Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of photographing equipment, and in particular to a camera module and electronic equipment. Background Art
[0002] As consumers use mobile devices to take pictures more frequently, the demand for camera modules that can provide high zoom magnifications has also increased. In order to increase the zoom magnification, it may be necessary to increase the distance (focal length) that the light incident on the camera moves to the image sensor, that is, the total optical system length (TTL) of the module needs to be increased due to the bottleneck of the focal length. In addition, in order to achieve a relatively long total optical system length, it may be necessary to increase the length of the camera. Typically, a camera provided in an electronic device such as a smart phone may include a lens and an image sensor arranged in a direction toward the front surface or rear surface of the electronic device. However, in order to increase the total length of the optical system, the distance between the object side lens and the image sensor may need to be increased, which may increase the size of the area between the front surface and the rear surface of the electronic device. That is, increasing the total length of the optical system may increase the thickness of the electronic device.
[0003] In order to provide high zoom magnification without significantly increasing the thickness of the electronic device, the camera module uses a reflective structure to reflect the light 90 degrees and then places the image sensor at 90 degrees, thereby reducing the overall height of the module. However, the module length will increase. A module length that is too large will increase the difficulty of assembling the camera module in the electronic device, resulting in higher costs. Summary of the invention
[0004] The present application provides a camera module and an electronic device, wherein the focal length of the camera module is large and the module size is small.
[0005] In a first aspect, a camera module is provided. The camera module includes a motor, a lens, a prism and an image sensor. The motor has an installation space and an escape space connected to the installation space. The installation space is located in the middle of the motor and runs from the top of the motor to the bottom of the motor. The escape space is located at the bottom of the motor. The escape space is connected to the installation space and extends to one side of the motor. The lens is installed in the installation space. The prism is located on the bottom side of the motor and is partially located in the escape space. The prism includes an incident surface and an exit surface. The incident surface faces the lens. The incident surface and the exit surface are located on the same side of the prism. The exit surface is exposed relative to the motor. The image sensor is located on the side of the prism facing the lens and is arranged facing the exit surface. Among them, after the light passes through the lens, it enters the prism from the incident surface, and after multiple reflections inside the prism, it is emitted from the exit surface and imaged on the image sensor.
[0006] It is understandable that the camera module of the present application changes the optical path by setting a prism, so that the lens and the prism are arranged at the module height, and the image sensor and the prism are also arranged at the module height, thereby effectively reducing the module length. The lens and the image sensor are arranged on the same side of the prism, which effectively reduces the module height. At the same time, the present application also arranges the prism, motor and image sensor more compactly by setting an avoidance space inside the motor and locating part of the prism in the avoidance space, thereby further reducing the module height, making the overall module size of the camera module smaller, which is conducive to realizing the miniaturization of the camera module.
[0007] In addition, the lens and the image sensor are arranged on the same side of the prism, so that the optical axis of the lens is in a normal relationship with the incident surface and the exit surface of the prism. At the same time, the phase surface of the image sensor is in a normal relationship with the optical axis of the lens and is parallel to the exit surface of the prism. When light passes through the lens and is incident on the prism, the light will be reflected multiple times inside the prism, and then emitted from the exit surface and imaged on the image sensor. In this way, the light can be reflected multiple times inside the prism before being imaged on the image sensor, so that the optical path can be folded, effectively increasing the focal length of the camera module and the total track length (TTL) of the optical system. In other words, the camera module of the present application can increase the total length of the optical system by setting a prism to reflect the light multiple times without increasing the physical length of the module, so that the camera module can achieve a miniaturized setting while obtaining a larger focal length.
[0008] In addition, when the motor drives the lens to move to achieve the anti-shake function, its movement mode is translation, which can avoid the rotation of the reflector in the periscope optical system, causing the image to rotate in the field of view and improve the image quality. At the same time, the motor in this embodiment is an integrated motor, and its structure is simpler, which is conducive to reducing the manufacturing cost of the entire camera module.
[0009] In a possible implementation, the motor includes a fixing seat, a driving assembly and a carrier, the driving assembly and the carrier are both installed on the inner side of the fixing seat, the driving assembly is used to drive the carrier to move, and the lens is fixed on the inner side of the carrier. The avoidance space is at least partially formed on the fixing seat. In this way, the structure of the motor is simpler, which is conducive to reducing the manufacturing cost of the entire camera module.
[0010] In a possible implementation, a glue overflow groove is formed between the carrier and the lens, and the glue overflow groove includes a first part, a second part, and a third part that are connected in sequence, the first part, the second part, and the third part are arranged in the optical axis direction of the lens, the width of the first part is greater than the width of the second part and the width of the third part, and the width of the second part is greater than the width of the third part. In this way, by providing the glue overflow groove, the lens and the carrier can be more firmly connected when they are bonded by glue.
[0011] In a possible implementation, the width of the first portion is greater than or equal to 0.5 mm. Alternatively, the carrier has a glue flow slope facing the second portion, and the glue flow slope forms an angle less than or equal to 60° with the optical axis direction of the lens. Alternatively, the width of the third portion is in the range of 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm. In this way, by changing the shape of the glue overflow groove, the distance between the carrier and the lens is sufficient, thereby preventing glue from overflowing.
[0012] In a possible implementation, the prism further includes a first reflection surface, a second reflection surface, and a third reflection surface. In the optical axis direction of the lens, the first reflection surface is located at the bottom side of the incident surface, and an angle is formed between the first reflection surface and the incident surface. The second reflection surface and the incident surface are located on the same side of the prism, and the second reflection surface is located between the incident surface and the exit surface. In the optical axis direction of the lens, the third reflection surface is located at the bottom side of the exit surface, and an angle is formed between the third reflection surface and the exit surface. After the light enters the prism from the incident surface, it is reflected on the first reflection surface, the second reflection surface, and the third reflection surface in sequence, and then emitted from the exit surface.
[0013] It is understandable that the prism in the camera module of the present application has multiple reflective surfaces. After the light enters the prism from the incident surface of the prism, the light can be reflected multiple times between the multiple reflective surfaces until it is emitted from the exit surface and imaged on the image sensor. Among them, the light can be reflected three or more odd times inside the prism, so that the light path can be effectively folded, and the focal length of the camera module and the total length of the optical system can be increased. In other words, the camera module of the present application can increase the total length of the optical system by setting a prism and setting multiple reflective surfaces inside the prism to reflect the light multiple times without increasing the physical length of the module, so that the camera module can achieve a miniaturized setting while obtaining a larger focal length.
[0014] In a possible implementation, the prism further includes a light-blocking layer, which is located between the first reflecting surface and the third reflecting surface, and is used to block light, and the middle and upper parts of the light-blocking layer form a light-transmitting area. In this way, by arranging the light-blocking layer inside the prism to block light, stray light outside the light-transmitting area can be prevented from passing through and affecting image quality.
[0015] In a possible implementation, the prism further includes a first side surface and a second side surface, the first side surface and the second side surface are respectively located on both sides of the incident surface and the exit surface, the first side surface is parallel to the second side surface, and a light shielding layer is provided on the first side surface and the second side surface. In this way, by providing a light shielding layer on the first side surface and the second side surface, stray light in the camera module can be prevented from entering the prism and affecting the image quality.
[0016] In a possible implementation, the prism further includes a first side surface and a second side surface, the first side surface and the second side surface are respectively located on both sides of the incident surface and the exit surface, the first side surface and the second side surface form an angle, the spacing between the first side surface and the second side surface increases in a direction away from the incident surface, and the first side surface and the second side surface are provided with a shading layer. In this way, by providing a shading layer on the first side surface and the second side surface, stray light in the camera module can be prevented from entering the prism and affecting the image quality. In addition, even if stray light enters the interior of the prism, by increasing the spacing between the first side surface and the second side surface in a direction away from the incident surface, the stray light entering the interior of the prism can increase the number of reflections in the prism, or the stray light can be totally reflected in the prism 30, so that the stray light can eventually be absorbed by the first side surface or the second side surface, thereby preventing the stray light from being imaged on the image sensor and eliminating the influence of the stray light on the image quality.
