Detailed implementation manners

[0047] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present application. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present application without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0048] The orientation terms involved in the embodiments of the present application, such as "upper", "lower", "side", etc., generally take the relative relationship of the orientation shown in Figure 1 as the reference, and the use of these orientation terms is only to more clearly describe the relationship between structures and structures, rather than to describe the absolute orientation. When the product is placed in different postures, the orientation may change. For example, "upper" and "lower" may be interchanged.

[0049] Unless otherwise defined, all technical terms used in the embodiments of the present application have the same meaning as commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the art. Some technical terms that appear in the embodiments of the present application are described below.

[0050] To make the technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the embodiments of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0051] A first aspect of this application provides an aperture adjustment mechanism, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown. The aperture adjustment mechanism includes a base 1, a driving unit 2, and an aperture 3. The base 1 has a driving hole 101 that extends to the edge of the base 1, and the aperture 3 has a light passing hole 301. Among them, the aperture 3 is connected to the base 1, and the aperture 3 can move relative to the base 1. The driving unit 2 is in transmission connection with the aperture 3 to be able to drive the aperture 3 to adjust the size of the light passing hole 301. The driving unit 2 has a contact surface 21, the contact surface 21 is located in the driving hole 101, the contact surface 21 is parallel and opposite to the wall surface of the driving hole 101, and an installation gap 100 is formed between the contact surface 21 and the wall surface of the driving hole 101.

[0052] It can be understood that the light passing hole 301 of the aperture 3 can allow light to pass through. The driving unit 2 is in transmission connection with the aperture 3 and plays a driving role on the aperture 3, so that the light incident amount of the light passing hole 301 can be adjusted. The driving hole 101 provides a space for the driving unit 2 to move, which is beneficial for the driving unit 2 to drive the aperture 3 to adjust the size of the light passing hole 301 to adjust the light incident amount. The contact surface 21 is parallel and opposite to the wall surface of the driving hole 101. When the aperture adjustment mechanism of this application collides, the two can form a surface contact to reduce the pressure when the two collide, thereby reducing the debris generated by the collision between the two, and further reducing the occurrence of black spots.

[0053] When the aperture adjustment mechanism of this application is applied to an electronic device, after being used for a period of time, black spots may appear in the images obtained by some electronic devices. When studying this problem, the inventor found that the reason for the generation of black spots is that the image sensor of the electronic device is blocked by debris. After a large number of experimental explorations, the inventor summarized that most of the electronic devices with black spots have experienced dropping or collision situations.

[0054] Based on this, the inventor made improvements. Specifically, the inventor found that there is often an installation gap 100 between two relatively movable components, which causes the impact generated by the collision to cause the two components with the installation gap 100 to collide. Since the corners of the two components are relatively sharp, excessive pressure will be generated during the collision, resulting in damage to the components, and then debris will be generated. The debris will adhere to the image sensor as the user uses the electronic device and causes shaking of the electronic device, resulting in the generation of black spots.

[0055] To this end, in the present application, the driving unit 2 is arranged parallel and opposite to the wall surface of the driving hole 101, so that when the electronic device drops or collides, the two can form a surface contact. Under the same collision conditions, the pressure between the driving unit 2 and the driving hole 101 that form a surface contact is smaller than that between the driving unit 2 and the driving hole 101 that do not form a surface contact. Therefore, the situation of breakage and generation of debris is less, and the situation of generating black spots can be reduced.

[0056] In some embodiments of the present application, the base 1 supports the aperture 3 and the driving unit 2. The base 1 can also be used to accommodate and install the lens and support the lens. Light passes through the light passing hole 301 and falls on the lens, and an image can be formed. The base 1 can also move to adjust the position of the aperture 3.

[0057] In some embodiments of the present application, the driving unit 2 drives the aperture 3, and it can drive the aperture 3 to rotate, thereby adjusting the size of the light passing hole 301. In some embodiments of the present application, the size of the light passing hole 301 can be the area or shape of the light passing hole 301.

