Referring to fig. 4, 5 and 6, the present application provides a control method of a camera module 100 for controlling the compressive deformation of a liquid lens 120. It is understood that, with the camera module 100 structure described in the above embodiment, the following control method of the camera module 100 is applicable.

Specifically, the camera module 100 according to the first embodiment of the present application is taken as an example. In some embodiments, the projection of the first and second moving parts 131a and 133a is spaced from the projection of the lens group 150 in the extending direction of the optical axis 152. The first and second moving portions 131a and 133a have a relatively simple structure and are easily assembled and molded. Referring to fig. 7, in other embodiments, in the extending direction of the optical axis 152 of the lens group 150, the projection of the first moving part 131a at least partially overlaps the projection of the lens group 150, and the projection of the second moving part 133a at least partially overlaps the projection of the lens group 150. This kind of structure is favorable to reducing the thickness of camera module 100 in the extending direction of optical axis 152, and then is favorable to the miniaturized design of camera module 100. The first moving portion 131a and the second moving portion 133a are used for pressing the liquid lens 120, so that the liquid lens 120 is deformed and the shape of the light emitting surface is changed, thereby changing the angle of the emitted light. The pressing structure 130 may further include a first elastic sheet 131c and a second elastic sheet, the first elastic sheet 131c is connected to the first moving portion 131a and the base body 110 and is used for returning the first moving portion 131a, and the second elastic sheet is connected to the second moving portion 133a and the base body 110 and is used for returning the second moving portion 133 a. After the first moving portion 131a and the second moving portion 133a move relative to the initial positions, the first elastic piece 131c and the second elastic piece accumulate elastic potential energy, and after the camera module 100 finishes shooting, the first elastic piece 131c and the second elastic piece release the elastic potential energy, so that the first moving portion 131a and the second moving portion 133a can return to the initial positions.
Referring to fig. 5 and 6 in combination with fig. 7, in some embodiments, the pressing structure 130 includes a first magnet 131d and a second magnet 133d mounted on the base 110, the first electric control part 131b includes a first coil located in a magnetic field of the first magnet 131d, the second electric control part 133b includes a second coil located in a magnetic field of the second magnet 133d, the first coil is connected to the first moving part 131a, and the second coil is connected to the second moving part 133 a. When the first coil is energized, the first magnet 131d receives a force in the magnetic field, and the first moving portion 131a is driven to move to press the liquid lens 120. Similarly, when the second coil is energized, the force is applied to the magnetic field of the second magnet 133d, and the second moving portion 133a is moved to squeeze the liquid lens 120.
In other embodiments, the first moving portion 131a includes a first piezoelectric body, the first electronic control portion 131b includes a first electrode connected to the first piezoelectric body, the second moving portion 133a includes a second piezoelectric body, and the second electronic control portion 133b includes a second electrode connected to the second piezoelectric body.

Referring to fig. 5 and 6, the pressing structure 130 may further include a third moving portion 135a, a third electronic control portion 135b, a fourth moving portion 137a, and a fourth electronic control portion 137b, the structures of the third moving portion 135a and the fourth moving portion 137a may refer to the first moving portion 131a and the second moving portion 133a, and the structures of the third electronic control portion 135b and the fourth electronic control portion 137b may refer to the first electronic control portion 131b and the second electronic control portion 133b, which are not described herein again. The fourth moving portion 137a and the second moving portion 133a are provided on the first shaft 101, and the third moving portion 135a and the first moving portion 131a are provided on the second shaft 103. The first moving portion 131a and the third moving portion 135a may be provided as one set, and the second moving portion 133a and the fourth moving portion 137a may be provided as another set, so as to control the deflections of the liquid lens 120 about the first axis 101 and the second axis 103, respectively. Of course, the first moving part 131a and the third moving part 135a may also make the deformation of the liquid lens 120 to be centrosymmetric about the optical axis 152 for focusing the camera module 100; the second moving portion 133a and the fourth moving portion 137a may also make the deformation of the liquid lens 120 be centrosymmetric about the optical axis 152, so as to be used for focusing the camera module 100. Of course, in the embodiment shown in fig. 5 and 6, the camera module 100 may include a third magnet 135d and a fourth magnet 137d, where the third magnet 135d is disposed corresponding to the third electric control portion 135b, and the fourth magnet 137d is disposed corresponding to the fourth electric control portion 137b, which will not be described herein again.
