[0030] In the embodiment of the present application, the light collected by the first lens assembly 11 can be transmitted to the second lens assembly 12 through the reflector 13, and then converted to the photosensitive chip 6 through the first optical path conversion element 21 and the second optical path conversion element 22 in sequence. The first optical path conversion element 21 and the second optical path conversion element 22 can change the propagation direction of the light, thereby increasing the optical path from the rear end of the second lens assembly 12 to the photosensitive chip 6, so that the shooting module can achieve super telephoto shooting. Moreover, the second optical path conversion element 22 and the side of the first optical path conversion element 21 away from the second lens assembly 12 can be enclosed to form an avoidance space 5, and the avoidance space 5 can be used to arrange the circuit board 200 of the electronic device to solve the problem of stacking the circuit board 200, which is conducive to the miniaturization design of the electronic device.
[0031] The camera module 100 in the embodiment of the present application is used for shooting tasks. The camera module 100 may include a housing and a first optical component 1 and a second optical component 2 disposed in the housing. The housing is used to protect the first optical component 1 and the second optical component 2. The first optical component 1 may be composed of a first lens component 11, a reflector 13, and a second lens component 12. The first lens component 11 may be a fixed component. The first lens component 11 may be fixed relative to the housing. The first lens component 11 plays a role in collecting and converging light, and can reduce the size of the optical path conversion element. Among them, the first lens component 11 may include at least one lens. The specific number of lenses can be designed according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit this.
[0032] Specifically, at least part of the second lens assembly 12 can move relative to the housing, and can realize the zoom or focus function of the camera module 100. The second lens assembly 12 can include at least one lens, and the specific number of lenses can be designed according to actual needs, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application.
[0033] Furthermore, all the lenses in the second lens assembly 12 may be integrated into one lens unit, or the second lens assembly 12 may be divided into a plurality of lens units, each of which may be composed of at least one lens.
[0034] Specifically, the reflector 13 can transmit the light collected by the first lens assembly to the second lens assembly, and the reflector 13 is used to change the transmission direction of the light. The reflector 13 can be a reflector or a prism with a reflective function, etc., which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application.
[0035] Optionally, the camera module 100 may further include a focus motor 7 , which may be connected to the second lens assembly 12 , and the focus motor 7 is used to drive the second lens assembly 12 to move.
[0036] In the embodiment of the present application, the focus motor 7 drives the second lens assembly 12 to move, which can realize the focus function of the camera module 100. In this case, the first optical assembly 1 and the focus motor 7 can be combined to form an inner focus optical system, which can realize ultra-macro focus in a short stroke.
[0037] Specifically, the moving stroke of the lens focus = (object distance * effective focal length / (object distance - effective focal length) - effective focal length), where the effective focal length (Effective Focal Length, EFL) refers to the distance from the center of the lens to the focus. The longer the effective focal length, the smaller the lens stroke at the same object distance. In the embodiment of the present application, the first optical component 1 is composed of a first lens component, a reflector 13 and a second lens component, and the reflector 13 can transmit the light collected by the first lens component to the second lens component. The first optical component 1 can be focused through the movement of the second lens component 12, which can increase the effective focal length and greatly shorten the moving stroke required for focusing. The second lens component 12 can achieve a macro focusing function by moving a smaller stroke. Moreover, the second lens component 12 is light in weight, which makes the power consumption during the focusing process low.
[0038] Specifically, the first direction and the second direction intersect, the second direction may be a Z-axis direction, that is, a thickness direction of the electronic device, and the first direction may be an X-axis direction, that is, a width direction of the electronic device.
[0039] Optionally, the focus motor 7 may also be connected to the reflector 13 to realize the focus anti-shake function of the camera module 100 by driving the reflector 13 to move.
[0040] In other embodiments, since the light passes through the second lens assembly 12 and then passes through the first optical path conversion element 21 and the second optical path conversion element 22 in sequence to be converted to the photosensitive chip 6, the focus motor 7 can also be connected to the first optical path conversion element 21 to drive the first optical path conversion element 21 to move, thereby realizing the focus function of the camera module 100, compensating for the jitter generated during shooting, assuming the role of optical image stabilization, and improving image quality.
[0041] Alternatively, the focus motor 7 can also be connected to the second optical path conversion element 22 to realize the focus function of the camera module 100 by driving the second optical path conversion element 22 to move, and can compensate for the jitter generated during shooting, assume the role of optical image stabilization, and improve image quality.
