Description

Lifting components, camera devices, and electronic equipment

[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202510300506.2, filed on March 13, 2025, entitled "Lifting Component, Camera Device and Electronic Equipment", the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0002] This application relates to the field of terminal technology, and in particular to a lifting component, a camera device, and an electronic device. Background Technology

[0003] With the development of technology, the camera functions in consumer electronics products such as mobile phones and tablets are becoming more and more powerful. As a result, the size of the camera module is also becoming larger and larger. Under the condition of pursuing thinness and lightness in electronic devices, the appearance of the camera area protrudes significantly, which greatly affects the user experience.

[0004] In related technologies, the camera can be configured as a pop-up structure. During shooting, part of the camera's structure extends from the electronic device to increase the available optical space and achieve high-quality shooting. When shooting is not needed, the aforementioned structure of the camera retracts into the electronic device to prevent the camera from protruding and affecting the appearance of the electronic device. The camera's outer cover has protective exterior parts that rise and fall accordingly when the camera is raised or lowered.

[0005] In the existing technology, when the camera is large in size, it is necessary to provide a new lifting component. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this application is to provide a lifting component, a camera device, and an electronic device.

[0007] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a lifting assembly, including a base, a lifting member, an outer appearance member, and a driving assembly; the lifting member has a light-transmitting portion, the lifting member is mounted on the base, and the lifting member is capable of moving up and down relative to the base along a first direction; the outer appearance member is mounted on the base and arranged along a second direction with the lifting member, the second direction being different from the first direction, the light-transmitting portion being exposed relative to the lifting member, the outer appearance member including a first end and a second end disposed opposite to each other, the second end of the outer appearance member being close to the lifting member relative to the first end, one end of the first end and the second end of the outer appearance member being rotatably connected to the base, and the other end being slidably connected to the lifting member; the driving assembly is mounted on the base and connected to the lifting member, for driving the lifting member to move up and down relative to the base.

[0008] For example, the lifting component can be a cover structure.

[0009] For example, the exterior component can be a cover structure.

[0010] For example, the second direction can be perpendicular to the first direction.

[0011] In this embodiment, the lifting component can be driven by the driving component to achieve lifting and lowering relative to the base along a first direction. When the lifting component is not raised, the lifting component as a whole has a small height dimension. When the lifting component is raised, the height dimension of the lifting component is increased, thereby increasing the optical space covered inside the lifting component.

[0012] Furthermore, the exterior component can be driven by the lifting motion of the lifting component to achieve synchronous flipping. When the exterior component is not flipped up, it is laid flat, and the exterior component and the lifting component are side by side and adjacent. When the exterior component is flipped up, it is located on one side of the lifting component in the second direction. Since the exterior component is connected to the lifting component, it is equivalent to forming a side wall of one side of the lifting component, thereby shielding and isolating the space inside the lifting component. The side wall adjacent to the lifting component and the exterior component can be omitted or have a low height, which is beneficial to keep the height of the lifting component low and to install a lifting component with a smaller area.

[0013] When the lifting component is used in a periscope camera device, the periscope camera module is relatively long. However, the size of the lifting component in this embodiment can be smaller than the size of the camera module, without needing to be larger than the camera module to cover it. Therefore, the lifting component in this embodiment is highly adaptable to periscope camera devices.

[0014] In some embodiments, the first end of the exterior component is rotatably connected to the base, and the second end of the exterior component is slidably connected to the lifting component.

[0015] In this embodiment, when the lifting member moves up and down, the lifting member transmits the driving force to the appearance member, and the lifting member drives the second end of the appearance member to rotate around the first end, that is, the appearance member flips around the base; and, during the flipping process of the appearance member, the appearance member both rotates and slides relative to the lifting member.

[0016] In some embodiments, the first end of the appearance component is provided with a first rotating groove, the base has a first rotating block, both the first rotating groove and the first rotating block are arc-shaped, the first rotating block is installed in the first rotating groove and can slide in the first rotating groove.

[0017] In this embodiment, since both the first rotating block and the first rotating groove are arc-shaped blocks, the axis of rotation of the first rotating block relative to the base is a virtual axis, which can be located outside the structure of the base or the exterior component. Therefore, the positions of the first rotating block and the first rotating groove can be flexibly set, making reasonable use of the space of the lifting assembly.

[0018] In some embodiments, the second end of the appearance component has a first sliding block, the lifting component has a first sliding groove, the first sliding groove extends along a second direction, the first sliding block is installed in the first sliding groove and can slide within the first sliding groove.

[0019] In this embodiment, the second end of the exterior component is slidably connected to the lifting component by the first sliding block and the first sliding groove. When the exterior component is flipped, the second end of the exterior component moves relative to the lifting component in the first direction, and the first end of the exterior component only rotates relative to the base. The movement of the exterior component as a whole relative to the base is relatively simple, and the lifting component has high reliability.

[0020] In some embodiments, the base has a first receiving hole, a portion of the structure of the exterior component is located in the first receiving hole and exposed, a portion of the structure of the lifting component is located in the first receiving hole, and the light-transmitting portion is exposed through the first receiving hole.

[0021] In this embodiment, at least part of the structure of both the exterior component and the lifting component is located in the first receiving hole and exposed, which is equivalent to the base surrounding the exterior component and the lifting component. The base can protect the exterior component and the lifting component and better support the exterior component and the lifting component. At the same time, the base will not affect the movement of the exterior component and the lifting component, and the structural arrangement of the lifting component is more reasonable.

[0022] In some embodiments, the lifting member has a first guide groove, the base has a first guide block, the first guide groove extends along a first direction, the first guide block is located in the first guide groove, and can slide within the first guide groove.

[0023] In this embodiment, the first guide block and the first guide groove constitute a guide structure. By setting the guide structure, the position of the lifting component relative to the base can be constrained, and the movement direction of the lifting component can also be constrained, so that the lifting movement of the lifting component is more stable.

[0024] In some embodiments, the base includes a first housing and a second housing, the second housing being located inside the first housing, the inner side of the second housing forming a receiving space, a receiving cavity being formed between the first housing and the second housing, and the drive assembly being at least partially located in the receiving cavity.

[0025] In this embodiment, the receiving cavity can protect the linkage assembly, prevent the linkage assembly from colliding with other components, make the overall structure of the lifting assembly more regular, and make the layout of each component of the lifting assembly more reasonable.

[0026] In some embodiments, the lifting member includes a top and a side, the side of the lifting member surrounding and fixedly connected to the top, and a light-transmitting portion formed on the top of the lifting member; the exterior member includes a top and a side, the side of the exterior member being fixedly connected to the edge of the top; and a receiving cavity is used to receive the side of the lifting member and the side of the exterior member.

[0027] In this embodiment, the receiving cavity is an independent cavity, which isolates the side of the lifting component from the receiving space of the base; the receiving cavity provides a placement space for the side of the lifting component and can also protect the lifting component, thereby improving the reliability and impact resistance of the lifting assembly.

[0028] In some embodiments, the lifting assembly further includes a flexible element, which is a cylindrical structure and has a first opening and a second opening opposite each other. The base has a first light-transmitting opening, and the lifting assembly has a second light-transmitting opening. The first opening is connected to the first light-transmitting opening, and the second opening is connected to the second light-transmitting opening. In a first direction, the light-transmitting part at least partially covers the first light-transmitting opening and the second light-transmitting opening.

[0029] In this embodiment, since the flexible component can deform and based on the setting of the flexible component, the flexible component isolates the accommodating space of the base from the external space. When light enters the accommodating space from the light-transmitting part, the external environment will not affect the light path, which is beneficial to improving the protection capability of the lifting component in the camera device, thereby improving the reliability of the camera device.

[0030] In addition, since the light-transmitting part can at least partially cover the first and second light-transmitting openings, light can easily enter the inner side of the lifting component and the accommodating space of the base directly. The optical space formed inside the lifting component is large, which is beneficial to improving the applicability of the lifting component.

[0031] In some embodiments, the lifting assembly has an raised state and a retracted state; when the lifting assembly is in the raised state, the top surface of the lifting member is at a first distance from the top surface of the base, and the top surface of the exterior member is at a first angle from the top surface of the base; when the lifting assembly is in the retracted state, the top surface of the lifting member is at a second distance from the top surface of the base, and the top surface of the exterior member is at a second angle from the top surface of the base, wherein the second distance is less than the first distance and the second angle is less than the first angle.

[0032] In this embodiment, by switching between the raised and retracted states of the lifting component, the lifting component occupies a small space when not in use and can form a large internal optical space when in use, making the lifting component highly adaptable.

[0033] In some embodiments, the drive assembly includes a linkage assembly and a power assembly. The linkage assembly connects the base and the lifting member, and the power assembly is drively connected to the linkage assembly to drive the lifting member to move up and down via the linkage assembly.

[0034] In some embodiments, the linkage assembly includes a first support arm and a second support arm; the first support arm includes a first end and a second end, the first end of the first support arm is rotatably connected to a base, and the second end of the first support arm is slidably connected to a lifting member; the second support arm includes a first end and a second end, the first end of the second support arm is rotatably connected to a base, and the second end of the second support arm is slidably connected to a lifting member.

[0035] In this embodiment, the linkage assembly is used to drive the lifting component to move up and down. The structure of the linkage assembly is relatively flexible and can be easily set according to the shape of the lifting component, thereby improving the compactness of the lifting assembly and facilitating the miniaturization of the lifting assembly.

[0036] Furthermore, the first and second support arms work together to support the lifting component and drive its movement. The two support structures provide more stable support for the lifting component and make the force on the lifting component more balanced, which is conducive to the smooth lifting of the lifting component and thus improves the reliability of the lifting assembly.

[0037] In some embodiments, the first support arm is parallel to the second support arm; the linkage assembly further includes a first linkage arm, the first linkage arm includes a first end and a second end, the first support arm further includes a linkage part, the linkage part of the first support arm is fixed to the second end, the second support arm further includes a linkage part, the linkage part of the second support arm is fixed to the second end; the first end of the first linkage arm is rotatably connected to the linkage part of the first support arm, and the second end of the first linkage arm is rotatably connected to the linkage part of the second support arm.

[0038] In this embodiment, since the first linkage arm connects the first support arm and the second support arm, the first support arm and the second support arm can rotate synchronously, so that both the first support arm and the second support arm serve as driving components of the lifting member, and the first support arm and the second support arm can move synchronously.

[0039] In some embodiments, the drive component of the power assembly forms a crank, and the drive part of the drive component is rotatably connected to the first linkage arm.

