Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The embodiments of the present application relate to the field of camera technologies, and particularly to a camera component, a camera module, and an electronic device. Background Art
[0002] Electronic devices usually have a camera module to meet the needs of taking pictures or videos. To balance the requirements of ultra-thinness and telephoto shooting of electronic devices, periscope camera modules are widely used in electronic devices. The periscope camera module includes a camera component, and the camera component includes a driving component and a prism. The driving component can drive the prism to rotate around two directions to adjust the optical path, so as to achieve optical image stabilization. However, when the prism adjusts its position, the two directions often interfere with each other, resulting in difficult adjustment and seriously affecting the quality of pictures or video images. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of the embodiments of the present application is to provide a camera component with relatively high adjustment accuracy. Another purpose of the embodiments of the present application is to provide a camera module and an electronic device including the above camera component.
[0004] The embodiments of the present application provide a camera component, including:
[0005] A prism having a light incident surface and a light exit surface;
[0006] A first mounting body, on which the prism is mounted;
[0007] A second mounting body and a first rotating shaft, the first mounting body is rotationally supported on the second mounting body by the first rotating shaft, and the axial direction of the first rotating shaft is parallel to the light incident surface, and the axial direction of the first rotating shaft is the first direction;
[0008] A base and a second rotating shaft, the second mounting body is rotationally supported on the base by the second rotating shaft, and the axial direction of the second rotating shaft is parallel to the light exit surface, and the axial direction of the second rotating shaft is the second direction;
[0009] A first driving component for driving the first mounting body to rotate relative to the second mounting body around the first rotating shaft;
[0010] A second driving component for driving the second mounting body to rotate relative to the base around the second rotating shaft.
[0011] In the implementation of this application, the first rotating shaft is connected between the first mounting body and the second mounting body. The first driving component drives the first mounting body to rotate around the first rotating shaft, so as to realize the rotation of the prism around the first direction. The second rotating shaft is connected between the second mounting body and the base. The second driving component drives the second mounting body to rotate around the second rotating shaft, so as to realize the rotation of the prism around the second direction. In this way, according to the shaking direction and shaking angle of the electronic device, the first mounting body can be driven to rotate around the first rotating shaft, and / or the second mounting body can be driven to rotate around the second rotating shaft, so as to compensate for the shaking amount of the electronic device. Since the first rotating shaft and the second rotating shaft are separately arranged, the rotation adjustment of the prism around the first direction and the second direction does not interfere with each other, improving the adjustment accuracy of the camera assembly and making the control relatively simple.
[0012] In one example, the second mounting body includes a first side wall and a second side wall. The space between the first side wall and the second side wall is used to mount the first mounting body. The first rotating shaft penetrates the first mounting body. The first rotating shaft includes two end shaft segments, and the two end shaft segments are respectively rotationally supported on the first side wall and the second side wall. In this way, the first mounting body is rotationally supported on the first side wall and the second side wall through the two ends of the same first rotating shaft. Only by ensuring the machining accuracy of the first rotating shaft can the coaxiality of the rotation of the first mounting body and the two side walls of the second mounting body be realized, which is beneficial to improving the quality of the camera assembly.
[0013] In one example, there are also two first bushings. The two first bushings are respectively fixed on the first side wall and the second side wall. The surface of the first bushing facing the first rotating shaft is provided with a first mounting hole, and the end shaft segment is rotationally installed in the first mounting hole. On the one hand, this can reduce the machining difficulty of the first side wall and the second side wall. On the other hand, the first bushing can be made of a material different from that of the second mounting body. For example, the first bushing uses a metal material with higher strength to improve the wear resistance between the first bushing and the first rotating shaft.
[0014] In one example, the first mounting hole is a through hole. The camera assembly further includes a baffle. A baffle is fixed on the side wall of each first bushing facing away from the first rotating shaft to block the first mounting hole. The first rotating shaft is located between the two baffles. The first mounting hole being a through hole can improve the concentricity of the first bushing.
[0015] In one example, the hardness of the baffle material is greater than that of the first bushing material. The baffle material can be stainless steel, and the first bushing can be made of copper with good wear resistance. The large hardness of the baffle material can improve the overall impact resistance of the camera assembly.
[0016] In one example, the first driving component includes a first magnet assembly and a first electromagnetic coil, the first magnet assembly is located on the first mounting body, and the first electromagnetic coil is installed on the base, or the first magnet assembly is located on the base, and the first electromagnetic coil is installed on the first mounting body. The force for driving the first mounting body to rotate is provided by the cooperation of the coil and the magnet, the structure is relatively simple, and the current passed into the coil is controllable, the adjustment flexibility is relatively high and the adjustment accuracy is relatively high, and in this example, one of the first magnet assembly or the first electromagnetic coil is installed on the base, which is easy to install.
[0017] In one example, the first magnet assembly and the first electromagnetic coil are arranged along a third direction, a first opening is provided between the first side wall and the second side wall of the second mounting body along the third direction, and the first magnet assembly and the first electromagnetic coil are located between the first side wall and the second side wall, wherein the third direction is a direction perpendicular to the light emitting surface. In this embodiment, there is no intermediate barrier between the first magnet assembly and the first electromagnetic coil, so as to minimize the influence on the magnetic field strength generated by the first electromagnetic coil, which is conducive to generating a driving force that meets the rotation adjustment requirements with a smaller volume.
[0018] The first magnet assembly and the first electromagnetic coil are respectively mounted on the surfaces of the first mounting body and the base that are opposite to each other. The first electromagnetic coil is mounted on the base to facilitate connection with the flexible circuit board.
[0019] In one example, the second mounting body further includes a connecting wall, the connecting wall is connected between the first side wall and the second side wall, the connecting wall is located on the side of the first side wall away from the light-incoming surface, the connecting wall supports the base through the second rotating shaft, and the connecting wall is movably supported on the base. The second mounting body of this structure is simple in structure and relatively light in weight.
[0020] In one example, the first surface of the first mounting body facing away from the light-incoming surface has a first concave cavity, the connecting wall has a first protruding portion, the first protruding portion is at least partially located inside the first concave cavity, and the second rotating shaft is at least partially disposed on the first protruding portion. The first concave cavity can provide an escape space for the installation of the first protruding portion, which is beneficial for reducing the size of the camera assembly along the first direction, and the second rotating shaft is disposed on the first protruding portion, which can improve the strength of the second mounting body connecting to the second rotating shaft position.
[0021] In one example, the second surface of the connecting wall facing away from the first mounting body has a second concave cavity, the base has a second protrusion, the second protrusion is at least partially located in the second concave cavity, and the other end of the second shaft is connected to the second protrusion. In this embodiment, the second protrusion is arranged at the position where the second shaft is arranged on the base, and the second protrusion is relatively thick, which can improve the strength of the position where the second shaft is arranged, and the second concave cavity is arranged on the surface of the second mounting body opposite to the second protrusion, and the second concave cavity can provide an installation space for the second protrusion, taking into account both the reliability of use and the small volume.
[0022] In one example, the first protruding portion and the second protruding portion are provided with coaxial through holes, and a second shaft sleeve is fixed inside each through hole. Both ends of the second rotating shaft are respectively installed in the two second shaft sleeves. The second shaft sleeve is machined independently of the second mounting body and the base, which is beneficial to reducing the machining difficulty of the through hole, and the second shaft sleeve can adopt a material different from that of the second mounting body and the base to improve the wear resistance of the rotating connection position.