Further, referring to fig. 7, the first moving part 131a, the second moving part 133a, the third moving part 135a, and the fourth moving part 137a are movable in the extending direction of the optical axis 152, respectively. Further, referring to fig. 5 and 6, the first moving portion 131a and the third moving portion 135a are centrosymmetric with respect to the optical axis 152, and the second moving portion 133a and the fourth moving portion 137a are centrosymmetric with respect to the optical axis 152. With this arrangement, the first axis 101 and the second axis 103 intersect with the optical axis 152, and the first moving part 131a, the third moving part 135a, the second moving part 133a, and the fourth moving part 137a are arranged symmetrically, so that the structure of the camera module 100 can be simplified, and the control of the camera module 100 can be simplified.
Further, in the embodiment shown in fig. 5 and 6, the first moving portion 131a, the second moving portion 133a, the third moving portion 135a, and the fourth moving portion 137a are sequentially disposed in the circumferential direction of the lens group 150, and the first shaft 101 and the second shaft 103 are perpendicular to each other. That is, the included angles between the first moving portion 131a and the second and fourth moving portions 133a and 137a are 90 degrees, respectively, and the included angles between the third moving portion 135a and the second and fourth moving portions 133a and 137a are 90 degrees, respectively. With this arrangement, a rectangular coordinate system can be established with the first axis 101 as the X axis, the second axis 103 as the Y axis, and the optical axis 152 of the camera module 100 as the Z axis, so that the camera module 100 can be easily controlled for anti-shake and focusing. In this embodiment, the first axis 101 and the second axis 103 are fixed in position relative to each other, and therefore, it is easier to control the deflection of the liquid lens 120 about the first axis 101 and the second axis 103.
Of course, it is understood that there may be more moving portions to form more points of application of force on the liquid lens 120 to more precisely control the deformation of the liquid lens 120. Of course, it is understood that the third moving unit 135a and the fourth moving unit 137a are not essential and thus may be omitted, and the positions of the first shaft 101 and the second shaft 103 may not be fixed after the third moving unit 135a and the fourth moving unit 137a are omitted.
Focusing and anti-shake control of the camera module 100 will be described below by taking an example in which the camera module 100 includes the first moving part 131a, the second moving part 133a, the third moving part 135a, and the fourth moving part 137 a.
S210, the first electrical control portion 131b is powered on to drive the first moving portion 131a to move and squeeze the liquid lens 120, and the third electrical control portion 135b is powered on to drive the third moving portion 135a to move and squeeze the liquid lens 120, so that the deformation of the liquid lens 120 is centrosymmetric with respect to the optical axis 152.
The liquid lens 120 includes a liquid coated in a flexible film, and after the first moving portion 131a and the third moving portion 135a move and press the liquid lens 120, the liquid in the liquid lens 120 flows and deforms, and the liquid near the pressed position gathers, so that the shape of the light emitting surface of the liquid lens 120 changes. Since the deformation of the liquid lens 120 is centrosymmetric about the optical axis 152, the focal length of the liquid lens 120 can be adjusted to meet the focusing requirement of the camera module 100. Of course, step S210 may be omitted.
S220, the first electric control portion 131b is powered on to drive the first moving portion 131a to move and press the liquid lens 120, so that the light emitting surface of the liquid lens 120 deflects around the first axis 101.
Specifically, the terminal device 10 includes a gyroscope, and the gyroscope can detect the shake amount of the terminal device 10 when the terminal device 10 shakes during shooting by the user using the camera module 100. After the first moving portion 131a moves and presses the liquid lens 120, the liquid in the liquid lens 120 is deformed by flowing, and the liquid near the pressed position is gathered, so that the light emitting surface of the liquid lens 120 is deflected around the first axis 101. The terminal device 10 may adjust the deflection of the liquid lens 120 in the first axis 101 according to the shake amount, so as to compensate for the shake of the camera module 100, so as to reduce the influence of the shake of the terminal device 10 on the image formation, and further obtain a higher quality image.
Further, in the step of deflecting the light exit surface of the liquid lens 120 around the first axis 101, the following steps may be further included:
s221, the third electronic control unit 135b is powered on to drive the third moving unit 135a to move and squeeze the liquid lens 120.
