[0137] Preferably, such as Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the first lens group 122A of the periscope lens 12A is provided with an effective optical region 1221 and a non-effective optical region 1222A, wherein the non-effective optical region 1222A is located around the effective optical region 1221, and the non-effective optical region 1222A is provided with at least one edge plane 12220A. When the first lens group 122A is mounted on the lens barrel 121, each edge plane 12220A corresponds to a corresponding side opening 1210 of the lens barrel 121, such that the dimension of the first lens group 122A in the height direction of the lens barrel 121 is smaller than the radial dimension of the first lens group 122A, thereby reducing the height of the periscope lens 12A.
[0138] For example, the at least one edge plane 12220A of the non-effective optical region 1222A of the first lens group 122A includes an upper edge plane 12223A and a lower edge plane 12224A, wherein the upper edge plane 12223A and the lower edge plane 12224A are parallel to each other, and the distance between the upper edge plane 12223A and the lower edge plane 12224A is less than the size of the first lens group 122A in the non-vertical direction (i.e., the non-height direction). When the first lens group 122A is mounted on the lens barrel 121, the upper edge plane 12223A and the lower edge plane 12224A of the non-effective optical region 1222A correspond to the upper opening 1214 and the lower opening 1215 of the lens barrel 121, respectively, to reduce the height of the periscope lens 12A, thereby reducing the height of the periscope camera module.
[0139] Preferably, such as Figure 11As shown, the distance between the upper edge plane 12223A and the lower edge plane 12224A of the non-effective optical region 1222A of the first lens group 122A is not greater than the height of the lens barrel 121A, so as to ensure that the upper edge plane 12223A and the lower edge plane 12224A of the first lens group 122A do not protrude from the upper opening 1214 and the lower opening 1215 of the lens barrel 121, respectively, to prevent increasing the height of the periscope lens 12A.
[0140] More preferably, such as Figure 11 As shown, the distance between the upper edge plane 12223A and the lower edge plane 12224A of the non-effective optical region 1222A of the first lens group 122A is equal to the height of the lens barrel 121A, so that when the first lens group 12 is mounted on the lens barrel 121, the upper edge plane 12223A and the lower edge plane 12224A of the first lens group 122A are respectively aligned with the outer sidewall of the lens barrel 121.
[0141] It is worth mentioning that, in the second preferred embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 12 As shown, the first lens group 122A can be manufactured by integral molding, die molding, or injection molding, such that after manufacturing, the first lens group 122A has a height dimension smaller than its radial dimension. For example, when the first lens group 122A is manufactured by die molding, it has a mutually parallel upper edge plane 12223A and a lower edge plane 12224A, and the distance between the upper edge plane 12223A and the lower edge plane 12224A is smaller than the radial dimension of the first lens group 122A, thereby simplifying the manufacturing process of the first lens group 122A. It should be understood that the first lens group 122A can be made of transparent materials such as plastic, glass, resin, etc., and this is not limited in the second preferred embodiment of the present invention.
[0142] It is worth noting that, such as Figure 13As shown, in the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, the first lens group 122 of the periscope camera module 10 typically has a circular cross-section, that is, the radial dimension of the first lens group 122 is equal in all directions. In other words, the upper portion 12221 and the lower portion 12222 of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 are both arc-shaped structures. Therefore, in some other embodiments of the present invention, the upper portion 12221 and the lower portion 12222 of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 can be cut off by cutting to form the upper edge plane 12223A and the lower edge plane 12224A of the non-effective optical region 1222A of the first lens group 122A.
[0143] For example, such as Figure 13 As shown, before installing the first lens group 122 to the lens barrel 121, the upper portion 12221 and the lower portion 12222 of the non-effective optical area 1222 of the first lens group 122 are cut off to form the first lens group 122A having the upper edge plane 12223A and the lower edge plane 12224A. Then, the first lens group 122A is installed to the lens barrel 121 to form the periscope lens 12A, such that the height of the periscope lens 12A is less than the radial dimension of the first lens group 122. Therefore, the height of the periscope camera module according to the second preferred embodiment of the present invention can be less than the height of the periscope camera module 10 according to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention. In other words, since the exposed portion of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 according to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention is removed to reduce the size of the first lens group 122 in the vertical direction (i.e., the height direction), the height of the periscope lens 12 is further reduced, thereby achieving the effect of further reducing the height of the periscope camera module 10.