[0040] In this embodiment, since the driving component forms a crank, when the driving component rotates, the driving part moves around the axis in an arc, thereby driving the first linkage arm to move. Referring to the figure, when the first linkage arm moves, it can drive the first support arm and the second support arm to rotate, thereby driving the lifting component to rise and the exterior component to flip. Therefore, in this example, by driving the first linkage arm through the power component, the first support arm and the second support arm can be driven to move synchronously, making the movements of the first support arm and the second support arm more synchronized and improving the driving effect on the lifting component.

[0041] In some embodiments, the linkage assembly further includes a third support arm and a fourth support arm; the third support arm includes a first end and a second end, the first end of the third support arm is rotatably connected to a base, and the second end of the third support arm is slidably connected to a lifting member; the fourth support arm includes a first end and a second end, the first end of the fourth support arm is rotatably connected to a base, and the second end of the fourth support arm is slidably connected to a lifting member.

[0042] In this embodiment, the first support arm and the second support arm can form a set of structures that support and drive the lifting component, and the third support arm and the fourth support arm can form a set of structures that support and drive the lifting component. The two sets of structures support and drive different sides of the lifting component, which is more compatible with the shape of the lifting component cover structure, improves the reliability of the lifting component, and also improves the impact resistance of the lifting component.

[0043] In some implementations, the third support arm and the first support arm are integrally formed structural components.

[0044] In this embodiment, the first support arm and the third support arm can move synchronously, and the third support arm can also serve as a driving component for the lifting component. Furthermore, the first support arm and the third support arm have higher rigidity and stronger support for the lifting component.

[0045] In some embodiments, the power assembly includes a power unit, a driven member, and a driving member; the output end of the power unit is a worm gear, the driven member is a worm wheel, the output end of the power unit meshes with the driven member, the driving member is fixedly connected to the driven member and coaxially arranged, and the driving member is drively connected to the linkage assembly.

[0046] In this embodiment, the transmission component of the power unit includes a worm gear structure. The power of the power unit can only be transmitted to the worm gear in one direction. Therefore, after the power assembly drives the lifting component to a certain height, it can keep the lifting component at the corresponding height, making the state of the lifting component and the appearance component more stable.

[0047] In some implementations, the power assembly also includes an elastic element that elastically connects the worm gear and the drive element.

[0048] In this embodiment, when the lifting component or the exterior component is subjected to an external impact while in the raised state, the lifting component can retract. At this time, on the one hand, the lifting component and the exterior component can be buffered to avoid excessive impact; on the other hand, the transmission structure of the power assembly can be buffered to avoid damage to the power unit, driven components and other parts due to excessive external impact.

[0049] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide a lifting assembly, including a base, a lifting member, a linkage assembly, and a power assembly; the lifting member has a light-transmitting portion, the lifting member is slidably connected to the base, and the lifting member can rise and fall relative to the base in a first direction; the linkage assembly includes a first support arm and a second support arm; the first support arm includes a first end and a second end, the first end of the first support arm is rotatably connected to the base, and the second end of the first support arm is slidably connected to the lifting member; the second support arm includes a first end and a second end, the first end of the second support arm is rotatably connected to the base, and the second end of the second support arm is slidably connected to the lifting member; the power assembly is driven to connect the first support arm and / or the second support arm to drive the lifting member to rise and fall.

[0050] In this embodiment, the lifting component is slidably connected to the base, thereby guiding the movement of the lifting component. The first support arm and the second support arm jointly support the lifting component and drive its lifting movement. The lifting assembly in this embodiment has a simple structure, the linkage assembly occupies little space, the lifting assembly has high space utilization, and the structure is compact.

[0051] In some embodiments, the first support arm is parallel to the second support arm; the linkage assembly further includes a first linkage arm, the first linkage arm includes a first end and a second end, the first support arm further includes a linkage part, the linkage part of the first support arm is fixed to the second end, the second support arm further includes a linkage part, the linkage part of the second support arm is fixed to the second end; the first end of the first linkage arm is rotatably connected to the linkage part of the first support arm, and the second end of the first linkage arm is rotatably connected to the linkage part of the second support arm.

[0052] In this embodiment, since the first linkage arm connects the first support arm and the second support arm, the first support arm and the second support arm can rotate synchronously, so that both the first support arm and the second support arm serve as driving components of the lifting member, and the first support arm and the second support arm can move synchronously.

[0053] In some embodiments, the drive component of the power assembly forms a crank, and the drive part of the drive component is rotatably connected to the first linkage arm.

[0054] In this embodiment, since the driving component forms a crank, when the driving component rotates, the driving part moves around the axis in an arc, thereby driving the first linkage arm to move. Referring to the figure, when the first linkage arm moves, it can drive the first support arm and the second support arm to rotate, thereby driving the lifting component to rise and the exterior component to flip. Therefore, in this example, by driving the first linkage arm through the power component, the first support arm and the second support arm can be driven to move synchronously, making the movements of the first support arm and the second support arm more synchronized and improving the driving effect on the lifting component.

[0055] In some embodiments, the linkage assembly further includes a third support arm and a fourth support arm; the third support arm includes a first end and a second end, the first end of the third support arm is rotatably connected to a base, and the second end of the third support arm is slidably connected to a lifting member; the fourth support arm includes a first end and a second end, the first end of the fourth support arm is rotatably connected to a base, and the second end of the fourth support arm is slidably connected to a lifting member.

[0056] In this embodiment, the first support arm and the second support arm can form a set of structures that support and drive the lifting component, and the third support arm and the fourth support arm can form a set of structures that support and drive the lifting component. The two sets of structures support and drive different sides of the lifting component, which is more compatible with the shape of the lifting component cover structure, improves the reliability of the lifting component, and also improves the impact resistance of the lifting component.

[0057] In some implementations, the third support arm and the first support arm are integrally formed structural components.

[0058] In this embodiment, the first support arm and the third support arm can move synchronously, and the third support arm can also serve as a driving component for the lifting component. Furthermore, the first support arm and the third support arm have higher rigidity and stronger support for the lifting component.

[0059] In some embodiments, the power assembly includes a power unit, a driven member, and a driving member; the output end of the power unit is a worm gear, the driven member is a worm wheel, the output end of the power unit meshes with the driven member, the driving member is fixedly connected to the driven member and coaxially arranged, and the driving member is drively connected to the linkage assembly.

[0060] In this embodiment, the transmission component of the power unit includes a worm gear structure. The power of the power unit can only be transmitted to the worm gear in one direction. Therefore, after the power assembly drives the lifting component to a certain height, it can keep the lifting component at the corresponding height, making the state of the lifting component and the appearance component more stable.

[0061] Thirdly, embodiments of this application provide a camera device, including a camera module and a lifting assembly as provided in any of the embodiments of the first and second aspects, wherein at least a portion of the structure of the camera module is located inside the lifting member of the lifting assembly.

[0062] In this embodiment, the lifting component provides optical space for the camera module to capture images by lifting and the outer appearance component by flipping, and also shields the structure of the camera module to protect it. Furthermore, compared to the prior art where the lifting component covers the entire camera module, the lifting component in this embodiment does not need to cover the entire camera module, which is conducive to the miniaturization design of the lifting component and makes it easier to achieve a thinner design for the camera device.

[0063] In some embodiments, the camera module is a periscope camera, which has a light-inlet section and a photosensitive element. In the direction of the central axis of the light-inlet section, a lifting member covers the light-inlet section, and an outer member at least partially covers the photosensitive element.

[0064] In this embodiment, the camera module is relatively long and the area of ​​the light-receiving part is small, while the lifting component is also relatively long and the area of ​​the lifting component can be set to be relatively small. This makes it highly adaptable to periscope cameras. When the camera device is applied to electronic devices, the area of ​​the lifting component protruding relative to the electronic device is relatively small when it is raised, which helps to improve the reliability of the lifting and also enhances the user experience.

[0065] Fourthly, embodiments of this application provide an electronic device, which includes a housing and a camera device as provided in the third aspect, the camera device being mounted on the housing.

[0066] In this embodiment, the electronic device is easy to design into a thin profile, resulting in a good user experience.

[0067] Fifthly, embodiments of this application provide an electronic device, which includes a housing, a camera module, and a lifting assembly as provided in any of the embodiments of the first aspect. At least a portion of the structure of the camera module is located inside the lifting member of the lifting assembly. The outer part of the lifting assembly has a first surface, and the housing has a second surface. The first surface is flush with the second surface.

[0068] In this embodiment, when the lifting component is in the retracted state, the first surface of the appearance component can be flush with the second surface of the housing, making the outer surface of the electronic device smoother and providing a better user experience.

[0098] The embodiments of this application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0099] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, "joining" can be a detachable connection or a non-detachable connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be an electrical connection or a mechanical connection. "Fixed connection" refers to a connection where the relative positional relationship remains unchanged after connection. "Movable connection" refers to a connection where the relative positional relationship can change after connection. "Rotary connection" refers to a connection where the relative positional relationship can change. "Sliding connection" refers to a connection where the relative positional relationship can change. Furthermore, the integrated structure obtained by a one-piece molding process means that during the formation of one of the two components, that component is connected to the other component without requiring further processing (such as bonding, welding, snap-fit ​​connections, or screw connections) to connect the two components. Components A and B can be arranged relative to each other such that component A is projected along the target direction to obtain projection C, and component B is projected along the target direction to obtain projection D, with projection C and projection D at least largely overlapping. In some embodiments, the majority overlap can be any of the following: projection C is entirely within projection D; or projection D is entirely within projection C; or projection C and projection D intersect each other, and the intersection area of ​​projection C and projection D accounts for more than 50% of projection C or projection D.

[0100] The directional terms mentioned in the embodiments of this application, such as "top," "bottom," "inner," "outer," "upper," and "lower," are only for reference to the directions in the accompanying drawings. Therefore, the directional terms used are for better and clearer explanation and understanding of the embodiments of this application, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the embodiments of this application. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0101] The terms "first," "second," etc., used in the specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and not to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such use of data can be interchanged where appropriate so that embodiments of this application can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein, and the objects distinguished by "first," "second," etc., are generally of the same class and the number of objects is not limited; for example, a first object can be one or more. Furthermore, in the specification and claims, "and / or" indicates at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the preceding and following objects are in an "or" relationship. "Multiple" means at least two.

[0102] Furthermore, the limitations on relative positional relationships mentioned in the embodiments of this application, such as parallelism and perpendicularity, are all relative to the current technological level and are not absolutely strict limitations. Slight deviations are allowed; approximations of parallelism or perpendicularity are acceptable. For example, "A and B are parallel" means that A and B are parallel or approximately parallel, and the angle between A and B can be between 0 and 10 degrees. Similarly, "A and B are perpendicular" means that A and B are perpendicular or approximately perpendicular, and the angle between A and B can be between 80 and 100 degrees.