[0058] In some embodiments of the present application, the aperture 3 controls the light of the light passing hole 301 by controlling the size of the light passing hole 301. The aperture 3 can include a plurality of sub-components, each sub-component has a corresponding rotation center, and adjacent sub-components will block each other when rotating, thereby enclosing the light passing hole 301. The shape of the light passing hole 301 can be a polygon or a circle.

[0059] In summary, the aperture adjustment mechanism of the present application forms a surface contact between the driving unit 2 and the base 1 when a collision occurs, thereby reducing the debris generated by the collision between the two, and reducing the situation of generating black spots in imaging.

[0060] In some embodiments of the present application, a first chamfer is formed on the side of the wall surface of the driving hole 101 close to the installation gap 100, and the first chamfer is located at the end of the driving hole 101. Such a setting can prevent the driving unit 2 from colliding with the end of the driving hole 101 and generating debris.

[0061] It can be understood that since the collision situation is not predictable, the collision position between the wall surface of the driving hole 101 and the driving unit 2 is also not fixed. To prevent the driving unit 2 from colliding with the end of the driving hole 101 and generating debris, a first chamfer is formed on the side of the wall surface of the driving hole 101 close to the installation gap 100, thereby increasing the contact area between the end of the driving hole 101 and the driving unit 2 when a collision occurs.

[0062] In some embodiments of the present application, the end of the driving unit 2 extending from the driving hole 101 forms a second chamfer. Such a setting can prevent the driving unit 2 from colliding with other components and generating debris.

[0063] It can be understood that the second chamfer can smooth the end of the driving unit 2 extending from the driving hole 101, thereby preventing a sharp structure from being formed at this position and colliding with other components to generate debris.

[0064] In some embodiments of the present application, as Figure 2 shown, the driving unit 2 has a buffer portion 22. The buffer portion 22 is located on the side of the driving unit 2 close to the installation gap 100, and the contact surface 21 is located on the buffer portion 22.

[0065] It can be understood that the buffer portion 22 can reduce the size of the installation gap 100, and further reduce the distance between the driving unit 2 and the driving hole 101, which is beneficial to reducing the impact when the two collide.

[0066] Optionally, the buffer portion 22 can be an elastic structure to absorb the impact during collision and reduce the generation of debris.

[0067] In some embodiments of the present application, as Figure 3 shown, the number of driving holes 101 is at least two. The number of contact surfaces 21 corresponds to the number of driving holes 101, and there is a contact surface 21 in each driving hole 101.

[0068] It can be understood that such a setting can enable the base 1 to support multiple positions of the driving unit 2 through the driving holes 101, thereby improving the support stability of the base 1 for the driving unit 2.

[0069] Optionally, the number of driving holes 101 is two, and the two driving holes 101 are arranged at intervals along the moving direction of the driving unit 2.

[0070] Optionally, the number of driving holes 101 can also be 2, 3, 4 or 5, or other numbers.

[0071] In some embodiments of the present application, as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, the aperture 3 includes a first blade 31 and a second blade 32. The first blade 31 and the second blade 32 enclose a light passing hole 301. The first blade 31 has a first opening and closing groove 3101, and the second blade 32 has a second opening and closing groove 3201. Both the first blade 31 and the second blade 32 are connected to the base 1 and can rotate relative to the base 1. The driving unit 2 has a driving rod 23, and the driving rod 23 extends into the first opening and closing groove 3101 and the second opening and closing groove 3201 to be able to drive the first blade 31 and the second blade 32 to approach and separate from each other.

