DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0016] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more comprehensible, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the following embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the embodiments depicted herein are merely for the purpose of illustrating the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0017] FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a lens device according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is an exploded view of a lens device 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing some elements of a lens device according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, in one embodiment of the present invention, the lens device 10 includes a base 100, a lens module 200, a first carrier 300, and a second carrier 400. The lens module 200 has an optical axis along a first direction X. The first carrier 300 is mounted on the base 100 and moves relative to the base 100 along the first direction X, and carries the lens module 200. The second carrier 400 is connected on the base 100 and moves relative to the base 100 in a second direction Y and a third direction Z. The first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z are perpendicular to each other. The first carrier 300 is connected to the second carrier 400 or the base 100 by a strip-shaped elastic body 500, and moves away from the second carrier 400 along a first direction X under the action of a first carrier driving device, and the strip-shaped elastic body 500 always applies elasticity to the first carrier 300 to move the first carrier 300 away from the base 100, that is, the strip-shaped elastic body 500 always applies elasticity to the first carrier 300 to direct the first carrier 300 toward a subject (not shown) in the first direction X. The second carrier 400 is connected to an electric terminal 104 embedded in the base 100 by an elastic body 600 extending along the first direction X, and moves relative to the base 100 along the second direction Y and the third direction Z under the action of a second carrier driving device. The lens device 10 may further include a cover 1000 connected to the base 100.

[0018] 3, the base 100 has a body 101 and two side walls 102 connected to both sides of the body 101. A light passing hole 103 is provided on the base 100.

[0019] Referring to FIG. 1, a lens module 200 includes a lens barrel 201 and one or more lenses 202 housed within the lens barrel 201 .

[0020] FIG. 4 is an exploded view of a first carrier and associated elements of a lens device according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 5 is an exploded view of a base and associated elements of a lens device according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 6 is an exploded view of a second carrier and associated elements of a lens device according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view of a first carrier and a second carrier position of a lens device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIGS. 1 to 7 simultaneously, the first carrier 300 is substantially cylindrical, and has a first side wall 301 and a second side wall 302 arranged opposite to each other in a second direction Y, and a third side wall 303 and a fourth side wall 304 arranged opposite to each other in a third direction Z. Any two adjacent surfaces of the first to fourth side walls 301 to 304 are connected by a transition surface, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The first carrier 300 is provided with a receiving hole 305 to receive the lens module 200, and the lens module 200 is fixed in the receiving hole 305 by a manner such as adhesive or interference fitting. The dimension of the light through hole 103 of the base 100 is smaller than the outer dimension of the first carrier 300, so the first carrier 300 cannot pass through the light through hole 103. The dimension of the light through hole 103 is equal to or larger than the outer dimension of the lens 202, so that light passes through the lens 202 without being blocked.

[0021] The first carrier driving device includes a first carrier driving coil 801 installed on one of the first carrier 300 and the second carrier 400, and a first carrier driving magnet 802 installed on the other. That is, the first carrier driving magnet 802 can be installed on the first carrier 300 or the second carrier 400. In the illustrated embodiment, the first carrier driving coil 801 is installed on the first carrier 300. A first flexible printed circuit board 803 is installed on the first carrier 300. The first flexible printed circuit board 803 is installed around the outer periphery wall of the first carrier 300. The first carrier driving coil 801 is connected to the first flexible printed circuit board 803 and can be fixed outside the first side wall 301 and the second side wall 302. A Hall driving integrated circuit 803a and a capacitor 803b are installed on the first flexible printed circuit board 803, and correspond to the fourth side wall 304 of the first carrier 300.

[0022] In addition, a first recess is provided on the outer surface of the first carrier 300, and a corresponding second recess is provided on the inner surface of the second carrier 400, and the second recess is L-shaped. A guide element 307 extending along the first direction X is provided between the first carrier 300 and the second carrier 400, and the guide element 307 is located in the first recess and the second recess. A fixing edge 308 corresponding to the guide element 307 is formed on the first carrier 300, and the fixing edge 308 is located at both ends of the first recess, and the fixing edge 308 fixes a part of both ends of the guide element 307, so that the guide element 307 cannot move relative to the first carrier 300, and the guide element 307 can be stably installed in the first recess. Preferably, the guide element 307 is a magnetic material, so that the first carrier driving magnet 802 and the second carrier driving magnet 902 installed on the second carrier 400 and adjacent to the guide element 307 attract the guide element 307, and the first carrier driving magnet 802 and the second carrier driving magnet 902 generate pressure on the first carrier 300 in a direction perpendicular to the movement direction (first direction X) against the attractive force of the guide element 307, that is, the guide element 307 generates an attractive force with the first carrier driving magnet 802 and the second carrier driving magnet 902, and under a condition where no electricity is applied, this attractive force allows the guide element 307 to maintain its position in the optical axis direction, which can greatly reduce power consumption and eliminate the gap between the first carrier 300 and the second carrier 400, thereby preventing the gap caused by the installation of the guide elements from affecting accuracy. The guide element 307 has an attractive effect on the first carrier driving magnet 802 and the second carrier driving magnet 902, even on the lower side in the optical axis direction, and attracts the first carrier 300 to one side closer to the base 100. This prevents the parts from being affected by gaps caused by manufacturing tolerances when the first carrier 300 is linearly moved relative to the second carrier 400 in the first direction X, thereby achieving precise and stable autofocus linear movement.