In the embodiment shown in Figure 1, a mobile phone is used as an example for description. Of course, other types of electronic devices 1000 can also adopt a similar structure, which will not be elaborated further below.

[0105] It is understood that Figures 1 and 2 only schematically show some of the components included in the electronic device 1000. The actual shape, size, location and construction of these components are not limited by Figures 1 and 2. The electronic device 1000 may also include more or fewer components than those in Figures 1 and 2.

[0106] In some embodiments, the electronic device 1000 may include a camera device 100, a screen 200, and a housing 300. The screen 200 is used to display images, videos, etc. The screen 200 may include a light-transmitting panel 2001 and a display screen 2002. The light-transmitting panel 2001 and the display screen 2002 are stacked and fixedly connected. The light-transmitting panel 2001 mainly serves to protect the display screen 2002 from dust. The material of the light-transmitting panel 2001 includes, but is not limited to, glass. The display screen 2002 may be a flexible display screen or a rigid display screen. For example, the display screen 2002 can be an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display screen, an active-matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) display screen, a mini organic light-emitting diode (MLED) display screen, a micro organic light-emitting diode (MOLED) display screen, a quantum dot light-emitting diode (QLED) display screen, a liquid crystal display (LCD), etc.

[0107] For example, the housing 300 is used to protect the internal electronic components of the electronic device 1000. The housing 300 may include a cover plate 3001, a frame 3002, and a camera trim 3003. The cover plate 3001 is located on the side of the display screen 2002 away from the light-transmitting panel 2001, and is stacked with the light-transmitting panel 2001 and the display screen 2002. The frame 3002 is fixed to the cover plate 3001. For example, the frame 3002 can be fixedly connected to the cover plate 3001 by adhesive. The frame 3002 may also be integrally formed with the cover plate 3001, that is, the frame 3002 and the cover plate 3001 are a single structure. The frame 3002 is located between the cover plate 3001 and the light-transmitting panel 2001. The light-transmitting panel 2001 can be fixed to the frame 3002 by adhesive. The light-transmitting panel 2001, the cover plate 3001, and the frame 3002 form an internal accommodating space for the electronic device 1000. The internal space houses the display screen 2002. The cover plate 3001 can be made of materials such as metal, plastic, or glass. The cover plate 3001 can be a single-material panel or a panel structure composed of multiple materials and panels. The cover plate 3001 has a mounting opening, and the camera decorative piece 3003 covers and is fixed to the mounting opening.

[0108] For example, the camera device 100 is used to capture photos / videos. For example, the camera device 100 is mounted within a housing 300, located within the internal accommodating space of the electronic device 1000. The camera device 100 can be used as a rear-facing camera. For example, the light-incident surface of the camera device 100 faces the camera trim 3003. The camera trim 3003 is used to protect the camera device 100.

[0109] In some embodiments, the camera trim 3003 protrudes from the side of the cover plate 3001 away from the light-transmitting panel 2001. This increases the mounting space of the camera device 100 in the thickness direction of the electronic device 1000. In other embodiments, the camera trim 3003 may be flush with the cover plate 3001 or recessed into the internal accommodating space of the electronic device 1000.

[0110] The camera decorative element 3003 has a through hole 3004. The through hole 3004 allows light from the scene to enter the light-receiving surface of the camera device 100. In some other embodiments, the electronic device 1000 may not include the camera decorative element 3003. In this case, the cover plate 3001 no longer has a mounting opening, but the through hole 3004 is provided on the cover plate 3001, allowing light from the scene to enter the light-receiving surface of the camera device 100.

[0111] In some embodiments, the camera device 100 may also be used as a front-facing camera. For example, the light-incident surface of the camera device 100 faces the light-transmitting panel 2001. The display screen 2002 is provided with a light path avoidance area. This light path avoidance area allows light from the scene to pass through the light-transmitting panel 2001 and then enter the light-incident surface of the camera device 100. In some embodiments, the electronic device 1000 may also include one or more other camera modules 20 (not shown in the figures), which are not strictly limited in this application.

[0112] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG2, the electronic device 1000 may further include a circuit board 400 and an image processor 500. The circuit board 400 and the image processor 500 are located within the internal accommodating space of the electronic device 1000. The image processor 500 is fixed to and electrically connected to the circuit board 400. The image processor 500 is communicatively connected to the camera device 100. The image processor 500 is used to acquire image data from the camera device 100 and process the image data. The communication connection between the camera device 100 and the image processor 500 may include data transmission via electrical connections such as wiring, or data transmission may be achieved through coupling or other methods. It is understood that the camera device 100 and the image processor 500 may also achieve a communication connection through other methods capable of data transmission.

[0113] In some embodiments, the electronic device 1000 may further include an analog-to-digital converter (also known as an A / D converter, not shown in the figure). The analog-to-digital converter is connected between the camera device 100 and the image processor 500. The analog-to-digital converter is used to convert the signal generated by the camera device 100 into a digital image signal and transmit it to the image processor 500, whereby the image processor 500 processes the digital image signal and finally displays the image or video on the screen 200.

[0114] In some embodiments, the electronic device 1000 may further include a memory (not shown in the figure), which is communicatively connected to the image processor 500. The image processor 500 processes the digital image signal and then transmits the image to the memory, so that the image can be retrieved from the memory and displayed on the screen 200 at any time when it is needed to view the image later. In some embodiments, the image processor 500 may also compress the processed digital image signal before storing it in the memory to save memory space.

[0115] In some other embodiments, the electronic device 1000 may also not include the screen 200.

[0116] It is understood that the mounting position of the camera device 100 in the electronic device 1000 of the embodiments shown in Figures 1 and 2 is merely illustrative, and this application does not strictly limit the mounting position of the camera device 100. In some other embodiments, the camera device 100 may also be mounted in other locations on the electronic device 1000, for example, the camera device 100 may be mounted in the upper middle or upper right corner of the back of the electronic device 1000. In some other embodiments, the electronic device 1000 may include a terminal body and an auxiliary component that can rotate, move, or be detached relative to the terminal body, and the camera device 100 may also be mounted on the auxiliary component.

[0117] Please refer to Figures 3 to 5. Figure 3 is a structural schematic diagram of a portion of the camera device 100 in the electronic device 1000 shown in Figure 1. Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of the internal structure of the camera device 100 in some embodiments of the electronic device 1000 shown in Figure 1. Figure 5 is a structural schematic diagram of the camera device 100 in some usage states shown in Figure 4.

[0118] In some embodiments, the camera device 100 may include a lifting assembly 10 and a camera module 20. The lifting assembly 10 has a lifting member 2 capable of lifting and lowering and an exterior member 3 capable of flipping. The lifting member 2 allows light to pass through, and the camera module 20 can be installed in the internal space of the lifting assembly 10. The camera module 20 may include a lens 201 and a photosensitive element 202, which are spaced apart.

[0119] In this embodiment, the lifting member 2 of the lifting assembly 10 can be raised to an extended position through the through hole 3004 of the camera decorative member 3003, thereby increasing the height of the internal space of the lifting assembly 10. This allows the lens 201 or a portion of the lens 201 of the camera module 20 to move away from the photosensitive element 202, increasing the distance between the lens 201 or a portion of the lens 201 and the photosensitive element 202, thus increasing the focal length for shooting. This enables the electronic device 1000 to achieve telephoto shooting, thereby improving the shooting effect. Furthermore, since the lifting member 2 can extend through the through hole 3004, the light-receiving surface of the camera device 100 protrudes from the camera decorative member 3003 and the cover plate 3001, reducing light obstruction and improving the amount of light entering the camera device 100, thus improving the image quality. The top side of the lifting member 2 is translucent, serving as the light-receiving surface of the camera device 100.

[0120] The outer component 3 of the lifting assembly 10 and the lifting component 2 can both be exposed outside the housing 300 of the electronic device 1000. During the process of the lifting component 2 rising to the extended position, the outer component 3 can rotate relative to the housing 300 at a certain angle. For example, one end of the outer component 3 connected to the lifting component 2 can rotate relative to the other end of the outer component 3, thereby causing the entire outer component 3 to rotate relative to the housing 300. By rotating the outer component 3, part of the sidewall of the lifting component 2 can be shielded, and the outer component 3 can also shield part of the structure of the camera module 20. The lifting component 2 does not need to shield the entire camera module 20, which helps to reduce the size of the lifting component 2.

[0121] When the lifting component 2 extends, the lifting assembly 10 is in the raised state, and the exterior component 3 is in the flipped-up state.

[0122] After the shooting is completed, the lifting component 2 can be lowered back to the initial position, reducing the overall thickness of the camera device 100 and allowing more of the lifting component 2 to be located in the internal space of the lifting assembly 10, which is beneficial to protecting the lifting component 2; the exterior component 3 can be flipped back to the initial position, making the structure of the electronic device 1000 more regular.

[0123] When the lifting component 2 retracts, the lifting assembly 10 is in a retracted state, and the exterior component 3 is in a flattened state.

[0124] In some embodiments, the exterior component 3 may be flush with the housing 300.

[0125] For example, when the lifting member 2 is in the retracted state, the surface of the appearance member 3 can be flush with the surface of the housing 300 facing away from the screen 200. For example, the surface of the appearance member 3 is flat, and at least one plane of the camera decorative member 3003 is coplanar with the surface of the appearance member 3.

[0126] For ease of description, the camera device 100 is defined to have a length direction, a width direction, and a thickness direction. The length direction of the camera module is parallel to the X direction, the width direction is parallel to the Y direction, and the thickness direction is parallel to the Z direction. When the lifting assembly 10 is installed in the electronic device 1000 along with the camera device 100, the height direction of the lifting assembly 10 can be parallel to the thickness direction of the electronic device, that is, perpendicular to the cover plate 3001 and the screen 200 of the electronic device 1000. The light-incident side (i.e., the side used for light intake) of the lifting assembly 10 is the top side of the lifting assembly 10, and the bottom side of the lifting assembly 10 is opposite to the top side. When the camera device 100 is used as a rear camera, the side of the lifting assembly 10 closest to the cover plate 3001 is its top side, and the side closest to the screen 200 is its bottom side. In the following descriptions, the part of the lifting assembly 10 and its components and structures closest to the light-incident side is referred to as the "top," and the part furthest from the light-incident side is referred to as the "bottom." In the lifting assembly 10 and its components and structures, the side housed within the outer casing 300 is designated as the "inner side," and the side exposed outside the outer casing 300 is designated as the "outer side." In other embodiments, the coordinate system of the lifting assembly 10 can be flexibly configured according to specific practical needs.