[0144] It should be understood that, in another embodiment of the present invention, after the first lens group 122 is installed to the lens barrel 121, the exposed portion of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 may be cut off along the outer wall of the lens barrel 121. This is to ensure that the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 does not protrude from the lens barrel 121, while also ensuring that the upper edge plane 12223A and the lower edge plane 12224A of the first lens group 122A are aligned with the outer wall of the lens barrel 121, thereby minimizing the impact on the operation of the effective optical region 1221 of the first lens group 122 due to excessive cutting of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122.
[0145] It is worth mentioning that, in the second preferred embodiment of the present invention, since the upper edge plane 12223A and the lower edge plane 12224A of the non-effective optical region 1222A of the first lens group 122A are not covered by the lens barrel 121, in order to eliminate the interference of stray light on the first lens group 122A or to prevent light leakage from the first lens group 122A, such as Figure 14 As shown, the present invention further provides a modified embodiment of the periscope lens 12A according to the second preferred embodiment of the present invention, wherein the periscope lens 12A also includes the opaque layer 124, wherein the opaque layer 124 is disposed to cover the upper edge plane 12223A and the lower edge plane 12224A of the non-effective optical region 1222A of the first lens group 122A, so as to prevent stray light from entering the effective optical region 1221 of the first lens group 122A from the upper edge plane 12223A and the lower edge plane 12224A of the non-effective optical region 1222A of the first lens group 122A. At the same time, it can also prevent the imaging light from escaping from the upper edge plane 12223A and the lower edge plane 12224A of the non-effective optical region 1222A of the first lens group 122A and causing light leakage, thereby improving the shooting quality of the periscope camera module.
[0146] It is worth noting that, in the second preferred embodiment of the present invention, apart from the above-described structural differences, the other structures of the periscope camera module are the same as those of the periscope camera module 10 of the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the periscope camera module also has various modified embodiments similar to or the same as those of the periscope camera module 10 of the first preferred embodiment, which will not be described in detail here.
[0147] Since the first lens group 122 of the periscope camera module 10 according to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention typically has a circular cross-section, and a portion of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 is not covered by the lens barrel 121, the contact area between the first lens group 122 and the lens barrel 121 is reduced. This makes it easy for the first lens group 122, which is mounted behind the lens barrel 121, to become loose or rotate around the optical axis of the first lens group 122, thereby affecting the normal operation of the first lens group 122. In particular, when the opaque layer 124 only covers a portion of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122, once the first lens group 122 rotates, the non-effective optical region 1222 not covered by the opaque layer 124 will be exposed outside the lens barrel 121, thereby increasing the impact on the effective optical region 1221 of the first lens group 122. Therefore, the present invention further provides a periscope camera module according to a third preferred embodiment of the present invention.
[0148] See attached diagram. Figure 15 and Figure 16 As shown, the periscope lens 12B according to the third preferred embodiment of the present invention is illustrated. Compared to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, the periscope lens 12B according to the third preferred embodiment differs in that: the periscope lens 12B further includes at least one limiting element 126B and at least one limiting groove 127B corresponding to the limiting element 126B, wherein each limiting element 126B is disposed in the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122B, each limiting groove 127B is disposed at the first end 1212 of the first lens group 121B, and when the first lens group 122B is mounted on the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121B, each limiting element 126B is matched and coupled to the corresponding limiting groove 127B to limit the first lens group 122B to the lens barrel 121B, preventing the first lens group 122B from unintentionally or accidentally rotating.
[0149] Preferably, such as Figure 15 and Figure 16As shown, each of the limiting elements 126B is disposed on a left portion 12225 or a right portion 12226 of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122B. Correspondingly, each of the limiting grooves 127B is disposed on the left or right side of the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121B, so that when the first lens group 122B is installed on the lens barrel 121B, the limiting element 126B is coupled with the corresponding limiting groove 127B of the lens barrel 121B, to ensure that the upper and lower portions 12221, 12222 of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122B correspond to the upper and lower openings 1214, 1215 of the lens barrel 121, respectively. At the same time, it also prevents the height of the periscope lens 12B from increasing due to the provision of the limiting elements 126B or the limiting grooves 127B on the periscope lens 12B.