[0017] In a possible implementation, the prism is provided with a groove. The opening of the groove is formed on the first side surface, the second side surface and the bottom surface of the prism. The groove wall of the groove is used to form a light-blocking layer. In this way, by providing the groove, it is conducive to forming a light-blocking layer, thereby preventing stray light outside the light-transmitting area of the light-blocking layer from passing through and affecting the image quality.
[0018] In a possible implementation, the camera module further includes a prism bracket, which is located at the bottom side of the motor and the image sensor, and the prism is fixed to the inner side of the prism bracket. In this way, by fixing the prism to the prism bracket, the structural stability of the entire camera module can be effectively improved, and the prism can be prevented from shaking and affecting the image quality.
[0019] In a possible implementation, the prism bracket is provided with a receiving space, the wall of the receiving space is provided with a plurality of overflow glue grooves, the prism is located in the receiving space, and is fixedly connected to the wall of the receiving space through the glue layer. In this way, by providing the overflow glue grooves, the adhesive force of the glue can be effectively increased, thereby improving the structural stability between the prism and the prism bracket.
[0020] In one possible implementation, the motor is used to drive the lens to move in the direction of the optical axis of the lens, and is also used to drive the lens to move in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis of the lens. In this way, the motor is an integrated motor with both autofocus and optical image stabilization functions, and the structure of the motor is simpler, which is conducive to reducing the manufacturing cost of the entire camera module.
[0021] In one possible implementation, the fixing seat includes a base. The carrier includes a focus bracket and an anti-shake bracket. The focus bracket is movably connected to the base. The anti-shake bracket is movably connected to the focus bracket. The driving assembly is installed on the base. The lens is fixed to the anti-shake bracket. The driving assembly is used to drive the focus bracket to drive the anti-shake bracket to move relative to the base, and the driving assembly is also used to drive the anti-shake bracket to move relative to the focus bracket. In this way, the motor is an integrated motor with both anti-shake and focus functions. The focus function is achieved by moving the focus bracket relative to the carrier, and the anti-shake function is achieved by moving the anti-shake bracket relative to the focus bracket. Compared with a split lens motor in which the focus bracket and the anti-shake bracket are separately arranged, the motor of the present application is smaller in size, which is conducive to realizing the miniaturization of the motor and saving the internal space of the camera module.
[0022] In one possible implementation, the base is provided with a first avoidance groove. The first avoidance groove runs through the bottom of the base. The focus bracket is provided with a second avoidance groove, and the second avoidance groove is connected to the bottom space of the anti-shake bracket and the first avoidance groove. The first avoidance groove, the second avoidance groove and the bottom space of the anti-shake bracket constitute an avoidance space. It can be understood that the motor in the camera module of the present application is provided with an avoidance space, and at least part of the prism can be located in the avoidance space, so that the motor can sink relative to the prism to reduce the height of the motor, thereby achieving an overall reduction in the height of the camera module, which is conducive to realizing a thin setting of the camera module. At the same time, the overall structure of the camera module is more compact, which is conducive to saving space.
[0023] In a possible implementation, the camera module further includes a filter. The filter is located between the prism and the image sensor. The filter is arranged opposite to the exit surface, or the filter is located between the prism and the lens, and the filter is arranged opposite to the incident surface. In this way, by arranging the filter and arranging the filter opposite to the exit surface or the incident surface, the light can pass through the filter before entering the image sensor, thereby filtering out invisible light and effectively improving the image quality.
[0024] In a possible implementation, the camera module further includes a fixing member, and the filter is fixedly connected to the prism via the fixing member. In this way, the filter can be more firmly fixed on the prism, which is conducive to improving the structural stability of the camera module.
[0025] In a possible implementation, the camera module further includes a circuit board, a fixing member, and a filter. The image sensor is fixedly connected to the circuit board and electrically connected to the circuit board. The filter is fixedly connected to the circuit board through the fixing member. The filter is located between the exit surface of the prism and the image sensor. In this way, the filter can be more firmly fixed on the circuit board, which is conducive to improving the structural stability of the camera module.
[0026] In a possible implementation, the camera module further includes a filter. The filter is disposed on the prism through a coating process or a film-sticking process, and covers the incident surface and / or the exit surface. In this way, the filter is directly disposed on the prism, which can save space for the fixing parts and make the structure of the camera module more compact.
[0027] In a second aspect, an electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes an image processor and the above-mentioned camera module. The image processor is communicatively connected with the camera module. The image processor is used to obtain image data from the camera module and process the image data.

[0063] For ease of understanding, the English abbreviations and related technical terms involved in the embodiments of the present application are explained and described below.
[0064] Focal power is equal to the difference between the convergence of the image-side beam and the convergence of the object-side beam. It characterizes the ability of an optical system to deflect light.
[0065] A lens or lens group with positive optical power has a positive focal length and has the effect of converging light.
[0066] A lens or lens group with negative optical power has a negative focal length and has the effect of diverging light.
[0067] Focal length, also known as focal length, is a measure of the convergence or divergence of light in an optical system. It refers to the vertical distance from the optical center of a lens or lens group to the focal plane when an infinitely distant scene forms a clear image on the focal plane through a lens or lens group. From a practical point of view, it can be understood as the distance from the center of the lens to the plane when the object is infinitely far away. For a fixed-focus lens, the position of its optical center is fixed; for a telephoto lens, the change of the optical center of the lens brings about a change in the focal length of the lens.
[0068] The effective focal length (EFL) of a lens refers to the distance from the center of the lens to the focus.
[0069] The object side is bounded by the lens. The side where the object is located is called the object side, and the surface of the lens close to the object side is called the object side.
[0070] The image side is bounded by the lens. The side where the image of the object is located is called the image side, and the surface of the lens close to the image side is called the image side.
[0071] The aperture diaphragm is a device used to control the amount of light that passes through the lens and enters the photosensitive surface inside the camera body. It is usually inside the lens.
[0072] Aperture value, also known as F number (Fno), is the relative value obtained by dividing the focal length of the lens by the diameter of the lens entrance pupil (the inverse of the relative aperture). The smaller the aperture value, the more light enters in the same unit time. The larger the aperture value, the smaller the depth of field, and the background content of the photo will be blurred, similar to the effect of a telephoto lens.
[0073] Total track length (TTL) refers to the total length from the surface of the lens closest to the object side to the imaging surface. TTL is the main factor affecting the height of the camera.
[0074] The imaging plane is located on the image side of all lenses in the telephoto lens, and is the plane on which the image is formed after light passes through each lens in the telephoto lens in sequence.
[0075] The optical axis is an axis that passes vertically through the center of the lens. The optical axis of the lens is the axis that passes through the center of each lens of the lens. When light parallel to the optical axis enters a convex lens, the ideal convex lens should have all the light converge at one point behind the lens. This point where all the light converges is the focus.
[0076] Focus is the point where parallel light rays converge after being refracted by a lens or lens group.
[0077] The image focal plane, also called the back focal plane or the second focal plane, is a plane passing through the image focus (also called the back focus or the second focus) and perpendicular to the optical axis of the system.
[0078] The Abbe number, or dispersion coefficient, is the difference ratio of the refractive index of an optical material at different wavelengths, representing the degree of dispersion of the material.
[0079] Aberration, the paraxial region of the optical system has the properties of an ideal optical system. The paraxial light emitted from a point on the object intersects the image plane at one point (also known as the paraxial image point). However, the light that actually passes through different apertures of the lens is difficult to intersect perfectly at one point, but has a certain deviation from the position of the paraxial image point. These differences are collectively called aberrations.
[0080] Axial chromatic aberration (longitudinal spherical aberration), also known as longitudinal chromatic aberration or position chromatic aberration or axial aberration, is a beam of light parallel to the optical axis that converges at different positions before and after passing through the lens. This aberration is called position chromatic aberration or axial chromatic aberration. This is because the positions of the images of light of different wavelengths formed by the lens are different, so that the image-side focal planes of light of different colors cannot overlap when the final image is formed, and the complex light spreads out to form dispersion.