[0023] In one example, it further includes at least one ferromagnetic body installed on the base. The ferromagnetic body and the first electromagnetic coil are on the same side of the base. The first magnet assembly is also used to cooperate with the ferromagnetic body to generate a force for the first mounting body to return to the initial mounting position; a force can always exist between the first magnet assembly and the ferromagnetic body. For example, the ferromagnetic body is a steel sheet. Of course, the ferromagnetic body can also be a coil. When the first mounting body needs to return to the initial mounting position, a force is generated between the first magnet assembly and the ferromagnetic body. In the embodiment of the present application, by using the first magnet assembly in the first driving component, only by installing a ferromagnetic body on the base, the auxiliary positioning force for the first mounting body to be in the initial position can be provided. The first mounting body can maintain a stable state, occupies a small space, and is convenient to install.
[0024] In one example, it further includes a flexible circuit board assembly. The flexible circuit board assembly includes a flexible circuit board and a support plate. At least part of the flexible circuit board and the first electromagnetic coil are connected to the base through the support plate. The first electromagnetic coil is electrically connected to the flexible circuit board, and the ferromagnetic body is installed on the support plate, and the installation flexibility is relatively high. Of course, the ferromagnetic body can also be directly installed on the base.
[0025] In one example, at least one ball is provided between the connecting wall and the base. The ball is located in the second concave cavity and on the circumference of the second protruding portion. The cavity wall of the second concave cavity can rotate relative to the base through the ball. The ball moves flexibly. The ball is located between the circumferential wall of the second concave cavity and the circumferential wall of the second protruding portion, so that the height occupied by the ball in the second direction can be minimized, which is beneficial to the miniaturized design of the camera assembly.
[0026] In one example, the main bodies of the connecting wall and the base are both plastic bodies, and metal bodies are fixed on both plastic bodies. The ball is located between the metal body of the connecting wall and the metal body of the base. In this embodiment, the metal body contacts the ball, and the support strength is relatively high.
[0027] In one example, it includes a first elastic sheet. The first elastic sheet connects the first mounting body and the second mounting body. The first elastic sheet is used to provide the shape of the restoring force for the first mounting body to return to the initial mounting position; the first elastic sheet can rotate with the rotation of the first mounting body. When the first electromagnetic coil is powered off, under the action of the restoring force of the first elastic sheet, the first mounting body can quickly return to the initial mounting position.
[0028] Alternatively / and, a first elastomer is installed in a partial area of the gap between the first mounting body and the second mounting body. On the one hand, the first elastomer can maintain the stability of the first mounting body in the initial mounting position. On the other hand, when the first mounting body is driven to rotate, the first elastomer will also be compressed or stretched. After the first electromagnetic coil is powered off, under the restoring force of the first elastomer, the first mounting body can quickly return to the initial mounting position.
[0029] In one example, a holding mechanism is further included, which is partially connected to the second mounting body and partially connected to the base, and is used to provide a restoring force for the second mounting body to return to the initial position.
[0030] In one example, the holding mechanism includes a second elastic piece, and the second elastic piece is simultaneously connected to the second mounting body and the base. The second elastic piece is configured to be able to provide a restoring force for the second mounting body to return to the initial position, or / and provide a shape for the second mounting body to abut against the base along the second direction.
[0031] Alternatively / and, the holding mechanism includes at least one magnetic reset unit. The magnetic reset unit includes a first element and a second element. The first element is arranged on the second mounting body, and the second element is arranged on the base. The first element and the second element attract each other to make the first mounting body maintain or / and return to the initial position; the first element and the second element can both be ferromagnetic bodies, and through the attractive force between the two, the second mounting body is maintained at or returned to the initial position.
[0032] Alternatively / and, a first elastomer is installed in a partial area of the gap between the second mounting body and the base.
[0033] In one example, the second driving component includes a second magnet assembly and a second energized coil. The second magnet assembly is arranged on the first side wall and / or the second side wall of the second mounting body, and the second energized coil is arranged on the base.
[0034] Alternatively, the second magnet assembly is arranged on the first side wall and / or the second side wall of the second mounting body, and the second magnet assembly is arranged on the base. The magnet-coil structure is simple and occupies little space.
[0035] In one example, a flexible circuit board assembly is further included. The flexible circuit board assembly includes a flexible circuit board and a support plate. At least a partial section of the flexible circuit board is positioned on the outer wall side of the base facing away from the second mounting body through the support plate. The first driving component and the second driving component are electrically connected to an external circuit through the flexible circuit board. The flexible circuit board is arranged along the outer wall side of the base, occupies little space, and the support plate plays a protective role for the flexible circuit board.
[0036] In one example, it further includes a housing which has an inner cavity. The base, the first mounting body and the second mounting body are all located in the inner cavity. A second elastic body is also installed at the corner of the second mounting body to elastically abut against the inner cavity wall of the housing. When the electronic device or the camera module accidentally drops to the ground, the second mounting body elastically contacts the housing through the second elastic body, which can protect components such as the prism.
[0037] In one example, the prism is a triangular prism, and the triangular prism further includes a refracting surface. The light incident surface and the light exiting surface are adjacent, and the refracting surface connects the light incident surface and the light exiting surface. On the premise of meeting the requirements of optical path transformation, the triangular prism has a simple structure, occupies a small space and is light in weight.
[0038] The embodiment of the present application also provides a camera module, which is characterized in that it includes a lens assembly and the camera module of any one of the above, and the light exiting surface of the camera module faces the light incident hole of the lens assembly.

[0079] The current camera assembly includes a prism, a prism support and a base. The prism is fixed on the prism support, and the prism support is in spherical mating contact with the base. The prism support rotates around its mating sphere with the base in different directions to achieve the rotation of the prism around the z-axis or the y-axis. Wherein the z-axis and the y-axis are two directions parallel to the light incident surface and the light exit surface of the prism respectively. Since the current prism supports (i.e., the devices for supporting and adjusting the prism) all rotate around the same sphere, this rotation can be a rotation around the z-axis or the y-axis. When the prism support rotates in one direction (such as the z-axis), it may cause an accidental deflection in another direction (such as the y-axis). This phenomenon is called crosstalk phenomenon, that is, when adjusting the angle in one direction, the angle in another direction will also be affected, resulting in inaccurate adjustment of the direction. How to at least overcome the above defects is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art.
[0080] The present application provides a technical solution that can reduce the probability of crosstalk phenomena occurring when the camera component is adjusted in different directions, thereby improving the accuracy of prism position control.
[0081] The following further elaborates on the embodiments of the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific examples.

[0085] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 which is Figure 1Exploded view of the electronic device shown. The screen 500 includes a light-transmitting cover plate 510 and a display screen 520. The light-transmitting cover plate 510 and the display screen 520 are stacked and fixedly connected. The light-transmitting cover plate 510 mainly serves to protect the display screen 520 and prevent dust. The material of the light-transmitting cover plate 510 includes, but is not limited to, glass, acrylic, etc. The display screen 520 can be a flexible display screen or a rigid display screen.
[0086] The middle frame 100 can include a middle plate 110 and a frame portion 120 connected to the periphery of the middle plate 110. The middle plate 110 and the frame portion 120 can be integrally formed or connected by means such as welding, bonding, screws, etc. The screen 500 and the rear cover 200 are respectively located on both sides of the middle plate 110. The material of the rear cover 200 includes, but is not limited to, metal, plastic, fiberglass board, glass, ceramic, etc. It can be understood that in some other embodiments, when the mobile phone is a folding screen mobile phone, the screen 500 and the rear cover can also be the first screen and the second screen of the foldable mobile phone respectively. For example, the screen 500 is the inner screen of the foldable mobile phone, and the rear cover 200 is the outer screen of the foldable mobile phone, or the screen 500 is the outer screen of the foldable mobile phone, and the rear cover 200 is the inner screen of the foldable mobile phone.