[0150] In the third preferred embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 15 and Figure 16 As shown, exemplarily, the first lens group 122B includes two limiting elements 126B, and the lens barrel 121B also includes two limiting grooves 127B. The two limiting elements 126B extend radially from the left portion 12225 and the right portion 12226 of the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122B, respectively, to form two protrusions in the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122B. The two limiting grooves 127B extend radially from the left and right portions 12225 and 12226 of the lens barrel 121B, respectively. The left and right sides of the first end 1212 are recessed inward to form two notches at the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121B that match the corresponding limiting elements 126B. When the first lens group 122B is installed in the lens barrel 121B, the limiting elements 126B are respectively inserted into the corresponding limiting grooves 127B so that the limiting elements 126B and the corresponding limiting grooves 127B engage, thereby facilitating the limiting fixation of the first lens group 122B to the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121B.
[0151] Preferably, such as Figure 16 As shown, the limiting element 126B extends integrally and protrudingly from the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122B to form the first lens group 122B with an integral structure. It should be understood that in some other embodiments of the present invention, the limiting element 126B may also be fixedly disposed in the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122B by means of gluing, welding, etc.
[0152] It is worth noting that, in the third preferred embodiment of the present invention, since the limiting element 126B is integrally formed in the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122B, that is, the limiting element 126B and the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122B are made of the same material, that is, the limiting element 126B is also made of light-transmitting material. When the first lens group 122B is installed in the lens barrel 121B, the limiting element 126B is located in the limiting groove 127B (i.e., the notch of the lens barrel 121B) of the lens barrel 121B. This can easily lead to the problem that some stray light may enter the effective optical region 1221 of the first lens group 122B through the limiting element 126B, or the imaging light entering the first lens group 122B may exit through the limiting element 126B and cause light leakage.
[0153] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, such as Figure 17 As shown, the present invention further provides a first modified embodiment of the periscope lens 12B according to the third preferred embodiment of the present invention, wherein the periscope lens 12B further includes the opaque layer 124, wherein the opaque layer 124 is disposed to cover the limiting element 126B to prevent stray light from entering the effective optical area 1221 of the first lens group 122B from the limiting element 126B. At the same time, it can also prevent the imaging light from escaping from the limiting element 126B and causing light leakage, thereby improving the shooting quality of the periscope camera module 10.
[0154] Preferably, such as Figure 17 As shown, the opaque layer 124 is configured to simultaneously cover the upper portion 12221 and the lower portion 12222 of the non-effective optical region 1222B of the limiting element 126B and the first lens group 122B, so as to minimize the interference of stray light or light leakage, thereby improving the shooting quality of the periscope camera module 10.
[0155] In addition, the attached diagram Figure 18 and Figure 19A second modified embodiment of the periscope lens 12B according to the third preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown, wherein at least one limiting element 126B of the periscope lens 12B is disposed at the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121B, and correspondingly, at least one limiting groove 127B of the periscope lens 12B is disposed in the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122B, and when the first lens group 122B is mounted on the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121B, each limiting element 126B is matched and coupled to the corresponding limiting groove 127B so as to limit the first lens group 122B to be fitted onto the lens barrel 121B.
[0156] like Figure 18 and Figure 19 As shown, the periscope lens 12B includes two limiting elements 126B and two limiting grooves 127B. The two limiting grooves 127B are recessed inward from the left portion 12225 and the right portion 12226 of the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122B, respectively, to form two notches in the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122B. The two limiting elements 126B extend inward from the left and right sides of the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121B towards... The optical channel 1211 extends protrudingly to form two protrusions within the optical channel 1211 of the lens barrel 121B that match the corresponding limiting grooves 127B. This allows the limiting elements 126B to be inserted into the corresponding limiting grooves 127B when the first lens group 122B is mounted on the lens barrel 121B, so that the limiting elements 126B engage with the corresponding limiting grooves 127B, facilitating the fixed first lens group 122B to the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121B. Simultaneously, the opaque layer 124 of the periscope lens 12B is configured to cover the upper portion 12221 and the lower portion 12222 of the non-effective optical area 1222 of the first lens group 122B, thereby improving the shooting quality of the periscope camera module.
[0157] It should be understood that, in the third preferred embodiment of the present invention, in order to further reduce the height of the periscope camera module 10B, the first lens group 122B having the upper edge plane 12223A and the lower edge plane 12224A can also be manufactured by molding, or the upper part 12221 and the lower part 12222 of the non-effective optical area 1222 of the first lens group 122B of the periscope lens 12B can be cut off by cutting. The specific technical solution is the same as that in the second preferred embodiment of the present invention, and will not be described again here.