[0081] Distortion, also known as distortion, is the degree of distortion of the image formed by the optical system relative to the object itself. Distortion is due to the influence of aperture spherical aberration. The height of the intersection of the main light of different fields of view with the Gaussian image plane after passing through the optical system is not equal to the ideal image height. The difference between the two is the distortion. Therefore, distortion only changes the imaging position of the off-axis object point on the ideal plane, causing the shape of the image to be distorted, but does not affect the clarity of the image.
[0082] ImgH (Image Hight) represents half of the diagonal length of the effective pixel area on the photosensitive chip, that is, the image height of the imaging surface.
[0083] Astigmatism, because the object point is not on the optical axis of the optical system, the light beam it emits has an inclination angle with the optical axis. After the light beam is refracted by the lens, the convergence point of its meridional beamlet and sagittal beamlet is not at the same point. That is, the light beam cannot be focused on one point, and the image is not clear, so astigmatism occurs. Meridian beamlet and sagittal beamlet are the names of light beams in two perpendicular planes in a rotationally symmetric optical system.
[0084] Meridian plane: The plane formed by the chief ray (chief light beam) of an object point outside the optical axis and the optical axis is called the meridian plane.
[0085] Sagittal plane: The plane that passes through the main ray (main light beam) of the object point outside the optical axis and is perpendicular to the meridian plane is called the sagittal plane.
[0086] Field curvature is used to indicate the difference between the clearest image point position of the non-central field of view light after passing through the optical lens group and the clearest image point position of the central field of view on the optical axis. When the lens has field curvature, the intersection point of the entire light beam does not coincide with the ideal image point. Although a clear image point can be obtained at each specific point, the entire image plane is a curved surface.
[0087] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Among them, in the description of the embodiments of the present application, unless otherwise specified, " / " means or, for example, A / B can mean A or B; "and / or" in the text is only a description of the association relationship of the associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships, for example, A and / or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, in the description of the embodiments of the present application, "multiple" refers to two or more than two. The terms "first", "second", and "third" are used only for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "first", "second", and "third" can explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.
[0088] Figure 1 It is a structural diagram of an electronic device 1000 provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 yes Figure 1 The electronic device 1000 is shown as a partial cross-sectional view of one embodiment along line AA.
[0089] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the electronic device 1000 can be a device with a camera module, such as a mobile phone, a tablet personal computer, a laptop computer, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a camera, a personal computer, a notebook computer, a vehicle-mounted device, a wearable device, augmented reality (AR) glasses, an AR helmet, virtual reality (VR) glasses or a VR helmet. Figure 1 The electronic device 1000 in the illustrated embodiment is described by taking a mobile phone as an example.
[0090] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the electronic device 1000 may include a camera module 100, a device housing 200, a screen 300, and an image processor (not shown). The camera module 100 may be a rear camera module or a front camera module. The image processor may be connected to the camera module 100 in communication. The image processor may be used to obtain image data from the camera module 100 and process the image data.
[0091] It should be noted that Figure 1 The following figures and the related drawings only schematically illustrate some components of the electronic device 1000, and the actual shapes, sizes, positions and structures of these components are not limited to the following. Figure 1 In addition, when the electronic device 1000 is a device of some other form, the electronic device 1000 may not include the screen 300 .
[0092] For ease of description, the width direction of the electronic device 1000 is defined as the X axis. The length direction of the electronic device 1000 is defined as the Y axis. The thickness direction of the electronic device 1000 is defined as the Z axis. It is understood that the coordinate system setting of the electronic device 1000 can be flexibly set according to specific actual needs.
[0093] In one embodiment, the device housing 200 may include a frame 201 and a back cover 202. The back cover 202 is fixed to the frame 201. Exemplarily, the back cover 202 may be fixedly connected to the frame 201 by adhesive. The back cover 202 may also be an integrally formed structure with the frame 201, that is, the back cover 202 and the frame 201 are an integral structure.
[0094] In addition, the screen 300 may be located on a side of the frame 201 away from the back cover 202. In this case, the screen 300 and the back cover 202 are located on both sides of the frame 201. The screen 300, the frame 201 and the back cover 202 together enclose the interior of the electronic device 1000. The interior of the electronic device 1000 may be used to place components of the electronic device 1000, such as a battery, a receiver or a microphone. The screen 300 may be a flat screen or a curved screen.
[0095] For example, the camera module 100 may be located inside the electronic device 1000. The camera module 100 may be fixed to the side of the screen 300 facing the back cover 202. The back cover 202 may be provided with a light-transmitting hole 203. The shape of the light-transmitting hole 203 is not limited to the shape of the light-transmitting hole 203. Figure 1 The light-transmitting hole 203 connects the inside of the electronic device 1000 to the outside of the electronic device 1000. Light outside the electronic device 1000 can enter the inside of the electronic device 1000 through the light-transmitting hole 203. The camera module 100 can collect ambient light entering the inside of the electronic device 1000.
[0096] Exemplarily, the camera module 100 may be a common camera module (i.e., the optical axis direction of the camera module 100 is the thickness direction of the electronic device 1000). In some embodiments, the camera module 100 may also be a periscope camera module (i.e., the optical axis direction of the camera module 100 is the width direction of the electronic device 1000).
[0097] Figure 3 yes Figure 1 A schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of a camera module 100 is shown. Figure 4 yes Figure 3 The exploded structural diagram of the camera module 100 is shown.
[0098] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the camera module 100 may include a camera assembly 1, a housing 2, and a cover plate 3. The camera assembly 1 may be disposed inside the housing 2. The cover plate 3 may cover at least a portion of the camera assembly 1 and cover the housing 2. At this time, at least a portion of the camera assembly 1 may be located between the cover plate 3 and the housing 2.
[0099] It should be understood that in this embodiment, the width direction of the camera module 100, that is, the length direction of the electronic device 1000, is the Y-axis direction. The length direction of the camera module 100, that is, the width direction of the electronic device 1000, is the X-axis direction. The thickness direction of the camera module 100, that is, the thickness direction of the electronic device 1000, is the Z-axis direction. In other embodiments, the coordinate system setting of the camera module 100 can be flexibly set according to specific actual needs.
[0100] The above specifically introduces the structures of the electronic device 1000 and the camera module 100 . The following specifically introduces the camera component 1 in the camera module 100 in conjunction with the relevant drawings.
[0101] Figure 5 yes Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the exploded structure of an embodiment of the camera assembly 1 is shown.
[0102] like Figure 5 As shown, the camera assembly 1 may include a motor 10, a lens 20, a prism 30, a prism bracket 40, a first light shielding sheet 50, a second light shielding sheet 60, an image sensor 71, a circuit board 72, a filter 73 and a fixing member 74. The filter 73 may be an infrared cutoff filter.
[0103] For example, the circuit board 72 may be a hard-soft circuit board or a flexible circuit board. The motor 10 may be electrically connected to the image sensor 71 through the circuit board 72. In some embodiments, a connector (not shown) may be further provided on the circuit board 72. The circuit board 72 may be electrically connected to a mainboard (not shown) of the electronic device 1000 through the connector.
[0104] Figure 6 yes Figure 5 The structure diagram of the prism bracket 40 shown is shown at another angle. Figure 7 yes Figure 5 A schematic structural diagram of a prism bracket 40 is shown.
[0105] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the prism bracket 40 may include a main body 41 and a support portion 42. The support portion 42 is connected to the main body 41. Among them, the main body 41 may be roughly in the form of a frame. At this time, the space enclosed by the support portion 42 and the main body 41 may constitute a accommodating space 43 of the prism bracket 40. It should be understood that in order to facilitate the description of the specific structure and shape of the prism bracket 40, the present embodiment divides the prism bracket 40 into two parts for description, but it does not affect the prism bracket 40 as an integrated structure. Among them, the integrated structure refers to two components obtained by an integrated molding process. In the process of forming one of the two components, the component is connected to the other component, and there is no need to connect the two components together by reprocessing (such as bonding, welding, snap connection, screw connection). In other embodiments, the support portion 42 may also be fixed to the main body 41 by bonding or other methods.
