Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0036] Please refer to Figures 1-10 a lens driving device 100 is provided, which comprises a base 1, a support frame 2, a lens barrel support 4, an elastic assembly 5 and a flexible circuit board 11.

[0037] The support frame 2 has a receiving space 13, and the support frame 2 is supported on the base 1.

[0038] The housing 3 is covered on the base 1 and makes the support frame 2 located in the housing 3.

[0039] The lens barrel support 4 is received in the receiving space 13 and is used for mounting a lens group.

By fixing the first fixed arm 51 on the support frame 2 and the second fixed arm 54 on the top end of the lens barrel holder 4, the lens barrel holder 4 is connected to the support frame 2 by the elasticity of the plurality of elastic arms 14, thereby elastically supporting the lens barrel holder 4 in the accommodation space 13. In the present embodiment, each of the elastic arms 14 comprises a first elastic bending portion 52 directly bending and extending from the first fixed arm 51 towards the lens barrel holder 4, and a plurality of second elastic bending portions 53 bending and extending from the first elastic bending portion 52 towards the lens barrel holder 4 and connected to the second fixed arm 54; the curvature radius of the first elastic bending portion 52 is greater than that of the second elastic bending portion 53. The first elastic bending portion 52 is arranged close to the support frame 2, which is mainly used to bear the main deformation effect when the lens barrel holder 4 is twisted or emitted in the relative translation mode of the support frame 2. The plurality of second elastic bending portions 53 are arranged close to the lens barrel holder 4, which are mainly used for balance performance design and stress effect, and do not bear deformation. In this way, the lens barrel holder 4 is prevented from being twisted or translated by the cooperation of the first elastic bending portion 52 and the plurality of second elastic bending portions 53 under the action of the elastic assembly 5, thereby improving the anti-shake performance of the lens driving device 100.

When X / Y direction anti-shake work or X / Y direction falling occurs, the lens barrel holder 4 and the support frame 2 become relatively close or far away, the damping rubber 12 is not between them, so it is affected to a very small extent, only the large curvature bending portion moves slightly, the lens barrel holder 4 is more stable in shape, the anti-shake effect is better, and the production cost is also greatly reduced.

In the embodiment, the upper elastic sheet 15 is provided with a conductive path for realizing the transmission of electrical signals. For example, the upper elastic sheet 15 is an FPC, and the conductive path is realized by a conductive circuit on the FPC.

[0045] One end of the lower elastic sheet 6 is fixed to the bottom end of the support frame 2 along the optical axis direction, and the other end of the lower elastic sheet 6 is fixed to the bottom end of the lens barrel holder 4 along the optical axis direction; the upper elastic sheet 15 and the lower elastic sheet 6 jointly elastically support the lens barrel holder 4 in the accommodation space 13.

[0047] In the embodiment, the lens driving device 100 further includes a vibration reduction coil 9 fixed to the base 1, a magnetic steel 10 fixed to the support frame 2 and spaced apart from the vibration reduction coil 9, and an automatic focusing coil 8 fixed to the lens barrel holder 4 and spaced apart from the magnetic steel 10, the vibration reduction coil 9 and the magnetic steel 10 interact with each other and drive the support frame 2 to move along the direction perpendicular to the optical axis; the automatic focusing coil 8 and the magnetic steel 10 interact to drive the lens barrel holder 4 to move along the optical axis direction.

[0048] Among them, the lens barrel holder 4, the upper elastic sheet 15, the lower elastic sheet 6, the suspension wire 7, the automatic focusing coil 8, the vibration reduction coil 9, the magnetic steel 10 and the flexible circuit board 11 are all accommodated in the shell 3.

[0049] The suspension wires 7 are made of metal conductive material, and are arranged in multiple and spaced around the support frame 2. One end of each suspension wire 7 is fixed to the base 1, and the other end is fixed to the upper spring 15 and forms an electrical connection.

[0050] The anti-shake coil 9 is fixed to the base 1, and the magnetic steel 10 is fixed to the support frame 2 near the side of the lens barrel holder 4. The anti-shake coil 9 is located within the magnetic field of the magnetic steel 10 and drives the magnetic steel 10 to move in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis.

[0051] The magnetic steel 10 includes a first drive magnetic steel 101 fixed to opposite sides of the support frame 2 in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis, and a second drive magnetic steel 102 fixed to the other opposite sides of the support frame 2. Each magnetic steel 10 is single-pole magnetized. The opposite sides of the magnetic steel 10 are provided with a single magnetic pole.