[0087] An installation cavity is enclosed between the rear cover 200 and the middle plate 110. Electrical components such as the main circuit board 400, the camera module 300, the battery, the speaker, and the receiver are installed inside the installation cavity. Sound holes 101 are provided on the middle frame 100 to facilitate the sound of the speaker to spread to the outside of the electronic device 1000. Exemplarily, an interface 102 can also be provided on the middle frame 100 to be electrically connected to an external device through a data cable. Among them, the camera module 300 and the main circuit board 400 can be installed on the middle plate of the middle frame 100 (the position of the middle plate is understood in combination Figure 2 ). The main circuit board 400 can be the core circuit board in the electronic device 1000 (a circuit board integrated with main components such as a processor, a system chip, and a power chip), and the camera module 300 can be electrically connected to the main circuit board 400. Exemplarily, the camera module 300 can be connected to the main circuit board 400 through a module flexible printed circuit (FPC for short) 340. A processor is provided on the main circuit board 400. The processor controls the camera module 300 to take pictures. When the user inputs a shooting instruction, the processor receives the shooting instruction and controls the camera module 300 to shoot the shooting object according to the shooting instruction.
[0088] Please refer to Figure 2, the camera module 300 can be fixed to the surface of the middle plate 110 facing the rear cover 200, and the light incident surface of the camera module 300 faces the rear cover 200. The rear cover 200 is provided with an installation opening 202, and the decorative plate 210 covers and is fixed at the installation opening 202. The decorative plate 210 is used to protect the camera module 300. A light-transmitting hole 201 is provided on the decorative plate 210. The light-transmitting hole 201 allows scene light to enter the light incident surface of the camera module 300. The camera module 300 converts the collected optical signal into an electrical signal to realize the shooting function of the camera module 300. A glass or a plastic with high transparency can also be installed at the position of the light-transmitting hole 201 as a decorative part, and at the same time, the camera module 300 can also be protected. Figure 2 An example in which a camera module 300 is provided on the back side of the electronic device 1000 is shown in Figure 2 . This camera module 300 is also called a rear camera module. In practical applications, the number of camera modules 300 in the electronic device 1000 may not be limited to one. The number of camera modules 300 can be more than one, such as one, two, three, four, Figure 2 This is an example illustration taking a rear camera module including three camera modules as an example. Each camera module 300 is set at a suitable position according to the specific structure of the electronic device 1000.
[0089] When the camera module 300 is used as a front camera, a light-transmitting area can be set on the screen 500. Of course, according to the different positions where the camera module 300 is set, a light-transmitting area can also be set at other positions of the middle frame 100.
[0090] The camera module 300 can be one or more of a standard camera module, a telephoto camera module, a wide-angle camera module, an ultra-telephoto camera module, and an ultra-wide-angle camera module. For example, in one example, the electronic device 1000 also has a front camera module.
[0091] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 3 is a perspective view of the camera module provided by the embodiment of the present application, in which only a part of the structure of the protective case 30A is shown, Figure 3 only some components included in the camera module 300 are schematically shown in Figure 3 . The actual shape, actual size, actual position, and actual structure of these components are not limited by Figure 3 and Figure 4 and the following respective drawings.
[0092] For the convenience of the description of the following embodiments, an XYZ coordinate system is established for the camera module 300. Please combine Figure 1 and Figure 3 , Figure 4Understand that the light incident axis S direction of the camera module 300 is the Z-axis direction. The XY plane formed by the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction is perpendicular to the light incident axis S direction. In some embodiments, after the camera module 300 is assembled to the electronic device 1000, the light incident axis S direction of the camera module 300 can be parallel to the thickness direction of the electronic device 1000 (combine Figure 1 and Figure 4 to understand). The plane formed by the width direction and the length direction of the electronic device 1000 is parallel to the XY plane.
[0093] Please combine Figure 3 and Figure 4 to understand, Figure 4 In the embodiments of the present application Figure 1 is the end face view of the M position in the electronic device shown. The camera module 300 in the embodiments of the present application is a periscope camera module. A periscope camera module is a kind of camera module that changes the light path direction through a refraction prism, such as refracting the light along the thickness direction (Z-axis direction) of the electronic device 1000 into the light perpendicular to the thickness direction (z-direction) of the electronic device 1000, so that each lens 321 of the lens assembly 320 and the imaging device in the camera module 300 are arranged inside the electronic device 1000 along the direction perpendicular to the thickness direction of the electronic device 1000. In this way, not only can long-focus shooting be realized, but also the size in the thickness direction of the electronic device 1000 can be reduced.
[0094] Please refer to Figure 3 shown, the camera module 300 may include a camera assembly 310, a lens assembly 320, and an image sensor assembly 330. The three may be integrated inside the same protective case 30A. Of course, the camera assembly 310, the lens assembly 320, and the image sensor assembly 330 may also be separately installed in the electronic device 1000. The camera assembly 310, the lens assembly 320, and the image sensor assembly 330 may be sequentially arranged along the light path propagation direction of the camera module. That is to say, the camera assembly 310 may be arranged on the light incident side of the lens assembly 320, and the image sensor assembly 330 is arranged on the light exiting side of the lens assembly 320. Taking the camera module 300 as a rear camera as an example, the camera assembly 310 may be arranged corresponding to the light-transmitting hole 201 on the rear cover 200. The external environmental light enters the camera assembly 310 through the light-transmitting hole 201. The camera assembly 310 reflects the light to the lens assembly 320. After the light is emitted from the lens assembly 320, it enters the image sensor assembly 330. The image sensor assembly 330 converts the optical signal into an electrical signal to realize the imaging function of the camera module 300.
[0095] Among them, the light path direction in which the external environmental light is incident on the camera assembly 310 is S. The light path direction S is usually the thickness direction of the electronic device ( Figure 1 , Figure 3 andFigure 4 In the Z direction shown in Figure 4 , the light is reflected within the camera assembly 310 and enters the lens assembly 320 in the outgoing optical path direction S1. The outgoing optical path direction S1 is generally the planar direction of the electronic device 1000. Therefore, the optical axis direction of the lens assembly 320 can be set along the planar direction of the electronic device 1000. In other words, the length direction of the lens assembly 320 can be set along the planar direction of the electronic device 1000. For example, the length direction of the lens assembly 320 can be the width direction of the electronic device 1000 (refer to the x direction in Figure 1 ) or the length direction (refer to the y direction in Figure 1 ). The camera module 300 can bend the optical path through the camera assembly 310 and arrange the lens assembly 320 along the planar direction where the electronic device 1000 is located. In this way, on the basis of ensuring the optical path length of the camera module 300, the size of the camera module 300 in the thickness direction of the electronic device 1000 can be reduced, which is beneficial to the ultra-thin design of the electronic device 1000. Figure 1 In Figure 1 Figure 1 In Figure 1
[0096] Please continue to refer to Figure 4 As shown in Figure 4 , the lens assembly 320 may include a lens barrel (not shown in Figure 4 ) and a plurality of lenses 321. The lens barrel serves as the basic support structure of the lens assembly 320, and the lenses 321 are disposed inside the lens barrel. The lenses 321 can be arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the lens barrel. Each of the lenses 321 may include a convex lens and a concave lens. Figure 4 Although the shapes of the lenses 321 are not shown in Figure 4 , it does not prevent those skilled in the art from understanding the lens assembly 320 described in this application. Each of the lenses 321 is used to focus and correct the light incident on the lens assembly 320 to achieve the imaging function of the lens assembly 320. In addition, some of the plurality of lenses 321 can move along the optical axis direction of the lens assembly 320 to magnify and reduce the shooting target, thereby realizing the optical zoom function of the camera module 300. Figure 4 In Figure 4
[0097] Of course, please refer to Figure 5 In another embodiment, a front-end lens assembly 330 may also be disposed on the light incident surface side of the camera assembly 310. The front-end lens assembly 330 may also include a lens barrel (not shown in Figure 5 ) and a plurality of lenses 331. The lenses 331 may include a convex lens and a concave lens. Figure 5 In Figure 5 Figure 5 Although the shapes of the lenses 331 are not shown in Figure 5 , it does not prevent those skilled in the art from understanding the front-end lens assembly 330 described in this application. The front-end lens assembly 330 may also be an optical zoom lens, or of course, a fixed focal length lens.