[0106] Exemplarily, the accommodating space 43 may have a first wall surface 431 and a second wall surface 432 that are arranged opposite to each other. In this embodiment, both the first wall surface 431 and the second wall surface 432 may be walls extending along the X-axis direction. Both the first wall surface 431 and the second wall surface 432 may be provided with a plurality of second overflow glue grooves 433 that are arranged at intervals. In one embodiment, the shape of the second overflow glue grooves 433 may be stripe-shaped.
[0107] Exemplarily, the support portion 42 may include a first upper surface 421, a step surface 422, and a second upper surface 423 connected in sequence. The first upper surface 421, the second upper surface 423, and the step surface 422 may all be located on a side of the support portion 42 away from the main body portion 41. The first upper surface 421 and the second upper surface 423 have a height difference. In this embodiment, the second upper surface 423 is higher than the first upper surface 421. At this time, the first upper surface 421 may sink relative to the second upper surface 423. It should be understood that the height referred to in this embodiment refers to the height in the Z-axis direction.
[0108] Exemplarily, the accommodating space 43 includes a first light-transmitting hole 424 and a second light-transmitting hole 425 that are connected to each other. The first light-transmitting hole 424 may penetrate the first upper surface 421 and the step surface 422. The second light-transmitting hole 425 may penetrate the second upper surface 423.
[0109] Exemplarily, the material of the prism holder 40 may be a polymer material (eg, PC, PA, LCP) or a metal material.
[0110] Figure 8 yes Figure 5 The structure of the prism 30 shown in one embodiment is schematically shown.
[0111] like Figure 8 As shown, the prism 30 may include a first surface 31, a second surface 32, a first side surface 33, a second side surface 34, a third side surface 35 and a fourth side surface 36. Among them, the first surface 31 can be arranged opposite to the second surface 32. The first surface 31 is also the top surface of the prism 30. The second surface 32 is also the bottom surface of the prism 30. The first side surface 33, the second side surface 34, the third side surface 35 and the fourth side surface 36 can all be connected between the first surface 31 and the second surface 32. The first side surface 33, the third side surface 35, the second side surface 34 and the fourth side surface 36 can be connected end to end in sequence. At this time, the first side surface 33 and the second side surface 34 can be located on both sides of the first surface 31 respectively.
[0112] Exemplarily, the first surface 31 includes an incident surface 30a and an exit surface 30b that are spaced apart. At this time, the incident surface 30a and the exit surface 30b can be located on the same side of the prism 30. After the light enters the prism 30 from the incident surface 30a, the light can be reflected multiple times inside the prism 30 and then emitted from the exit surface 30b. In other words, the incident surface 30a and the exit surface 30b can be transmission surfaces in the prism 30 for optical signal transmission. Among them, the reflection of the light inside the prism 30 can be ordinary reflection or total reflection. Exemplarily, when the incident angle of the light is close to or greater than the critical angle of the prism 30, the light can be totally reflected (TIR) inside the prism 30.
[0113] It is understood that the first surface 31 may be partially coated with an ink layer and partially uncoated with an ink layer, thereby forming the incident surface 30a and the exit surface 30b spaced apart in the area where the ink layer is not coated. Alternatively, a light shielding sheet may be provided on the first surface 31 so that part of the first surface 31 is light shielded and part is not light shielded. Thus, the incident surface 30a and the exit surface 30b spaced apart are formed in the unshielded part.
[0114] Exemplarily, the length of the prism 30 in a direction orthogonal to the optical axis (ie, the X-axis direction in this embodiment) may be greater than the length of the prism 30 in a direction parallel to the optical axis (ie, the Z-axis direction in this embodiment).
[0115] It should be noted that the specific configuration of the prism 30 will be described in detail later in conjunction with the relevant drawings and will not be repeated here.
[0116] Fig. 9 yes Figure 5 The structure diagram of the prism 30 and the prism bracket 40 is shown.
[0117] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Fig. 9 As shown, the prism 30 can be located in the accommodation space 43 of the prism bracket 40. At this time, the first side surface 33 of the prism 30 can be arranged opposite to the first wall surface 431 of the accommodation space 43. The second side surface 34 of the prism 30 (see Figure 8 ) can be arranged opposite to the second wall surface 432 of the accommodating space 43.
[0118] Exemplarily, glue can be applied to the multiple second overflow glue grooves 433 inside the prism bracket 40 to form a glue layer. At this time, the first side surface 33 of the prism 30 can be fixedly connected to the first wall surface 431 of the accommodating space 43 through the glue layer. The second side surface 34 of the prism 30 can be fixedly connected to the second wall surface 432 of the accommodating space 43 through the glue layer. It can be understood that by providing multiple second overflow glue grooves 433, the adhesive force of the glue can be effectively increased, so that the connection between the prism 30 and the prism bracket 40 is more firmly connected, which is conducive to improving the structural stability of the camera assembly 1.
[0119] In some embodiments, the prism holder 40 can be assembled and fixed with the prism 30 from above the prism 30 .
[0120] Fig.10 yes Figure 3 The camera module 100 shown is a partial cross-sectional schematic diagram of an implementation manner along line BB.
[0121] like Fig.10 As shown, the first light shielding sheet 50 can be fixed to the surface of the prism bracket 40 away from the prism 30. The material of the first light shielding sheet 50 can be polyethylene glycol terephthalate (PET). At this time, the first light shielding sheet 50 can be a black film, which has a low reflectivity and can absorb light. In this way, by setting the first light shielding sheet 50, it is possible to prevent the stray light reflected from the inside of the camera module 100 from entering the prism 30 and affecting the image quality.
[0122] In some embodiments, the material of the first light shielding sheet 50 may also be metal. In this case, the first light shielding sheet 50 may be a metal sheet. The surface of the first light shielding sheet 50 may be sprayed with light shielding ink. In other embodiments, the material of the first light shielding sheet 50 may also be polycarbonate (PC). The first light shielding sheet 50 may be doped with carbon black.
[0123] Exemplarily, the second light shielding sheet 60 may be fixed to the first surface 31 of the prism 30. The second light shielding sheet 60 may be provided with a light inlet hole 61 and a light outlet hole 62. It is understood that the portion of the first surface 31 that is disposed opposite to the light inlet hole 61 of the second light shielding sheet 60 forms the incident surface 30a. The portion of the first surface 31 that is disposed opposite to the light outlet hole 62 of the second light shielding sheet 60 forms the outlet surface 30b. In this way, when light enters the camera module 100, the light can pass through the light inlet hole 61 and enter the prism 30 from the incident surface 30a, and then be emitted from the outlet surface 30b and pass through the light outlet hole 62.
[0124] For example, the material of the second light shielding film 60 can be polyethylene glycol terephthalate (PET). In this case, the second light shielding film 60 can be a black film, which has a low reflectivity and can absorb light. In this way, by providing the second light shielding film 60, it is possible to prevent stray light reflected from the inside of the camera module 100 from entering the prism 30 and affecting the image quality.
[0125] In some embodiments, the material of the second light shielding sheet 60 may also be metal. In this case, the second light shielding sheet 60 may be a metal sheet. The surface of the second light shielding sheet 60 may be sprayed with light shielding ink. In other embodiments, the material of the second light shielding sheet 60 may also be polycarbonate (PC). The second light shielding sheet 60 may be doped with carbon black.
[0126] Fig.11 yes Figure 5 A partial structural schematic diagram of the camera assembly 1 is shown. Fig.12 yes Figure 3 The camera module 100 shown is a partial cross-sectional schematic diagram of an implementation manner along line BB.
[0127] like Fig.11 and Fig.12 As shown, the fixing member 74 may be a fixing support. The fixing member 74 may be fixed on the circuit board 72. The fixing member 74 may be provided with an avoidance hole 741.
[0128] In addition, the image sensor 71 may be fixed to the circuit board 72 and at least partially located in the avoidance hole 741. In addition, the image sensor 71 is also electrically connected to the circuit board 72.
[0129] like Fig.11 and Fig.12 As shown, the filter 73 can be fixed on the fixing member 74 and located in the avoidance hole 741. The filter 73 is located on the side of the image sensor 71 away from the circuit board 72. At this time, the circuit board 72, the image sensor 71 and the filter 73 can be arranged along the Z-axis direction. The image sensor 71 and the filter 73 can both be located at the bottom of the circuit board 72.
