Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to camera technology, and more particularly to a camera module and terminal device. Background Technology

[0002] Existing camera modules mainly consist of three parts: a sensor assembly, a mounting base, and an optical lens. To ensure good exposure even at the edges of the sensor assembly's light-sensitive area, the light-receiving area of ​​the optical lens is generally larger than the sensor assembly's light-sensitive area. Simultaneously, to prevent stray light from being reflected by the non-light-sensitive areas of the sensor assembly, the base window of the mounting base is typically between the light-receiving area of ​​the optical lens and the light-sensitive area of ​​the sensor assembly. This results in the light-receiving area of ​​the optical lens partially covering the mounting base, causing some incident light to illuminate the upper surface of the mounting base and be reflected, creating stray light. This stray light undergoes multiple internal reflections between the mounting base and the optical lens, ultimately reaching the sensor assembly's light-sensitive area through the base window on the mounting base, thus affecting the sensor assembly's imaging performance. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a camera module and terminal device that can eliminate stray light formed by the reflection of incident light from the mounting base, thereby improving the imaging effect.

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] A camera module, comprising:

[0006] The sensor assembly has a photosensitive area;

[0007] A mounting base is provided on the sensor assembly and has a base window;

[0008] An optical lens, mounted on the mounting base, has a light-receiving area;

[0009] The photosensitive area, the base window, and the light-entry area are aligned sequentially along the optical axis, and the light-entry area is larger than the base window, and the base window is larger than the photosensitive area.

[0010] The mounting base has a first matte ink layer on the side surface facing the optical lens.

[0011] Furthermore, the first matte ink layer is black ink.

[0012] Furthermore, the thickness of the first matte ink layer is 6-14 μm.

[0013] Furthermore, the sensor assembly includes a first rigid PCB, an FPC flexible board, a second rigid PCB, an electrical connector, and an image sensor. The image sensor is mounted on one side surface of the first rigid PCB, the electrical connector is mounted on one side surface of the second rigid PCB, and the FPC flexible board is connected between the first rigid PCB and the second rigid PCB. The mounting base is disposed on the side surface of the first rigid PCB used to mount the image sensor.

[0014] Furthermore, the mounting base includes a support portion and a mounting portion. The support portion protrudes from the mounting portion on the side surface facing the first PCB rigid board and surrounds the periphery of the image sensor. The base window is disposed within the mounting portion, and the first matte ink layer is disposed on the side surface of the mounting portion facing the optical lens.

[0015] Furthermore, at least a portion of the inner wall of the mounting base at the base window is sloped, with the slope facing the optical lens.

[0016] Furthermore, the first matte ink layer extends to cover the inclined surface of the mounting base.

[0017] Furthermore, the camera module also includes an infrared cut-off filter, which is disposed within the base window of the mounting base.

[0018] Furthermore, a second matte ink layer is provided on the side surface of the infrared cut-off filter facing the optical lens. The second matte ink layer has an ink window that is aligned with the base window and is the same size as the photosensitive area.

[0019] A terminal device includes the aforementioned camera module.

[0020] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: The camera module of the present invention provides the first matte ink layer on the side surface of the mounting base facing the optical lens, so that part of the incident light that hits the mounting base is absorbed and canceled by the first matte ink layer, thereby avoiding stray light formed by the mounting base reflecting the incident light, and ultimately improving the imaging effect of the sensor assembly.

[0026] Example 1

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, a camera module includes:

[0028] Sensor assembly 1 has a photosensitive area;

[0029] Mounting base 2 is mounted on the sensor assembly 1 and has a base window;

[0030] Optical lens 3 is mounted on the mounting base 2 and has a light-receiving area;

[0031] The photosensitive area, the base window, and the light-entry area are aligned sequentially along the optical axis, and the light-entry area is larger than the base window, and the base window is larger than the photosensitive area.

[0032] The mounting base 2 has a first matte ink layer 4 on the side surface facing the optical lens 3.