[0158] It is worth noting that, in the third preferred embodiment of the present invention, apart from the above-described structural differences, the other structures of the periscope camera module are the same as those of the periscope camera module 10 of the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the periscope camera module also has various modified embodiments similar to or the same as those of the periscope camera module 10 of the first preferred embodiment, which will not be described in detail here.
[0159] Considering that the lens barrels 121 and 121B of the periscope lenses 12, 12A, and 12B in the periscope camera module 10 described in the above embodiments all need to simultaneously cover the entire second lens group 123 and most of the first lens groups 122, 122A, and 122B, the structure of the lens barrels 121 and 121B is complex, and a large amount of raw materials (usually black plastic) are required to manufacture the lens barrels 121 and 121B, resulting in a high manufacturing cost for the lens barrel 121. Therefore, in order to reduce the raw materials required to manufacture the lens barrels and thus reduce the manufacturing cost of the lens barrel 121, the present invention further provides a periscope lens according to a fourth preferred embodiment of the present invention.
[0160] Specifically, such as Figure 20 and Figure 21As shown, the periscope lens 12C according to the fourth preferred embodiment of the present invention is illustrated. Compared to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, the periscope lens 12C according to the fourth preferred embodiment differs in that: the periscope lens 12C further includes at least two positioning components 125C, wherein the two positioning components 125C are spaced apart between the lens barrel 121 and the first lens group 122, so as to positionally mount the first lens group 122 to the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121 via the two positioning components 125C. Meanwhile, since the lens barrel 121 only needs to cover the second lens group 123 and not the first lens group 122, the length of the lens barrel 121 can be significantly reduced in the fourth preferred embodiment of the present invention, thereby reducing the raw materials required to manufacture the lens barrel 121 and simplifying the structure of the lens barrel 121, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost of the lens barrel 121.
[0161] More specifically, such as Figure 20 and Figure 21 As shown, each positioning component 125C includes a positioning element 1251C and a positioning groove 1252C corresponding to the positioning element 1251C. The positioning element 1251C is disposed at the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121, and the positioning groove 1252C is correspondingly disposed at the non-effective optical area 1222 of the first lens group 122. The positioning element 1251C of the positioning component 125C can be inserted into the corresponding positioning groove 1252C for positioning coupling, so as to fix the first lens group 122 to the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121 in a positional manner.
[0162] For example, such as Figure 20 and Figure 21 As shown, the positioning element 1251C extends from the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121 toward the second end 1213 away from the lens barrel 121C, so as to form mutually spaced positioning elements 1251C at the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121C. The positioning groove 1252C is recessed from the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 along the radial direction of the first lens group 122, so as to form a notch corresponding to the positioning element 1251C in the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122, such that when the positioning element 1251C is inserted into the corresponding positioning groove 1252C for positioning coupling, the first lens group 122 is positioned and fixed to the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121.
[0163] It should be understood that in some other embodiments of the present invention, the positioning groove 1252C may also be recessed from the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 along the axial direction of the first lens group 122, so as to form a groove or through hole corresponding to the positioning element 1251C in the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122. This also enables the first lens group 122 to be fixed in a position to the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121 when the positioning element 1251C is inserted into the corresponding positioning groove 1252C for positioning coupling.
[0164] Preferably, such as Figure 21 As shown, the positioning element 1251C extends integrally from the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121 toward the second end 1213 away from the lens barrel 121C, forming a one-piece structure of the positioning element 1251C and the lens barrel 121. That is, the positioning element 1251C and the lens barrel 121 are manufactured by integral molding or injection molding. Of course, in some other embodiments of the present invention, the positioning element 1251C may also be fixedly disposed at the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121 by other means such as gluing, welding, etc.
[0165] It is worth noting that the positioning element 1251C and the positioning groove 1252C can be securely coupled together by means of an interference fit to firmly mount the first lens group 122 to the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121. In some other embodiments of the present invention, the positioning element 1251C and the positioning groove 1252C can also be securely coupled together by other means such as gluing or snap-fitting, as long as the first lens group 122 is securely mounted to the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121, and no limitation is made in the present invention.
