Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a camera module retainer clip spreader.

[0002] More specifically, the invention relates to a camera module retainer clip spread device configured to prevent damage to the outside of an object while the retainer is installed on the object by causing wing portions formed at both ends of the retainer to spread wider than the size of the object. Background Technology

[0003] Currently, portable terminals such as mobile phones and PDAs are being used as multi-functional devices equipped with music, movie, TV, and game functions, in addition to simple telephone functions, thanks to recent technological advancements.

[0004] Among the factors driving the multifunctionality of the aforementioned portable terminal, the camera module is a representative example. This camera module is changing from the existing 300,000 pixels (VGA level) to a high-resolution centered one of 8 million pixels or more, while simultaneously evolving to implement various additional functions such as autofocus (AF) and optical zoom.

[0005] Generally, compact camera modules (CCMs) are small and are applied to various IT devices, including camera phones, PDAs, smartphones, and other portable mobile communication devices. Recently, however, the release of devices equipped with compact camera modules is gradually increasing to meet the diverse tastes of consumers.

[0006] At this time, the camera module is manufactured using an image sensor such as a CCD or CMOS as a main component, and the image of an object is collected through the image sensor and stored as data in the memory within the device, and the stored data is displayed as an image through a display medium such as an LCD or PC monitor within the device.

[0007] The above-mentioned camera module is configured to be manufactured by mounting a cover-type retainer on the upper part of the lens.

[0008] As one of the technologies related to this, Korean Registered Patent Publication 10-0838754 discloses a retainer fixing structure for a camera module.

[0009] The above-described conventional retainer fixing structure of a camera module comprises: a housing having a cylindrical body formed integrally; a printed circuit board having an image sensor mounted in the center and closely coupled to the lower part of the housing; a lens barrel inserted into the cylindrical body of the housing, having at least one lens stacked and coupled inside and having at least two hooks on the upper side; and a retainer mounted on the upper part of the lens barrel, having a hook coupling hole formed at a point corresponding to the hook, wherein the lens barrel and the retainer are integrally coupled by the hook protruding upwardly from the upper part of the lens barrel being closely inserted into the hook coupling hole provided in the retainer.

[0010] However, the above-mentioned prior art has a problem in that, since the coupling structure between the lens barrel and the retainer is formed such that the hook coupling part of the retainer is coupled to the hook of the lens barrel, the hook coupling part of the retainer may cause damage to the outside of the lens barrel during the process of coupling the retainer to the lens barrel.

[0030] In addition, according to the present invention, by selectively sliding the spread pin according to the operation of the operating part so that at least a portion of the spread pin protrudes outside the frame, the spread pin protruding outside the frame presses the wing portions formed at both ends of the retainer to spread apart.

[0031] In addition, according to the present invention, when air is injected through the first injection port, the piston is configured to move downward, and the lower shape of the piston is formed to gradually taper as it moves downward, so that the piston pushes the spread pin while moving downward, thereby facilitating the sliding movement of the spread pin.

[0032] In addition, according to the present invention, at least one protruding groove having an angle is formed in the lower part of the frame, and the lower part of the piston is formed in a shape corresponding to the protruding groove of the frame. When the piston moves downward by air injected through the first injection port, the lower part of the piston is configured to penetrate the protruding groove of the frame and protrude outward, thereby providing the effect of easily aligning the piston with respect to the main body.

[0033] In addition, according to the present invention, when a straight or cross-shaped protruding groove is formed on the lower part of the frame and the lower part of the piston is formed in a straight or cross shape corresponding to the shape of the protruding groove and configured to move the piston downward by air injected through the first injection port, the lower part of the piston is configured to protrude outward by penetrating the protruding groove of the frame, thereby providing the effect of easily aligning the piston with respect to the main body.

Claims

Claim 1 A camera module retainer clip spread device configured to install a retainer on an object, comprising: a picker part (100) configured to be slidably movable in the Y-axis and Z-axis directions to pick up a retainer (10); a support part (200) comprising a first support jig (210) configured to be slidably movable in the Y-axis direction to support one side of the lower portion of the retainer (10), and a second support jig (220) formed as a pair with the first support jig (210) and configured to be linked to the sliding movement of the first support jig (210) and configured to support the other side of the lower portion of the retainer (10). A camera module retainer clip spread device comprising: a press part (300) configured to be slidable in the Z-axis direction and presses the upper center of the retainer (10), and presses between the first support jig (210) and the second support jig (220) to cause the wing portions (11) formed at both ends of the retainer (10) to spread apart; wherein the first support jig (210) and the second support jig (220) are formed in a shape that gradually tapers toward the upper direction, and the press part (300) is formed in a shape that gradually tapers toward the lower direction. Claim 2 A camera module retainer clip spread device according to claim 1, wherein the picker part (100) is configured to create a vacuum between itself and the retainer (10) to pick up the retainer (10). Claim 3 delete Claim 4 A camera module retainer clip spread device configured to install a retainer on an object, comprising: a picker unit (100) configured to be slidable in any one or more directions among the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis to pick up a retainer (10); a first air chuck (400) configured to be slidable in the X-axis direction and located at the bottom of the retainer (10); a second air chuck (500) formed as a pair with the first air chuck (400) and configured to be slidable in the X-axis direction in conjunction with the sliding movement of the first air chuck (400), and located at the bottom of the retainer (10); and a driving unit (600) configured to cause wing units (11) formed at both ends of the retainer (10) to spread apart by sliding the first air chuck (400) and the second air chuck (500) in directions spaced apart from each other.