[0072] It can be understood that the first blade 31 and the second blade 32 can enclose a light-transmitting hole 301. Both the first blade 31 and the second blade 32 are connected to the base 1, and the positions where they are connected to the base 1 respectively form rotation centers. The driving rod 23 extends into the first opening / closing groove 3101 and the second opening / closing groove 3201. By applying a driving force to the side walls of the first opening / closing groove 3101 and the second opening / closing groove 3201, the first blade 31 and the second blade 32 can be rotated. When the first blade 31 and the second blade rotate and approach each other, the size of the light-transmitting hole 301 will be reduced. When the first blade 31 and the second blade rotate and move away from each other, the size of the light-transmitting hole 301 will be increased. In this way, the light incident amount can be adjusted.

[0073] Optionally, the first opening / closing groove 3101 and the second opening / closing groove 3201 are arranged in parallel, and the first opening / closing groove 3101 and the second opening / closing groove 3201 are symmetrically arranged with respect to the moving direction of the driving rod 23 as the axis of symmetry.

[0074] Optionally, a first notch is formed on the side of the first blade 31 close to the second blade 32, and a second notch is formed on the side of the second blade 32 close to the first blade 31. The first notch and the second notch are connected to form the light-transmitting hole 301.

[0075] In some embodiments of the present application, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the driving unit 2 includes a transmission body 211 and a first driving assembly 212. The transmission body 211 is in transmission connection with the first driving assembly 212 and the aperture 3. A part of the transmission body 211 extends into the driving hole 101 and can move along the extending direction of the driving hole 101. The first driving assembly 212 drives the aperture 3 through the transmission body 211 to adjust the size of the light-transmitting hole 301.

[0076] It can be understood that the transmission body 211 plays a transmission role. The first driving assembly 212 can drive the aperture 3 through the transmission body 211, and then adjust the size of the aperture 3. At the same time, the driving hole 101 of the base 1 can support the transmission body 211, which is beneficial to improving the transmission stability of the transmission body 211.

[0077] Optionally, the first driving assembly 212 can be directly connected to the transmission body 211 to play a transmission role, or can be in transmission connection with the transmission body 211 through other components.

[0078] In some embodiments of the present application, such as Figure 3As shown, the first driving component 212 includes a first magnetic part 2121 and a first coil 2122. The first magnetic part 2121 is fixed to the transmission body 211, and the first coil 2122 and the first magnetic part 2121 are arranged opposite to each other along a direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the transmission body 211.

[0079] It can be understood that when the first coil 2122 is not energized, it has no influence on the first magnetic part 2121, and the transmission body 211 remains in a relatively static state. After the first coil 2122 is energized, due to the existence of a magnetic field in the first magnetic part 2121, it will be affected by the Ampere force. Since the first magnetic part 2121 is fixed to the transmission body 211, the Ampere force will cause the first magnetic part 2121 to drive the transmission body 211 to move, thereby realizing the driving effect on the aperture 3 and adjusting the size of the light passing hole 301.

[0080] In some embodiments of the present application, as Figure 6 shown, the aperture adjusting mechanism further includes a first ball 4. The first ball 4 is located between the transmission body 211 and the base 1 and is in contact with the transmission body 211 and the base 1 respectively.

[0081] It can be understood that the first ball 4 can change the sliding friction between the transmission body 211 and the base 1 into rolling friction, so as to reduce the friction force between the two, which is beneficial for the first driving component 212 to drive the transmission body 211.

[0082] Optionally, there are 4 first balls 4, which are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the transmission body 211.

[0083] In some embodiments of the present application, as Figure 6 and Figure 9 shown, the base 1 includes a base body 11, a first movable seat 12 and a second driving component 13. The aperture 3 and the driving unit 2 are both connected to the base body 11. The base body 11 and the first movable seat 12 are stacked along a first direction. The second driving component 13 is connected to the base body 11 so that the base body 11 can move relative to the first movable seat 12 along a second direction, and the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction. Such a setting is beneficial to improving the adjustment performance of the aperture adjusting mechanism of the present application.