[0052] The auto focus coil 8 is sleeved and fixed to the outer periphery of the lens barrel holder 4 and is spaced from the magnetic steel 10. The auto focus coil 8 is electrically connected to the upper spring 15. The magnetization direction of the magnetic steel 10 is parallel to the winding plane of the auto focus coil 8 and drives the auto focus coil 8 to move in the direction of the optical axis (Z-axis direction). By driving the lens barrel holder 4 to move in the direction of the optical axis by the auto focus coil 8, an auto focus (AF) function can be achieved. In this embodiment, the magnetization direction of the magnetic steel 10 is parallel to the winding plane of the auto focus coil 8.

That is, the first anti-shake coil 91 and the second anti-shake coil 92 are spaced and arranged in the radial direction of the lens barrel support 4. The structure arrangement makes the anti-shake coil 9 not occupy the space of the lens driving device 100 along the optical axis (Z-axis direction), effectively reduces the thickness of the lens driving device 100 along the optical axis direction, facilitates the thinness requirement of the product, and simplifies the assembly method and improves the assembly efficiency.

[0055] Preferably, the anti-shake coil 9 is pre-wound, and a plane in which the winding direction of the anti-shake coil 9 is located is perpendicular to the optical axis direction. Compared with the anti-shake driving mode of the multi-layer circuit board 11 structure in the prior art, the cost of the anti-shake driving mode formed by the structure can be greatly reduced.

[0056] In the embodiment, the flexible circuit board 11 is electrically connected with the auto-focusing coil 8 and the anti-shake coil 9 respectively.

[0057] The flexible circuit board 11 is also provided with a pin 111 part, which is convenient for connecting external signal lines.

[0058] The support frame 2 further comprises a first mounting groove 23 and a second mounting groove 24 recessed from opposite sides of the support frame 2 away from the lens barrel support 4, the first driving magnetic steel 101 is arranged in the first mounting groove 23, and the second driving magnetic steel 102 is arranged in the second mounting groove 24. The support frame 2 is used for supporting and fixing the upper spring plate 15 and the lower spring plate 6, and the first mounting groove 23 and the second mounting groove 24 are used for mounting the first driving magnetic steel 101 and the second driving magnetic steel 102 respectively, so that the first driving magnetic steel 101 and the second driving magnetic steel 102 save installation space in the lens driving device 100, and the structure of the lens driving device 100 is miniaturized as a whole.

[0059] In the embodiment, the support frame 2 is rectangular, the fixing structure 21 includes four and is located at the four corners of the support frame 2 respectively, the upper elastic sheet 15 includes two and is arranged in pairs, each upper elastic sheet 15 includes two elastic arms 14 spaced from each other. The four first elastic bending portions 52 correspond to the four fixing structures 21 respectively. In this way, the upper elastic sheet 15 is fixed on the fixing structure 21 through the damping glue 12, the fixing effect of the lens barrel holder 4 is improved, and the lens barrel holder 4 is more stable.

[0060] In the embodiment, the two upper elastic sheets 15 are arranged in pairs and jointly form a ring shape, and each upper elastic sheet 15 forms a conductive path. In this way, the positive and negative poles of the electrical signal can be transmitted. In the embodiment, the two upper elastic sheets 15 are arranged in pairs and are centrally symmetric about the lens barrel holder 4. Of course, the two upper elastic sheets 15 can also be an integral structure, and only two conductive paths need to be insulated from each other, which is easy to think of.

[0061] In the embodiment, the support frame 2 includes a main plastic surface 22 recessed away from the elastic arm 14 along the optical axis direction from the surface of the support frame 2 toward the elastic arm 14 and arranged spaced from the elastic arm 14, and the fixing structure 21 includes a protruding portion 211 protruding and extending from the side of the main plastic surface 22 close to the elastic arm 14 to the elastic arm 14, the protruding portion 211 is arranged spaced from the first elastic bending portion 52 and the damping glue 12 is attached to the protruding portion 211. By attaching and fixing the damping glue 12 on the main plastic surface 22, the support frame 2 and the upper elastic sheet 15 of the elastic assembly 5 are fixedly connected. By arranging the fixing structure 21 storing the damping glue 12 at the corresponding position of the support frame 2, a certain gap is reserved in the height direction of the upper elastic sheet 15 for the connection of the damping glue 12, and it is ensured that the upper elastic sheet 15 does not interfere with the support frame 2 during the movement of the mechanism; the protruding portion 211 of the damping glue 12 of the support frame 2 is arranged outside the position of the main plastic surface 22, which is higher than the main plastic surface 22, and there is a height difference with the surrounding structure, which ensures the shape of the damping glue 12 and prevents it from sliding along the external plane during extrusion, which is more stable.

