[0161] This embodiment addresses mutual interference between magnets in a voice coil motor (VCM) structure. I will try to propose a structure that eliminates this limitation.

[0162] In this embodiment, the magnet 1320 of the first lens drive device 1000 has three magnets It is composed of two 4-pole magnets and the remaining magnet is a 2-pole magnet. It could be a magnet. Two first coils 1220 are connected in series, and each has 4 poles Positioned opposite the magnet, it provides the necessary thrust during AF operation, and each magnet A second coil 1422 is positioned at the lower end to provide OIS thrust in the X and Y directions. This can be done. On the opposite side of the two-pole magnetized magnet, there is a dummy component (dum (my mass) is positioned and vibration (oscillatio) due to weight eccentricity during OIS operation This can prevent n).

[0163] In the mechanism configuration of this embodiment, two of the four sides of the bobbin 1210 are opposite each other. One coil 1220 is directly wound and instead of four magnets there are three magnets and a dummy part. The materials can be assembled into the housing. In the Y direction, there are two quad-pole magnetized magnets and The thrust is generated by a segmented configuration of one pair of second coils 1422, but in the X direction, there is a single two-pole magnetized... Since thrust is generated by the separate configuration of the Gnet and one second coil 1422, in the X direction The thrust force inevitably becomes small. To solve this, in this embodiment, the lens central axis (C1) is eccentrically positioned from the product's central axis (C2) towards the dummy member 1330 to create a two-pole magnet. The remaining space on the base 1430 side of the direction is used to turn the second coil 1422. The number of thrusters was increased to increase the thrust in the X direction.

[0164] When using only two-pole magnets as in the comparative example, the density of the magnetic field distribution of adjacent magnets As this increases, attractive or repulsive forces are generated between adjacent VCMs, affecting OIS control. Difficulties may arise. The magnetic field distribution for the comparative example is shown in Figure 13.

[0165] In this embodiment, by applying a 4-pole magnetized magnet, the two lens drive devices This can be achieved by reducing magnetic field interference between the magnets. This is illustrated in Figure 14. On the other hand, according to this embodiment, the repulsive force between adjacent VCMs due to magnetic field interference is ignored. When designed at this level, OIS control is possible while ignoring the effects of magnetic field interference.

[0166] In this example, the top surface of the magnet 1320 is in contact with the comparative example. The portion that constitutes the minimum injection thickness of the housing 1310 is removed, and the upper elastic member 151 The assembly surface of 0 and the top surface of magnet 1320 can be configured to coincide. Furthermore, in this embodiment, although it is on the same plane as the assembly surface of the upper elastic member 1510, the upper elastic The space that member 1510 does not pass through is completely filled with injection-molded material to create a stopper 13 The outer casing where 14 is located can form the upper plate 1313 of the housing 1310. When viewed from above (in top view), this embodiment is as shown in Figure 11. Although a portion of the top surface of the magnet 1320 is exposed, the gap between it and the cover 1100 is maintained. The upper plate of the housing 1310 is connected to the stopper 1314 of the housing 1310. The magnet 1320 can be mechanically restrained by 1313. In other words, in this implementation As an example, the mechanical constraint effect of magnet 1320 and the upward orientation of the upper surface of magnet 1320 are considered. It is possible to simultaneously ensure the effect of creating a visual representation.
