[0073] The present disclosure relates to an optical element driving mechanism having a driving component and a guiding component for driving a movable portion and an optical element to move, thereby adjusting the photographic imaging of the optical element driving mechanism to meet different photographic requirements.

[0074] First, please see Figures 1 to 4 , Figure 1 1 is a perspective view of an optical element driving mechanism 1 and an optical element 10 according to certain features of the present disclosure. Figure 2 According to certain features of the present disclosure, the optical element driving mechanism 1 and the optical element 10 are arranged along Figure 1 Cross-section view of line AA. Figure 3 According to certain features of the present disclosure, the optical element driving mechanism 1 and the optical element 10 are shown in a perspective view with the outer cover 210 and the buffer element 220 removed for illustrative purposes. Figure 4 The exploded perspective view of the optical element driving mechanism 1 and the optical element 10 according to certain features of the present disclosure is shown, with the outer cover 210 and the buffer element 220 removed for illustrative purposes.

[0075] The optical element drive mechanism 1 includes a movable portion 100, a fixed portion 200, a drive assembly 300, an aperture assembly 400, a circuit assembly 500, and a guide assembly 600. The movable portion 100 is connected to the optical element 10, which can be, for example, an optical lens. The movable portion 100 can move relative to the fixed portion 200. The drive assembly 300 drives the movable portion 100 to move. The optical element 10 is mounted on a lens drive device (not shown), and the lens drive device achieves the functions of autofocus (AF) and optical image stabilization (OIS). The lens drive device has multiple drive circuit units (not shown) for driving the lens drive device.

[0076] The movable portion 100 includes a stabilizing element 110. The stabilizing element 110 is fixedly mounted on the side of the movable portion 100 opposite a magnetic element 310 of the driving assembly 300. The stabilizing element 110 can be a magnetic element of different size than the magnetic element 310, providing additional magnetic attraction to the movable portion 100 to stabilize the structure.

[0077] The fixing portion 200 includes an outer cover 210 , a buffer element 220 , a frame 230 , a base 240 , an outer frame 250 , a light shielding element 260 and an inner cover 270 .

[0078] The outer cover 210 at least partially covers the aperture assembly 400 and the optical element 10. The buffer element 220 is disposed between the outer cover 210 and the aperture assembly 400. The outer cover 210 and the buffer element 220 can protect the components in the optical element driving mechanism 1 from being easily affected by external impact.

[0079] Please also see Figure 5 . Figure 5 According to certain features of the present disclosure, the optical element driving mechanism 1 is arranged along Figure 1 In the cross-sectional view taken along line BB, for illustrative purposes, the outer cover 210 and the cushioning element 220 are removed, and the first portion 241 of the base 240 is shown with diagonal lines. The frame 230 is fixedly connected to the base 240. The base 240 has a protrusion P1. The protrusion P1 protrudes toward a first side S1 of the outer frame 250.

[0080] The base 240 includes a first portion 241, a second portion 242, and a plurality of connecting elements 243, 244, 245, 246, and 247. The second portion 242 is fixedly connected to the first portion 241. A thickness T2 of the second portion 242 is greater than a thickness T1 of the first portion 241, and the second portion 242 has a greater hardness than the first portion 241. The plurality of connecting elements 243, 244, 245, 246, and 247 are embedded in the second portion 242.

[0081] The light shielding element 260 can be made of a light absorbing material, such as SOMA. The inner cover 270 is movably disposed on the aperture assembly 400. The aperture assembly 400 is located between the light shielding element 260 and the inner cover 270.

[0082] Please continue to refer to Figure 4 The driving assembly 300 includes a magnetic element 310 and a coil 320. The magnetic element 310 is disposed on the movable portion 100. The coil 320 is disposed on the protruding structure P1 of the base 240, adjacent to the first side S1.

[0083] The electromagnetic driving force generated between the magnetic element 310 and the coil 320 causes the magnetic element 310 to move relative to the coil 320. This causes the movable portion 100 to move relative to the base 240, driving the aperture assembly 400. Therefore, the electromagnetic driving force generated between the magnetic element 310 and the coil 320 drives the movable portion 100, which in turn drives the aperture assembly 400 to move relative to the base 240.