[0062] Optionally, the protruding portion 211 is in a ring shape, and the damping glue 12 is partially arranged in the ring-shaped area of the protruding portion 211.

By arranging the glue groove 212 in the main plastic surface 22 and injecting the damping glue 12 in the glue groove 212, the fixing effect of the damping glue 12 and the support frame 2 can be increased. Preferably, the main plastic surface 22 is recessed to form the glue groove 212 away from the upper elastic sheet 15.

[0064] Specifically, the inner diameter of the protruding part 211 gradually increases from one end close to the glue groove 212 to one end away from the glue groove 212. This facilitates increasing the fixing area between the damping glue 12 and the fixing structure 21, and the fixing effect is good.

[0065] In the embodiment, the glue groove 212 is circular or square. The circular or square shape is convenient and stable in stress, and the fixing effect is good.

[0066] Of course, the glue groove 212 is not limited to the specific shapes (circular or square, etc.) described above, and can also be triangular, parallelogram, etc. As long as there is a height difference between the main plastic surface 22 and the protruding part 211, opening in the local part of the glue groove 212 also belongs to the protection scope of the present application.

[0067] In the embodiment, the damping glue 12 completely covers the first elastic bending part 52. The fixing effect between the first elastic bending part 52 and the support frame 2 is good, the elastic effect of the upper elastic sheet 15 is better, and the anti-shake effect is better. Alternatively, the damping glue 12 at least partially covers the main body or the whole of the first elastic bending part 52, which can save costs while achieving good fixing effect.

[0068] In the embodiment, the lower elastic sheet 6 comprises a third fixing arm 61 fixed to the support frame 2, a fourth fixing arm 63 fixed to the bottom end of the lens barrel holder 4, a third elastic bending part 62 connecting the third fixing arm 61 and the fourth fixing arm 63, and a fixing ring 64 fixed to the end of the fourth fixing arm 63. The fourth fixing arm 63 is fixedly connected with the bottom end of the lens barrel holder 4. The support stability of the lens barrel holder is increased.

[0069] In the embodiment, the fixing ring 64 is a circular structure.

[0070] In the embodiment, as shown in Figures 9-10 The lens driving device 100 can effectively achieve the OIS motor frequency response characteristic target through actual verification: the amplitude peak of the resonance point within 1KHz is significantly suppressed, the closed-loop debugging requirement and the anti-shake effect are met.

[0071] Compared with the related art, in the lens driving device, each elastic arm includes a first elastic bending part extending in a direction close to the lens barrel support from the first fixed arm and a plurality of second elastic bending parts extending in a direction close to the lens barrel from the first elastic bending part and connected to the second fixed arm; the curvature radius of the first elastic bending part is greater than that of the second elastic bending part, each first elastic bending part is arranged above a corresponding fixed structure and forms a gap with the corresponding fixed structure; the lens driving device further includes a plurality of damping rubbers, each damping rubber is arranged between the first elastic bending part and the support frame; the surface of the support frame corresponding to the first elastic bending part protrudes towards the first elastic bending part to form a fixed structure for fixing the damping rubber, the first elastic bending part and the fixed structure are fixedly connected through the damping rubber, and the damping rubber at least partially covers the first elastic bending part. In the above structure, the lens barrel moves up and down with a large stroke during normal focusing work or falling, but the position of the damping rubber is on the side of the elastic sheet close to the support frame along the optical axis, the first elastic bending part of the elastic assembly moves up and down with a small amount, and the damping rubber is not in the large pulling state caused by the conventional scheme, so it is more stable. When X / Y direction anti-shake work or X / Y direction falling occurs, the lens barrel support and the support frame relatively move close to or away from each other, the damping rubber is not between the two, so it is affected to a very small extent, only the large curvature bending part moves slightly, the lens barrel support is more stable, the anti-shake effect is better, and the production cost is also greatly reduced.

[0072] The above only describes the embodiments of the present application, and it should be pointed out that those skilled in the art can make improvements without departing from the concept of the present application, and these improvements are within the protection scope of the present application.