[0098] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5, in the embodiments of the present application, the image sensor assembly 330 may include an image sensor 331 and an image processing chip 332. The image sensor 331 may include a charge coupled device (CCD) or a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) phototransistor. The image sensor 331 converts the optical signal into an electrical signal, and then transmits the electrical signal to the image processing chip 332 to obtain an image signal. After the light entering the lens assembly 320 passes through each lens 321, it irradiates the photosensitive surface of the image sensor 331. The image sensor 331 converts the optical image received on its photosensitive surface into an electrical signal corresponding to the optical image in a proportional relationship. The electrical signal can be transmitted to the main circuit board 400 through the FPC by the image processing chip 332.
[0099] In some embodiments, the lens assembly 320 or the image sensor assembly 330 may further be equipped with a driving device (not shown in the figure). The driving device is used to drive the lens assembly 320 or the image sensor assembly 330 to move. For example, the driving device drives the lens assembly 320 or the image sensor 331 to translate in its own plane direction or rotate at an angle around the optical axis of the lens assembly 320, compensating for the displacement caused by the user's hand shake, preventing the captured image from being blurred, improving the clarity of the image, and realizing the optical image stabilization function of the camera module 300.
[0100] Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 , in the embodiments of the present application, the camera assembly 310 includes a housing 5, a prism 1, a first mounting body 2, a second mounting body 3, and a base 4 ( Figure 7 shown in the figure). Among them, the prism 1, the first mounting body 2, the second mounting body 3, and the base 4 are installed in the inner cavity 53 of the housing 5. The housing 5 can protect the various components installed inside it. In order to enable the light to irradiate the prism 1, the housing 5 has avoidance openings corresponding to the light incident surface 11 and the light exit surface 12 of the prism 1. For example, the housing 5 has a light incident port 51 and a light exit port 52, which are respectively opposite to the light incident surface 11 and the light exit surface 12 of the prism. The light incident port 51 and the light exit port 52 can be respectively arranged on adjacent side walls of the housing 5, and the two can be connected or not connected. In order to improve the installation efficiency of the housing 5 and other components, positioning posts 4 can also be provided on the base 4. The specific structure of the housing 5 will not be specifically introduced herein.
[0101] Please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7 For Figure 6In the A-A cross-sectional view, in the embodiment of the present application, the prism 1 is an optical element, having at least an incident light surface 11, an exit light surface 12, and a refracting surface 13, capable of achieving the turning of the optical path. The prism 1 can be one, and of course, it can also be two or more. The prism can be a triangular prism, and the cross-section of the triangular prism is a right triangle. Of course, the prism can also be in other structural forms as long as it can meet the requirements of optical path propagation. The triangular prism has a simple structure, is light in weight and occupies a small space, which is conducive to meeting the miniaturization design requirements of the camera module 300. The present application continues to introduce the technical solution taking the prism 1 as a triangular prism as an example. The incident light surface 11, the exit light surface 12, and the refracting surface 13 of the triangular prism are connected end to end. It can be considered that the incident light surface 11 and the exit light surface 13 are adjacent, and the refracting surface 13 is connected to the incident light surface 11 and the exit light surface 12. The first mounting body 2 has a support surface 24 for fixing the prism, and the refracting surface 13 of the prism 1 can be supported on the support surface 24, and the two can be in surface contact. Please refer to Figure 8 for understanding. Both end faces 14 of the prism 1 can be adhesively fixed to the first mounting body 2 to improve the fixing reliability of the prism. Exemplarily, glue grooves 3C can also be provided on both side faces 25 of the first mounting body 2, and liquid glue can be injected from the glue grooves 3C between the side face 25 of the first mounting body 2 and the prism 1. The colloid can be liquid glue, and of course, it can also be structural glue.
[0102] For understanding, the incident light surface 11 of the prism 1 corresponds to the light-transmitting area of the electronic device 1000. For example, the incident light surface 11 of the prism 1 corresponds to the light-transmitting hole 201 of the rear cover 200 of the electronic device 1000. The exit light surface 12 of the prism 1 corresponds to the incident light side of the lens assembly 320. In this way, the light outside the electronic device 1000 irradiates the incident light surface 11 of the prism along the S direction. After being reflected inside the prism 1, it exits from the exit light surface 12 of the prism 1 along the S1 direction to enter the incident light hole of the lens assembly 320. Taking the prism 1 as a right triangular prism as an example, the S1 direction and the S direction are perpendicular to each other. Figure 4 For understanding, the incident light surface 11 of the prism 1 corresponds to the light-transmitting area of the electronic device 1000. For example, the incident light surface 11 of the prism 1 corresponds to the light-transmitting hole 201 of the rear cover 200 of the electronic device 1000. The exit light surface 12 of the prism 1 corresponds to the incident light side of the lens assembly 320. In this way, the light outside the electronic device 1000 irradiates the incident light surface 11 of the prism along the S direction. After being reflected inside the prism 1, it exits from the exit light surface 12 of the prism 1 along the S1 direction to enter the incident light hole of the lens assembly 320. Taking the prism 1 as a right triangular prism as an example, the S1 direction and the S direction are perpendicular to each other.
[0103] Please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , in the embodiment of the present application, the first mounting body 2 is rotatably mounted to the second mounting body 3 through the first rotating shaft 9. That is to say, the first mounting body 2 can rotate relative to the second mounting body 3 around the first rotating shaft 9. The axial direction of the first rotating shaft 9 is along the y direction. For the sake of simplicity in describing the technical solution, the axial direction of the first rotating shaft 9 in the embodiment of the present application is defined as the first direction, and the first direction is Figure 8 the y direction marked in Figure 9 For understanding, the second mounting body 3 can be generally a frame structure. Please refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the second mounting body 3 is arranged on the outer periphery of the first mounting body 2, and the first mounting body 2 is located inside the frame of the second mounting body 3.
[0104] In the embodiments of the present application, the first rotating shaft 9 can be fixedly connected to the first mounting body 2, and the first rotating shaft 9 can be fixedly connected to the second mounting body 3 by means of injection molding or interference fit. The first rotating shaft 9 and the second mounting body 3 rotationally support the position of the first mounting body 2 in the initial assembly state of the camera assembly 310, or the position of the first mounting body 2 in the standard state of the camera assembly 310, or the position of the first mounting body 2 when the first electromagnetic coil 71 in the camera assembly 310 is in a power-off state. Exemplarily, mounting holes can be provided on the second mounting body 3, and the first rotating shaft 9 is rotatably mounted in the mounting holes.
[0105] Please refer to Figure 7 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9 for understanding. In the embodiments of the present application, the camera assembly 310 further includes a first driving component 7. The first driving component 7 can drive the first mounting body 2 to rotate relative to the second mounting body 3 around the first direction (y-axis). At the same time, the prism 1 rotates around the first direction with the first mounting body 2, where Figure 10 the dotted double arrow in the figure indicates the rotation direction around the y-axis. That is to say, the first driving component 7 can drive the first mounting body 2 to rotate in the first plane, and the first plane is a plane perpendicular to the first direction (y-axis). In this way, the light incident surface 11 and the light exiting surface 12 of the prism deflect around the y-axis, and the positions and angles of the light incident surface 11 and the light exiting surface 12 of the prism are adjusted along the deflection direction.