[0033] The camera module of this utility model provides a first matte ink layer 4 on the side surface of the mounting base 2 facing the optical lens 3. This allows a portion of the incident light that hits the mounting base 2 to be absorbed and canceled by the first matte ink layer 4, thereby preventing the mounting base 2 from generating stray light due to reflection of the incident light and ultimately improving the imaging effect of the sensor assembly 1.

[0034] Preferably, the first matte ink layer 4 is black ink and has a thickness of 6-14 μm.

[0035] The sensor assembly 1 includes a first rigid PCB 11, an FPC flexible board 12, a second rigid PCB 13, an electrical connector 14, and an image sensor 15. The image sensor 15 is mounted on one side surface of the first rigid PCB 11, the electrical connector 14 is mounted on one side surface of the second rigid PCB 13, and the FPC flexible board 12 is connected between the first rigid PCB 11 and the second rigid PCB 13. The mounting base 2 is disposed on the side surface of the first rigid PCB 11 for mounting the image sensor 15.

[0036] During terminal assembly, the camera module is connected to the processor motherboard of the terminal device through the electrical connector 14 on the sensor assembly 1. The image signal collected by the image sensor 15 is converted from analog to digital by the peripheral circuit on the first PCB rigid board 11, and then transmitted to the processor motherboard of the terminal device for data processing through the FPC flexible board 12, the second PCB rigid board 13 and the electrical connector 14 in sequence.

[0037] In this embodiment, the electrical connector 14 is a BTB connector.

[0038] The mounting base 2 includes a support portion 21 and a mounting portion 22. The support portion 21 protrudes from the mounting portion 22 on one side surface facing the first PCB rigid board 11 and surrounds the periphery of the image sensor 15. The base window is disposed inside the mounting portion 22, and the first matte ink layer 4 is disposed on the mounting portion 22 on one side surface facing the optical lens 3.

[0039] The mounting base 2 has at least a portion of the inner wall of the window at the base window set as an inclined surface, and the inclined surface faces the optical lens 3.

[0040] The camera module of this utility model designs at least part of the inner wall of the window of the mounting base 2 as an inclined surface, so as to change the reflection direction of the incident light by the inner wall of the window, thereby causing the reflected light to re-enter the optical lens 3 at a specific angle and finally exit the camera module through the optical lens 3, thereby reducing the secondary reflection of the reflected light by the optical lens 3.

[0041] Preferably, in order to prevent the incident light reflected by the inclined surface from being reflected back by the optical lens 3, the first matte ink layer 4 can extend to cover the inclined surface of the mounting base 2 to absorb and cancel out this part of the light.

[0042] The camera module also includes an infrared cut-off filter 5, which is disposed within the base window of the mounting base 2.

[0043] The camera module of this utility model filters out the infrared light portion of the incident light by setting the infrared cut-off filter 5 in the base window of the mounting base 2, thereby avoiding interference of infrared light with the imaging of the image sensor 15.

[0044] Preferably, the infrared cut-off filter 5 has a second matte ink layer 6 on the side surface facing the optical lens 3. The second matte ink layer 6 has an ink window that is aligned with the base window and is the same size as the photosensitive area.

[0045] The camera module of this utility model provides a second matte ink layer 6 on the surface of the infrared cut-off filter 5 facing the optical lens 3. This allows some of the incident light that hits the outer area of ​​the infrared cut-off filter 5 to be absorbed and canceled by the second matte ink layer 6, thereby preventing stray light from forming in the outer area of ​​the infrared cut-off filter 5 due to reflection of incident light, and ultimately improving the imaging effect of the sensor assembly 1.

[0046] Preferably, the second matte ink layer 6 is also black ink, and its thickness is 4-10 μm.

Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can still be made to the technical solutions of the present utility model, and these modifications or equivalent substitutions cannot cause the modified technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the present utility model.