[0127] Please refer to Figures 6 to 8. Figure 6 is a structural schematic diagram of the lifting component 10 shown in Figure 4 in some embodiments in a raised state. Figure 7 is a structural schematic diagram of the lifting component 10 shown in Figure 6 in a retracted state. Figure 8 is an exploded structural schematic diagram of the lifting component 10 shown in Figure 6 in some embodiments.

[0128] In some embodiments, the lifting assembly 10 may include a base 1, a lifting element 2, an exterior element 3, and a drive assembly 4.

[0129] For example, the base 1 can be located at the bottom of the lifting assembly 10. The base 1 can serve as a mounting structure and load-bearing structure for other components of the lifting assembly 10.

[0130] The base 1 can be a roughly rectangular cover structure. In other embodiments, the base 1 can also be a thin-shell structure; or, the base 1 can also be a plate structure; or other forms of structure, which can be set according to requirements. This embodiment does not specifically limit the shape of the base 1. The base 1 can be a one-piece structure, or the base 1 can be assembled from multiple parts. This embodiment does not specifically limit the shape.

[0131] For example, the lifting member 2 can be movably connected to the drive assembly 4 and the base 1. The lifting member 2 can move up and down relative to the base 1 under the drive of the drive assembly 4. For example, the lifting member 2 can move up and down in the thickness direction (e.g., the Z direction) of the lifting assembly 10. The lifting member 2 can be generally shaped like a cover, with a cover space formed inside to accommodate other components.

[0132] For example, the outer casing 3 can be movably connected to the base 1 and the lifting component 2. The outer casing 3 can be located approximately on the top side of the lifting assembly 10. The outer casing 3 can be generally a cover structure, enclosing a cover space to accommodate other components. The outer casing 3 can be a thin-shell structure. The outer casing 3 can be a one-piece structural component. In some other examples, the outer casing 3 can also be a separate structural component. It is understood that the outer casing 3 can move relative to the base 1 and the lifting component 2.

[0133] For example, the drive assembly 4 can be mounted on the base 1. The drive assembly 4 can be connected to the lifting member 2, transmitting power to the lifting member 2 and causing it to perform corresponding lifting movements. For example, the drive assembly 4 can be driven by a linkage mechanism, comprising multiple links capable of deformation movement. Alternatively, the drive assembly 4 can also be a screw-nut mechanism, a gear drive mechanism, a crank-connecting rod mechanism, or a linear motor. This example does not limit the specific structure of the drive assembly 4. In some examples, the drive assembly 4 may include a motor or other power components, but is not limited to this.

[0134] As shown in Figure 6, the lifting assembly 10 can be in the raised state. At this time, the lifting component 2 can extend relative to the base 1, the outer component 3 can flip up relative to the base 1, and the lifting component 2 is supported by the drive assembly 4. The space on the bottom side of the lifting component 2 and the outer component 3 is relatively large, which makes it easy to accommodate other components of electronic devices (such as camera modules).

[0135] As shown in Figure 7, the lifting assembly 10 can be in a retracted state. At this time, the lifting component 2 can retract relative to the base 1, the outer component 3 can be flattened relative to the base 1, at least part of the structure of the lifting component 2 is accommodated by the base 1, the height of the lifting component 2 is reduced, and thus the overall thickness of the lifting assembly 10 is thinner and occupies less thickness space. Therefore, when the lifting assembly 10 is applied to electronic devices, it is beneficial to make the overall thickness of the electronic devices thinner, which is conducive to the thin design of electronic devices.

[0136] The lifting assembly 10 can switch between a raised state and a retracted state. For example, the lifting assembly 10 can switch from the retracted state in Figure 7 to the raised state in Figure 6. Specifically, the driving assembly 4 drives the lifting member 2 to move, thereby raising the lifting member 2 relative to the base 1, and the lifting member 2 causes the outer appearance member 3 to flip up. It can be understood that the lifting assembly 10 can switch from the raised state in Figure 6 to the retracted state in Figure 7, and this movement process can be roughly the opposite of the process of the lifting assembly 10 changing from the retracted state to the raised state.

[0137] In some embodiments, the drive assembly 4 may include a linkage assembly 41 and a power assembly 42. The power assembly 42 may be driveably connected to the linkage assembly 41.

[0138] For example, the linkage assembly 41 may include multiple links that can be interconnected to form a deformable mechanism. The linkage assembly 41 can connect the base 1 and the lifting member 2, and is used to transmit the power output from the power assembly 42 to the lifting member 2, thereby driving the lifting member 2 to move; the linkage assembly 41 can also be used to support the lifting member 2.

[0139] For example, the power assembly 42 can output torque and can serve as a power source for the lifting assembly 10. The power assembly 42 can output driving force to the linkage assembly 41. For instance, the power assembly 42 can output power by being energized. The power assembly 42 can be mounted on the base 1. The power assembly 42 can be housed inside the base 1, and the base 1 provides mounting, fixation, and protection for the power assembly 42.

[0140] In some other embodiments, the drive assembly 4 may not include the power assembly 42. In this case, the movement of the lifting assembly 10 can be powered manually or by an external power source.

[0141] Please refer to Figures 9 and 10. Figure 9 is an exploded structural diagram of the base 1 shown in Figure 8 in some embodiments, and Figure 10 is a structural diagram of the base 1 shown in Figure 9 in some embodiments.

[0142] In some embodiments, the base 1 may include a first housing 11 and a second housing 12.

[0143] For example, the first housing 11 may be a generally rectangular cylindrical structure. For instance, the first housing 11 may include four sidewalls that can enclose and form a space in the middle, wherein three of the sidewalls may be plate-shaped sidewalls.

[0144] For example, the second housing 12 can be generally a cover structure. The general shape of the first housing 11 can be the same as the general shape of the second housing 12. The second housing 12 can be a thin-shell-like structural member. The second housing 12 can also enclose a central space. The second housing 12 may include a main housing 121 and a skirt 122, with the main housing 121 fixedly connected to the skirt 122. The skirt 122 is located at the bottom edge of the main housing 121 and protrudes towards the outer periphery of the main housing 121. The second housing 12 can be a one-piece structural member.

[0145] For example, the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 can be fixedly connected. The second housing 12 can be located inside the first housing 11, forming a receiving space 1a inside the second housing 12, and a receiving cavity 1b is formed between the first housing 11 and the second housing 12. For example, the main housing 121 of the second housing 12 is disposed opposite to the first housing 11. It can be understood that the skirt 122 of the second housing 12 can be mated with and fixedly connected to the bottom of the first housing 11, so that the space between the main housing 121 of the second housing 12 and the first housing 11 forms the receiving cavity 1b. The receiving space 1a can be the optical space of the camera device, a space for light propagation. The receiving cavity 1b can be a semi-open cavity with an open top and a closed bottom.

[0146] In some embodiments, the base 1 may have a block structure, a hole structure, or a groove structure, etc., to accommodate or support other components.

[0147] For example, the base 1 may have a first rotating block 123. The first rotating block 123 may be an arc-shaped block. The first rotating block 123 may be formed in the second housing 12 and may protrude relative to the main housing 121. The first rotating block 123 may be located at an end of the second housing 12.

[0148] For example, the base 1 may have a first connecting hole 124. The first connecting hole 124 may be a cylindrical hole. The axis of the first connecting hole 124 may be parallel to the Y direction. For instance, the second housing 12 may have a first protrusion 125, and the first connecting hole 124 may be formed in and pass through the first protrusion 125. The first connecting hole 124 may be located at the end of the second housing 12 away from the first rotating block 123.

[0149] For example, the base 1 may have a first guide block 126. The first guide block 126 may be generally rectangular. The first guide block 126 may be formed in the second housing 12 and may protrude relative to the main housing 121. The first guide block 126 may be located between the first rotating block 123 and the first connecting hole 124.

[0150] For example, the base 1 may have a first rotating shaft 127. The first rotating shaft 127 may be a cylindrical shaft. The axis of the first rotating shaft 127 may be parallel to the Y direction. The first rotating shaft 127 may be formed in the second housing 12, and the first rotating shaft 127 may protrude relative to the main housing 121. The first rotating shaft 127 may be located between the first guide block 126 and the first connecting hole 124.

[0151] For example, the base 1 may also have a first light-transmitting opening 128. The first light-transmitting opening 128 may be formed in the second housing 12. The first light-transmitting opening 128 may be a generally rectangular opening. The first light-transmitting opening 128 may connect the external space of the base 1 and the inner receiving space 1a.

[0152] For example, the first rotating block 123, the first connecting hole 124, the first guide block 126, and the first rotating shaft 127 can all be located within the receiving cavity 1b.

[0153] For example, the base 1 may further include a second rotating block 129, a second connecting hole 1210, a second guide block 1211, and a second rotating shaft (not shown). The arrangement of the second rotating block 129, the second connecting hole 1210, the second guide block 1211, and the second rotating shaft can correspond to the arrangement of the first rotating block 123, the first connecting hole 124, the first guide block 126, and the first rotating shaft 127, respectively; this example will not elaborate further. The arrangement of the second rotating block 129, the second connecting hole 1210, the second guide block 1211, and the second rotating shaft can be symmetrically arranged with respect to the first rotating block 123, the first connecting hole 124, the first guide block 126, and the first rotating shaft 127, but is not limited to this.

[0154] For example, the base 1 may also have a first receiving hole 111. The first receiving hole 111 may be formed in the first housing 11. The first receiving hole 111 may be surrounded by the side wall of the first housing 11, so the first receiving hole 111 can enclose a large space.

[0155] For example, the base 1 may also have a first mounting groove 112 and a second mounting groove 113. The first mounting groove 112 may be generally semi-circular, and the second mounting groove 113 may be generally cylindrical. The first mounting groove 112 and the second mounting groove 113 may be located on the side wall of the first housing 11. The second mounting groove 113 may connect the external space of the first housing 11 and the space of the first receiving hole 111, and the first mounting groove 112 may communicate with the second mounting groove 113.

[0156] Please refer to Figure 11, which is an exploded structural diagram of the linkage assembly 41 shown in Figure 8 in some embodiments.

[0157] In some embodiments, the linkage assembly 41 may include a first support arm 411, a second support arm 412, a third support arm 413, and a fourth support arm 414.

[0158] For example, the first support arm 411 and the third support arm 413 can be integrally formed structural components, i.e., forming a support member 410. In this case, the support member 410 includes the first support arm 411, the connecting portion 415, and the third support arm 413, with the connecting portion 415 connecting the first support arm 411 and the third support arm 413. In this case, the first support arm 411 and the third support arm 413 have good support performance.

[0159] In some other examples, the first support arm 411 and the third support arm 413 can be separately configured, each being an independent component. This embodiment does not impose specific limitations on this.

