Solution Overview

Problem

Existing electronic devices face challenges in achieving effective anti-shake performance during shooting due to interference from electromagnetic driving mechanisms in camera systems, which can affect the stability and quality of photographs.

Innovation Solution

An anti-shake mechanism is implemented using a camera holder with first and second connecting holes, connected by a swing rod and driving component, allowing the camera to rotate around a first anti-shake connecting component, enhancing stability through rotation and movement adjustments.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If an electromagnetic driving mechanism is used to drive the camera to rotate for anti-shake, then the camera can achieve motion compensation, but electromagnetic interference may affect the anti-shake effect

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveanti-shake effectVSAvoidelectromagnetic interference
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces the electromagnetic driving mechanism with a mechanical driving mechanism. The camera holder includes a driving component that mechanically drives the camera to rotate around the optical axis, eliminating electromagnetic interference while maintaining the anti-shake function. This substitution of electromagnetic field with mechanical field directly resolves the contradiction between achieving motion compensation and avoiding electromagnetic interference.

Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a dynamic anti-shake mechanism where the camera can rotate relative to the camera holder around the optical axis. The driving component enables the camera to dynamically adjust its position to compensate for hand shake, transforming the static holding structure into a dynamic stabilization system. This allows the system to maintain simple overall structure while achieving active anti-shake performance that improves shooting quality.
