Rather, the examples described herein have been provided only to illustrate some of the many possible ways of implementing the methods, devices and / or systems described herein that will be apparent after understanding the disclosure of the present application.
[0026] Throughout the specification, when an element (such as a layer, a region, or a substrate) is described as being “on”, “connected to”, “bound to”, “over”, or “covering” another element, it may be directly “on”, “connected to”, “bound to”, “over”, or “covering” another element, or one or more other elements may be present between them. In contrast, when an element is described as being “directly on”, “directly connected to”, “directly bound to”, “directly over”, or “directly covering” another element, there may be no other elements present between them.
[0027] As used herein, the term "and / or" includes any one of the associated listed items and any combination of any two or more items.
[0028] Although terms such as "first," "second," and "third" may be used herein to describe various members, components, regions, layers, or portions, these members, components, regions, layers, or portions are not limited by these terms. Rather, these terms are only used to distinguish one member, component, region, layer, or portion from another member, component, region, layer, or portion. Therefore, without departing from the teachings of the examples described herein, the first member, component, region, layer, or portion referred to may also be referred to as the second member, component, region, layer, or portion.

Such spatial relational terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the accompanying drawings. For example, if the device in the accompanying drawings is turned over, an element described as being "above" or "upper" relative to another element will subsequently be "below" or "lower" relative to the other element. Therefore, the term "above" includes both "above" and "below" orientations depending on the spatial orientation of the device. The device may also be positioned in other ways (e.g., rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatial relational terms used herein will be interpreted accordingly.

Preferably, the outer diameter of the extension end 12 may be smaller than the inner diameter of the lens mount 2, so that the extension end 12 can be inserted into the lens mount 2, and the extension end 12 may be coaxially arranged with the lens mount 2. Such an arrangement can better position the lens 1. In addition, the length of the extension end 12 may be smaller than the length of the lens mount 2 to avoid the end of the extension end 12 from abutting against the sensor circuit board 3 and causing a bump.
[0041] More preferably, Figures 1 to 4As shown, in an embodiment, the lens 1 may further include an annular connecting plate 13.

The connecting portion is coaxially arranged with the lens mount 2, and the outer diameter of the connecting portion is smaller than the outer diameter of the lens mount 2. Preferably, the outer diameter of the connecting portion may be equal to the outer diameter of the annular connecting plate 13, and the inner diameter of the connecting portion may be equal to the inner diameter of the annular connecting plate 13, so as to facilitate the connection of the annular connecting plate 13 with the first side end of the lens mount 2.

The sensor circuit board 3 is installed in the front shell 4 of the camera. Such an arrangement can avoid the relative position of the sensor circuit board 3 and the lens 1 from being offset due to external forces, thereby preventing the imaging of the camera from being eccentric. In addition, the lens 1, the lens mount 2 and the sensor circuit board 3 surround and form a closed space, which improves the dustproof and waterproof capabilities of the camera sensor, thereby improving the overall performance of the camera.