[0160] For example, the first support arm 411 may include a first end 4111, a second end 4112, and a linkage part 4113. The first end 4111 of the first support arm 411 is fixedly connected to the second end 4112, and the linkage part 4113 of the first support arm 411 is fixedly connected to the second end 4112.

[0161] The first support arm 411 has a first rotating hole 4114 at its first end 4111, which can be a cylindrical hole. The first rotating hole 4114 can pass through the first end 4111 of the first support arm 411. In addition, the first end 4111 of the first support arm 411 can have a first clearance groove 4115, and the first rotating hole 4114 can connect to the first clearance groove 4115.

[0162] The second end 4112 of the first support arm 411 may be provided with a first slider 4116. The first slider 4116 may protrude toward the third support arm 413. The first slider 4116 may be a cylindrical shaft, an elliptical shaft, etc., and this example does not make a specific limitation.

[0163] The linkage part 4113 of the first support arm 411 may be provided with a first linkage shaft 4117, which may be a cylindrical shaft. The first linkage shaft 4117 may protrude in a direction away from the third support arm 413. The length of the linkage part 4113 of the first support arm 411 may be relatively short; for example, the distance between the axis of the first rotating hole 4114 and the axis of the first slider 4116 may be greater than the distance between the axis of the first rotating hole 4114 and the axis of the first linkage shaft 4117.

[0164] For example, the second support arm 412 may include a first end 4121, a second end 4122, and a linkage part 4123. The first end 4121 of the second support arm 412 is fixedly connected to the second end 4122, and the linkage part 4123 of the second support arm 412 is fixedly connected to the second end 4122.

[0165] The second support arm 412 has a second rotating hole 4124 at its first end 4121. The second rotating hole 4124 can be a cylindrical hole. The second rotating hole 4124 can pass through the first end 4121 of the second support arm 412.

[0166] The second end 4122 of the second support arm 412 may be provided with a second slider 4125. The second slider 4125 may be a cylindrical shaft, an elliptical shaft, etc., and this example does not specify a particular type.

[0167] The linkage part 4123 of the second support arm 412 may be provided with a second linkage shaft 4126, which may be a cylindrical shaft. The length of the linkage part 4123 of the second support arm 412 may be relatively short. For example, the distance between the axis of the second rotating hole 4124 and the axis of the second slider 4125 may be greater than the distance between the axis of the second rotating hole 4124 and the axis of the second linkage shaft 4126.

[0168] The length and shape of the second support arm 412 can be approximately the same as those of the first support arm 411. For example, the distance between the axis of the first rotating hole 4114 and the axis of the first slider 4116 is equal to the distance between the axis of the second rotating hole 4124 and the axis of the second slider 4125. The distance between the axis of the first rotating hole 4114 and the axis of the first linkage shaft 4117 is equal to the distance between the axis of the second rotating hole 4124 and the axis of the second linkage shaft 4126.

[0169] For example, the third support arm 413 may include a first end 4131, a second end 4132, and a linkage part 4133. The first end 4131 of the third support arm 413 is fixedly connected to the second end 4132, and the linkage part 4133 of the third support arm 413 is fixedly connected to the second end 4132. The third support arm 413 may include a third rotating hole 4134, a second clearance groove 4135, a third slider 4136, and a third linkage shaft 4137. The specific structure of the third support arm 413 will not be described in detail in this example; please refer to the relevant settings of the first support arm 411 for details.

[0170] For example, the fourth support arm 414 may include a first end 4141, a second end 4142, and a linkage part 4143. The first end 4141 of the fourth support arm 414 is fixedly connected to the second end 4142, and the linkage part 4143 of the fourth support arm 414 is fixedly connected to the second end 4142. The fourth support arm 414 may include a fourth rotating hole 4144, a fourth slider 4145, and a fourth linkage shaft 4146. The specific structure of the fourth support arm 414 will not be described in detail in this example; please refer to the configuration of the second support arm 412 for details.

[0171] For example, the third support arm 413 and the first support arm 411 can be arranged symmetrically, and the fourth support arm 414 and the second support arm 412 can be arranged symmetrically, but are not limited thereto.

[0172] In some other embodiments, the linkage assembly 41 may not include the third support arm 413 and / or the fourth support arm 414.

[0173] In some embodiments, the linkage assembly 41 may further include a first linkage arm 416 and a second linkage arm 417.

[0174] For example, the first linkage arm 416 may include a first end 4161 and a second end 4162. The first end 4161 of the first linkage arm 416 is fixedly connected to the second end 4162. The first end 4161 of the first linkage arm 416 may have a first through hole 4163, and the second end 4162 of the first linkage arm 416 may have a second through hole 4164. The first through hole 4163 and the second through hole 4164 may each be a cylindrical hole. The first linkage arm 416 may also have a first driving hole 4165, which may be an elliptical cylindrical hole, a racetrack-shaped hole, or an irregularly shaped hole, etc., and this example does not specifically limit the type. The opening directions of the first through hole 4163, the second through hole 4164, and the first driving hole 4165 may be the same.

[0175] For example, the second linkage arm 417 may include a first end 4171 and a second end 4172. The first end 4161 of the first linkage arm 416 is fixedly connected to the second end 4172. The first linkage arm 416 may have a third through hole 4173 and a fourth through hole 4174. The specific structure of the second linkage arm 417 will not be described in detail in this example, but it has a corresponding structure that can be referred to from the first linkage arm 416.

[0176] In some other embodiments, the linkage assembly 41 may not include the first linkage arm 416 and / or the second linkage arm 417.

[0177] Please refer to Figures 11 and 12. Figure 12 is a structural schematic diagram of the linkage assembly 41 shown in Figure 11.

[0178] In some embodiments, in the linkage assembly 41, the first end 4161 of the first linkage arm 416 is rotatably connected to the linkage part 4113 of the first support arm 411, and the second end 4162 of the first linkage arm 416 is rotatably connected to the linkage part 4123 of the second support arm 412.

[0179] For example, the first linkage shaft 4117 of the first support arm 411 can be located in the first through hole 4163 of the first linkage arm 416. The first linkage shaft 4117 can rotate in the first through hole 4163 so that the first support arm 411 and the first linkage arm 416 can rotate relative to each other.

[0180] The second linkage shaft 4126 of the second support arm 412 can be located in the second through hole 4164 of the first linkage arm 416. The second linkage shaft 4126 can rotate in the second through hole 4164 so that the second support arm 412 and the first linkage arm 416 can rotate relative to each other.

[0181] In some embodiments, when the linkage assembly 41 includes a third support arm 413, a fourth support arm 414, and a second linkage arm 417, the second linkage arm 417 is rotatably connected to the third support arm 413, and the first linkage arm 416 is rotatably connected to the fourth support arm 414. Specific connection methods can be referenced to the connection methods between the first linkage arm 416, the first support arm 411, and the second support arm 412, which will not be elaborated further in this embodiment.

[0182] Please refer to Figure 13, which is a partial structural schematic diagram of the lifting assembly 10 shown in Figure 6.

[0183] In some embodiments, the linkage assembly 41 may be movably mounted on the base 1.

[0184] For example, the first end 4111 of the first support arm 411 is rotatably connected to the base 1. The first protrusion 125 may be located within the first clearance groove 4115. The first rotation hole 4114 is coaxially arranged with the first connection hole 124 (see Figure 9), and a rotating shaft can be inserted into the first rotation hole 4114 and the first connection hole 124 to allow the first support arm 411 to rotate relative to the base 1.

[0185] For example, the first end 4121 of the second support arm 412 is rotatably connected to the base 1. The first rotating shaft 127 is inserted into the second rotating hole 4124, allowing the second support arm 412 to rotate relative to the base 1. The axis of rotation of the second support arm 412 relative to the base 1 is parallel to the axis of rotation of the first support arm 411 relative to the base 1.

[0186] For example, the first support arm 411, the second support arm 412 and the first linkage arm 416 are all located on the top side of the skirt 122 of the second housing 12.

[0187] For example, the first end 4131 of the third support arm 413 is rotatably connected to the base 1, and the first end 4141 of the fourth support arm 414 is rotatably connected to the base 1. The specific structure can be referenced from the corresponding configuration of the first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412, which will not be repeated in this example. The axis of rotation of the third support arm 413 relative to the base 1 coincides with the axis of rotation of the first support arm 411 relative to the base 1, and the axis of rotation of the fourth support arm 414 relative to the base 1 coincides with the axis of rotation of the second support arm 412 relative to the base 1.

[0188] Please refer to Figures 14 and 15. Figure 14 is a structural schematic diagram of the lifting member 2 shown in Figure 8 in some embodiments, and Figure 15 is a structural schematic diagram of Figure 14 from another perspective. The perspective of Figure 15 is the perspective of the lifting member 2 shown in Figure 14 after it has been flipped.

[0189] In some embodiments, the lifting member 2 may have a generally cover-like structure. A cover space may be formed inside the lifting member 2.

[0190] For example, the lifting member 2 includes a top 21 and a side 22, with the side 22 surrounding and fixedly connected to the top 21. For instance, the top 21 of the lifting member 2 is generally rectangular, and the side 22 of the lifting member 2 may surround the top 21 on four sides, forming four side walls of the lifting member 2, wherein three side walls may be higher and the other side may be lower, so that the lifting member 2 avoids the appearance member 3 in the lifting assembly 10.

[0191] For example, the lifting member 2 has a light-transmitting portion 211. The light-transmitting portion 211 may be formed on the top 21 of the lifting member 2. The light-transmitting portion 211 may be made of a transparent material so that light can enter the inner enclosure space of the lifting member 2 from the outside.

[0192] For example, the lifting member 2 may be provided with a first sliding hole 221 and a second sliding hole 222. The first sliding hole 221 and the second sliding hole 222 may have the same shape. Both may be "racetrack-shaped" through holes, but are not limited to this. Both the first sliding hole 221 and the second sliding hole 222 may be located on the bottom edge of the side portion 22 of the lifting member 2.

[0193] For example, the lifting member 2 may also have a first guide groove 223. Extending along the height direction of the lifting member 2, for example, the first guide groove 223 may extend in a first direction, that is, the extension direction of the first guide groove 223 is parallel to the Z direction. The first guide groove 223 may be located on the side 22 of the lifting member 2 and opened towards the housing space.

[0194] For example, the lifting member 2 may also have a first sliding groove 212. The lifting member 2 may have a first connecting portion 213, which is fixedly connected to the top 21 of the lifting member 2 and extends from the side 22 of the lifting member 2. The first sliding groove 212 may be formed in the first connecting portion 213. The first sliding groove 212 may extend along the X direction, but is not strictly limited thereto.

[0195] For example, the lifting member 2 may also have a second light-transmitting opening 214. The second light-transmitting opening 214 may be a generally rectangular opening. The second light-transmitting opening 214 may be located at the top 21 of the lifting member 2.