[0106] Please refer to Figure 10 . In the embodiments of the present application, the first driving component 7 can be a coil-magnet assembly. The first driving component 7 includes a first electromagnetic coil 71, a first magnet assembly 72, and a first chip 73. The first mounting body 2 is a rotating rod in the first direction, and closed-loop control is achieved through the first chip 73. The number of magnets in the first magnet assembly 72 can be one, or more than two. Figure 8 The figure shows that a first magnet assembly 72 includes two magnets, which are a first magnet 721 and a second magnet 722 respectively. The magnetic poles of the first magnet 721 and the second magnet 722 on the side facing the first electromagnetic coil 71 are different, that is, one is an N pole and the other is an S pole.
[0107] Please refer to Figure 7 、 Figure 10 and Figure 11 . The first magnet assembly 72 is fixed to the side wall of the first mounting body 2 facing away from the light exiting surface 12. In one example, each magnet in the first magnet assembly 72 can be fixedly attached to the first mounting body 2 by bonding. When installing, a colloid can be coated on the surface of the first magnet assembly 72 and the wall of the mounting groove of the first mounting body 2. In order to improve the fixing reliability of the first magnet assembly, a glue groove 3C can also be provided on the first mounting body 2, and the liquid glue is further injected between the first magnet assembly 72 and the second mounting body 2 through the glue groove 3C.
[0108] Please combine with Figure 12 Understand that the first electromagnetic coil 71 can be fixed on the base 4 and is arranged opposite to the first magnet assembly 72. The electrical connection wire of the first electromagnetic coil 71 is connected to the external circuit board of the camera assembly 310 through the flexible circuit board assembly 6. When the first electromagnetic coil 71 is energized, a magnetic force of attraction or repulsion is generated between the first magnet assembly 72 and the first electromagnetic coil 71, thereby driving the first mounting body 2 to rotate relative to the second mounting body 3 around the first direction.
[0109] In this embodiment, the force for driving the rotation of the first mounting body 2 is provided by the cooperation of the coil and the magnet, the structure is relatively simple, and the magnitude of the current flowing into the coil is controllable, with relatively high adjustment flexibility and relatively high adjustment accuracy.
[0110] In order to minimize the thickness of the camera assembly 310 as much as possible, the first magnet assembly 72 and the first electromagnetic coil 71 are arranged along the third direction ( Figure 10 and Figure 12 the x-axis in Figure 13 ). Please refer to Figure 13 Understand that along the third direction, there is a first opening between the first side wall 3-1 and the second side wall 3-2 of the second mounting body 3 (please refer to
[0111] Understand), and the first magnet assembly 72 and the first electromagnetic coil 71 are located between the first side wall 3-1 and the second side wall 3-2. In this way, the distance between the first magnet assembly 72 and the first electromagnetic coil 71 is relatively close, which is beneficial to reducing the size of the camera assembly 310 along the third direction, and there is no intermediate obstacle between the first electromagnetic coil 71 and the first magnet assembly 72, and the magnetic field intensity generated by the first electromagnetic coil 71 will not be weakened, and a relatively large driving force can be provided with a relatively small coil volume, which is beneficial to the miniaturized design of the camera assembly 310.
[0112] In the embodiment of the present application, the first magnet assembly 72 and the first electromagnetic coil 71 are respectively installed on the opposite surfaces of the first mounting body 2 and the base 4, so as to minimize the distance between the two as much as possible.
[0113] Please combine with Figure 14 and Figure 15It is understood that in the embodiments of the present application, the first surface 2121 of the first mounting body 2 facing away from the light incident surface 11 has a first concave cavity 211, and the connecting wall 3-3 has a first protruding portion 3-32. The first protruding portion 3-32 is at least partially located inside the first concave cavity 211, and the first protruding portion 3-32 can be completely or partially located inside the first concave cavity 211. The side surface of the first protruding portion 3-32 facing the first mounting body 2 can be a plane, and the processing technology is simple. The second rotating shaft 41 is at least partially disposed on the first protruding portion 3-32. In this embodiment, the first concave cavity 211 can provide an avoidance space for the installation of the first protruding portion 3-32, which is beneficial to reducing the size of the camera module 310 in the first direction. Moreover, since the second rotating shaft 41 is disposed on the first protruding portion 3-32, the strength of the position where the second mounting body 3 is connected to the second rotating shaft 41 can be improved.
[0114] Please refer to Figure 7 、 Figure 15 、 Figure 16 、 Figure 17 、 Figure 18 and Figure 19 In the embodiments of the present application, the second mounting body 3 is supported on the base 4 and is rotatably mounted on the base 4 through the second rotating shaft 41 ( Figure 15 and Figure 16 not shown in the figures). The axial direction of the second rotating shaft 41 is parallel to the light exit surface 12. Figure 15 The z direction shown in Figure 15 is defined as the axial direction of the second rotating shaft 41 in the present application. The axial direction of the second rotating shaft 41 is defined as the second direction (
[0115] Please refer to Figure 19 In the embodiments of the present application, the camera module 310 further includes a second driving component 8. The second driving component 8 can drive the second mounting body 3 to rotate around the second direction (z direction). That is to say, the second driving component 8 can drive the whole formed by the second mounting body 3 and the first mounting body 2 to rotate in the second plane. The second plane is a plane perpendicular to the z axis (the second direction). In this way, the light incident surface 11 and the light exit surface 12 of the prism can be deflected around the second direction (z direction), and the positions and angles of the light incident surface 11 and the light exit surface 12 of the prism can be adjusted along the deflection direction.
[0116] Figure 19 It is shown that two second driving components 8 are provided in the camera module 310, so as to maximize the driving force. Specifically, the two second driving components 8 are respectively located on both sides of the second mounting body 3 along the first direction. Specifically, the two second driving components 8 are respectively located on both sides of the first rotating shaft 9, and they can be symmetrically installed. The second driving component 8 can also be a coil-magnet assembly. With reference to Figure 20 understanding, one second driving component 8 can include a second electromagnetic coil 81, a second magnet assembly 82 and a second chip 83. The rotation of the second mounting body 3 around the second direction can be realized by the second chip 83 through closed-loop control. The number of magnets in the second magnet assembly 82 can be one, or more than two. With reference to Figure 13 understanding, in one example, the second magnet assembly 82 includes two third magnets 822 and one fourth magnet 821. The length of the one fourth magnet 821 along the Z direction is equal to the sum of the lengths of the two third magnets 822 along the Z direction. The magnetic poles on the same side of the third magnet 822 and the fourth magnet 821 are opposite. For example, as can be seen from Figure 13 the side of the third magnet 822 facing away from the first side wall 3-1 has an S pole, and the side of the fourth magnet 821 facing away from the first side wall 3-1 has an N pole. In this way, when the second electromagnetic coil 81 is energized, a large driving force can be generated between the second electromagnetic coil 81 and the second magnet assembly 82. Of course, the number of magnets in the second magnet assembly 82 is not limited to the description in this article.
[0117] With reference to Figure 13 and Figure 19 understanding, in one example, the second mounting body 3 includes a first side wall 3-1 and a second side wall 3-2 arranged at intervals along the first direction. The two second driving components 8 are respectively arranged at the positions of the first side wall 3-1 and the second side wall 3-2. As shown in Figure 15 , Figure 16 , Figure 17 and Figure 19 the base 4 includes a first frame side wall 4-1 and a second frame side wall 4-2. The first frame side wall 4-1 is arranged opposite to the first side wall 3-1 of the second mounting body 3, and the second frame side wall 4-2 is arranged opposite to the second side wall 3-2 of the second mounting body 3. The second electromagnetic coils 81 are both arranged on the first frame side wall 4-1 and the second frame side wall 4-2. The structures for mounting the second electromagnetic coils 81 on the two frame side walls can be the same or different. Please refer to Figure 21 and Figure 22It is understood that the present application provides an example in which different mounting structures are provided on the side wall 4-1 of the first frame and the side wall 4-2 of the second frame. An installation groove 4-11 is provided on the side wall 4-1 of the first frame for installing a second electromagnetic coil 81, and a third installation hole 4-22 is provided on the side wall 4-2 of the second frame for installing another second electromagnetic coil 81. Second magnet assemblies 82 are provided on both the first side wall 3-1 and the second side wall 3-2. In this embodiment, the second electromagnetic coil 81 is disposed on the base 4, which is convenient for connection with the flexible circuit board.