[0042] Alternatively, the focus motor 7 can also be connected to the photosensitive chip 6 to realize the focus function of the camera module 100 by driving the photosensitive chip 6 to move, and can compensate for the jitter generated during shooting, thereby assuming the role of optical image stabilization.
[0043] Optionally, the camera module 100 may further include a zoom motor, which may be connected to the second lens assembly 12 to drive the second lens assembly 12 to move, thereby realizing a zoom function and improving image quality. Furthermore, when the second lens assembly 12 includes a plurality of lens units, the positions of the plurality of lens units may be adjusted to realize a continuous zoom function.
[0044] Specifically, the first optical path conversion element 21 and the second optical path conversion element 22 are both used to adjust the transmission direction of the light. The first optical path conversion element 21 is disposed on a side of the second lens assembly 12 away from the first lens assembly 11 in the first direction, and at least a portion of the second optical path conversion element 22 is arranged along the second direction with the first optical path conversion element 21, so that the first optical path conversion element 21 can convert the light passing through the second lens assembly 12 to the second optical path conversion element 22.
[0045] Specifically, Figure 1As shown, the second optical path conversion element 22 is arranged above the first optical path conversion element 21, and a part of the second optical path conversion element 22 is opposite to the first optical path conversion element 21, so that another part of the second optical path conversion element 22 and a side of the first optical path conversion element 21 away from the second lens assembly enclose a avoidance space 5, and the avoidance space 5 can be left for the layout of the circuit board 200 of the electronic device, which can solve the pain point that the camera module 100 and the circuit board 200 cannot be stacked and the telephoto function cannot be solved at the same time in the current electronic device, and it is convenient to ensure the layout size of the circuit board 200, thereby ensuring the battery capacity and improving the endurance of the electronic device.
[0046] Furthermore, the photosensitive chip 6 is connected to the light-emitting side of the second optical path conversion element 22, so that the light collected by the first lens assembly 11 can be received by the photosensitive chip 6 after passing through the second lens assembly 12, the first optical path conversion element 21 and the second optical path conversion element 22 in sequence, thereby realizing imaging. Specifically, the light-emitting side of the second optical path conversion element 22 can be a side close to the avoidance space 5, or a side away from the avoidance space 5, etc., which can be set according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit this.
[0047] Optionally, the photosensitive chip 6 is connected to the side of the second optical path conversion element 22 facing the avoidance space 5, so that the photosensitive chip 6 can be arranged close to the circuit board 200, thereby facilitating electrical connection between the photosensitive chip 6 and the circuit board 200.
[0048] Optionally, the reflective element 13 and the first lens assembly 11 are arranged along the second direction, and the reflective element 13 and the second lens assembly 12 are arranged along the first direction.
[0049] In the embodiment of the present application, the reflector 13 is arranged along the second direction with the first lens assembly 11, and is arranged along the first direction with the second lens assembly 12, so that the reflector 13 can be arranged between the optical path of the first lens assembly and the optical path of the second lens assembly, so that the reflector 13 can transmit the light collected by the first lens assembly 11 to the second lens assembly 12.
[0050] For example, the second lens assembly 12 is disposed on one side of the first lens assembly 11 in the first direction, and the second lens assembly 12 protrudes from the first lens assembly 11 along the second direction, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the first direction is the left-right direction, and the second direction is the up-down direction. The second lens assembly 12 can be arranged on the right side of the first lens assembly 11, and at the same time, the second lens assembly 12 protrudes below the first lens assembly 11, that is, the second lens assembly 12 can be arranged at the top corner of the lower right side of the first lens assembly 11. The reflector 13 is arranged between the optical path of the first lens assembly and the optical path of the second lens assembly, and can receive and change the light passing through the first lens assembly, and then transmit the converted light to the second lens assembly 12.
[0051] Optionally, the optical axis S1 of the first lens assembly 11 is parallel to the second direction, and the optical axis S2 of the second lens assembly 12 is parallel to the first direction; the reflector 13 is disposed at the intersection of the optical axis S1 of the first lens assembly 11 and the optical axis S2 of the second lens assembly 12 .
