[0051] The base 1 includes bottom plate 11, multiple support columns 12, built-in circuit 14 and at least three support blocks 13.
[0052] The bottom plate 11 is rectangular plate and has four sides, and each side of the bottom plate 11 is provided with at least two winding blocks on the top surface, and the two winding blocks are arranged at intervals for winding the OIS coil 15.
[0053] The top surface of the bottom plate 11 is further provided with four steps 18, and the four steps 18 are located at the four corners of the bottom plate 11. The four support blocks 13 are connected to the four steps 18, and the support blocks 13 are made of wear-resistant material for supporting the frame 2. Specifically, the top surface of the four steps 18 is provided with a groove 17, and the bottom of the four support blocks 13 is located in the groove 17 of the four steps 18, and the top end protrudes from the top surface of the step 18.
[0054] The height of the four steps 18 is not less than the height of the winding block, and after the OIS coil 15 is wound on the winding block, the height is lower than the height of the four steps 18, which does not affect the movement of the frame 2.
[0055] In the prior art, the frame 2 is supported by rolling balls, but the rolling balls are very small in size, and the yield of good products is too low, and the cost of mass production is very high. The support blocks 13 of the utility model are used instead of rolling balls, which is convenient for processing.
[0056] In one embodiment, the support block 13 is a circular thin sheet and the bottom end is embedded in the groove 17 of the step 18, and the top end protrudes from the top surface of the step 18. The top surface of the thin sheet is a smooth surface, and the diameter of the thin sheet is much larger than that of the rolling ball, which is convenient for processing and assembly.
[0057] In addition, the support block 13 is preferably made of ceramic or metal material, which is more wear-resistant and low in cost.
[0058] The four support columns 12 are connected to the four corners of the bottom plate 11 and extend upward, and the four support columns 12 are located radially outside the four steps 18, which can limit the movement range of the frame 2.

The adsorbing patches serve as adsorbing iron sheets 143 and generate adsorbing force with the magnet strips 23 of the frame 2, so that the structure between the frame 2 and the base 1 is more compact and stable, and at the same time, the frame 2 can be abutted on the support block 13 under the action of the adsorbing force, so as to ensure that the support block 13 has good supporting effect.
[0061] The bottom surface of the bottom plate 11 is also provided with a recessed sensor mounting groove 211 for mounting a plurality of sensors 19 for sensing the position of the frame 2, and the sensors 19 are also electrically connected with the built-in circuit 14.
[0062] The frame 2 includes a frame body 21, a built-in metal frame 22, a plurality of magnet strips 23 and at least three support protrusions 24.

[0074] When the magnet strip 23 is installed in the installation groove 211, it is necessary to fix the magnet strip 23 with glue, but the glue will overflow outside the installation groove 211. The side wall of the installation groove 211 is set as the inclined surface 212 in the utility model, which facilitates the glue to flow into the installation groove 211 from the inclined surface 212, and the excess glue can also flow into the containing groove 213 near the inclined surface 212, without overflowing outside the frame 21.
[0075] In some embodiments, the installation groove 211 can also be recessed from the top surface of the frame 21, one or two side walls of the installation groove 211 along the length direction can be set as the inclined surface 212, the size of the installation groove 211 along the length direction gradually decreases from top to bottom, and the bottom wall of the installation groove 211 is provided with the containing groove 213 adjacent to the inclined surface 212.