[0118] Certainly, in the embodiment of the present application, the second electromagnetic coil 81 and the second magnet assembly 82 may also be disposed on the opposite surfaces of the second mounting body 3 and the base 4, and there is no other structure blocking between the second electromagnetic coil 81 and the second magnet assembly 82 to avoid weakening the acting force between the two.
[0119] As can be seen from the above description, in the implementation of the present application, the first rotating shaft 9 is connected between the first mounting body 2 and the second mounting body 3, and the first driving member 7 drives the first mounting body 2 to rotate around the first rotating shaft 9 to realize the rotation of the prism 1 around the first direction. The second rotating shaft 41 is connected between the second mounting body 3 and the base 4, and the second driving member 8 drives the second mounting body 3 to rotate around the second rotating shaft 41 to realize the rotation of the prism 1 around the second direction. In this way, according to the jitter direction and jitter angle of the electronic device 1000, the first mounting body 2 can be driven to rotate around the first rotating shaft, and / or the second mounting body 3 can be driven to rotate around the second rotating shaft 41 to compensate for the jitter amount of the electronic device 1000. Since the first rotating shaft 9 and the second rotating shaft 41 are separately provided, the rotation adjustments of the prism 1 around the first direction and the second direction do not interfere with each other, improving the adjustment accuracy of the camera module 310 and making the control relatively simple.
[0120] Figures 13 to 17 As shown, in the embodiment of the present application, the second mounting body 3 may further include a connecting wall 3-3. The connecting wall 3-3 is connected between the first side wall 3-1 and the second side wall 3-2 and is located on the side of the first side wall 3-1 and the second side wall 3-2 away from the light incident surface 11 of the prism. The second mounting body 3 is generally a U-shaped structure. The connecting wall 3-3 is connected to the base 4 through the second rotating shaft 41, and the connecting wall 3-3 is movably supported on the base 4. In this embodiment, the structure of the second mounting body 3 is relatively simple, which is beneficial to the lightweight design requirements of the camera module 310.
[0121] Please combine Figure 18 and Figure 19It is understood that in the embodiments of the present application, the second surface 3-33 of the connecting wall 3-3 facing away from the first mounting body 2 has a second cavity 3-31, the base 4 has a second protrusion 45, at least a part of the second protrusion 45 is located in the second cavity 3-31, and the other end of the second rotating shaft 41 is connected to the second protrusion 45. In this embodiment, a second protrusion 45 is provided at the position where the second rotating shaft 41 is provided on the base 4. The thickness of the second protrusion 45 is relatively large, which can improve the strength of the position where the second rotating shaft 41 is provided. Moreover, a second cavity 3-31 is provided on the surface of the second mounting body 3 opposite to the second protrusion 45. The second cavity 3-31 can provide an installation space for the second protrusion 45, taking into account both the reliability of the use strength and the small volume.
[0122] The shapes of the first protrusion 3-32, the second protrusion 45, the first cavity 211 and the second cavity 3-31 can be reasonably set according to the specific structure as long as the above-mentioned use functions can be satisfied.
[0123] Similarly, in order to improve the wear resistance of the second rotating shaft 41, in the embodiments of the present application, the second rotating shaft 41 can be matched with a second bushing 3B with better wear resistance. The materials of the second bushing 3B and the second rotating shaft 41 can both be metal materials, such as copper. Please refer to again Figure 18 , in one example, the first protrusion 3-32 and the second protrusion 45 are provided with coaxial through holes, and a second bushing 3B is fixed inside each through hole. The two ends of the second rotating shaft are respectively installed in the two second bushings 3B. The fixing methods of the second bushing 3B to the second mounting body 3 and the second bushing 3B to the base 4 can be the same as the fixing method of the first bushing 32 to the second mounting body 3 above. The second bushing 3B can be fixed to the first protrusion 3-32 or the second protrusion 45 by gluing or / and welding.
[0124] Please refer to again Figure 18, in a specific example, metal bodies are fixed at both the positions of the first convex part 3-32 and the second convex part 45. The metal bodies can be fixed to the first convex part 3-32 and the second convex part 45 through an injection molding process. In the embodiment of the present application, the metal body fixed to the first convex part 3-32 is defined as the first metal body 33, and the metal body fixed to the second convex part 45 is defined as the second metal body 43. The second bushing 3B on the first convex part 3-32 is fixedly welded to the first metal body 33, and the second bushing 3B on the second convex part 45 is fixedly welded to the second metal body 43. A part of the first metal body 33 is exposed outside the first convex part 3-32, and a welding through hole 3E is provided for fixedly welding with the second bushing 3B in the first convex part 3-32. Similarly, a part of the second metal body 43 can be exposed outside the second convex part 45, and a welding through hole 3E is provided for fixedly welding with the second bushing 3B in the second convex part 45. Among them, the end of the second bushing 3B in the first convex part 3-32 away from the second convex part 45 is welded to the first metal body 33. The end of the second bushing 3B in the second convex part 45 away from the first convex part 3-32 is welded to the second metal body 43.
[0125] Similarly, for the convenience of welding, welding through holes 3E can be provided on both the first metal body 33 and the second metal body 43.
[0126] Please refer to Figure 21 and Figure 22 for understanding. In one example, the base further includes a third frame side wall 4-3 and a fourth frame side wall 4-4 connected between the first frame side wall 4-1 and the second frame side wall 4-2. The third frame side wall 4-3 is disposed opposite to the first magnet assembly 72. The first electromagnetic coil 71 is fixed to the third frame side wall 4-3. A second mounting hole 4-31 can be provided on the third frame side wall 4-3 to reduce the influence on the electromagnetic field generated by the first electromagnetic coil 71. A second rotating shaft 41 is provided on the fourth frame side wall 4-4.
[0127] In the embodiment of the present application, the first mounting body 2 is rotationally supported by the first side wall 3-1 and the second side wall 3-2 of the second mounting body 3 through the first rotating shaft 9. In order to improve the coaxiality of the first rotating shafts on both sides of the first mounting body 2 with the first side wall 3-1 and the second side wall 3-2, the following structural settings are further made for the camera assembly 310 in the embodiment of the present application.
[0128] Please refer to Figure 19 and Figure 23It is understood that in the embodiments of the present application, the first rotating shaft 9 penetrates through the first mounting body 2. As shown in the figure, the first mounting body 2 is provided with a through hole 23. The first rotating shaft includes two end shaft segments 91. The two end shaft segments 91 are located outside the through hole 23, and the two end shaft segments 91 are respectively supported on the first side wall 3-1 and the second side wall 3-2. In this way, the first mounting body 2 is rotationally supported on the first side wall 3-1 and the second side wall 3-2 respectively through the two ends of the same first rotating shaft 9. Only by ensuring the machining accuracy of the first rotating shaft can the coaxiality of the rotation of the first mounting body 2 and the two side walls of the second mounting body 3 be achieved, which is beneficial to improving the quality of the camera assembly 310. Generally, the main body 40 materials of the first mounting body 2, the second mounting body 3, and the base 4 are plastics, so that the weight of the camera assembly 310 is relatively light. In order to improve the wear resistance between the first rotating shaft and the second mounting body 3, the following settings are also made in the present application.
