[0068] exist Figure 1 and Figure 2In the illustrated embodiment, the bottom plate 1 is in the shape of a rectangular plate, and the frame 5 is also in the shape of a rectangular frame and connected to the top edge of the bottom plate 1. The frame 5 is formed by assembling two annular frames, which are respectively defined as a first annular frame 51 and a second annular frame 52. The first annular frame 51 and the second annular frame 52 are both in the shape of rectangular annular frames, and the second annular frame 52 is connected to the top edge of the bottom plate 1, and the first annular frame 51 is superimposed on the top of the second annular frame 52.

[0069] The movable member 2 is located in the second annular frame 52 and is rollingly connected to the bottom plate 1 via a plurality of balls 25. The radial outer side of the movable plate 21 is spaced from the inner wall of the second annular frame 52. The spacing at least allows the movable plate 21 to move unhindered in the second annular frame 52. Specifically, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the movable member 2 includes a support plate 22 and a movable plate 21. Both the movable plate 21 and the support plate 22 are rectangular plates and the support plate 22 is superimposed on the top surface of the movable plate 21. The support plate 22 and the movable plate 21 are integrally formed. The centers of the movable plate 21 and the support plate 22 overlap with the vertical axis, and the radial dimension of the movable plate 21 is greater than the radial dimension of the support plate 22, that is, the length of the four sides of the movable plate 21 is greater than the length of the four sides of the support plate 22, and the support plate 22 and the movable plate 21 form a step structure.

[0070] The bottom surface of the movable plate 21 is provided with four first rolling grooves 24, and the four first rolling grooves 24 are respectively close to the four corners of the movable plate 21. The top surface of the bottom plate 1 is provided with four second rolling grooves 11, and the four second rolling grooves 11 are respectively aligned with the four first rolling grooves 24 in the vertical direction. The four balls 25 are respectively located between the four first rolling grooves 24 and the four second rolling grooves 11, so that the movable plate 21 can move relative to the bottom plate 1 in the first direction or the second direction, the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other, and the first direction and the second direction are respectively perpendicular to the vertical axis. In addition, the first direction and the second direction are also parallel to the adjacent two sides of the frame 5, the adjacent two sides of the movable member 2, or the adjacent two sides of the bottom plate 1.

[0071] A mounting groove 23 is also provided at the center of the bottom surface of the movable plate 21. One of the two piezoelectric mechanisms is located in the mounting groove 23, and the piezoelectric mechanism is defined as the first piezoelectric mechanism 81. Specifically, most of the first piezoelectric mechanism 81 is located in the mounting groove 23 and includes an elastic sheet 83, a piezoelectric block 84 and a friction rod 85. Both ends of the elastic sheet 83 are connected to the bottom plate 1. The piezoelectric block 84 is located in the mounting groove 23 and the bottom end is connected to the top surface of the elastic sheet 83. The friction rod 85 extends in the vertical direction and the bottom end of the friction rod 85 is connected to the top surface of the piezoelectric block 84, and the top end abuts against the top wall of the mounting groove 23. After the first piezoelectric mechanism 81 is energized, the elastic sheet 83 can generate high-frequency deformation, and then drive the movable plate 21 to move in the first direction or the second direction through the friction rod 85. By changing the current of the first piezoelectric mechanism 81, the movement direction of the movable plate 21 driven by the friction rod 85 can be changed.

[0072] The mounting groove 23 is located at the center of the movable plate 21 , and the axis of the friction rod 85 overlaps with the vertical axis, that is, the friction rod 85 abuts against the center of the movable plate 21 , and can apply force evenly to the movable plate 21 , thereby making the friction rod 85 drive the movable plate 21 to move more stably.

[0073] Optionally, a limit ring 53 is provided on the inner wall of the first annular frame 51, which extends along the circumference of the first annular frame 51 and is in the shape of a rectangular plate. The limit ring 53 extends around the outer side of the support plate 22 and is located above the movable plate 21 and is spaced apart from the movable plate 21. The radial outer side of the limit ring 53 is spaced apart from the support plate 22, and the spacing does not affect the movement of the support plate 22 along the first direction or the second direction.