[0023] A positioning pillar is provided on the end face of the first carrier 300 remote from the base 100, and a positioning tank is provided on the positioning pillar, and a strip-shaped elastic body 500 is fixed thereon. The number of the strip-shaped elastic body 500 may be more than one, the strip-shaped elastic body 500 has a movable side and a fixed side, and the first carrier 300 located on the movable side of the strip-shaped elastic body 500 and the second carrier 400 located on the fixed side of the strip-shaped elastic body 500 have a height difference, that is, the surfaces of the first carrier 300 and the second carrier 400 facing the object are located on different horizontal planes, and the height of the second carrier 400 installed on the fixed side of the strip-shaped elastic body 500 is higher than that of the first carrier 300 on the movable side. Therefore, the strip-shaped elastic body 500 exerts the effect of pulling the first carrier 300 upward along the optical axis, that is, it exerts an elastic force toward the object along the first direction X, and the strip-shaped elastic body 500 always exerts an elastic force on the first carrier 300 toward the object along the first direction X. In the illustrated embodiment, the strip-shaped elastic body 500 has an arm portion 501, a suppressing portion 502, and a fixed portion 503 connected to each other, specifically, the suppressing portion 502 is a movable side fixed portion, and the fixed portion 503 is a fixed side fixed portion. The suppressing portion 502 is located at one end of the arm portion 501 and is connected to the first carrier 300, and the fixed portion 503 is located at the other end of the arm portion 501 and is connected to the second carrier 400, the base 100, or the elastic body 600. In addition, the non-magnetic guide element 307 and the strip-shaped elastic body 500 can be used together to hold and secure the position of the first carrier 300 in the second direction Y and the third direction Z.

[0024] The pressure control part 502 is disposed around the receiving hole 305 and has an arc shape. One or more strip-shaped elastic bodies 500 are provided, which have the pressure control part 502 and the arm part 501, and are disposed symmetrically with respect to the axis of the light passing hole 103 and the optical axis of the lens module 200, to ensure the balance of the force. Therefore, even when the lens device 10 is not powered, the first carrier 300 can be held in a stable position due to the suction force of the guide element 307 and the pulling force of the strip-shaped elastic body 500. The strip-shaped elastic body 500 and the guide element 307 can be combined or joined together to increase the pressure and pulling force.

[0025] FIG. 6 is an exploded view of the second carrier 400 of the lens device according to the embodiment of the present invention.

An accommodation space 405 for accommodating the first carrier 300 is installed on the second carrier 400, and the first carrier 300 is installed in the accommodation space 405, and is linearly moved relative to the second carrier 400 along the first direction X by a first carrier driving device, thereby realizing autofocus.

[0026] The first recesses on the first carrier 300 can be installed at two opposite corners of the first carrier 300, and the second recesses can be installed at two opposite corners of the second carrier 400 corresponding to the first recesses, that is, the first recesses and the second recesses are installed corresponding to each other. Thus, a space is provided for installing the first carrier driving device and the second carrier driving device. At this time, the adjacent inner surfaces of the second carrier 400 are connected by a transition surface, and the L-shaped second recess is installed on the transition surface, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0027] The second carrier 400 is connected to the electrical terminal 104 embedded in the base 100 by the elastic body 600. The elastic body 600 is a plurality of elastic bodies, stretched along a first direction X, and flexible, for example an elastic wire, which can be deflected at one end when subjected to a force, and can be restored after the external force is removed, but does not extend along the first direction X. In the illustrated embodiment, the elastic body 600 is connected to a square of the base 100, and a recessed groove 406 is provided on the outer surface of the square of the second carrier 400, and the elastic body 600 extends through the recessed groove 406 and is connected to the top of the second carrier 400.
