Description

Technical Field

Background Technology

[0002] Mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets are equipped with cameras, and some cameras employ a dual-coil low-leakage design for both X-axis and Y-axis image stabilization. Related technologies generally use optical image stabilization (OIS) or digital image stabilization (DSS) to prevent the camera's rotor from tilting relative to the stator. OIS uses the movement of built-in lenses or sensing elements to counteract external vibrations and maintain image stability. In some OIS technologies, the sensing elements are positioned horizontally within the coil. However, horizontal placement of the sensing elements can cause deviations or instability in the autofocus system when attempting to maintain focus. This results in the focus failing to accurately track changes in the subject's position within the frame, thus affecting image sharpness. Summary of the Invention

[0048] like Figures 9-13As shown, the optical image stabilization mechanism 60 of the camera assembly 100 of this application enables the single-layer ball bearing optical vibration damping motor to suppress the rolling or tumbling of the lens 50 and the carrier of the lens 50 on the plane enclosed by the X-axis and Y-axis, and can obtain a lower level of autofocus drift and electromagnetic interference of the coil magnet. Specifically, both the first anti-vibration mechanism 62 and the second anti-vibration mechanism 64 adopt a dual rectangular coil low-leakage magnetic design. The length direction of the first electromagnetic sensor 621 is parallel to the Z-axis and located between the two first rectangular coils 6250. The length direction of the third electromagnetic sensor 641 is parallel to the Z-axis and located between the two second rectangular coils 6450. The length direction of the second electromagnetic sensor 623 is parallel to the Y-axis and placed inside the cavity of one of the first rectangular coils 6250, or the length direction of the second electromagnetic sensor 623 is parallel to the X-axis and placed inside the cavity of one of the second rectangular coils 6450.

An algorithm is used to suppress the rotation of the lens relative to the base 70. Figure 9 As shown, the first magnet group 620. Understandably, to prevent the lens 50 from rotating relative to the base 70, the first electromagnetic sensor 621 of the first anti-vibration mechanism 62 senses changes in magnetic field strength to detect displacement in the Y-axis direction; the second electromagnetic sensor 623 senses changes in magnetic field strength to detect displacement in the X-axis direction; and the third electromagnetic sensor 641 senses changes in magnetic field strength to detect displacement in the X-axis direction, which corresponds to detecting changes in the distance between the mover 40 and the surfaces of the first electromagnetic sensors 621, 623, and 641. When the lens 50 rotates, the distances sensed by the first electromagnetic sensors 621, 623, and 641 have differential derivatives. At this time, through algorithmic control, the distances sensed by the first electromagnetic sensors 621 and 623 are made consistent relative to the first and second electromagnetic sensors 621 and 623 respectively through closed-loop control, thereby correcting the rotation of the lens 50. Therefore, the electromagnetic sensor of the camera assembly 100 of this application uses an algorithm to suppress the rotation of the lens 50 and its carrier, and can achieve a lower level of autofocus drift and electromagnetic interference from the coil magnet.