[0196] For example, the lifting component 2 may also be provided with a third sliding hole 224, a fourth sliding hole 225, a second guide groove 226, and a second sliding groove 215. The third sliding hole 224, the fourth sliding hole 225, the second guide groove 226, and the second sliding groove 215 can respectively correspond to the configuration of the first sliding hole 221, the second sliding hole 222, the first guide groove 223, and the first sliding groove 212, which will not be elaborated further in this embodiment.

[0197] For example, the lifting component 2 may have a symmetrical structure, but is not limited to this.

[0198] Please refer to Figure 16, which is a cross-sectional view of a portion of the lifting assembly 10 shown in Figure 6 in some embodiments, and Figure 17 is a cross-sectional view of a portion of the lifting assembly 10 shown in Figure 7 in some embodiments.

[0199] In some embodiments, the lifting member 2 can be movably mounted on the base 1, and the lifting member 2 can be connected to the linkage assembly 41. The lifting member 2 can move up and down relative to the base 1 in a first direction, and the linkage assembly 41 can be used to drive the lifting member 2 to move up and down.

[0200] For example, the lifting member 2 can be slidably connected to the base 1 along a first direction. For instance, the first direction can be parallel to the Z direction. The first guide block 126 of the base 1 can be located in the first guide groove 223 of the lifting member 2, and the first guide block 126 can slide within the first guide groove 223. The second guide block 1211 can be located in the second guide groove 226, and the second guide block 1211 can slide within the second guide groove 226. In this case, the first guide block 126 and the first guide groove 223 constitute a guiding structure. Through the setting of the guiding structure, the position of the lifting member 2 relative to the base 1 can be constrained, and the direction of movement of the lifting member 2 can also be constrained, making the lifting movement of the lifting member 2 more stable.

[0201] For example, the second end 4112 of the first support arm 411 can be slidably connected to the lifting member 2, and the second end 4122 of the second support arm 412 can also be slidably connected to the lifting member 2. The first slider 4116 of the first support arm 411 can be located within the first sliding hole 221 of the lifting member 2, and the first slider 4116 can slide within the first sliding hole 221. For example, the first support arm 411 can slide relative to the lifting member 2 in the X direction. The second slider 4125 of the second support arm 412 can be located within the second sliding hole 222 of the lifting member 2, and the second slider 4125 can slide within the second sliding hole 222. For example, the second support arm 412 can slide relative to the lifting member 2 in the X direction.

[0202] Since the first end 4111 of the first support arm 411 is rotatably connected to the base 1, and the lifting member 2 has a degree of freedom in the first direction relative to the base 1, when the first end 4111 of the first support arm 411 rotates relative to the base 1, the second end 4112 of the first support arm 411 drives the lifting member 2 to move up and down relative to the base 1 in the first direction, and the second end 4112 of the first support arm 411 slides relative to the lifting member 2. Similarly, since the first end 4121 of the second support arm 412 is rotatably connected to the base 1, when the first end 4121 of the second support arm 412 rotates relative to the base 1, the second end 4122 of the second support arm 412 drives the lifting member 2 to move up and down relative to the base 1 in the first direction, and the second end 4122 of the second support arm 412 slides relative to the lifting member 2.

[0203] It is understandable that, since the first linkage arm 416 connects the first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412, the first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412 can rotate synchronously, so that both the first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412 serve as driving components of the lifting member 2, and can move synchronously. It is also understandable that by applying power to any one of the first support arm 411, the second support arm 412, and the first linkage arm 416, the first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412 can move synchronously.

[0204] In this embodiment, the linkage assembly 41 is used to drive the lifting member 2 to move up and down. The structure of the linkage assembly 41 is relatively flexible and can be set according to the shape of the lifting member 2, thereby improving the compactness of the lifting assembly 10 and making it easy to miniaturize the lifting assembly 10.

[0205] Furthermore, the first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412 jointly support the lifting component 2 and drive the lifting component 2 to move. The two support structures provide more stable support for the lifting component 2 and make the force on the lifting component 2 more balanced, which is conducive to the smooth lifting of the lifting component 2 and thus improves the reliability of the lifting assembly 10.

[0206] In some embodiments, the first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412 are arranged in parallel.

[0207] For example, the line connecting the axis of the first rotating hole 4114 and the center of the first slider 4116 is parallel to the line connecting the axis of the second rotating hole 4124 and the center of the second slider 4125. In this case, the arrangement of the first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412 is basically the same, which is beneficial for making reasonable use of the space in the lifting assembly 10. Furthermore, when the first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412 drive the lifting component 2 to move, their movement patterns are basically the same, making the movement relatively simple and further improving the reliability of the lifting assembly 10.

[0208] In some examples, the length of the line connecting the axis of the first rotating hole 4114 and the center of the first slider 4116 is equal to the length of the line connecting the axis of the second rotating hole 4124 and the center of the second slider 4125. In this case, the first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412 are connected to the lifting member 2 in the same way, and the first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412 move in the same way relative to the lifting member 2.

[0209] In some embodiments, referring to FIG13, the lifting assembly 10 further includes a third support arm 413 and a fourth support arm 414. In this case, the first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412 can form a structure for supporting and driving the lifting member 2, and the third support arm 413 and the fourth support arm 414 can form a structure for supporting and driving the lifting member 2. The two sets of structures support and drive different sides of the lifting member 2 respectively, which is more compatible with the shape of the cover structure of the lifting member 2, improves the reliability of the lifting assembly 10, and also improves the impact resistance of the lifting member 2.

[0210] In some embodiments, since the first support arm 411 and the third support arm 413 are integrally formed structural components, the first support arm 411 and the third support arm 413 can move synchronously, and the third support arm 413 can also serve as a driving component of the lifting member 2. Furthermore, the first support arm 411 and the third support arm 413 have higher rigidity and stronger support capacity for the lifting member 2.

[0211] In some embodiments, the lifting assembly 10 further includes a flexible member 5, which connects the lifting assembly 2 and the base 1.

[0212] For example, referring to Figure 8, the flexible member 5 can be generally cylindrical in shape. The top and bottom sides of the flexible member 5 are connected. The flexible member 5 can have a first opening 51 and a second opening 52 opposite to each other. The first opening 51 can be located on the bottom side of the flexible member 5, and the second opening 52 can be located on the top side of the flexible member 5.

[0213] For example, the flexible member 5 is capable of deforming under stress. When the lifting member 2 descends relative to the base 1, the flexible member 5 is compressed under stress. The flexible member 5 is capable of elastic deformation.

[0214] For example, the first opening 51 of the flexible member 5 can be connected to the first light-transmitting opening 128 of the base 1. The second opening 52 of the flexible member 5 can be connected to the second light-transmitting opening 214 of the lifting member 2. It is understood that the end of the flexible member 5 with the first opening 51 can be fixedly connected to the second housing 12. The end of the flexible member 5 with the second opening 52 can be fixedly connected to the lifting member 2. The first light-transmitting opening 128 and the second light-transmitting opening 214 are connected through the space enclosed by the flexible member 5. The space enclosed by the flexible member 5 can be used to propagate light.

[0215] For example, in the first direction, the light-transmitting portion 211 can at least partially cover the first light-transmitting opening 128 and the second light-transmitting opening 214. At this time, light can easily enter directly into the inner side of the lifting member 2 and the receiving space 1a of the base, and the optical space formed inside the lifting assembly 10 is larger, which is beneficial to improving the applicability of the lifting assembly 10.

[0216] In this embodiment, since the flexible member 5 can deform and based on the setting of the flexible member 5, the flexible member 5 isolates the accommodating space 1a of the base 1 from the external space. When light enters the accommodating space 1a through the light-transmitting part 211, the external environment will not affect the light path, which is beneficial to improving the protection capability of the lifting component 10 in the camera device, thereby improving the reliability of the camera device.

[0217] Please refer to Figures 16 and 17 for further details.

[0218] When the lifting assembly 10 is in the raised state, the top surface of the lifting member 2 has a first distance h1 with the top surface of the base 1. The first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412 have a first included angle with the top surface of the base 1, respectively. The flexible member 5 is in the extended state.

[0219] When the lifting assembly 10 is in the retracted state, the top surface of the lifting member 2 has a second distance h2 with the top surface of the base 1, which is smaller than the first distance h1. The first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412 each have a second included angle with the top surface of the base 1. The second included angle is smaller than the first included angle. And the flexible member 5 is in a compressed and folded state.

[0220] During the transition from the raised state to the retracted state of the lifting assembly 10, the lifting member 2 descends relative to the base 1, the first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412 rotate clockwise relative to the base 1, and the flexible member 5 is compressed. It can be understood that during the transition from the retracted state to the raised state of the lifting assembly 10, the movement of each component of the lifting assembly 10 is the reverse of the process described above.

[0221] In this embodiment, by switching between the raised state and the retracted state of the lifting component 10, the lifting component 10 occupies a small space when not in use, and can form a large internal optical space when in use, thus making the lifting component 10 highly adaptable.

[0222] Please refer to Figures 18 and 19. Figure 18 is a structural schematic diagram of the exterior component 3 shown in Figure 8 in some embodiments, and Figure 19 is a structural schematic diagram of Figure 18 from another perspective. The perspective of Figure 19 is the perspective of the exterior component 3 shown in Figure 18 after it has been rotated.

[0223] In some embodiments, the exterior component 3 may be generally a cover structure. A shielding space may be formed on the inner side of the lifting component 2.

[0224] The exterior component 3 includes a first end 31 and a second end 32. The first end 31 of the exterior component 3 is fixedly connected to the second end 32.

[0225] For example, the appearance component 3 includes a top 33 and a side 34, with the side 34 fixedly connected to the edge of the top 33. For instance, the top 33 of the appearance component 3 is generally rectangular, and the side 34 of the appearance component 3 may form two opposing sidewalls of the lifting component 2. The side 34 of the appearance component 3 may not form sidewalls at its first end 31 and second end 32.

[0226] For example, the first end 31 of the exterior component 3 may have a first rotating groove 311. The first rotating groove 311 may be an arc-shaped groove. The first rotating groove 311 may be formed on the side 34 of the exterior component 3 and be oriented toward the shading space.

[0227] For example, the second end 32 of the exterior component 3 may be provided with a first sliding block 321. The first sliding block 321 may be a cylindrical slider, but is not limited to this. The first sliding block 321 may be located at the junction of the top 33 and the side of the exterior component 3 and protrude toward the shading space.

[0228] For example, the first end 31 of the appearance component 3 may also be provided with a second rotating groove 312. The first end 31 of the appearance component 3 may also be provided with a second sliding block 322. The specific structures of the second rotating groove 312 and the second sliding block 322 can be referred to the first rotating groove 311 and the first sliding block 321 respectively, which will not be described in detail in this example.

