Description

Lens barrel
Technical field
The present invention relates to the lens barrel for the optical axis direction displacement that can realize lens.
Background technology
In the lens barrel installed in digital camera of zoom shot etc. is capable of, make to be arranged at the shifting for keeping zoom lens The cam follower of dynamic frame engages with being formed at the cam path of cam canister, and movable frame is relatively rotated with cam canister, thus high Carry out to precision the optical axis direction displacement of zoom lens.
However, such as drop to it sometimes when user inadvertently touches the digital camera for the end for being placed on desk Floor etc..Now, the stronger load caused by meeting because of inertia by movable frame when being hit when falling etc., in the load Effect is lower to cause cam follower to be extruded and be plastically deformed by the side of cam path, so exist and cause more than permissible value Saturating distance between mirrors variation and lens bias etc. worry.Especially because the high magnification of zoom ratio, capturing element The requirement of maximization, in recent years, lens barrel be present and maximize in itself, the weight of lens barrel, movable frame in itself is also increased Trend, therefore the trend for the influence increase hit when dropping be present.
On the other hand, Patent Document 1 discloses one kind can by make cam path and three metal cam followers with And the cam follower of three resin-mades engages to carry out dispersing impact forces and supported respectively, the lens for thus improving impact resistance Lens barrel.
Patent document 1:Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication 2009-258295 publications.
However, it is contemplated that cost, lightness etc., in cam canister of the side face formed with cam path typically by ester moulding.Special In the lens barrel of sharp document 1, the frame part as cam canister is also resin-made, is integrally formed with the pin of resin-made.Here, In the case where cam canister is resin-made, even if the shape for designing multiple cam paths is identical, but the cam path actually shaped Shape include foozle, cause possibility different from each other very high.If make 6 cam followers simultaneously with it is variform Cam path engages, then when moving the relative rotation of frame and cam canister, multiple cam followers can produce via cam path Competition, the worry for hindering smoothly zoom movement be present.
On the other hand, not specific in patent document 1 record, but also can three resin-mades cam follower with it is convex Gap is set between race.If being formed as such structure, shape of three metal cam followers etc. can be independent Adjustment, even if thus the shape difference of cam path them can also engaged with not competing, thus, it is possible to ensure smoothly zoom It is mobile.On the other hand, by making the cam follower of three resin-mades not contacted generally with cam path, zoom will not be hindered to move It is dynamic, and can thus enable that impact resistance improves by making to be in contact with each other to bear load when applying impact.
It is but clear to produce certain undesirable condition when making digital camera with such lens barrel etc. drop. Above-mentioned undesirable condition is specifically illustrated.In the lens barrel with said structure, pass through two ranks as follows Section absorbs impact, i.e., due to dropping when impact, cause the most junior three metal cam follower to be born from cam path Reaction force F1, and after each portion generation elastic deformation, the cam follower of three resin-mades abuts with cam path, bears anti- Directed force F 2.As long as its total reaction force (F1+F2) in allowed band, influence is just smaller, but is dropped from higher position In the case of excessive etc. impact, exist and first bear deforming more than for the installation portion of metal cam follower of impact etc. Hookean region and the worry for reaching plastic region.If installation portion of metal cam follower etc. is plastically deformed, convex The abutted position of wheel driven member and cam path changes, and the variation for causing the saturating distance between mirrors more than permissible value, lens be present Bias etc. worry.On the other hand, if being intended to improve the rigidity such as installation portion of cam follower to overcome above-mentioned impact, Then cause the further maximization of lens barrel, not preferably.Such undesirable condition is withdrawn camera machine in lens barrel State in body makes digital camera etc. be particularly susceptible generation problem in the case of dropping by mistake.
The content of the invention
It is an object of the invention to solve above-mentioned problem, its object is to provide a kind of both realized to minimize and ensure crashworthiness Hitting property and can enough accurately ensures the lens barrel of the displacement of lens.