[0074] The top surface of the limiting ring 53 is preferably lower than the top surface of the first annular frame 51, so that enough space can be left to accommodate the circuit board, which will be described in detail below.

[0075] The first rolling groove 24 passes through the top surface of the movable plate 21 in the vertical direction, the bottom of the ball 25 is located in the second rolling groove 11, and a portion of the top passes through the first rolling groove 24 and abuts against the bottom surface of the limit ring 53. It should be understood that the first rolling groove 24 is a curved surface structure, and part of the top of the first rolling groove 24 passes through the movable plate 21, that is, the top opening of the first rolling groove 24 is very small, only the top of the ball 25 is allowed to expose the top surface of the movable plate 21, and the ball 25 will not roll from the first rolling groove 24 to the outside of the movable plate 21.

[0076] As a preferred solution, the top surface of the support plate 22 is flush with the top surface of the second annular frame 52. The top surface of the support plate 22 is used to support the image sensor 3. The image sensor 3 is electrically connected to one of the circuit boards, which is defined as the first circuit board 41. A portion of the first circuit board 41 is connected to the image sensor 3, and the other portion is connected to the second annular frame 52. A portion of the first circuit board 41 is elastic and can drive the image sensor 3 to reset.

The shape of the first portion 411 is basically consistent with the cross-sectional shape of the second annular frame 52 along the horizontal aspect, that is, the width of the first portion 411 is consistent with the thickness of the second annular frame 52. It should be understood that the first portion 411 only needs to be fixedly connected to the first annular frame 51 or the second annular frame 52 without affecting its function, and the specific shape of the first portion 411 is not limited.

[0078] The second part is elastic and is located in the ring of the first part 411 , and is used to connect the first part 411 and the image sensor 3 , and can drive the image sensor 3 to reset.

[0079] In addition, Figure 2-5 In the illustrated embodiment, the first portion 411 is in a rectangular ring shape, and the image sensor 3 is in a rectangular block shape and is located at the center of the first portion 411 , that is, the radial outer side of the image sensor 3 is at the same distance from the first portion 411 .

[0080] The second part includes four connecting members 412 of the same shape, the four connecting members 412 are evenly spaced around the above-mentioned vertical axis and each connecting member 412 includes a first end 414, a second end 415 and a bending portion 413, the first ends 414 of the four connecting members 412 are respectively connected to the inner wall of the first part 411, and the second ends 415 are respectively connected to the image sensor 3, and the second ends 415 are closer to the vertical axis than the first ends 414.

[0081] The two ends of the bending portion 413 are respectively connected to the corresponding first end 414 and second end 415. The bending portion 413 is in a bending state extending around the vertical axis, so that the bending portion 413 has elasticity, and the bending portion 413 is located above the limiting ring and can move above the limiting ring.

[0082] When the first piezoelectric mechanism 81 drives the movable part 2 to move along the first direction or the second direction, since the image sensor 3 is fixedly connected to the movable part 2, and the first ends 414 of the four connecting parts 412 are connected to the first part 411, and the first part 411 is fixed on the second annular frame 52, the movable part 2 will cause the bending part 413 to deform when it moves, and the bending part 413 will drive the movable part 2 to reset.

[0083] exist Figure 2-5 In the illustrated embodiment, the first end 414 of each connecting member 412 is connected to one side of the first portion 411, and the second end 415 is connected to one side of the image sensor 3, and the side of the image sensor 3 is adjacent to one side of the first portion 411, that is, the first end 414 and the second end 415 of each connecting member 412 are located at two adjacent sides of the first portion 411, and the first end 414 is connected to one of the sides, and the second end 415 is connected to the image sensor 3.