[0229] Please refer to Figures 20 and 21. Figure 20 is a second cross-sectional view of a portion of the structure of the lifting assembly 10 shown in Figure 6 in some embodiments, and Figure 21 is a third cross-sectional view of a portion of the structure of the lifting assembly 10 shown in Figure 6 in some embodiments.

[0230] In some embodiments, the first end 31 of the exterior component 3 is rotatably connected to the base 1, and the second end 32 of the exterior component 3 is slidably connected to the lifting component 2. The lifting component 2 and the exterior component 3 can be arranged along a second direction.

[0231] For example, the first rotating block 123 of the base 1 is mounted on the first rotating groove 311 and can slide within the first rotating groove 311. It is understood that during the sliding process within the first rotating groove 311, the first rotating block 123 rotates relative to the base 1 about an axis. At this time, since both the first rotating block 123 and the first rotating groove 311 are arc-shaped blocks, the axis of rotation of the first rotating block 123 relative to the base 1 is a virtual axis, which can be located outside the structure of the base 1 or the outer part 3. Therefore, the positions of the first rotating block 123 and the first rotating groove 311 can be flexibly set, making reasonable use of the space of the lifting assembly 10.

[0232] For example, the first sliding block 321 of the exterior component 3 is installed in the first sliding groove 212 of the lifting component 2 and can slide within the first sliding groove 212. When the first sliding groove 212 extends along the second direction, the first sliding block 321 can slide relative to the lifting component 2 along the second direction. At this time, through the arrangement of the first sliding block 321 and the first sliding groove 212, the second end 32 of the exterior component 3 is slidably connected to the lifting component 2; when the exterior component 3 is flipped, the second end 32 of the exterior component 3 moves relative to the lifting component 2 in the first direction, and the first end 31 of the exterior component 3 only rotates relative to the base 1. The movement of the exterior component 3 as a whole relative to the base 1 is relatively simple, and the reliability of the lifting assembly 10 is high.

[0233] For example, the second direction is different from the first direction. The second direction can be perpendicular to the first direction; for example, the second direction can be parallel to the X direction.

[0234] In this embodiment, when the lifting member 2 moves up and down, the lifting member 2 transmits the driving force to the appearance member 3. The lifting member 2 drives the second end 32 of the appearance member 3 to rotate around the first end 31, that is, the appearance member 3 flips around the base 1. In addition, during the flipping process of the appearance member 3, the appearance member 3 both rotates and slides relative to the lifting member 2.

[0235] In some other embodiments, the first end 31 of the exterior component 3 is slidably connected to the base 1, and the second end 32 of the exterior component 3 is rotatably connected to the lifting component 2. In this case, the lifting component 2 can still drive the exterior component 3 to flip through its own lifting motion.

[0236] Please refer to Figures 22 and 23. Figure 22 is a cross-sectional view of a portion of the lifting assembly 10 shown in Figure 6 in some embodiments, and Figure 23 is a cross-sectional view of a portion of the lifting assembly 10 shown in Figure 7 in some embodiments.

[0237] As shown in Figure 22, when the lifting assembly 10 is in the raised state, the outer part 3 has a first angle α1 relative to the top surface of the base 1. The second end 32 of the outer part 3 extends out relative to the base 1.

[0238] As shown in Figure 23, when the lifting assembly 10 is in the retracted state, the outer part 3 has a second angle α2 relative to the top surface of the base 1, and the second angle α2 is smaller than the first angle α1. The second end 32 of the outer part 3 is at least partially retracted to the inside of the base 1. For example, the second angle α2 can be 0°.

[0239] During the process of the lifting assembly 10 switching from the raised state to the retracted state, the appearance component 3 rotates counterclockwise relative to the base 1, and the appearance component 3 rotates from tilted to straight.

[0240] In some embodiments, the drive component 4 is at least partially located in the receiving cavity 1b.

[0241] For example, when the lifting assembly 10 is in the raised or retracted state, the linkage assembly 41 can be located in the receiving cavity 1b. At this time, the receiving cavity 1b can protect the linkage assembly 41, prevent the linkage assembly 41 from colliding with other components, make the overall structure of the lifting assembly 10 more regular, and make the layout of the various components of the lifting assembly 10 more reasonable.

[0242] In some embodiments, when the lifting assembly 10 is in the retracted state, the side portion 22 of the lifting member 2 is mostly located within the receiving cavity 1b, and the side portion 34 of the outer appearance member 3 is mostly located within the receiving cavity 1b. For example, both the side portion 22 of the lifting member 2 and the side portion 34 of the outer appearance member 3 are located in the gap between the first housing 11 and the second housing 12, and the lifting member 2 and the outer appearance member 3 are essentially covered on the outside of the second housing 12.

[0243] Therefore, the receiving cavity 1b of the base 1 is used to receive the side 22 of the lifting component 2 and the side 34 of the exterior component 3.

[0244] In this embodiment, the receiving cavity 1b serves as an independent cavity, isolating the side 22 of the lifting member 2 from the receiving space 1a of the base 1. The receiving cavity 1b provides a placement space for the side 22 of the lifting member 2 and can also protect the lifting member 2, thereby improving the reliability and impact resistance of the lifting assembly 10.

[0245] Please refer to Figure 22. In this embodiment, the lifting member 2 is installed on the base 1 and can move up and down relative to the base 1 in a first direction; the appearance member 3 is installed on the base 1 and arranged with the lifting member 2 in a second direction, which is different from the first direction. The light-transmitting part 211 is exposed relative to the lifting member 2. The appearance member 3 includes a first end 31 and a second end 32 that are arranged opposite to each other. The second end 32 of the appearance member 3 is close to the lifting member 2 relative to the first end 31. One end of the first end 31 and the second end 32 of the appearance member 3 is rotatably connected to the base 1, and the other end is slidably connected to the lifting member 2; the driving assembly 4 is installed on the base 1 and connected to the lifting member 2 to drive the lifting member 2 to move up and down relative to the base 1.

[0246] In this embodiment, the lifting member 2 can be driven by the driving component 4, thereby realizing the lifting and lowering of the lifting member 2 relative to the base 1 in the first direction. When the lifting member 2 is not raised, the lifting component 10 has a small overall height dimension. When the lifting member 2 is raised, the height dimension of the lifting component 10 is increased, thereby increasing the optical space covered inside the lifting member 2.

[0247] Furthermore, the exterior component 3 can be driven by the lifting motion of the lifting component 2 to achieve synchronous flipping. When the exterior component 3 is not flipped up, that is, when the exterior component 3 is laid flat, the exterior component 3 and the lifting component 2 are side by side and adjacent. When the exterior component 3 is flipped up, the exterior component 3 is located on one side of the lifting component 2 in the second direction. Since the exterior component 3 is connected to the lifting component 2, the exterior component 3 is equivalent to forming one side wall of the lifting component 2, thereby shielding and isolating the space inside the lifting component 2. The side wall of the side adjacent to the lifting component 2 and the exterior component 3 can be omitted or have a lower height, which is beneficial to keep the height of the lifting component 10 low and to allow for the installation of a lifting component 2 with a smaller area.

[0248] When the lifting component 10 is applied to a periscope camera device, the periscope camera module is relatively long. However, the size of the lifting component 2 in this embodiment can be smaller than the size of the camera module, without needing to be larger than the camera module to cover it. Therefore, the lifting component 10 in this embodiment is highly adaptable to periscope camera devices.

[0249] In some embodiments, a portion of the structure of the exterior component 3 is located in and exposed through the first receiving hole 111, a portion of the structure of the lifting component 2 is located in the first receiving hole 111, and the light-transmitting portion 211 is exposed through the first receiving hole 111.

[0250] In this embodiment, at least part of the structure of both the exterior component 3 and the lifting component 2 is located in the first receiving hole 111 and exposed, which is equivalent to the base 1 surrounding the exterior component 3 and the lifting component 2. The base 1 can protect the exterior component 3 and the lifting component 2 and better support the exterior component 3 and the lifting component 2. At the same time, the base 1 will not affect the movement of the exterior component 3 and the lifting component 2. The structural arrangement of the lifting component 10 is more reasonable.

[0251] In some embodiments, there is a gap between the end face of the second end 32 of the outer appearance member 3 and the side portion 22 of the lifting member 2, and the gap may be less than 0.5 mm. In this case, the outer appearance member 3 has a good shielding effect on the lifting member 2, so as to prevent dust and other impurities from entering the inner space of the lifting member 2.

[0252] In some examples, the width of the exterior component 3 and the width of the lifting component 2 can be approximately the same. On the vertical plane in the first direction, the top surface of the lifting component 2 at least covers part of the structure of the second end 32 of the exterior component 3, so as to improve the rationality of the layout of the lifting component 2 and the exterior component 3 and improve the space utilization.

[0253] Please refer to Figure 24, which is an exploded structural diagram of the power assembly 42 shown in Figure 8 in some embodiments.

[0254] In some embodiments, the power assembly 42 includes a power unit 421, a follower 422, a drive member 423, and an elastic member 424.

[0255] For example, the power unit 421 has an output end 4211 for outputting power, and the output end 4211 is a worm gear. The power unit 421 can be energized and output torque, which can be output through the rotational motion of the output end 4211. For example, the power unit 421 can be a micro motor, etc.

[0256] The power unit 421 may have a fixing hole 4212 for fixing the power unit 421.

[0257] For example, the follower 422 is a worm gear. The follower 422 may have a central hole 4221, which may be a through hole. The follower 422 may form a placement cavity. The placement cavity may communicate with the central hole 4221.

[0258] For example, the drive member 423 may include a central rod 4231, a main body 4232, and a drive part 4233. The main body 4232 is fixedly connected to the central rod 4231 and the drive part 4233. The central rod 4231 may be a cylindrical rod. The main body 4232 and the drive part 4233 may each be generally cylindrical. The drive part 4233 is offset relative to the central rod 4231.

[0259] For example, the elastic element 424 may include a first end 4241 and a second end 4242 opposite to each other. The elastic element 424 can elastically deform when subjected to force. For example, the elastic element 424 may be a torsion spring, but is not limited to this.

[0260] Please refer to Figure 25, which is a schematic diagram of the internal structure of the power assembly 42 shown in Figure 24 in some embodiments.

[0261] In some embodiments, in the power assembly 42, the output end 4211 of the power unit 421 engages with the driven member 422, and the driving member 423 is fixedly connected to and coaxially arranged with the driven member 422.

[0262] For example, the central rod 4231 of the drive member 423 can be inserted into the central hole 4221 of the driven member 422 so that the two can rotate coaxially.