[0129] Please refer to again Figure 24 , in the embodiments of the present application, the camera assembly 310 further includes two first shaft sleeves 32. The two first shaft sleeves 32 are respectively fixed on the first side wall 3-1 and the second side wall 3-2. The surface of the first shaft sleeve 32 facing the first rotating shaft is provided with a first mounting hole 321, and the end shaft segment 91 is rotatably mounted in the first mounting hole 321. In the embodiments of the present application, the inner hole of the first shaft sleeve 32 rotates in cooperation with the first rotating shaft 9. In this way, on the one hand, the machining difficulty of the first side wall 3-1 and the second side wall 3-2 can be reduced, and on the other hand, the first shaft sleeve 32 can adopt a material different from that of the second mounting body 3. For example, the first shaft sleeve 32 uses a metal material with higher strength to improve the wear resistance between the first shaft sleeve 32 and the first rotating shaft.
[0130] Combined with Figure 15 , Figure 20 , Figure 23 and Figure 24 It is understood that in the embodiments of the present application, the first mounting hole 321 on the first shaft sleeve 32 is a through hole. A baffle 34 is further fixed on one side wall of each first shaft sleeve 32 facing away from the first rotating shaft 9 to block the port of the first mounting hole 321 far from the first rotating shaft 9. The first rotating shaft 9 is located between the two baffles 34. The baffle 34 can limit the displacement of the first rotating shaft in the first direction to prevent the first rotating shaft 9 from disengaging from the first mounting hole 321. In this embodiment, the first mounting hole 321 on the first shaft sleeve 32 is a through hole, which is beneficial to improving the concentricity of the first mounting holes 321 on the two first shaft sleeves 32 on the first side wall 3-1 and the second side wall 3-2, and the machining process is relatively simple.
[0131] In the embodiments of the present application, the first bushing 32 can be made of wear-resistant material with relatively low hardness. When the electronic device 1000 accidentally drops, the first rotating shaft 9 will impact the baffle 34. It is preferably that the baffle 34 has a relatively high hardness so as to provide higher impact resistance, thereby improving the impact resistance of the camera module 310. In the embodiments of the present application, the hardness of the material of the baffle 34 is greater than that of the material of the first bushing 32. For example, the material of the first bushing 32 can be copper, and the material of the baffle 34 can be stainless steel. Of course, the baffle 34 can also be made of other metal materials with a hardness greater than that of copper.
[0132] Wherein, the first bushing 32 can also be provided with a recess 322, and the baffle 34 is installed in the recess 322 to reduce the occupation of space. The baffle 34 can also be provided with a welding through hole 3E, and the baffle 34 is fixedly welded to the first bushing 32.
[0133] Please refer to again Figure 23 , in the embodiments of the present application, the first side wall 3-1 and the second side wall 3-2 can be provided with receiving grooves 36, and the first bushing 32 is installed inside the receiving grooves 36. In this way, the thickness of the first side wall 3-1 or the second side wall 3-2 can be minimized, which is beneficial to reducing the overall size of the camera module 310. The first bushing 32 can be fixed to the first side wall 3-1 or the second side wall 3-2 by gluing. Of course, in order to improve the fixing reliability between the first bushing 32 and the first side wall 3-1 or the second side wall 3-2, the first bushing 32 and the first side wall 3-1 or the second side wall 3-2 can be further welded and fixed. For example, a metal body 33 is injection-molded inside the first side wall 3-1 or the second side wall 3-2, and the first bushing 32 or / and the baffle 34 are welded and fixed to the first metal body 33. Wherein, in order to facilitate welding, the first metal body 33 is provided with a welding through hole 3E. And, the first metal body 33 is located between the first bushing 32 and the second magnet assembly 82, so that the first metal body 33 can well isolate the first bushing 32 and the second magnet assembly 82, avoiding collision between the first bushing 32 and the second magnet assembly 82 and damaging the second magnet assembly 82.
[0134] Please combine with Figure 4 , Figure 18 , Figure 21 , Figure 22 , Figure 25 and Figure 26It is understood that in order to minimize the frictional force of the relative movement between the connecting wall 3-3 and the base 4, in the embodiments of the present application, the connecting wall 3-3 and the base 4 can be in rolling contact through the ball 44. Specifically, at least one ball 44 is provided between the connecting wall 3-3 and the base 4. The connecting wall 3-3 is supported on the base 4 through the ball 44. The ball 44 can be located inside the second concave cavity 3-31, and the ball 44 is located in the circumferential direction of the second protrusion 45. The cavity wall of the first concave cavity 211 is supported on the base 4. The ball 44 is located between the circumferential wall of the second concave cavity 3-31 and the circumferential wall of the second protrusion 45. This example can minimize the height occupied by the ball 44 in the second direction, which is beneficial to the miniaturized design of the camera module 310. In addition, by reasonably setting the shapes of the circumferential wall of the first concave cavity 211 and the circumferential wall of the second protrusion 45 at the installation position of the ball 44, they can be adapted to the ball 44. In this way, not only can the ball 44 be installed and positioned, but also the rotational stability of the second mounting body 3 is relatively high. For example, a partial position of the circumferential wall of the second protrusion 45 has an arc surface 451 to cooperate with the ball 44.
[0135] The number of balls 44 can be one or more than two. Figure 25 An example in which there are three balls 44 is shown. The three balls 44 are arranged in a triangle, and the support stability is relatively high.
[0136] In a specific example, a groove 47 can also be provided on the base 4. The ball 44 is located inside the groove 47. The groove 47 defines the movement range of the ball 44 and can further improve the installation stability of the ball 44.
[0137] As described above, a first metal body 33 is fixed inside the connecting wall 3-3, and a second metal body 43 is fixed inside the base 4. In order to improve the support strength between the connecting wall 3-3 and the ball 44, and between the base 4 and the ball 44, the ball 44 can be in rolling contact with the first metal body 33 and the second metal body 43. Figure 18 It is understood. That is to say, the ball 44 is located between the metal body of the connecting wall 3-3 and the metal body of the base 4.
[0138] In order to improve the installation stability of the second mounting body 3 in the initial installation position and be able to quickly return to the initial installation position after the second electromagnetic coil 81 is powered off, the camera module 310 can further include a holding mechanism, which is partially connected to the second mounting body 3 and partially connected to the base 4, and is used to provide a restoring force for the second mounting body 3 to return to the initial position. The so-called initial position of the second mounting body 3 refers to the position of the second mounting body 3 in the initial assembled state of the camera module 310. The following gives several implementation manners in which the holding mechanism includes a spring piece, a magnetic reset unit 35 and an elastic body.
[0139] Please refer to Figure 15 、 Figure 19 、Figure 25 and Figure 26 Understand that the holding mechanism may further include at least one magnetic reset unit 35. The magnetic reset unit 35 includes a first element 351 and a second element 352. The first element 351 is disposed on the second mounting body 3, and the second element 352 is disposed on the base 4. The first element 351 and the second element 352 are configured to provide a structure for the first mounting body 2 to maintain or / and return to the initial position with a restoring force. One of the first element 351 and the second element 352 may be a magnet, and the other may be a metal (such as iron) that can be attracted by the magnet. Of course, both the first element 351 and the second element 352 may also be magnets.
[0140] The first element 351 and the second element 352 attract each other, which can improve the mounting stability of the second mounting body 3 to a certain extent. When the second electromagnetic coil 81 is energized, the acting force generated by the second electromagnetic coil 81 and the second magnet assembly 82 can overcome the attraction between the magnetic reset units 35 and drive the second mounting body 3 to rotate relative to the base 4. When the second electromagnetic coil 81 is de-energized, the attraction between the magnetic reset units 35 can provide a restoring force for the second mounting body 3 to return to the initial position to a certain extent.