[0084] It can be understood that the base body 11 plays a supporting role for the driving unit 2 and the aperture 3, which is beneficial for the driving unit 2 to drive the aperture 3 to adjust the size of the light passing hole 301. The first movable seat 12 can enable the base body 11 to move relatively under the drive of the second driving component 13, thereby adjusting the position of the aperture 3 to change the light passing through the light passing hole 301 and helping the user to obtain an image that meets the expectations.

[0085] Optionally, as Figure 6As shown, the base 11 may include a first sub-base 111 and a second sub-base 112. The first sub-base 111 is connected to the second sub-base 112. The first sub-base 111 may support the driving unit 2 and the aperture 3, and the second sub-base 112 may be connected to the first movable base 12, thereby driving the aperture 3 and the driving unit 2 to move.

[0086] In some embodiments of the present application, as Figure 9 shown, the second driving assembly 13 includes a second magnetic part 131 and a second coil 132. The second magnetic part 131 is fixed to the base 11, and the second coil 132 and the second magnetic part 131 are arranged opposite to each other in a direction perpendicular to the first direction.

[0087] It can be understood that when the second coil 132 is not energized, it has no influence on the second magnetic part 131, and the transmission body 211 remains in a relatively stationary state. After the second coil 132 is energized, due to the presence of a magnetic field in the second magnetic part 131, it will be affected by the Ampere force. Since the second magnetic part 131 is fixed to the base 11, the Ampere force will cause the second magnetic part 131 to drive the base 11 to move, thereby adjusting the position of the base 11 in the second direction to change the light passing through the light passing hole 301 and helping the user to obtain an image that meets the expectations.

[0088] In some embodiments of the present application, as Figure 7 shown, the base 1 further includes a second ball 102. The second ball 102 is located between the first movable base 12 and the base 11 in the first direction and is in contact with the first movable base 12 and the base 11 respectively.

[0089] It can be understood that the second ball 102 can change the sliding friction between the first movable base 12 and the base 11 into rolling friction, so as to reduce the friction between the two, which is beneficial for the second driving assembly 13 to drive the base 11.

[0090] Optionally, there are 4 first balls 4, which are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the base 11.

[0091] In some embodiments of the present application, as Figure 6 and Figure 9 shown, the base 1 further includes a second movable base 14 and a third driving assembly 15. The second movable base 14 and the first movable base 12 are stacked in the first direction. The third driving assembly 15 is connected to the base 11 so that the base 11 can drive the first movable base 12 to move relative to the second movable base 14 in a third direction, and the third direction is perpendicular to both the second direction and the first direction. Such a setting is beneficial to improving the adjustment performance of the aperture adjustment mechanism of the present application.

[0092] It can be understood that the seat body 11 is driven by the third driving component 15 to drive the first movable seat 12 to move relative to the second movable seat 14 in the third direction, so as to adjust the position of the aperture 3 in the third direction, change the light passing through the light passing hole 301, and help the user obtain an image that meets expectations. In addition, since the first movable seat 12 can be driven by the seat body 11 to move, the situation where the seat body 11 and the first movable seat 12 interfere with each other can be avoided.

[0093] In some embodiments of the present application, such as Figure 9 shown, the third driving component 15 includes a third magnetic part 151 and a third coil 152. The third magnetic part 151 is fixed to the seat body 11, and the third coil 152 and the third magnetic part 151 are arranged opposite to each other in a direction perpendicular to the first direction.

[0094] It can be understood that when the third coil 152 is not energized, it does not affect the third magnetic part 151, and the seat body 11 remains in a relatively static state. After the third coil 152 is energized, due to the existence of a magnetic field in the third magnetic part 151, it will be affected by the Ampere force. Since the third magnetic part 151 is fixed to the seat body 11, the Ampere force will drive the seat body 11 and the first movable seat 12 to move, thereby adjusting the position of the seat body 11 in the third direction, changing the light passing through the light passing hole 301, and helping the user obtain an image that meets expectations.