[0130] Exemplarily, the surface of the fixing member 74 away from the image sensor 71 can be fixedly connected to the second upper surface 423 of the prism bracket 40. At this time, the image sensor 71, the circuit board 72, the filter 73 and the fixing member 74 can constitute the sensor assembly 70 of the camera module 100. That is, the sensor assembly 70 can be fixed to the second upper surface 423 of the prism bracket 40.
[0131] like Fig.12As shown, the filter 73 is arranged opposite to the exit surface 30b of the prism 30. When the light is emitted from the exit surface 30b of the prism 30, the light can pass through the filter 73 and then be imaged on the image sensor 71. In this way, before the light enters the image sensor 71, it needs to pass through the filter 73, so that the invisible light can be filtered out by the filter 73 to improve the image quality. Among them, when the filter 73 is an infrared cut-off filter, the filter 73 can filter out the invisible light in the infrared band, thereby preventing the image sensor 71 from receiving infrared light and causing the problem of reddish color in the picture.
[0132] Exemplarily, the image sensor 71 may be parallel to the emission surface 30 b of the prism 30 .
[0133] Exemplarily, the sensor assembly 70 and the prism bracket 40 can be assembled by active alignment (AA) technology. The sensor assembly 70 can be grasped and assembled by a mobile robot arm of an assembly equipment machine. Among them, the mobile robot arm that grasps the sensor assembly 70 can be a mobile robot arm with a lit image sensor 71. After the mobile robot arm grasps the sensor assembly 70, the position of the sensor assembly 70 can be continuously adjusted by the assembly equipment machine, so as to find the clearest image in the picture output by the image sensor 71, and fix the position of the sensor assembly 70 at this time, and complete the assembly between the sensor assembly 70 and the prism bracket 40.
[0134] Fig.13a yes Figure 5 The motor 10 is shown in an exploded schematic diagram in one embodiment. Fig.13b yes Figure 3 The camera module 100 shown is a partial cross-sectional schematic diagram of an implementation manner along line BB.
[0135] like Fig.13a and Fig.13b As shown, the motor 10 may include a fixing seat 11, a driving assembly 12, and a carrier 13. Exemplarily, the fixing seat 11 may include a base 111 and a housing 112. The base 111 may be substantially in the shape of a cube. The base 111 may include a bottom 1111 and a frame 1112. The frame 1112 may be fixed to the bottom 1111 and enclose a receiving space 11a. The receiving space 11a may be used to receive the carrier 13 and at least part of the lens 20.
[0136] For example, the bottom 1111 may be provided with a first connecting hole 1111a. The first connecting hole 1111a may connect the outside of the motor 10 with the receiving space 11a. The frame 1112 may be provided with an avoidance hole 1112a. The avoidance hole 1112a may penetrate the inner circumference and the outer circumference of the frame 1112 and connect the receiving space 11a.
[0137] Exemplarily, the base 111 may further be provided with a first avoidance groove 113. The first avoidance groove 113 may penetrate the bottom 1111 and the frame 1112 and be connected to the first communication hole 1111a of the bottom 1111. At this time, the inner side surface of the bottom 1111 may face the first avoidance groove 113.
[0138] For example, the housing 112 may be substantially in the shape of a cube. The housing 112 may be fixed to the bottom 1111 of the base 111. At this time, the space enclosed by the housing 112 and the base 111 may constitute the installation space 10a of the entire motor 10. The installation space 10a may be located in the middle of the motor 10.
[0139] Exemplarily, the housing 112 can be arranged around the frame portion 1112 of the base 111. At this time, the space enclosed by the housing 112 and the base 111 (that is, the space enclosed by the inner side of the fixing seat 11) can constitute the installation space 10a of the entire motor 10. Exemplarily, there can be a gap 114 between the housing 112 and the frame portion 1112. The housing 112 can also be provided with a second connecting hole 1121. The second connecting hole 1121 can connect the outside of the motor 10 with the receiving space 11a, and is arranged opposite to the first connecting hole 1111a. It should be understood that in this embodiment, the receiving space 11a, the first connecting hole 1111a, the second connecting hole 1121 and the gap 114 can all constitute at least part of the installation space 10a of the motor 10.
[0140] Fig.14 yes Fig.13a An exploded schematic diagram of the drive assembly 12 of the motor 10 is shown.
[0141] like Figures 13a to 14As shown, the driving component 12 may include a driving circuit board 121, a coil 122, a driving chip 123, a magnetic part 124, a magnetic sheet 125 and a position sensor 126. Exemplarily, the coil 122 may be fixed on the driving circuit board 121 and electrically connected to the driving circuit board 121. Among them, the coil 122 may include a focus coil 1221 and an anti-shake coil 1222. The magnetic sheet 125 may be fixed on the side of the driving circuit board 121 away from the coil 122. The position sensor 126 may be fixed on the driving circuit board 121 and electrically connected to the driving circuit board 121. Exemplarily, the position sensor 126 may be located in the coil hole of the coil 122. The driving chip 123 may be fixed on the driving circuit board 121 and electrically connected to the driving circuit board 121. At this time, the driving chip 123 may be electrically connected to the coil 122 and the position sensor 126 at the same time through the driving circuit board 121. The driving chip 123 may be used to input a signal to the coil 122 and obtain information from the position sensor 126. Exemplarily, the driving chip 123 and the coil 122 may be located on the same side of the driving circuit board 121 .
[0142] like Fig.13b and Fig.14 As shown, the driving circuit board 121 and the magnetic sheet 125 can be at least partially located in the gap 114 between the housing 112 and the frame 1112. The driving circuit board 121 can be arranged around the frame 1112 and fixedly connected to the outer peripheral side of the frame 1112. At this time, the coil 122, the driving chip 123 and the position sensor 126 can all be located in the avoidance hole 1112a of the frame 1112. In other words, the driving circuit board 121, the coil 122, the driving chip 123, the magnetic part 124, the magnetic sheet 125 and the position sensor 126 can all be installed in the installation space 10a of the motor 10.
[0143] like Fig.13a and Fig.13b As shown, the carrier 13 can be installed in the receiving space 11a of the base 111. Exemplarily, the carrier 13 may include a focusing bracket 131 and an anti-shake bracket 132. Among them, the focusing bracket 131 can be movably connected to the base 111. Exemplarily, the focusing bracket 131 can be slidably connected to the base 111 through a sliding shaft. The anti-shake bracket 132 may include a first bracket 1321 and a second bracket 1322. The first bracket 1321 can be movably connected to the focusing bracket 131. The second bracket 1322 can be movably connected to the first bracket 1321. Exemplarily, the first bracket 1321 can be slidably connected to the focusing bracket 131 through a ball bearing. The second bracket 1322 can be slidably connected to the first bracket 1321 through a ball bearing.
[0144] Exemplarily, the focus bracket 131 can move along the Z-axis direction relative to the base 111. The first bracket 1321 can move along the X-axis direction relative to the focus bracket 131. The second bracket 1322 can move along the Y-axis direction relative to the first bracket 1321.
[0145] Exemplarily, the carrier 13 may be provided with a third connecting hole 133. The third connecting hole 133 may sequentially penetrate the second bracket 1322, the first bracket 1321 and the focusing bracket 131. The lens 20 may be mounted on the third connecting hole 133 and fixedly connected to the second bracket 1322, that is, the lens 20 may be located on the inner side of the carrier 13. When light is incident on the motor 10, the light may sequentially pass through the first connecting hole 1111a and the lens 20, and finally be emitted from the motor 10 through the second connecting hole 1121. It should be noted that the specific installation method between the lens 20 and the carrier 13 will be described below in conjunction with the relevant drawings and will not be repeated here.
[0146] Exemplarily, a focus mounting groove 1311 may be formed on the surface of the focus bracket 131 facing the focus coil 1221. An anti-shake mounting groove 1323 may be formed on the surface of the anti-shake bracket 132 facing the anti-shake coil 1222. The magnetic component 124 of the drive assembly 12 may include a focus magnetic component 1241 and an anti-shake magnetic component 1242. Among them, the focus magnetic component 1241 may be installed in the focus mounting groove 1311. The anti-shake magnetic component 1242 may be installed in the anti-shake mounting groove 1323. At this time, the focus magnetic component 1241 may be located between the focus coil 1221 and the carrier. The anti-shake magnetic component 1242 may be located between the anti-shake coil 1222 and the carrier.