[0052] In the embodiment of the present application, since the reflector 13 is arranged along the second direction with the first lens assembly 11 and along the first direction with the second lens assembly 12, the optical axis S1 of the first lens assembly 11 is parallel to the second direction, and the optical axis S2 of the second lens assembly 12 is parallel to the first direction, it is convenient to ensure that the reflector 13 transmits the light collected by the first lens assembly 11 to the second lens assembly 12.
[0053] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the light passes through the first lens assembly 11 along the second direction and is then reflected by the reflector 13 to the first direction, so that the light can pass through the second lens assembly 12 along the first direction, which can improve the utilization rate of the light and further improve the imaging effect.
[0054] Optionally, the reflector 13 includes a first reflective surface 131 , which is disposed at an angle to the first direction and the second direction respectively, and is used to reflect light incident along the second direction to be emitted in the first direction.
[0055] In the embodiment of the present application, the first reflective surface 131 is disposed at an angle to the first direction and the second direction, respectively, so as to ensure that the reflective element 13 transmits the light collected by the first lens assembly 11 to the second lens assembly 12 .
[0056] Specifically, the first reflective surface 131 may be a reflective plane to improve the reflection effect of light and reduce loss. For example, when the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction, the first reflective surface 131 and the first direction form an angle of 45 degrees, and the first reflective surface 131 and the second direction form an angle of 45 degrees, so that light is emitted toward the first reflective surface 131 along the second direction, and can be reflected by the first reflective surface 131 to be emitted in the first direction.
[0057] Optionally, the reflector 13 includes a reflector or a prism, which can improve the structural diversity of the reflector 13 .
[0058] Specifically, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the reflector 13 may be a reflector, which is arranged at an angle with the first direction and the second direction, and a first reflective surface 131 is arranged on one side of the reflector facing the first lens assembly 11 and the second lens assembly 12. In other cases, the reflector 13 may also be a prism, which is not specifically limited in the present embodiment.
[0059] For example, the reflector 13 may be a right-angle prism, the inclined surface of which is set as the first reflective surface 131, one plane of which is perpendicular to the incident direction of the light, and the other plane of which is perpendicular to the emitting direction of the light, thereby reducing the loss of light.
[0060] Optionally, the first optical path conversion element 21 is arranged on a side of the second lens assembly 12 away from the first lens assembly 11 in the first direction; the first optical path conversion element 21 includes a second reflective surface 211, and the second reflective surface 211 is respectively arranged at an angle to the first direction and the second direction, for reflecting the light incident along the first direction to be emitted in the second direction.
[0061] In the embodiment of the present application, the second reflective surface 211 is disposed at an angle to the first direction and the second direction respectively, so that the first optical path conversion element 21 can change the light passing through the second lens assembly 12 to be emitted in the second direction.
[0062] For example, when the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction, the second reflecting surface 211 and the first direction form an angle of 45 degrees, and the second reflecting surface 211 and the second direction form an angle of 45 degrees, so that the light is emitted along the first direction toward the second reflecting surface 211, and then can be reflected by the second reflecting surface 211 to be emitted in the second direction.
[0063] Optionally, the first optical path conversion element 21 includes one of a reflector and a prism, which can improve the structural diversity of the first optical path conversion element 21.
[0064] Specifically, the first optical path conversion element 21 may be a prism, for example, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first optical path conversion element 21 can be a right-angle prism, and the inclined surface of the right-angle prism is set as the second reflection surface 211, one plane of which is perpendicular to the incident direction of the light, and the other plane is perpendicular to the emitting direction of the light, which can reduce the loss of light. In other cases, the first optical path conversion element 21 can also be a reflector, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application.
[0065] In some optional embodiments, the second optical path conversion element 22 includes a third reflection surface 221, a fourth reflection surface 222 and a fifth reflection surface 223; the fourth reflection surface 222 is arranged between the third reflection surface 221 and the fifth reflection surface 223, and the fourth reflection surface 222 is arranged at an angle to the third reflection surface 221 and the fifth reflection surface 223 respectively; wherein the light reflected by the third reflection surface 221 is reflected by the fourth reflection surface 222 to the fifth reflection surface 223.
[0066] In the embodiment of the present application, the third reflection surface 221 can reflect the light to the fourth reflection surface 222, the fourth reflection surface 222 can further reflect the light to the fifth reflection surface 223, and the fifth reflection surface 223 can further reflect the light, so that the light can be reflected multiple times in the second optical path conversion element 22, which can increase the optical path of the light and realize the super-telephoto shooting function of the camera module.