[0141] Please refer to Figure 19 、 Figure 25 and Figure 26 Understand that in the embodiment of the present application, a first elastic body 3D may be installed in a partial area of the gap between the second mounting body 3 and the base 4. The first elastic body 3D may be an elastic glue, or a foam or other components that are prone to elastic deformation. In this way, the first elastic body 3D can not only improve the mounting stability of the second mounting body 3 in the base 4, but also does not affect the rotation of the second mounting body 3 around the second direction. Similarly, a first elastic body 3D may also be installed in a partial area of the gap between the first mounting body 2 and the second mounting body 3.
[0142] Please refer to Figure 27 and Figure 28 In the embodiment of the present application, the holding mechanism may further include a second elastic piece 42. The second elastic piece 42 is connected to both the second mounting body 3 and the base 4 at the same time. The installation method of the second elastic piece 42 is the same as that of the first elastic piece 22, and it can be installed and fixed through the cooperation of the convex post 3A and the through hole. The second elastic piece 42 can provide a restoring force for the second mounting body 3 to return to the initial mounting position.
[0143] In addition, by reasonably setting the shape of the second elastic piece 42, the second elastic piece 42 can also provide a abutting force for the second mounting body 3 to abut against the base 4 along the second direction, so that the second mounting body 3 can be stably supported on the base 4.
[0144] Please refer to Figure 27 and Figure 30, in the embodiments of the present application, the camera assembly 310 further includes a first elastic sheet 22. The first elastic sheet 22 connects the first mounting body 2 and the second mounting body 3, and the first elastic sheet 22 is configured to have a shape that can provide a restoring force for the first mounting body 2 to return to the initial mounting position. The so-called initial mounting position of the first mounting body 2 refers to the position of the first mounting body 2 in the initial assembled state of the camera assembly 310, or the position of the first mounting body 2 in the standard state of the camera assembly 310, or the position of the first mounting body 2 when the first electromagnetic coil 71 in the camera assembly 310 is in a powered-off state. Similarly, in the embodiments of the present application, the initial position of the second mounting body 3 also refers to the position of the second mounting body 33 in the initial assembled state of the camera assembly 310, or the position of the second mounting body 33 in the standard state of the camera assembly 310, or the position of the second mounting body 3 when the second electromagnetic coil 81 in the camera assembly 310 is in a powered-off state. The first elastic sheet 22 can be a metal sheet with one or more bending structures. Under the action of an external force, the metal sheet will deform and generate a restoring force. When the first mounting body 2 is located at the initial mounting position, the first elastic sheet 22 can be in its original state. At this time, the first elastic sheet 22 is not affected by an external force and has no deformation. When the first electromagnetic coil 71 is powered on, the first mounting body 2 rotates around the first rotation axis, and at the same time drives the first elastic sheet 22 to move relative to the second mounting body 3. The first elastic sheet 22 deforms, and thus a restoring force is generated. After the first electromagnetic coil 71 is powered off, under the action of the restoring force of the first elastic sheet 22, the first mounting body 2 can quickly return to the initial mounting position. In this embodiment, the elastic sheet occupies a relatively small space.
[0145] As Figure 27 shown, on the same side of the first mounting body 2 and the second mounting body 3 ( Figure 27 in which it is shown that the two are on the side close to the light incident surface 11 of the prism), convex columns 3A are provided. Through holes are provided on the first elastic sheet 22, and the through holes on the first elastic sheet 22 are fitted with the convex columns 3A for installation to realize the fixation of the first elastic sheet 22 and the first mounting body 2, as well as the fixation of the first elastic sheet 22 and the second mounting body 3. This fixing method is relatively simple.
[0146] Please combine Figure 28 to understand that in the embodiments of the present application, the camera assembly 310 may also be provided with at least one ferromagnetic body 10. Figure 28 As shown in Figure 28 , the ferromagnetic body 10 is installed on the support plate 62, and the support plate 62 is installed on the base 4 (
[0147] The first magnet assembly 72 and the ferromagnetic body 10 attract each other, which can improve the installation stability of the first mounting body 2 to a certain extent. When the first electromagnetic coil 71 is energized, the acting force generated by the first electromagnetic coil 71 and the first magnet assembly 72 can overcome the attraction between the first magnet assembly 72 and the ferromagnetic body 10, driving the first mounting body 2 to rotate relative to the second mounting body 3. After the first electromagnetic coil 71 is powered off, the attraction between the first magnet assembly 72 and the ferromagnetic body 10 can provide a restoring force for the first mounting body 2 to return to the initial installation position to a certain extent.
[0148] In the embodiment of the present application, by using the first magnet assembly 72 in the first driving member 7, only the ferromagnetic body 10 needs to be installed on the base 4, which occupies a small space and is convenient to install.
[0149] Please refer to Figure 29 , Figure 29 , which shows a distribution schematic diagram of the main parts such as the first driving member 7, the second driving member 8, the first rotating shaft 9, the second rotating shaft 41, the ferromagnetic body 10, and the magnetic reset unit 35.
[0150] When the electronic device 1000 accidentally drops, under the action of vibration, the second mounting body 3 will inevitably rotate relative to the base 4. If the rotation angle of the second mounting body 3 is too large, it will collide with the housing 5. In order to reduce the collision damage between the second mounting body 3 and the housing 5, the following settings are also made in the present application.
[0151] Please refer to Figure 16 and Figure 27 . In the embodiment of the present application, a second elastic body 31 is also installed at the corner of the second mounting body 3 to elastically abut against the inner cavity wall of the housing 5, greatly reducing the probability of direct collision damage between the second mounting body 3 and the housing 5.
[0152] Please refer to Figure 12 , Figure 22 , Figure 28 and Figure 31It is understood that in the embodiments of the present application, the camera assembly 310 further includes a flexible circuit board assembly 6. The flexible circuit board assembly 6 includes a flexible circuit board 61 and a support plate 62. At least a part of the flexible circuit board 61 is positioned on the outer wall side of the base 4 facing away from the second mounting body 3 through the support plate 62. The first driving component 7 and the second driving component 8 are electrically connected to an external circuit through the flexible circuit board. Taking the first driving component 7 including a first electromagnetic coil 71 and the second driving component 8 including a second electromagnetic coil 81 as an example, the flexible circuit board 61 has a first electrical connection end electrically connected to the first electromagnetic coil 71, and the flexible circuit board 61 has a second electrical connection end electrically connected to the second electromagnetic coil 81. The number and specific positions of the first electrical connection end and the second electrical connection end are determined according to the number and installation positions of the corresponding electromagnetic coils. The external connection end 610 of the flexible circuit board 61 electrically connected to the external circuit is located outside the housing 5.
[0153] In the embodiments of the present application, the support plate 62 can be in a split form. For example, the support plate 62 is provided on one or several sides of the base 4 facing away from the second mounting body 3 to support and position the flexible circuit board. The support plate 62 plays a role in protecting the flexible circuit board to a certain extent. And the support plate 62 located on one side of the fourth frame side wall 4-4 of the base 4 can directly close the opening on this side of the housing 5 and serve as a part of the housing 5 to minimize the weight of the camera assembly 310.
[0154] Please refer to again Figure 22 , in order to protect the flexible circuit board 61 as much as possible, an avoidance groove 4-21 can be opened on the outer wall of the base 4. Please combine Figure 9 to understand that the flexible circuit board 61 does not protrude from the outer wall surface of the base 4 as much as possible. Avoidance grooves can also be opened on other walls, which are not shown one by one herein.