For example, one of the first ends 414 is connected to the first side of the first portion 411, and one of the second ends 415 is connected to the first side of the image sensor 3. The first end 414 and the second end 415 are arranged at intervals and are located at the center of the first side of the first portion 411, and are also located at the center of the first side of the image sensor 3. Since the four connecting members 412 are evenly spaced, the other three first ends 414 and the corresponding second ends 415 are also located at the center of the side of the corresponding first portion 411 and the center of one side of the image sensor 3, and are not described in detail.

[0084] In addition, the bending portion 413 is in an L-shaped bending state and includes a first section 416 and a second section 417 connected to each other. The extension directions of the first section 416 and the second section 417 are respectively parallel to the two side edges adjacent to the first portion 411, and the four bending portions 413 are respectively located at the four corners of the first portion 411, that is, the corners of the four bending portions 413 are respectively located at the four corners of the first portion 411.

[0085] One end of the first section 416 of each bending portion 413 is connected to the first end 414, and the other end is connected to the second section 417, and the second section 417 is connected to the second end 415. The length of the first section 416 of the bending portion 413 is the same as the length of the second section 417, the width of the first section 416 is also the same as the width of the second section 417, the width of the first end 414 and the width of the second end 415 are also the same as the width of the first section 416 and the second section 417, and the deformation of the bending portion 413 will not cause tearing of a weak area. And the four connecting members 412 apply force evenly, which can ensure the stable resetting of the image sensor 3.

[0086] The first part 411 and the second part are both sheet-like structures and are preferably integrally formed, which can increase the strength and deformation stability of the second part.

[0087] It should be understood that in other embodiments, the bottom plate 1 may also be a circular plate, and the first annular frame 51 and the second annular frame 52 may also be circular frames, the first portion 411 of the first circuit board 41 is annular and is located between the first annular frame 51 and the second annular frame 52, and the second portion includes a plurality of connectors 412, the number of which may be three, four or more, and the plurality of connectors 412 are evenly spaced around the vertical axis, the first ends 414 of the plurality of connectors 412 are connected to the radial inner side of the first portion 411, and the second ends 415 are connected to the image sensor 3. In addition, the bending portion 413 of the second portion is in an arc-shaped bending state extending around the vertical axis, and the two ends of the bending portion 413 are respectively connected to the first end 414 and the second end 415.

[0088] In addition, the first part 411 may also be annular, and the image sensor 3 is a cylindrical block and is located at the center of the first part 411, and the radial outer side of the image sensor 3 is at the same distance from the first part 411. The multiple connecting members 412 of the second part are evenly spaced around the outer circumference of the image sensor 3 and are connected to the first part 411 and the image sensor 3 respectively.

[0089] That is to say, the first part 411 can also be set to other centrally symmetrical structures, and the image sensor 3 can also be set to other structures that match the first part 411. The multiple connecting parts 412 need to be evenly spaced, that is, to ensure that the multiple connecting parts 412 apply uniform force to the image sensor 3, and there is no need to strictly limit the specific shapes of the first part 411 and the image sensor 3.

[0090] In addition, the first circuit board 41 further includes a connection end extending to the outside. The connection end can pass through the housing 7 and extend to the outside of the housing 7 for connection with an external power source.

[0091] The first annular frame 51 is formed by four side plates connected end to end, wherein two pairs of side plates are located on both sides along the first direction, and the other two pairs of side plates are located on both sides along the second direction. A stopper 54 is also provided on the radial inner side of the first annular frame 51, and the stopper 54 extends around the circumference of the first annular frame 51 and is located above the first circuit board 41.

A center hole 541 is provided at the center of the limiting member 54. The center hole 541 is aligned with the lens to facilitate the light projected onto the lens to enter the image sensor 3.

[0092] The carrier 6 is located in the first annular frame 51 and on the top surface of the limiting member 54 . The limiting member 54 can limit the downward movement of the carrier 6 , that is, the carrier 6 can only move in the first annular frame 51 along the vertical direction.

