The first leaf 430 and the second leaf 440 can adjust the amount of light that has passed through the lens module 40 in response to the movement of the aperture magnet 410. More specifically, when power is supplied to the aperture coil 420, the surrounding of the rod 421 becomes an electromagnet to move the aperture magnet 410 and allow the slider 450 to move integrally with the aperture magnet 410, whereby the first leaf 430 and the second leaf 440 can rotatably move in opposite directions to each other around the fixed axis portion 460 in response to the movement of the slider 450.

That is, the base 500 may be fixed to the PCB 10 by an active alignment process. At this time, the active alignment process is a process of aligning the optical axis of the lens module 40 fixed to the lens drive mechanism with the optical axis of the image sensor 20 of the PCB 10, wherein the active alignment adhesive 70 may be initially hardened by ultraviolet (UV) rays and finally hardened by heat. That is, the base 500 initially hardens to the PCB 10 while the optical axis of the lens module 40 is aligned with the optical axis of the image sensor 20, wherein the camera module in this state may be finally hardened in an oven and the assembly may be completed.

[0167] Although the foregoing description has been explained about the first to third exemplary embodiments using the drawings, a modification according to the present invention may be a combined shape in which any one of the three exemplary embodiments and another exemplary embodiment are combined.

[0168] Now, hereinafter, the operation of the camera module according to the exemplary embodiment will be described.

[0169] First, the autofocus function of the camera module according to the exemplary embodiment will be described through the first exemplary embodiment. When the drive coil part 320 is powered, the drive magnet part 220 can perform movement relative to the drive coil part 320 in response to the electromagnetic interaction between the drive coil part 320 and the drive magnet part 220. At this time, the coil frame 210 connected to the drive magnet part 220 can move integrally with the drive magnet part 220. That is, the coil frame 210 connected to the inside of the lens module 40 can move relative to the housing 310 in the optical axis direction (up / down direction, vertical direction). This movement of the coil frame 210 can cause the lens module 40 to be close to the image sensor 20 or away from the image sensor 20, whereby the focal length adjustment relative to the object can be achieved by powering the drive coil part 320 according to this exemplary embodiment.

[0170] At the same time, the camera module according to the first exemplary embodiment of the present invention can be applied with automatic focusing feedback so as to implement a more accurate implementation of the automatic focusing function. The automatic focusing (AF) sensor part 800 arranged at the housing 310 and formed in the form of a Hall sensor can detect the magnetic field of the driving magnet part 220 fixed to the coil frame 210. Therefore, when the coil frame 210 performs relative movement relative to the housing 310, the automatic focusing sensor part 800 can detect the movement of the coil frame 210 in the z-axis direction or the real-time position of the coil frame 210 and transmit the detection value to the controller 50. The controller 50 can determine whether to perform additional movement relative to the coil frame 210 by the received detection value. This process is generated in real time, whereby the automatic focusing function of the camera module according to the first exemplary embodiment can be implemented more accurately by automatic focusing feedback.

[0171] In addition, the aperture can be driven in the camera module according to the first exemplary embodiment. When power is supplied to the aperture coil 420, the aperture magnet 410 can move relative to the aperture coil 420 in response to the electromagnetic interaction between the aperture coil 420 and the aperture magnet 410. At this time, the first leaf-shaped member 430 and the second leaf-shaped member 440 interacting with the aperture magnet 410 move in opposite directions to each other to adjust the size of the through hole through which light passes. That is, in the present exemplary embodiment, the amount of light incident on the lens module 40 (the diameter of the light) can be adjusted by supplying power to the aperture coil 420.

[0172] Furthermore, the feedback control of the aperture driving can be applied to the camera module according to the present invention. The feedback control function of the aperture driving of the camera module according to the present exemplary embodiment will be described through the third exemplary embodiment.

[0173] The aperture sensor portion 700 disposed at the support member 600 may detect the position of the aperture magnet 410, and the position of the aperture magnet 410 detected by the aperture sensor portion 700 may be transmitted to the controller 50. The controller 50 may determine whether to perform additional movement of the first leaf 430 and the second leaf 440 relative to the aperture unit 400 through the received detection value. This process is generated in real time, so that in the present exemplary embodiment, the aperture driving may be implemented more accurately.

[0174] Although the present disclosure has been described, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, wherein all constituent elements forming the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are combined in one embodiment, or operate in one embodiment. That is, as long as it is within the scope of the purpose of the present invention, all elements can be operated by allowing one or more elements to be selectively combined.

[0175] Furthermore, terms such as “includes,” “including,” “have,” “having,” “comprises,” and / or “comprising” as used herein mean that unless otherwise stated, the relevant elements are embedded such that the mentioned elements are not excluded but may be further included.