[0147] It is understandable that when a signal is applied to the focus coil 1221, the focus coil 1221 can cooperate with the focus magnetic member 1241, so as to drive the focus bracket 131 and drive the anti-shake bracket 132 to move along the Z-axis direction relative to the base 111. In other words, the lens 20 can move along the Z-axis direction relative to the base 111 under the drive of the carrier 13 to realize the auto focus (AF) function.
[0148] When a signal is applied to the anti-shake coil 1222, the anti-shake coil 1222 can cooperate with the anti-shake magnetic member 1242, so as to drive the first bracket 1321 and drive the second bracket 1322 to move along the X-axis direction relative to the focus bracket 131, and / or drive the second bracket 1322 to move along the Y-axis direction relative to the first bracket 1321. In other words, the lens 20 can move on the XY plane relative to the base 111 under the drive of the carrier 13, so as to realize the optical image stabilization (OIS) function.
[0149] In other words, the motor 10 in this embodiment can be an integrated motor with both autofocus function and optical image stabilization function. Among them, the integrated motor can be designed as an upright motor. In this way, the motor 10 can drive the lens 20 to move in the optical axis direction of the lens 20 (that is, the Z-axis direction in this embodiment) to achieve autofocus. The motor 10 can also drive the lens 20 to move in the vertical direction of the optical axis direction of the lens 20 (that is, the X-axis and Y-axis directions in this embodiment) to achieve optical image stabilization.
[0150] Please refer again Fig.13a and Fig.13b , the focus bracket 131 may be provided with a second avoidance groove 1312. The second avoidance groove 1312 may be connected to the bottom space of the anti-shake bracket 132 and the third connecting hole 133. When the carrier 13 is installed in the receiving space 11a of the base 111, the second avoidance groove 1312 may be connected to the first avoidance groove 113 of the bottom 1111. At this time, the first avoidance groove 113, the second avoidance groove 1312 and the bottom space of the anti-shake bracket 132 may together constitute at least part of the avoidance space 14 of the motor 10. The avoidance space 14 may be connected to the installation space 10a. For ease of understanding, Fig.13b The dotted line schematically shows the avoidance space 14. The volume of the area enclosed by the dotted line is slightly larger than the avoidance space 14. In this embodiment, the setting of the avoidance space 14 does not affect the function realization of the motor 10.
[0151] In some implementations, the focus bracket 131 may not be provided with the second avoidance groove 1312 .
[0152] In other embodiments, the avoidance space 14 may also be formed in other ways on the fixing base 11 or formed between the fixing base 11 and the carrier 13. The present application does not limit the formation method of the avoidance space 14.
[0153] Fig.15 yes Figure 3 The camera module 100 shown is a partial cross-sectional schematic diagram of another viewing angle in one embodiment along line BB.
[0154] like Fig.15 As shown, a first glue overflow groove 15 may be formed between the lens 20 and the inner side of the second bracket 1322. Glue may be applied in the first glue overflow groove 15 to form a glue layer. The lens 20 may be fixedly connected to the carrier 13 through the glue layer.
[0155] Exemplarily, the first glue overflow groove 15 may include a first portion 151, a second portion 152, and a third portion 153 that are connected in sequence. The first portion 151, the second portion 152, and the third portion 153 may be arranged in the optical axis direction of the lens 20. The width of the first portion 151 may be greater than the width of the second portion 152 and the third portion 153. The width of the second portion 152 may be greater than the width of the third portion 153. Among them, the widths of the first portion 151, the second portion 152, and the third portion 153 all refer to the widths in the X-axis direction.
[0156] Exemplarily, the width of the first portion 151 may be greater than or equal to 0.5 mm. At this time, the distance between the wall of the carrier 13 and the lens 20 is sufficient to prevent glue from overflowing. In some embodiments, the carrier 13 may have a glue flow slope 134 facing the second portion 152. The glue flow slope 134 may form an angle less than or equal to 60° with the optical axis direction of the lens 20. In other embodiments, the width of the third portion 153 may be in the range of 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm.
[0157] It is understandable that when the width of the third portion 153 of the first glue overflow groove 15 is within the range of 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm, the width of the third portion 153 can be prevented from being too large, thereby preventing the lens 20 from shifting during the assembly process. It should be noted that the above-mentioned configuration schemes of the first glue overflow groove 15 can be combined with each other, and this application does not limit this.
[0158] In some embodiments, when the lens 20 and the motor 10 are assembled, the lens 20 can be assembled with the carrier 13 of the motor 10 from above the motor 10, and then the lens 20 and the motor 10 are turned over, and glue is injected into the first overflow glue groove 15 to form a glue layer, so that the lens 20 can be fixed to the carrier 13 of the motor 10 through the glue layer. The assembly between the lens 20 and the motor 10 can also use active lens focusing technology.
[0159] Fig.16 yes Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a partial installation process of a camera assembly 1 in one embodiment is shown. Fig.17 yes Figure 3 The camera module 100 is shown as a partial cross-sectional schematic diagram along line BB.
[0160] like Fig.16 and Fig.17As shown, the motor 10 can be fixed to the first upper surface 421 of the prism bracket 40 together with the lens 20. At this time, the prism 30 can be located at the bottom side of the motor 10. Part of the prism 30 can be located in the avoidance space 14. The incident surface 30a of the prism 30 can face the lens 20. The exit surface 30b of the prism 30 can be exposed relative to the motor 10, that is, the exit surface 30b of the prism 30 is not blocked by the motor 10.
[0161] Exemplarily, the motor 10 and the prism bracket 40 can be assembled by active lens focusing technology. After visually identifying the characteristic points of the motor 10 and the prism bracket 40, the mobile robot arm of the assembly equipment can grab the motor 10 and the lens 20, and move them to the corresponding position of the prism bracket 40 for fixing, thereby completing the assembly between the motor 10 and the prism bracket 40. It can be understood that in this embodiment, the sensor assembly 70 and the prism 30 are installed first, and then the motor 10 and the lens 20 are installed with the prism 30. This installation method is relatively simple and has high accuracy.
[0162] Fig.18 yes Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a partial installation process of another embodiment of the camera assembly 1 is shown.
[0163] like Fig.18 As shown, in other embodiments, the motor 10 and the lens 20 may be installed with the prism 30 first, and then the sensor assembly 70 may be installed with the prism 30 .
[0164] Fig.19 yes Figure 3 The camera module 100 shown is a partial cross-sectional schematic diagram of an implementation manner along line BB.
[0165] like Fig.19 As shown, the lens 20 and the sensor assembly 70 can be located on the same side of the prism 30. The bottom surface of the housing 2 can constitute the bottom surface of the entire camera module 100. At this time, in the Z-axis direction, the distance from the top surface of the sensor assembly 70 to the bottom surface of the camera module 100 is the module tail height. The distance from the top surface of the motor 10 to the bottom surface of the camera module 100 is the module shoulder height. The distance from the top surface of the lens 20 to the bottom surface of the camera module 100 is the total height of the module. The length of the housing 2 in the X-axis direction is the total length of the module.
[0166] It is understandable that the camera module 100 in this embodiment changes the optical path by setting the prism 30, so that the lens 20 and the prism 30 are arranged at the module height, and the image sensor 71 and the prism 30 are also arranged at the module height, thereby effectively reducing the module length. The lens 20 and the image sensor 71 are arranged on the same side of the prism 30, which effectively reduces the module height. At the same time, this embodiment also sets an avoidance space 14 in the motor 10, and partially locates the prism 30 in the avoidance space 14, so that the motor 10 can sink relative to the prism 30, and the arrangement of the prism 30, the motor 10 and the image sensor 71 is more compact, so that the module height can be further reduced, so that the overall module size of the camera module 100 is smaller, which is conducive to realizing the miniaturization of the camera module 100.
