Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of curved surface long - focal - length driving devices, and particularly to a curved surface long - focal - length driving device, a camera and an electronic device. Background Art
[0002] In the existing periscope - type structure design, the elastic sheet is usually arranged on the side or at a 45 - degree inclined position. This layout brings an obvious challenge when assembling the elastic sheet and the OIS (Optical Image Stabilizer) carrier: an inevitable flipping operation is required during the assembly process. This step not only increases the complexity of manual labor but also seriously hinders the realization of automated assembly. The difficulty of automated assembly mainly stems from the fact that the flipping action is difficult to be accurately simulated by a robotic arm or other automated devices, which leads to a reduction in production efficiency, an increase in production costs, and an increase in the risk of product damage during the production process. Although the horizontal placement scheme of the OIS spring can solve the above problems, due to the traditional periscope - type structure, its anti - shake direction is Pitch + Yaw (pitch + yaw). If the OIS spring adopts the horizontal placement scheme, the OIS spring needs to be customized and produced with a special width - thickness ratio design, increasing additional production costs. Summary of the Utility Model
[0003] In view of this, the utility model provides a curved surface long - focal - length driving device, a camera and an electronic device. The innovative design of the curved surface long - focal - length driving device, through the horizontal arrangement of the OIS spring and the optimization of the prism curved surface, not only simplifies the assembly process, improves production efficiency, but also effectively reduces costs and improves product quality.
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0005] A curved surface long - focal - length driving device includes a base, a housing, a prism carrier, an OIS spring and OIS balls for supporting the prism carrier, an OIS magnet and an OIS coil for driving the prism carrier, an AF carrier, AF balls for supporting the AF carrier, an AF magnet and an AF coil for driving the AF carrier. The OIS spring is horizontally placed on the base and contacts the bottom of the prism carrier. The prism carrier is equipped with a prism, and the prism is provided with a first curved surface and a second curved surface.
[0006] The horizontal arrangement of the OIS spring enables the prism carrier to be directly inserted into the base from above without complex flipping operations. This intuitive assembly method greatly simplifies the assembly steps and makes automated assembly possible. The realization of automated assembly not only improves production efficiency but also significantly reduces manual intervention, thereby reducing the error rate and rework rate caused by human factors.
[0007] The first surface and the second surface are provided on the prism in the device. The innovation of this design lies in that it changes the anti-shake direction of the OIS spring on the prism, from the traditional Pitch+Yaw to Pitch+Roll. This change not only optimizes the anti-shake effect but also enables the OIS spring to adopt a conventional width-to-thickness ratio without the need for a customized special spring design. Springs with a conventional width-to-thickness ratio are not only easier to obtain but also reduce the manufacturing cost and improve the overall economy. This innovation in design fully reflects the dual considerations of device performance and cost control, demonstrating the pursuit of balance between efficiency and economy in modern optical device manufacturing.
[0008] The innovative design of the curved surface telephoto drive device, through the horizontal arrangement of the OIS spring and the optimization of the prism curved surface, not only simplifies the assembly process, improves production efficiency, but also effectively reduces costs, bringing a qualitative leap to the manufacturing of optical devices. These series of design and technological breakthroughs not only demonstrate the innovative vitality in the field of modern optical manufacturing but also inject new impetus into the development of the industry, indicating the arrival of an era of more efficient, more economical, and higher-performance optical device manufacturing. Through continuous technological innovation and process optimization, future optical devices will be able to better meet the market and consumers' demands for high-quality and high-performance products, promoting the entire industry to develop towards a higher-end and more precise direction.

The distance between the first surface and the AF carrier along the direction of the optical channel line is less than the distance between the second surface and the AF carrier along the direction of the optical channel line. This differential layout can precisely adjust the propagation path of the light between the prism and the AF carrier (automatic focusing carrier), realizing the fine control of image stability and significantly improving the image stabilization effect and overall performance of the device.
[0011] Preferably, the first surface is recessed inward and the second surface is convex outward.
[0012] The first surface is recessed inward, while the second surface is convex outward.

The design of the second surface being convex outward can further optimize the refraction angle of light, ensure that the light is evenly and stably projected onto the imaging sensor, avoid the phenomenon of blurred image edges or uneven brightness, and significantly improve the overall quality of the image.