[0095] In some embodiments of the present application, such as Figure 7 shown, the base 1 further includes a third ball 103. The third ball 103 is located between the first movable seat 12 and the second movable seat 14 in the first direction and abuts against the first movable seat 12 and the second movable seat 14 respectively.

[0096] It can be understood that the third ball 103 can change the sliding friction between the first movable seat 12 and the second movable seat 14 into rolling friction, so as to reduce the friction between the two, which is beneficial to the third driving component 15 to drive the seat body 11.

[0097] Optionally, the number of the third balls 103 is 4, and they are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the first movable seat 12.

[0098] In some embodiments of the present application, such as Figure 6 and Figure 10 shown, the base 1 further includes a third movable seat 16 and a fourth driving component 17. The third movable seat 16 and the second movable seat 14 are stacked in the first direction. The fourth driving component 17 is respectively connected to the second movable seat 14 and the third movable seat 16 to drive the second movable seat 14 to drive the seat body 11 to move in the first direction. Such a setting is beneficial to improving the adjustment performance of the aperture adjustment mechanism of the present application.

[0099] It can be understood that the third movable seat 16 supports the second movable seat 14. Driven by the fourth driving component 17, the second movable seat 14 drives the seat body 11 to move in the first direction, and the position of the aperture 3 can be adjusted to change the light passing through the light passing hole 301, helping the user to obtain an image that meets the expectations.

[0100] In some embodiments of the present application, such as Figure 10 As shown, the fourth driving component 17 includes a fourth magnetic part 171 and a fourth coil 172. The fourth magnetic part 171 is fixed to the third movable seat 16, the fourth coil 172 is fixed to the second movable seat 14, and the fourth coil 172 and the fourth magnetic part 171 are arranged opposite to each other in a direction perpendicular to the first direction.

[0101] It can be understood that when the fourth coil 172 is not energized, it has no influence on the fourth magnetic part 171, and the third movable seat 16 remains in a relatively static state. After the fourth coil 172 is energized, due to the existence of a magnetic field in the fourth magnetic part 171, it will be affected by the Ampere force. Since the fourth magnetic part 171 is fixed to the third movable seat 16, the Ampere force will cause the fourth magnetic part 171 to drive the third movable seat 16 and the seat body 11 to move, thereby adjusting the position of the seat body 11 in the first direction to change the light passing through the light passing hole 301, helping the user to obtain an image that meets the expectations.

[0102] In some embodiments of the present application, such as Figure 8 As shown, the base 1 further includes a fourth ball 104. The second movable seat 14 and the third movable seat 16 are stacked in the first direction. The fourth ball 104 is located between the third movable seat 16 and the second movable seat 14 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction and is in contact with the third movable seat 16 and the second movable seat 14 respectively.

[0103] It can be understood that the fourth ball 104 can change the sliding friction between the third movable seat 16 and the second movable seat 14 into rolling friction, so that the friction between the two can be reduced, which is beneficial to the fourth driving component 17 to drive the third movable seat 16.

[0104] Optionally, the fourth balls 104 are arranged in two rows and spaced apart in the first direction.

[0105] The second aspect of the present application provides an imaging module. The imaging module includes a lens and an aperture adjustment mechanism as described in the above technical solution. The lens is located at one end of the light passing hole 301.

[0106] It can be understood that since the same aperture adjustment mechanism as that in the above embodiment is adopted, the imaging module of the present application has the same technical effects as the above aperture adjustment mechanism, which will not be elaborated here.

[0107] It can be understood that the lens is located at one end of the light passing hole 301 and can change its light intake according to the size change of the light passing hole 301, thereby making the imaging effect of the lens meet the user's expectations.

[0108] The third aspect of the present application provides an electronic device, and the electronic device includes an imaging module as described in the above technical solution.

[0109] It can be understood that since the same imaging module as that in the above embodiment is adopted, the electronic device of the present application has the same technical effects as those in the above embodiment, and will not be elaborated here.