[0167] In addition, the lens 20 and the image sensor 71 are arranged on the same side of the prism 30, so that the optical axis of the lens 20 is in a normal relationship with the first surface 31 of the prism 30. At the same time, the phase plane of the image sensor 71 is in a normal relationship with the optical axis of the lens 20 and is parallel to the first surface 31 of the prism 30. When light passes through the lens 20 and enters the prism 30, the light will be reflected multiple times inside the prism 30, and then emitted from the exit surface 30b and imaged on the image sensor 71. In this way, before the light is imaged on the image sensor 71, it can be reflected multiple times inside the prism 30, so that the light path can be folded, effectively increasing the focal length and total track length (TTL) of the camera module 100. In other words, the camera module 100 in this embodiment can increase the total length of the optical system by setting the prism 30 to reflect the light multiple times without increasing the physical length of the module, so that the camera module 100 can achieve a small setting while obtaining a larger focal length.
[0168] In addition, when the motor 10 drives the lens 20 to move to realize the anti-shake function, its movement mode is translation, so as to avoid the rotation of the reflector in the periscope optical system, which causes the image to rotate in the field of view and improves the image quality. At the same time, the motor 10 in this embodiment is an integrated motor 10, and the structure of the motor 10 is simpler, which is conducive to reducing the manufacturing cost of the entire camera module 100.
[0169] In some embodiments, Fig.19As shown, when the diagonal length of the target surface of the image sensor 71 is 0.5 inches, the total length of the optical system of the camera module 100 can be in the range of 15 mm to 30 mm. The camera module 100 can achieve 2x to 5x zoom, and its effective focal length can be in the range of 10 mm to 20 mm. At this time, the motor height of the camera module 100 can be in the range of 2 mm to 5 mm. The prism height can be in the range of 2.5 mm to 5 mm. The module length can be in the range of 15 mm to 30 mm. The module tail height can be in the range of 3 mm to 7 mm. The module shoulder height can be in the range of 5 mm to 10 mm. The total module height can be in the range of 6 mm to 15 mm.
[0170] In some embodiments, the sensor assembly 70 may also include an anti-shake assembly. The anti-shake assembly can realize the optical image stabilization function of the image sensor 71 by controlling the image sensor 71 to move in the direction perpendicular to the optical axis direction of the lens 20. At this time, the camera module 100 can be a dual anti-shake camera with both lens 20 anti-shake and image sensor 71 anti-shake, which is beneficial to improve the image quality of the camera module 100. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the motor 10 can also only control the lens 20 to move along the optical axis to realize the autofocus function. At this time, the camera module 100 can realize the optical image stabilization function of the image sensor 71 only through the anti-shake assembly in the sensor assembly 70, thereby realizing the optical image stabilization function of the entire camera module 100.
[0171] In other embodiments, the camera module 100 can also realize the auto focus function by controlling the prism 30 to move along the optical axis direction, and realize the optical image stabilization function by controlling the image sensor 71 to move in the direction perpendicular to the optical axis direction of the lens 20. Alternatively, the camera module 100 can also realize the auto focus function and the optical image stabilization function by controlling the prism 30 to move along the optical axis direction and in the direction perpendicular to the optical axis direction of the lens 20, and realize the optical image stabilization function by controlling the image sensor 71 to move in the direction perpendicular to the optical axis direction of the lens 20.
[0172] The structure of the camera module 100 is described in detail above, and the structure of the prism 30 will be described in detail below in conjunction with the relevant drawings.
[0173] Fig. 20 yes Figure 8 The structure of the prism 30 shown is schematically shown in another viewing angle. Fig.21 yes Figure 8 The structure of the prism 30 shown is a schematic diagram at another viewing angle.
[0174] like Fig. 20 and Fig.21As shown, the prism 30 may also include at least two reflecting surfaces. In this case, the reflecting surface and the transmitting surface (that is, the incident surface 30a and the exit surface 30b) may together constitute the prism working surface of the prism 30. Exemplarily, the number of reflecting surfaces may be three, namely, the first reflecting surface 371, the second reflecting surface 372 and the third reflecting surface 373. Among them, the first reflecting surface 371 may be located on the third side surface 35. The second reflecting surface 372 may be located on the first surface 31. The third reflecting surface 373 may be located on the fourth side surface 36. In this case, in the Z-axis direction, the first reflecting surface 371 and the third reflecting surface 373 may both be located on the bottom side of the incident surface 30a. The second reflecting surface 372 and the incident surface 30a are located on the same side of the prism 30. An angle may be formed between the first reflecting surface 371 and the exit surface 30b (that is, an angle is formed between the first surface 31 and the third side surface 35). The third reflecting surface 373 may form an angle with the exit surface 30b (that is, an angle is formed between the first surface 31 and the fourth side surface 36). The second reflecting surface 372 may be located between the incident surface 30a and the exit surface 30b. In other embodiments, the specific number and position of the reflecting surfaces may be changed according to the specific shape of the prism 30.
[0175] Exemplarily, the second reflective surface 372 may overlap with the incident surface 30a. In other embodiments, the second reflective surface 372 may overlap with the exit surface 30b. Alternatively, the second reflective surface 372 may overlap with both the incident surface 30a and the exit surface 30b.
[0176] Exemplarily, the camera assembly 1 may further include an anti-reflection film (not shown) and a reflective film (not shown). The anti-reflection film may be provided on the incident surface 30a and the exit surface 30b of the prism 30, respectively, to increase the light transmission performance of the incident surface 30a and the exit surface 30b. The reflective film may be provided on the reflective surface of the prism 30 (i.e., the first reflective surface 371, the second reflective surface 372, and the third reflective surface 373 in this embodiment) to increase the reflective performance of the reflective surface.
[0177] Exemplarily, the surface of the prism 30 other than the incident surface 30a, the exit surface 30b and the reflective surface (in this embodiment, the first side surface 33, the second side surface 34, the third side surface 35 other than the first reflective surface 371, the fourth side surface 36 other than the second reflective surface 372, the first surface 31 other than the second reflective surface 372, and the second surface 32) can constitute the non-imaging surface of the prism 30. Among them, the non-imaging surface of the prism 30 can be provided with a light shielding layer to prevent stray light from entering the interior of the prism 30. In other embodiments, light shielding ink can be applied to the non-imaging surface of the prism 30 to prevent stray light from entering the interior of the prism 30.
[0178] Fig. 22 yes Fig. 20The prism 30 shown is a schematic cross-sectional view of an embodiment along line CC. Fig.23 yes Fig. 20 The prism 30 shown is a schematic cross-sectional view of an embodiment along line DD.
[0179] like Fig. 22 and Fig.23 As shown, the prism 30 may further include a light blocking layer 38. The light blocking layer 38 may be located between the third side surface 35 and the fourth side surface 36, that is, between the first reflecting surface 371 and the third reflecting surface 373 (see Fig.21 ). The light blocking layer 38 may be connected to the second surface 32. The middle and upper part of the light blocking layer 38 may form a light passing area 381 for light to pass through. At this time, at least part of the light blocking layer 38 may be spaced apart from the first surface 31.
[0180] Exemplarily, the prism 30 may also be provided with a groove 39. The groove 39 may be located between the third side surface 35 and the fourth side surface 36, that is, between the first reflecting surface 371 and the third reflecting surface 373 (see Fig.21 The opening of the groove 39 may be formed on the first side surface 33, the second side surface 34 and the second surface 32 ( Fig.21 The groove 39 is also shown from another angle. At this time, the groove 39 is recessed into the interior of the prism 30. Then, the groove wall of the groove 39 is subjected to light shielding treatment to form a light blocking layer 38. In this way, by providing the light blocking layer 38 inside the prism 30 to block light, stray light outside the light passing area 381 can be prevented from passing through and affecting the image quality.
[0181] In some implementations, the groove 39 may be formed by cutting and grooving a local area of the prism 30. In this case, the prism 30 may be a cut-edge prism.
[0182] Fig.24 yes Figure 8 The illustrated schematic diagram is an assembly diagram of the prism 30 in other embodiments.