It can be understood that the third electrical control portion 135b may not be powered during the process of implementing the anti-shake of the first axis 101 by the camera module 100, that is, the third moving portion 135a may not apply pressure on the liquid lens 120. The liquid lens 120 can be deflected about the first axis 101 by the pressing force of the first moving portion 131 a. Of course, when the third electronic control unit 135b is powered on, the third moving unit 135a and the first moving unit 131a have different extrusion deformation amounts to the liquid lens 120, so that the light emitting surface of the liquid lens 120 can be deflected around the first axis 101, and the anti-shake function of the camera module 100 in the first axis 101 is further achieved. Under the condition that the first electric control part 131b and the third electric control part 135b are respectively electrified to apply the squeezing action to the liquid lens, the deflection of the light-emitting surface of the liquid lens is easy to obtain higher control precision, so as to improve the shooting performance of the camera module 100.
It can be understood that, during the focusing process of the camera module 100, the following steps may also be adopted:
s310, the first electric control unit 131b, the second electric control unit 133b, the third electric control unit 135b, and the fourth electric control unit 137b are respectively powered on to respectively drive the first moving unit 131a, the second moving unit 133a, the third moving unit 135a, and the fourth moving unit 137a to move and squeeze the liquid lens 120, so that the deformation of the liquid lens 120 is centrosymmetric with respect to the optical axis 152.
The liquid lens 120 includes a liquid coated in a flexible film, and when the first moving portion 131a, the second moving portion 133a, the third moving portion 135a, and the fourth moving portion 137a move and press the liquid lens 120, the liquid in the liquid lens 120 flows and deforms, and the liquid near the pressed position gathers, so that the shape of the light exit surface of the liquid lens 120 changes. Since the deformation of the liquid lens 120 is centrosymmetric about the optical axis 152, the focal length of the liquid lens 120 can be adjusted to meet the focusing requirement of the camera module 100. Since the first moving portion 131a, the second moving portion 133a, the third moving portion 135a, and the fourth moving portion 137a all press the liquid lens 120, when the force is applied to multiple points, the deformation of the liquid lens 120 is easily controlled, and high control accuracy can be obtained. Of course, step S310 may be omitted.
S320, the second electric control portion 133b is powered on to drive the second moving portion 133a to move and press the liquid lens 120, so that the light emitting surface of the liquid lens 120 deflects around the second axis 103.
The terminal device 10 includes a gyroscope that can detect the amount of shake of the terminal device 10 when the terminal device 10 generates shake during shooting by the user. After the second moving portion 133a moves and presses the liquid lens 120, the liquid in the liquid lens 120 flows and deforms, and the liquid near the pressed position gathers, so that the light emitting surface of the liquid lens 120 deflects around the second axis 103. The terminal device 10 may adjust the deflection of the liquid lens 120 on the second axis 103 according to the shake amount, so as to compensate for the shake of the camera module 100, so as to reduce the influence of the shake of the terminal device 10 on the image formation, and further obtain a higher quality image. It can be understood that the first electric control unit 131b and the second electric control unit 133b may be powered on simultaneously, or one of them may be powered on first and the other powered on later.
Further, the step of deflecting the light exit surface of the liquid lens 120 around the second axis 103 may include the steps of:
s321, the fourth electric control portion 137b is powered on to drive the fourth moving portion 137a to move and squeeze the liquid lens 120.
It can be understood that, in the process of implementing the anti-shake of the second shaft 103 by the camera module 100, the fourth electric control portion 137b may not be powered, that is, the fourth moving portion 137a may not apply pressure to the liquid lens 120. The liquid lens 120 can be deflected about the second axis 103 by the pressing force of the second moving portion 133 a. Of course, when the fourth electronic control unit 137b is powered on, the fourth moving unit 137a and the second moving unit 133a have different extrusion deformation amounts to the liquid lens 120, so that the light emitting surface of the liquid lens 120 can be deflected around the second axis 103, and the anti-shake function of the camera module 100 on the second axis 103 is further achieved. Under the condition that the second electric control part 133b and the fourth electric control part 137b are respectively electrified to apply a squeezing action to the liquid lens, the deflection of the light-emitting surface of the liquid lens 120 is easy to obtain higher control precision, so as to improve the shooting performance of the camera module 100.