Lens are remained and in the lens barrel, can had along optical axis direction displacement by the lens barrel of the present invention: Cartridge unit, it possesses main slot and secondary slot in side face;And frame part, it possesses the main card engaged with above-mentioned main slot Piece and the secondary snap-latch piece being configured in above-mentioned secondary slot are closed, at least one party's holding of above-mentioned cartridge unit and above-mentioned frame part Lens are stated, when making above-mentioned cartridge unit be relatively rotated with above-mentioned frame part, above-mentioned main snap-latch piece is relative along above-mentioned main slot It is mobile, and above-mentioned secondary snap-latch piece relatively moves along above-mentioned secondary slot, in shooting, above-mentioned main snap-latch piece and above-mentioned main card Groove contact is closed, so as to carry out the positioning of the optical axis direction of said lens, in non-shooting, above-mentioned secondary snap-latch piece closes with above-mentioned vice card Groove contacts.

Figure 13 is the expanded view of the outer peripheral face of rotating cylinder 130.Figure 14 is the arrow of Figure 13 in enlarged representation cam path 131 The figure at the position shown in XIV, Figure 15 are the figure at the position shown in the arrow XV of Figure 13 in enlarged representation cam path 132, but are It is readily appreciated that, exaggerates groove width respectively, in addition, with dotted line shows the master of pin 150,160 observed to same direction Want position profile.
In fig. 14, cam path 131 have shooting when pin 150 residing for shooting area (the 11st region) 131A with shooting with The non-shooting region 131B for (being referred to as non-shooting) residing for pin 150 when outer.Non-shooting region 131B has and shooting area 131A Transitional region (the 13rd region) 131C that connection and groove width gradually broaden with remote shooting area 131A.Transitional region 131C Non-shooting region 131B in addition is the 12nd region.
In shooting area 131A, as shown in figure 11, pin 150 is in the state of the side 131b with cam path 131 is contacted It is relative to slide.Pin 150 is in shooting area 131A, by mobile and with zoom lens to the side away from non-shooting region 131B Mode close to long sight side drives straight cylinder 120, or by close to the movement of non-shooting region 131B side and to become Focus lens drive straight cylinder 120 close to the mode of wide-angle side, the optical axis direction thus, it is possible to carry out high-precision zoom lens Positioning.On the other hand, in the 131B of non-shooting region, as shown in figure 16, pin 150 is in the not side 131b with cam path 131 The state of contact.
Here, the frusto-conical portion 150c of pin 150 and the side 131b of cam path 131 minimum clearance are being set to Δ 1 When, if the minimum clearance Δ 1 in non-shooting region 131B beyond transitional region 131C is A, the minimum in transitional region 131C Clearance delta 1 is B, although then B increases away from shooting area 131A with pin 150, A > B are necessarily set up.In addition, transition region Minimum clearance Δ 1 (=B) in the 131C of domain increases from the lateral non-shooting region 131B sides displacements of shooting area 131A with pin 150 Greatly.So, transitional region 131C is set in a manner of gradually changing minimum clearance Δ 1, shot so as to suppress pin 150 Drastically change of driving sound when being moved between region 131A and non-shooting region 131B etc..
In fig.15, cam path 132 have shooting when pin 160 residing for shooting area (the 21st region) 132A with shooting with The non-shooting region 132B for (being referred to as non-shooting) residing for pin 160 when outer.Non-shooting region 132B has and shooting area 132A Transitional region (the 23rd region) 132C that connection and groove width become narrow gradually with remote shooting area 132A.Transitional region 132C Non-shooting region 132B in addition is the 22nd region.
In the 132B of non-shooting region, as shown in figure 17, the state that pin 160 contacts in the side 131b with cam path 131 Lower relative slip.Therefore, pin 160 is driven in the 132B of non-shooting region by the side movement to remote shooting area 132A Straight cylinder 120, so as to which lens barrel is in retracted mode.On the other hand, in shooting area 132A, as shown in figure 12, pin 160 In the state not contacted with the side 132b of cam path 132.