[0183] like Fig.24 As shown, the prism 30 may also be a glued prism. In this case, the prism 30 may include a first sub-section 301 and a second sub-section 302 separated from each other. The first sub-section 301 may be fixed to the second sub-section 302 by gluing. In this way, by coating ink or providing a light shielding layer on the gluing surface of the first sub-section 301 and / or the second sub-section 302, a light shielding layer 38 may be formed.
[0184] Fig.25 yes Figure 3 The camera module 100 is shown as a partial cross-sectional schematic diagram along line BB.
[0185] like Fig.25As shown, the light can enter the prism 30 from the incident surface 30a through the lens 20, and then be reflected by the first reflection surface 371, the second reflection surface 372 and the third reflection surface 373 in sequence, and then be emitted from the prism 30 from the exit surface 30b, and finally be imaged on the image sensor 71. Among them, the light can be reflected three or more times in an odd number inside the prism 30. For example, the light can also be reflected five or more times inside the prism 30.
[0186] Fig.26 yes Fig.25 The schematic diagram of the structure of the prism 30 and the image sensor 71 is shown. Fig. 27 yes Fig.26 A schematic diagram of the structure shown in another perspective.
[0187] like Fig.26 and Fig. 27 As shown, the first side surface 33 of the prism 30 may form an angle with the second side surface 34. The angle between the first side surface 33 and / or the second side surface 34 and the first surface 31 may be greater than or less than 90°. At this time, the prism 30 may be a trapezoidal shaped prism 30. In this embodiment, the angle between the first side surface 33 and the first surface 31 may be greater than 90°. The angle between the second side surface 34 and the first surface 31 may be greater than 90°. At this time, the spacing between the first side surface 33 and the second side surface 34 may increase in a direction away from the first surface 31. The width of the second surface 32 (i.e., the length in the Y-axis direction in this embodiment) is greater than the width of the first surface 31.
[0188] When the incident field angle of the stray light is small, and the stray light is grazingly incident on the fourth side surface 36 of the prism 30, the reflectivity of the stray light is relatively large. At this time, the stray light can be incident from the incident surface 30a of the prism 30, and after being reflected by the third side surface 35, the second reflective surface 372, the fourth side surface 36, the first side surface 33, the first surface 31 and the fourth side surface 36 in sequence, it is absorbed by the second side surface 34. Alternatively, the stray light can be incident from the incident surface 30a of the prism 30, and after being reflected by the third side surface 35, the second reflective surface 372, the fourth side surface 36, the second side surface 34, the first surface 31 and the fourth side surface 36 in sequence, it is absorbed by the first side surface 33. Among them, the stray light is reflected six times inside the prism 30. It should be understood that Fig.26 and Fig. 27 The light path of stray light when it is absorbed by the second side surface 34 is shown.
[0189] When the incident field angle of the stray light is large, and the incident angle with the third side surface 35 of the prism 30 is large, the reflectivity of the stray light is large. At this time, the incident angle of the stray light on the exit surface 30b of the prism 30 increases, and the stray light can be totally reflected inside the prism 30, so that the stray light can be finally absorbed by the first side surface 33 or the second side surface 34.
[0190] It is understandable that the prism 30 in this embodiment has multiple reflective surfaces. After the light enters the prism 30 from the incident surface 30a of the prism 30, the light can be reflected between the multiple reflective surfaces until it is emitted from the exit surface 30b and imaged on the image sensor 71. Among them, the light can be reflected three or more times in an odd number inside the prism 30, so that the light path can be folded, effectively increasing the focal length of the camera module 100 and the total length of the optical system. In other words, this embodiment can increase the total length of the optical system by setting a prism 30 without increasing the physical length of the module, and setting multiple reflective surfaces inside the prism 30 to reflect the light multiple times, so that the camera module 100 can achieve a miniaturized setting while obtaining a larger focal length.
[0191] In addition, the present embodiment also performs anti-reflection treatment on the non-imaging area of the prism 30 by providing a shading layer or coating shading ink (for example, a shading layer is provided on the first side 33 and the second side 34 of the prism 30), thereby effectively preventing stray light inside the camera module 100 from entering the interior of the prism 30 and affecting the image quality.
[0192] In addition, even if stray light enters the interior of the prism 30, the stray light can be reflected multiple times inside the prism 30, and the stray light can be gradually attenuated by using the ineffective blackening process, so that the stray light can be absorbed by the non-imaging area of the prism 30. At the same time, this embodiment also increases the distance between the first side surface 33 and the second side surface 34 in the direction away from the incident surface 30a, so that the stray light entering the interior of the prism 30 can increase the number of reflections inside the prism 30, or the stray light is totally reflected inside the prism 30, so that the stray light can be finally absorbed by the first side surface 33 or the second side surface 34, thereby preventing the stray light from being imaged on the image sensor 71 and eliminating the influence of the stray light on the image quality.
[0193] Fig.28 yes Fig. 20 The illustrated schematic diagram is a structural diagram of a prism 30 in another embodiment. Fig.29 yes Fig.28 The structure of the prism 30 shown is schematically shown in another viewing angle. Fig.30 yes Fig.28 The prism 30 shown is a schematic cross-sectional view of an embodiment along line EE.
[0194] like Figures 28 to 30 As shown, the prism 30 in this embodiment is Fig. 20The structures of the prism 30 shown are substantially the same, and the same parts are not repeated. The difference is that the first side surface 33 and the second side surface 34 of the prism 30 in this embodiment can be parallel to each other. In this case, the prism 30 can be a regular elongated prism 30. The first side surface 33 can be perpendicular to the first surface 31. The second side surface 34 can be perpendicular to the first surface 31.
[0195] The structure of the prism 30 is described in detail above, and the specific arrangement of the filter 73 will be described in detail below in conjunction with the relevant drawings.
[0196] Fig.31 yes Fig.12 The structure shown is a schematic cross-sectional view in another embodiment.
[0197] like Fig.31 As shown, the structure of the camera module 100 in this embodiment is similar to Fig.12 The structure of the camera module 100 shown is substantially the same, and the similarities are not repeated. The difference is that the fixing member 74 can also be located between the filter 73 and the prism 30. The filter 73 can be fixedly connected to the prism 30 through the fixing member 74. The filter 73 can be arranged opposite to the exit surface 30b of the prism 30.
[0198] Exemplarily, the fixing member 74 may be a glue layer. The fixing member 74 may be fixed around the exit surface 30b by dispensing glue.
[0199] Fig.32 yes Fig.12 The structure shown is a schematic cross-sectional view in yet another embodiment.
[0200] like Fig.32 As shown, the structure of the camera module 100 in this embodiment is similar to Fig.12 The structure of the camera module 100 shown is substantially the same, and the similarities are not repeated. The difference is that the fixing member 74 and the filter 73 can be located between the lens 20 and the prism 30. Among them, the fixing member 74 can be located between the filter 73 and the prism 30. The filter 73 can be fixedly connected to the prism 30 through the fixing member 74. The filter 73 can be arranged opposite to the incident surface 30a of the prism 30.
[0201] For example, the fixing member 74 may be a glue layer, and the fixing member 74 may be fixed around the incident surface 30a by dispensing glue.
[0202] Fig.33 yes Fig.12 The structure shown is a schematic cross-sectional view in yet another embodiment.
[0203] like Fig.33 As shown, the structure of the camera module 100 in this embodiment is similar to Fig.12 The structure of the camera module 100 shown is substantially the same, and the similarities are not repeated. The difference is that the filter 73 in this embodiment can be directly fixed on the first surface 31 of the prism 30. The filter 73 can cover the incident surface 30a and / or the exit surface 30b. Among them, the filter 73 can be an infrared cut-off film.
[0204] It is understandable that in this embodiment, an infrared cut-off film is provided on the first surface 31 of the prism 30 to form the filter 73. In this way, by directly providing the filter 73 on the surface of the prism 30, there is no need to provide an additional fixing member 74, which is conducive to saving the internal space of the camera module 100.
[0205] Fig.34 yes Fig.12 The structure shown is a schematic cross-sectional view in other embodiments.
[0206] like Fig.34 As shown, the structure of the camera module 100 in this embodiment is similar to Fig.12 The structures of the camera module 100 shown are substantially the same, and the similarities are not repeated.