[0166] In the fourth preferred embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 20 and Figure 21As shown, the at least two positioning components 125C of the periscope lens 12C are implemented as four positioning components 125C, wherein the four positioning slots 1252C of the four positioning components 125C are uniformly disposed in the non-effective optical area 1222 of the first lens group 122, and the four positioning elements 1251C of the four positioning components 125C are uniformly disposed at the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121 and located around the optical channel 1211 of the lens barrel 121. When the first lens group 122 is installed at the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121, the four positioning elements 1251C are coupled to the corresponding four positioning slots 1252C to tightly clamp the first lens group 122 between the four positioning elements 1251C and to correspondingly hold the first lens group 122 in the light channel 1211 of the lens barrel 121, thereby fixing the first lens group 122 in a position to the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121.
[0167] It should be understood that, although in the appendix Figure 20 and Figure 21 In the description of the fourth preferred embodiment, the periscope lens 12C includes four positioning components 125C as an example to illustrate the features and advantages of the periscope lens 12C of the present invention. However, those skilled in the art will understand that the appended... Figure 20 and Figure 21 The periscope lens 12C disclosed in the description of the fourth preferred embodiment is merely an example and does not constitute a limitation on the content and scope of the present invention. For example, in other examples of the periscope lens 12C, the number of positioning components 125C can be two, three or other numbers, so as to position the first lens group 122 on the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121.
[0168] Furthermore, in the fourth preferred embodiment of the present invention, as... Figure 20 As shown, the periscope lens 12C of the periscope camera module 10C further includes the opaque layer 124, wherein the opaque layer 124 is configured to cover the non-effective optical area 1222 of the first lens group 122 of the periscope lens 12C to prevent stray light interference or light leakage. It should be understood that, as described in the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, the opaque layer 124 can be fabricated by coating before the first lens group 122 is mounted on the lens barrel 121, or it can be fabricated by coating after the first lens group 122 is mounted on the lens barrel 121, as long as the opaque layer 124 covers all exposed portions of the non-effective optical area 1222 of the first lens group 122, which will not be elaborated further here.
[0169] It is worth mentioning that, attached Figure 22 and Figure 23 A modified embodiment of the periscope lens 12C according to the fourth preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown, wherein the positioning element 1251C of each positioning assembly 125C is disposed in the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122, and each positioning groove 1252C is correspondingly disposed in the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121, so that when the first lens group 122 is mounted in the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121, the positioning element 1251C of the positioning assembly 125C can be inserted into the corresponding positioning groove 1252C for positioning coupling, so as to fix the first lens group 122 in a positional manner to the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121.
[0170] For example, such as Figure 22 and Figure 23 As shown, the positioning element 1251C extends from the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 along the axial direction of the first lens group 122 to form mutually spaced positioning elements 1251C in the ineffective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122. The positioning groove 1252C is recessed from the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121 toward the second end 1212 to form a positioning groove 1252C corresponding to the positioning element 1251C in the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121, such that when the positioning element 1251C is inserted into the corresponding positioning groove 1252C for positioning coupling, the first lens group 122 is positioned and fixed to the first end 1212 of the lens barrel 121.
[0171] Preferably, such as Figure 23 As shown, the positioning element 1251C extends integrally from the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 along the axial direction of the first lens group 122 to form a first lens group 122 and the positioning element 1251C with an integral structure. That is, the positioning element 1251C and the first lens group 122 are manufactured by integral molding or injection molding. Of course, in some other embodiments of the present invention, the positioning element 1251C may also be fixedly disposed in the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 by other means such as gluing, welding, etc.
[0172] It is worth noting that, in the fourth preferred embodiment of the present invention, apart from the above-described structural differences, the other structures of the periscope lens 12C can be the same as those of the periscope lenses 12, 12A, or 12B of the first, second, or third preferred embodiments of the present invention. Furthermore, the periscope lens 12C can also have modified embodiments similar to or the same as those described above. For example, the upper portion 12221 and the lower portion 12222 of the non-effective optical region 1222 of the first lens group 122 of the periscope lens 12C can be cut off, which will not be elaborated here.
[0173] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the accompanying drawings are merely examples and do not limit the present invention. The objectives of the present invention have been fully and effectively achieved. The functions and structural principles of the present invention have been demonstrated and explained in the embodiments, and any variations or modifications may be made to the implementation of the present invention without departing from the stated principles.