[0067] Specifically, the third reflection surface 221, the fourth reflection surface 222 and the fifth reflection surface 223 may be integrated into the same component, or may be integrated into different components respectively, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.
[0068] Specifically, the light reflected by the fifth reflection surface may be transmitted to the photosensitive element, or the light reflected by the fifth reflection surface may continue to be converted.
[0069] Optionally, the second optical path conversion element 22 includes one of a trapezoidal prism, a parallelogram prism, and a reflector group, which can improve the structural diversity of the second optical path conversion element 22.
[0070] Specifically, the second optical path conversion element 22 may include three reflectors, and the three reflectors may be respectively provided with a third reflective surface 221, a fourth reflective surface 222, and a fifth reflective surface 223. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the second optical path conversion element 22 may also be a trapezoidal prism.
[0071] Furthermore, the angle between the fourth reflection surface 222 and the third reflection surface 221 is equal to the angle between the fourth reflection surface 222 and the fifth reflection surface 223, the fourth reflection surface 222 is parallel to the first direction, and the third reflection surface 221 and the fifth reflection surface 223 are both set at an angle to the second direction; the third reflection surface and the fifth reflection surface are both arranged on the side of the fourth reflection surface away from the first optical path conversion element; wherein the third reflection surface 221 reflects the light incident along the second direction to the fourth reflection surface 222, and the fifth reflection surface 223 reflects the light passing through the fourth reflection surface 222 to be emitted in the second direction.
[0072] In the embodiment of the present application, the angle between the fourth reflection surface 222 and the third reflection surface 221 is equal to the angle between the fourth reflection surface 222 and the fifth reflection surface 223, the fourth reflection surface 222 is parallel to the first direction, and the third reflection surface 221 and the fifth reflection surface 223 are both set at an angle to the second direction, which is convenient for limiting the light from entering the second optical path conversion element 22 along the second direction, and then emitting from the second optical path conversion element 22 from the second direction, so as to control the optical path of the light and improve the imaging reliability of the camera module 100.
[0073] Specifically, the fourth reflection surface 222 can be arranged close to the first optical path conversion element 21, and the fourth reflection surface 222 is parallel to the first direction, so that the light in the second direction reflected by the first optical path conversion element 21 can pass through the fourth reflection surface 222 vertically without being reflected and refracted, thereby reducing the loss of light.
[0074] Specifically, the angle between the fourth reflection surface 222 and the third reflection surface 221 is equal to the angle between the fourth reflection surface 222 and the fifth reflection surface 223, the fourth reflection surface 222 is parallel to the first direction, and the third reflection surface 221 and the fifth reflection surface 223 are both set at an angle to the second direction, so that the third reflection surface 221, the fourth reflection surface 222 and the fifth reflection surface 223 can be enclosed to form an isosceles trapezoid. In some embodiments, the second optical path conversion element 22 can be an isosceles trapezoidal prism.
[0075] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown by the arrow, the incident light enters the first lens assembly 11 along the second direction, the light emitted from the first lens assembly 11 is reflected by the reflector 13 and enters the second lens assembly 12, the light emitted from the second lens assembly 12 is reflected by the first optical path conversion element 21 to the second optical path conversion element 22, and the second optical path conversion element 22 further converts the light and then enters the photosensitive chip 6 for imaging.
[0076] Optionally, the third reflective surface 221 and the fifth reflective surface 223 are arranged along the first direction, so that the second optical path conversion element 22 can be arranged along the first direction. The third reflective surface 221 and the fifth reflective surface 223 are arranged along a third direction, and the third direction intersects with the plane where the first direction and the second direction are located, so that the second optical path conversion element 22 can be arranged along the third direction. In the embodiment of the present application, the second optical path conversion element 22 can be arranged along the first direction or along the third direction, which is convenient for the reasonable layout of the camera module 100.
[0077] Specifically, Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the third reflection surface 221 and the fifth reflection surface 223 are arranged at intervals along the third direction, so that the second optical path conversion element 22 is arranged along the third direction, the first optical component 1 is arranged along the first direction, and the camera module 100 can be designed in an "L" shape, which is conducive to the stacking and layout of the electronic device; Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the third reflection surface 221 and the fifth reflection surface 223 are spaced apart along the first direction, so that the second optical path conversion element 22 and the first optical component 1 are arranged along the first direction, and the camera module 100 can be designed in an "I" shape.