[0084] The aperture assembly 400 has a plurality of blades 410. In this embodiment, there are six blades 410. The six blades 410 form an opening 470, and an incident light enters the optical element 10 through the opening 470.

[0085] Circuit assembly 500 includes a plurality of external components 511, 512, 513, 514 and a plurality of elastic components 521, 522, 523, 524, 525, 526. The elastic components 521, 522, 523, 524, 525, 526 are flexible. External components 511, 512, 513, 514 are electrically connected to the elastic components 521, 522, 523, 524, 525, 526. The elastic components 521, 522, 523, 524, 525, 526 are electrically connected to coil 320 via connecting components 243, 244, 245, 246, 247.

[0086] The external components 511, 512, 513, 514 include a plurality of electrical connection portions 511-E, 512-E, 513-E, 514-E extending along the direction of incident light, that is, the electrical connection portions extend along the optical axis O. Specifically, the distance between the plurality of electrical connection portions 511-E, 512-E, 513-E, 514-E and the optical axis O is greater than the distance between the outer frame 250 and the optical axis O. Moreover, when viewed along the direction of incident light, the electrical connection portions 511-E, 512-E, 513-E, 514-E of the circuit assembly 500 at least partially overlap with the outer frame 250 (see FIG. 2 ). Figure 1 ), thereby facilitating the placement of the optical element driving mechanism 1 on the lens driving device. Specifically, in this embodiment, the lens driving device equipped with the optical element 10 does not need to additionally design a circuit for driving the movable portion 100 and the aperture assembly 400, thereby complicating the structural design of the lens driving device. At the same time, in conjunction with the electrical connection portions 511-E, 512-E, 513-E, and 514-E of the circuit assembly 500 located on the first side S1 of the optical element driving mechanism 1, the driving circuit portion of the lens driving device can also be arranged on the first side S1. When the electrical connection portions 511-E, 512-E, 513-E, and 514-E and the driving circuit portion are all located on the same side, the circuit design for controlling the optical element driving mechanism 1 and the lens driving device can be made more convenient and simplified.

[0087] The base 240 is connected to the outer frame 250 via elastic elements 521, 522, 523, 524, 525, 526. Due to the flexibility of the elastic elements 521, 522, 523, 524, 525, 526, the base 240 can move relative to the outer frame 250. The outer elements 511, 512, 513, 514 are located on the first side S1 of the outer frame 250.

[0088] The guide assembly 600 includes a plurality of guide elements. In this embodiment, there are four guide elements 611, 612, 613, and 614 disposed between the movable portion 100 and the frame 230, adjacent to the first side S1. The movable portion 100 is connected to the frame 230 via the four guide elements 611, 612, 613, and 614. The guide elements 611, 612, 613, and 614 movably connect the frame 230 and the movable portion 100. When the movable portion 100 is driven by the drive assembly 300 and moves, the guide elements 611, 612, 613, and 614 roll between the frame 230 and the movable portion 100, allowing the movable portion 100 to move smoothly relative to the frame 230.

[0089] The magnetic element 310 includes a first surface 311 and a second surface 312. The first surface 311 and the second surface 312 face opposite directions. The first surface 311 faces the optical axis O, and the second surface 312 faces the coil 320. The distance d2 between the guiding elements 611, 612, 613, and 614 and the optical axis O of the incident light is greater than the distance d1 between the magnetic element 310 and the optical axis O (see Figure 5 ), and the distance d2 between the guiding elements 611, 612, 613, and 614 and the optical axis O of the incident light is greater than the distance between the second surface 312 of the magnetic element 310 and the optical axis O. The first surface 311 and the second surface 312 are both curved surfaces, and the radius of curvature of the first surface 311 is different from the radius of curvature of the second surface 312, with the radius of curvature of the first surface 311 being smaller than the radius of curvature of the second surface 312. With this structural design, when the electromagnetic driving force causes the magnetic element 310 to move relative to the coil 320, the electromagnetic driving force can be made more stable, thereby further stabilizing the movement of the movable portion 100 and the aperture assembly 400.

