Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mid-mounted motors, in particular to a VCM mid-mounted motor. Background Art
[0002] VCM refers to the voice coil motor in electronics, which is a type of motor. The VCM mid-mounted motor is also called a voice coil motor. The principle of a voice coil motor is to control the position of the VCM motor by changing the size of the VCM coil current in a fixed magnetic field, thereby changing the distance between the lenses to achieve the focusing function. The VCM motor is mainly composed of a shell, a base, a magnet, upper and lower springs and a carrier. The shell and the base are fixed parts. The magnet is fixed around the shell. The coil is wrapped around the outer ring of the carrier and is integrated with the carrier. The carrier is located between the upper and lower springs and suspended in the magnetic field space in the inner cavity formed by the base and the shell. When the coil is energized, under the action of the Ampere force, the carrier can move up and down, driving the lens to achieve the focusing function. Voice coil motors are mainly used for small strokes, high speeds, and high acceleration movements, and are suitable for use in narrow spaces.
[0003] After searching, according to a VCM motor disclosed in application number CN202121604330.3, the article mentions "a lower spring piece used for elastic movement of the lens, the lower spring piece is a split structure, the lower spring piece includes four first lower spring pieces and the same number of second lower spring pieces, the second lower spring pieces are arranged on the inner side of the first lower spring pieces, the second lower spring pieces are in a "H" shape, the end of the second lower spring piece is fixedly connected to the inner side of the first upper spring piece, the head end of the second lower spring piece is fixedly connected to the third lower spring piece, the first lower spring piece, the second lower spring piece and the third lower spring piece are fixedly connected to the inner side of the first upper spring piece, and the first lower spring piece, the second lower spring piece and the third lower spring piece are fixedly connected to the inner side of the first upper spring piece.

The VCM motor in the above application adopts the common Hall element to form a closed-loop control system when in use. The Hall element installed inside the voice coil motor to form a closed-loop control system has a high manufacturing cost.