[0093] Another piezoelectric mechanism is defined as a second piezoelectric mechanism 82 . The second piezoelectric mechanism 82 is connected to the first annular frame 51 and is used to drive the carrier 6 to move in a vertical direction, that is, along the optical axis direction, so as to drive the lens to focus.

[0094] Specifically, the second piezoelectric mechanism 82 operates on the same principle as the first piezoelectric mechanism 81, and also includes an elastic sheet 83, a piezoelectric block 84 and a friction rod 85. A side plate of the first annular frame 51 along the first direction is provided with a receiving groove 57, and the receiving groove 57 runs through the side plate. The elastic sheet 83 is installed in the receiving groove 57 and close to the outer side of the side plate. The piezoelectric block 84 is located in the receiving groove 57 and connected to the inner side of the elastic sheet 83. One end of the friction rod 85 is connected to the piezoelectric block 84, and the other end extends beyond the inner side of the side plate and abuts against the carrier 6. After the second piezoelectric mechanism 82 is energized, the elastic sheet 83 will generate high-frequency vibration, which will then drive the piezoelectric block 84 and the friction rod 85 to vibrate, thereby driving the carrier 6 to move in the vertical direction.

[0095] As a preferred solution, the accommodating groove 57 is located at the center of the side plate, that is, the second piezoelectric mechanism 82 is located at the center of the side plate along the second direction, so that the friction rod 85 is against the center of the side of the carrier 6 opposite to the side plate, which facilitates driving the carrier 6 to move more stably in the vertical direction.

[0096] Another side plate of the first annular frame 51 along the first direction is provided with two first guide grooves, and the side plate is arranged opposite to the side plate provided with the receiving groove 57, and the extension direction of the first guide groove is parallel to the vertical axis. In addition, the two first guide grooves are located near the two ends of the side plate along the second direction, and the projection of the second piezoelectric mechanism 82 along the first direction is located at the projection center of the two first guide grooves along the first direction.

[0097] Two second guide grooves 61 are provided on the radial outer side of the carrier 6 . The extension directions of the two second guide grooves 61 are respectively parallel to the vertical axis and aligned with the two first guide grooves along the first direction.

[0098] The two guide posts 56 extend in the vertical direction respectively and each guide post 56 is located between the first guide groove and the second guide groove 61 respectively.

[0099] The friction rod 85 of the second piezoelectric mechanism 82 moves in the vertical direction against the carrier 6, and the second guide groove 61 of the carrier 6 and the guide column 56 are in rolling contact, that is, the carrier 6 and the guide column 56 form rolling friction, which can reduce the static friction between the carrier 6 and the inner wall of the first annular frame 51, reduce the running load of the carrier 6, and ensure the stable movement of the carrier 6.

[0100] Among the multiple circuit boards, one of the circuit boards is L-shaped, and the circuit board is defined as the second circuit board 42. A portion of the second circuit board 42 is located on the top surface of the bottom plate 1 and one end is connected to the first piezoelectric mechanism 81, and the other end is bent in an L-shape and extends in the vertical direction to the first circuit board 41 and is connected to the first circuit board 41. An escape groove 55 is provided on the radial outer side of the second annular frame 52, and the escape groove 55 extends in the vertical direction and extends from the bottom end to the top end of the second annular frame 52. The other end of the second circuit board 42 is bent in an L-shape and is located in the escape groove 55.

[0101] Among the multiple circuit boards, another circuit board is used to be electrically connected to the second piezoelectric mechanism 82. The circuit board is the third circuit board 43. The third circuit board 43 is attached to the outer side of the first annular frame 51 and is located on the outer side of the elastic sheet 83 that accommodates the second piezoelectric mechanism 82. It is electrically connected to the second piezoelectric mechanism 82, and the bottom end of the third circuit board 43 is also connected to the first circuit board 41.

[0102] The lens driving mechanism 100 of the present invention utilizes two piezoelectric mechanisms to replace magnets and coils, which is not only simple in structure but also lighter in weight than the prior art and can ensure the stability of anti-shake and focusing.
