Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If independent stands are connected by a soft circuit board, then the device complexity is reduced, but the manufacturing precision and positional tolerance deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple independent stands into a single integrated stand structure that supports multiple lens assemblies. This integration eliminates the need for separate circuit board connections between stands, thereby maintaining low device complexity while achieving high manufacturing precision and consistent positional tolerance across all lens assemblies.
2Ease of manufacture
If independent stands are used, then the ease of manufacture is improved, but the rigidity and stability of the module deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple stands into a single rigid integrated stand structure that maintains ease of manufacture through modular lens assembly attachment while providing enhanced overall rigidity and stability. The integrated design ensures consistent spacing and positioning without requiring multiple separate assembly operations.
3Device complexity
If a circuit board is used to connect stands, then the device complexity is reduced, but heat-induced deformation and pollution of photosensitive sensors occur
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and eliminates the circuit board connection structure from the system. The integrated stand design provides mechanical support and positioning without relying on circuit boards, thereby removing the source of heat-induced deformation and potential pollution to photosensitive sensors while maintaining structural simplicity.
4Adaptability or versatility
If multiple independent stands are used, then the adaptability is improved, but the consistency of imaging quality deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent integrates multiple lens assemblies onto a single stand structure, which maintains the adaptability to support various lens configurations while ensuring consistent imaging quality through unified positioning and spacing. The integrated design guarantees uniform optical paths and consistent focal planes across all lenses.

AI summary
A multi-lens camera module and its multi-lens camera module conjoined stand, and the application thereof. The multi-lens camera module includes at least two lens assemblies, at least two photosensitive assemblies and an integrated multi-lens camera module conjoined stand. The multi-lens camera module conjoined stand has an upside and a downside. Each lens assembly is connected to the upside of the multi-lens camera module conjoined stand. Each photosensitive assembly is connected to the downside of the multi-lens camera module conjoined stand. Each of the camera assembly is located along a path of photoreception of the respective photosensitive assembly. By this means, technical defects in the conventional art, including positional deviations and angle deviations among stands when separate stands are connected, can be avoided. Therefore, the imaging quality of the multi-lens camera module is improved.