[0263] For example, the elastic member 424 can be sleeved on the outside of the central rod 4231 and located inside the driven member 422. The first end 4241 of the elastic member 424 can be fixedly connected to the driven member 422, and the second end 4242 of the elastic member 424 can be fixedly connected to the driving member 423, so that the driving member 423 is fixedly connected to the driven member 422, and the driven member 422 can drive the driving member 423 to rotate. Furthermore, because the elastic member 424 is elastic, the driving member 423 can rotate slightly relative to the driven member 423. In addition, because the driving part 4233 is offset relative to the central rod 4231, when the driven member 422 rotates, the driving member 423 effectively forms a crank.

[0264] Please refer to Figure 26, which is a cross-sectional view taken along section AA in Figure 6.

[0265] In some embodiments, the power assembly 42 is mounted on the base 1 and is drive-connected to the linkage assembly 41.

[0266] For example, the power unit 421 can be located in the first mounting slot 112. After a fastener (not shown) passes through the fixing hole 4212, it is fixedly connected to the base 1, so that the power unit 421 is fixedly connected to the base 1.

[0267] For example, the follower 422 may be located in the second mounting groove 113. The follower 422 may be slidably connected to the groove wall of the second mounting groove 113.

[0268] For example, the drive member 423 may be located in the second mounting slot 113. The drive member 423 may be slidably connected to the slot wall of the second mounting slot 113.

[0269] For example, the drive member 423 can be connected to the linkage assembly 41 in a transmission manner. The drive portion 4233 of the drive member 423 can be inserted into the first drive hole 4165 of the first linkage arm 416. Since the first drive hole 4165 can be a non-circular hole, the drive portion 4233 can move within a small range within the first drive hole 4165, thereby facilitating the flexible setting of the offset distance between the drive portion 4233 and the center rod 4231 of the drive member 423.

[0270] In this example, since the driving component 423 forms a crank, when the driving component 423 rotates, the driving part 4233 moves around the axis in an arc, thereby driving the first linkage arm 416 to move. Referring to Figure 16, when the first linkage arm 416 moves, it can drive the first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412 to rotate, thereby driving the lifting component 2 to rise and the exterior component 3 to flip. Therefore, in this example, by driving the first linkage arm 416 through the power component 42, the first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412 can be driven to move synchronously, making the movements of the first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412 more synchronized, and improving the driving effect on the lifting component 2.

[0271] In some other examples, the power assembly 42 may drive only one of the first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412; this example does not specifically limit this.

[0272] In this embodiment, the transmission component of the power unit 421 includes a worm gear structure. The power of the power unit 421 can only be transmitted to the worm gear in one direction. Therefore, after the power component 42 drives the lifting member 2 to a certain height, it can keep the lifting member 2 at the corresponding height, so that the state of the lifting member 2 and the appearance member 3 remains more stable.

[0273] In some embodiments, when the power assembly 42 includes an elastic element 424, the elastic element 424 allows relative rotation between the driving element 423 and the driven element 422. Therefore, when the lifting element 2 or the exterior element 3 is subjected to an external force impact in the raised state, the lifting element 2 can retract. At this time, on the one hand, the lifting element 2 and the exterior element 3 can be buffered to avoid excessive impact on them; on the other hand, the transmission structure of the power assembly 42 is buffered to prevent excessive external force impact from damaging components such as the power unit 421 and the driven element 422.

[0274] The lifting assembly 10 provided in this application embodiment includes a lifting member 2 with a light-transmitting portion 211. The lifting member 2 is slidably connected to a base 1 and can move up and down relative to the base 1 in a first direction. The linkage assembly 41 includes a first support arm 411 and a second support arm 412. The first support arm 411 includes a first end 4111 and a second end 4112. The first end 4111 of the first support arm 411 is rotatably connected to the base 1, and the second end 4112 of the first support arm 411 is slidably connected to the lifting member 2. The second support arm 412 includes a first end 4121 and a second end 4122. The first end 4121 of the second support arm 412 is rotatably connected to the base 1, and the second end 4122 of the second support arm 412 is slidably connected to the lifting member 2. The power assembly 42 is connected to the first support arm 411 and / or the second support arm 412 to drive the lifting member 2 to move up and down.

[0275] In this embodiment, the lifting component 2 is slidably connected to the base 1, thereby guiding the movement of the lifting component 2. The first support arm 411 and the second support arm 412 jointly support the lifting component 2 and drive the lifting component 2 to move up and down. In this embodiment, the lifting assembly 10 has a simple structure, the connecting rod assembly 41 occupies little space, the lifting assembly 10 has high space utilization, and the structure is compact.

[0276] Please refer to Figure 27, which is a partial structural schematic diagram of the lifting assembly 10 shown in Figure 7 in some embodiments. The drive member 423 is shown in dashed lines to indicate the components it obscures.

[0277] In some embodiments, the base 1, the drive member 423, the first linkage arm 416, and the first support arm 411 can constitute a parallelogram linkage mechanism.

[0278] For example, the axis of rotation of the first support arm 411 relative to the base 1 is the first axis 4a, the axis of rotation of the first support arm 411 relative to the first linkage arm 416 is the second axis 4b, the axis of rotation of the driving member 423 relative to the base 1 is the third axis 4c, and the axis of rotation of the driving member 423 relative to the first linkage arm 416 is the fourth axis 4d. The first axis 4a, the second axis 4b, the third axis 4c, and the fourth axis 4d are parallel; and, in the plane perpendicular to the first axis 4a, the lines connecting the first axis 4a and the second axis 4b, and the lines connecting the third axis 4c and the fourth axis 4d are parallel and equal.

[0279] At this time, the drive component 423 and the first linkage arm 416 rotate relative to each other around the axis, making the connection between the drive component 423 and the first linkage arm 416 more reliable; the rotation angle of the drive component 423 is equal to the rotation angle of the first support arm 411, making the drive of the drive component 423 on the first support arm 411 more precise, which is conducive to the stable and precise lifting of the lifting component 2.

[0280] Please refer to Figure 28, which is a schematic diagram of the internal structure of the electronic device 1000 shown in Figure 4 in some embodiments.

[0281] In some embodiments, in the electronic device 1000, the base 1 of the lifting assembly 10 can be attached to the inside of the housing 300 and fixedly connected to the housing 300. The exterior component 3 and the lifting component 2 are exposed relative to the housing 300.

[0282] For example, the outer component 3 may have a first surface 35, and the housing 300 may have a second surface 3005. The first surface 35 may be flush with the second surface 3005. The first surface 35 may be the top surface of the outer component 3. The second surface 3005 may be located outside the periphery of the first surface 35. For instance, when the lifting assembly 10 is in the retracted state, the first surface 35 of the outer component 3 may be flush with the second surface 3005 of the housing 300, making the outer surface of the electronic device 1000 smoother and providing a better user experience.

[0283] For example, the first housing 11 of the base 1 can be adhered to the inside of the outer casing 300. The top surface of the first housing 11 can be attached to the inside of the outer casing 300. In some other embodiments, the base 1 may not have a first housing 11. This embodiment is not specifically limited.

[0284] In this embodiment, compared to the prior art where the lifting component 2 covers the entire camera module 20, the lifting component 2 in this embodiment does not need to cover the entire camera module 20, which is beneficial to the miniaturization design of the lifting component 10.

[0285] In some embodiments, at least a portion of the structure of the camera module 20 faces the light-transmitting portion 211 of the lifting member 2. The camera module 20 is a periscope camera.

[0286] The camera module 20 may include a light-intake section 2011. For example, the light-intake section 2011 may be a lens element of the lens 201. The light-intake section 2011 is used for light intake of the camera module 20. The photosensitive element 202 of the camera module 20 may be arranged with the light-intake section 2011 in a direction perpendicular to the central axis of the light-intake section 2011. For example, the photosensitive element 202 may be arranged parallel to the central axis of the light-intake section 2011, or at an angle to the central axis of the light-intake section 2011.

[0287] For example, the camera module 20 may be generally rectangular in shape, with the light-inlet portion 2011 located at one end of the camera module 20 and the photosensitive element 202 located at the other end of the camera module 20.

[0288] In this configuration, the lifting member 2 covers the light-inlet section 2011 along its central axis. That is, the camera module 20 and the lifting member 2 are arranged along the central axis of the light-inlet section 2011 to avoid the lifting member 2 blocking the light-inlet section 2011, thereby ensuring that light passes through the lifting member 2, enters the camera module 20 through the light-inlet section 2011.

[0289] In the direction of the central axis of the light-inlet section 2011, the outer part 3 can cover the photosensitive element 202, but is not limited to this. At this time, the projected area of ​​the lifting member 2 on the vertical plane of the central axis of the light-inlet section 2011 can be much smaller than the projected area of ​​the camera module 20 on the vertical plane of the central axis of the light-inlet section 2011.

[0290] For example, the central axis of the light-receiving part 2011 is parallel to the Z direction, and the projected area of ​​the lifting member 2 in the XY plane can be smaller than the projected area of ​​the camera module 20 in the XY plane. For example, the projected area of ​​the lifting member 2 in the XY plane can be smaller than % of the projected area of ​​the camera module 20 in the XY plane.

[0291] In this embodiment, the lifting component 2 provides optical space for the camera module 20 to capture images by lifting and the exterior component 3 by flipping, and also shields the structure of the camera module 20 to protect the camera module 20. Furthermore, the camera device is easy to achieve a thin design.

[0292] Furthermore, since the camera module 20 is a periscope camera, the camera module 20 is relatively long and the area of ​​the light-receiving part 2011 is small. The lifting component 10 is also relatively long, and the area of ​​the lifting component 2 can be set to be relatively small. This makes it highly adaptable to periscope cameras. When the camera device is applied to the electronic device 1000, the area of ​​the lifting component 2 that protrudes from the electronic device 1000 when it is raised is relatively small, which helps to improve the reliability of the lifting and also enhances the user experience.

[0293] Because camera devices are easy to design in a thin form, electronic devices 1000 are also easy to design in a thin form, resulting in a good user experience.

[0294] In some other embodiments, the camera module 20 can be a cylindrical camera, that is, the lens 201 and the photosensitive element 202 are arranged along the central axis of the light-inlet portion 2011. This embodiment does not limit this.

[0295] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other, and any combination of features in different embodiments is also within the protection scope of this application. That is to say, the multiple embodiments described above can also be arbitrarily combined according to actual needs.

[0296] It should be noted that all the above figures are exemplary illustrations of this application and do not represent the actual size of the product. Furthermore, the dimensional proportions between the components in the figures are not intended to limit the actual product of this application.

[0297] The above are merely some embodiments and implementation methods of this application. The scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