Here, when the circular conical surface 160b of pin 160 and the side 132b of cam path 132 minimum clearance are set into Δ 2, if Minimum clearance Δ 2 in shooting area 132A is C, and the minimum clearance Δ 2 in transitional region 132C is D, although then D is with pin 160 are reduced away from shooting area 132A, but C > D are necessarily set up.In addition, in transitional region 132C minimum clearance Δ 2 (= D) as pin 160 is reduced from the lateral non-shooting region 132B sides displacements of shooting area 132A.So, so that minimum clearance Δ 2 The mode gradually changed sets transitional region 132C, so as to suppress pin 160 in shooting area 132A and non-shooting region Drastically change of driving sound when being moved between 132B etc..
Figure 18 is the expanded view of the inner peripheral surface of rotating cylinder 130.In figure, rotating cylinder 130 inner peripheral surface formed with pin The opposed cam path 133 of 170 (reference pictures 5,9), the cam path 134 opposed with pin 180 (reference picture 6,9), connection cam path 133 And the shared importing road 135 of each one end of cam path 134 and the periphery of rotating cylinder 130.During assembling, make rotating cylinder 130 with 3rd holding frame 115 (Fig. 6) relatively moves along optical axis direction, so that pin 170,180 is entered by shared importing road 135, Then rotating cylinder 130 is made to be relatively rotated with the 3rd holding frame 115, so as to which pin 170 is configured in cam path 133, by pin 180 are configured in cam path 134.
(it is referred to as when beyond shooting area (the 11st region) 133A and shooting when cam path 133 has shooting residing for pin 170 Non-shooting) non-shooting region 133B residing for pin 170.Non-shooting region 133B has to be connected and groove width with shooting area 133A With transitional region (the 13rd region) 133C gradually to be broadened away from shooting area 133A.Non- bat beyond transitional region 133C It is the 12nd region to take the photograph region 133B.
In shooting area 133A, pin 170 with sliding relatively in the state of the contacts side surfaces of cam path 133.Therefore, sell 170 in shooting area 133A by the side away from non-shooting region 133B it is mobile and with zoom lens close to long sight side Mode drive the 3rd holding frame 115, or by being connect to close to non-shooting region 133B side is mobile with zoom lens The mode of nearly wide-angle side drives the 3rd holding frame 115, is positioned thus, it is possible to the optical axis direction for carrying out the high zoom lens of precision. On the other hand, in the 133B of non-shooting region, pin 170 is in the state not contacted with cam path 133.
Here, although not shown, but when the minimum clearance of pin 170 and cam path 133 is set into Δ 1, if transitional region The minimum clearance Δ 1 in the 133B of non-shooting region beyond 133C is A, and the minimum clearance Δ 1 in transitional region 133C is B, then Although B increases away from shooting area 133A with pin 170, A > B are necessarily set up.In addition, the minimum in transitional region 133C Clearance delta 1 (=B) increases from the lateral non-shooting region 133B sides displacements of shooting area 133A with pin 170.So, so that most The mode that small―gap suture Δ 1 gradually changes sets transitional region 133C, so as to suppress pin 170 in shooting area 133A and non-bat Drastically change of driving sound when moving etc. is taken the photograph between the 133B of region.
In addition, in figure 18, cam path 134 has a case that (to refer to that lens group is located at the position that can be shot) during shooting (non-shooting when beyond shooting area (the 21st region) 134A and shooting residing for pin 180:Referring to that lens group is located at can not shoot Position situation) non-shooting region 134B residing for pin 180.Non-shooting region 134B have be connected with shooting area 134A and Groove width is with away from shooting area 134A and by transitional region (the 23rd region) 134C to narrow.It is non-beyond transitional region 134C Shooting area 134B is the 22nd region.