[0090] The following is relative to Figures 6 to 9 The movement of the movable portion 100 relative to the frame 230 will be described. Figure 6 A top view of the optical element driving mechanism 1 and the optical element 10 according to certain features of the present disclosure, wherein the blade 410 is located in a first position, and the outer cover 210, the inner cover 270, and the buffer element 220 are removed for illustrative purposes. Figure 7 A top view of the optical element driving mechanism 1 and the optical element 10 according to certain features of the present disclosure, wherein the blade 410 is located in a second position, and the outer cover 210, the inner cover 270, and the buffer element 220 are removed for illustrative purposes. Figure 8 A top view of the optical element driving mechanism 1 and the optical element 10 according to certain features of the present disclosure, wherein the blade 410 is located in a third position, and the outer cover 210, the inner cover 270, and the buffer element 220 are removed for illustrative purposes. Figure 9A top view of the optical element driving mechanism 1 and the optical element 10 according to certain features of the present disclosure, wherein the blade 410 is located in a fourth position, and the outer cover 210, the inner cover 270, and the buffer element 220 are removed for illustrative purposes.

[0091] The movable portion 100 is connected to the six blades 410. Each of the six blades 410 has a hole 410-a and a slot 410-b for connecting the movable portion 100 and the frame 230, as will be further explained below.

[0092] The movable portion 100 and the blade 410 can move relative to the frame 230. The movable portion 100 has a plurality of protrusions 100-b that penetrate into the long hole 410-b of the blade 410 and can move within the long hole 410-b.

[0093] The frame 230 has a plurality of protrusions 230-a that pass through the holes 410-a of the blade 410 and can rotate within the holes 410-a. The blade 410 is connected to the movable part 100 and the frame 230 via the protrusions 100-b and protrusions 230-a and the long holes 410-b and holes 410-a.

[0094] When the movable portion 100 is driven by the drive assembly 300 to move, the plurality of protrusions 100-b of the movable portion 100 penetrate the elongated holes 410-b of the blade 410 and move within the elongated holes 410-b. Furthermore, the plurality of protrusions 230-a of the frame 230 penetrate the holes 410-a of the blade 410 and rotate within the holes 410-a, thereby driving the movement of the blade 410. The movement of the blade 410 adjusts the size of the opening 470 formed by the blade 410.

[0095] exist Figure 6 In the first position shown, the opening 470 formed by the blades 410 is larger, so that a larger amount of incident light can pass through the opening 470 to reach the optical element 10 in this position.

[0096] exist Figure 7 In the second position shown, the opening 470 formed by the blades 410 is relatively large. Figure 6 The first position shown is small, so the second position may allow less incident light to reach the optical element 10 through the opening 470 than in the first position.

[0097] exist Figure 8 In the third position shown, the opening 470 formed by the blades 410 is relatively large. Figure 7 The second position is shown to be small, so that the amount of incident light reaching the optical element 10 through the opening 470 in the third position is less than that in the second position.

[0098] exist Figure 9 In the fourth position shown, the opening 470 formed by the blades 410 is relatively large. Figure 6The first position shown, Figure 7 The second position shown and Figure 8 The third position shown is small, so the amount of incident light reaching the optical element 10 through the opening 470 in the fourth position is less than that in the first position, the second position, and the third position.

[0099] In summary, the utility model provides an optical element driving mechanism, which includes a movable part, a fixed part, a driving assembly, an aperture assembly and a guide assembly. The movement of the driving assembly drives the movable part to move relative to the fixed part. Thus, the position of the blades can be adjusted, and the amount of incident light reaching the optical element can be adjusted to adapt to different photographic needs and provide more stable optical quality. At the same time, through the design of the outer frame and the circuit assembly, the optical element driving mechanism can be more easily set on the lens driving device, so that the structural design of the movable part and the aperture assembly of the optical element driving mechanism will not be affected by the lens driving device, but can be used with lens driving devices of different sizes. In addition, the circuit design for driving the movement of the movable part and the aperture assembly and the circuit design of the lens driving device can be independent of each other, thereby simplifying the design of the control circuit.
