Example one
Referring to fig. 1 to fig. 3 together, a structure of a camera module 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is schematically illustrated, in which the camera module 100 includes a substrate 10, a photosensitive element 11, a first lens group 12, a second lens group 13, an adjustable lens 14, and a metal circuit layer 15, the photosensitive element 11 is disposed on the substrate 10, the first lens group 12 includes a first lens barrel 121 and a first lens group 122 mounted on the first lens barrel 121, the first lens barrel 121 is disposed on the substrate 10, an image side of the first lens barrel 121 faces the photosensitive element 11, a first receiving groove 121a is disposed on an object side end of the first lens barrel 121, the second lens group 13 includes a second lens barrel 131 and a second lens group 132 mounted on the second lens barrel 131, the second lens barrel 131 is disposed on an object side end of the first lens barrel 121, the adjustable lens 14 is disposed in the first receiving groove 121a, and the metal circuit layer 15 is formed on a surface of the first lens barrel 121, the metal wiring layer 15 is electrically connected to the tunable lens 14 and the substrate 10.
In the embodiment, the first lens barrel 121 is disposed on the substrate 10, the second lens barrel 131 is disposed on the object side end of the first lens barrel 121, and the adjustable lens 14 is disposed in the first accommodating groove 121a of the first lens barrel 121, so that the adjustable lens 14 is located between the first lens group 12 and the second lens group 13, and the adjustable lens 14 is disposed in the middle of the camera module 100. It is understood that, compared to the front-mounted design of the adjustable lens 14 in the camera module 100 (the adjustable lens 14 is the lens group closest to the object side in the camera module 100) in the related art, the present embodiment has many advantages by using the design with the adjustable lens 14 mounted in the middle. In one aspect, the lens group closest to the object side in the camera module 100 is the second lens group 13, and in this case, the second lens group 13 can adopt a lens with a small head to reduce the overall size of the camera module 100, and in particular, the camera module 100 can be used for a front camera of an electronic device. On the other hand, considering that the surface of the adjustable lens 14 is a thin film, the surface is likely to be damaged, so that the adjustable lens 14 can be protected by the adjustable lens 14 located between the first lens group 12 and the second lens group 13, the adjustable lens 14 is prevented from being damaged or contaminated by foreign objects (dust, sewage, etc.), and a better dustproof effect is achieved. In addition, the adjustable lens 14 adopts a mid-set design, when the camera module 100 is assembled, the adjustable lens 14, the first lens group 12 and the second lens group 13 can be respectively adjusted in position and then fixed, the adjustment processes are not mutually uniform, the assembly tolerance can be reduced, and the assembly precision of the camera module 100 is improved.
Meanwhile, the metal circuit layer 15 is electrically connected to the adjustable lens 14 and the substrate 10, so that the substrate 10 can energize the adjustable lens 14 to deform the adjustable lens 14, and adjust the focal length of the adjustable lens 14, thereby realizing the focusing of the camera module 100. Moreover, considering that the internal structure of the camera module 100 is complex, in the related art, when designing the electrical connection traces between the adjustable lens 14 and the substrate 10, because a certain distance exists between the adjustable lens 14 and the substrate 10, and the electrical connection traces of the adjustable lens 14 are usually limited by a part of devices or a part of structures in the camera module 100, the routing needs to be bypassed or avoided, which results in the complex electrical connection traces of the adjustable lens 14 in the related art. However, in the present embodiment, while the first barrel 121 is used to set the adjustable lens 14, the metal circuit layer 15 is formed on the surface of the first barrel 121, the arrangement of the metal circuit layer 15 in the camera module 100 is not affected by the internal structure of the camera module 100, and the routing or avoidance is not required, so that the electrical connection line of the adjustable lens 14 is relatively simple. Moreover, the metal circuit layer 15 and the first lens barrel 121 are formed into a whole, when the camera module 100 is assembled, the metal circuit layer 15 can be installed in place while the first lens barrel 121 is installed, the metal circuit layer 15 does not need to be installed separately, and the difficulty of the assembling process of the camera module 100 is low. In addition, the metal circuit layer 15 is formed on the surface of the first lens barrel 121, and the metal circuit layer 15 can be disposed by using the first lens barrel 121 of the camera module 100 itself, and there is no need to additionally add a bracket or other bearing structures to the metal circuit layer 15, so that the structure of the camera module 100 is simpler, the material is saved, and the miniaturization design of the camera module 100 is realized.
It can be known that, the adjustable lens 14 in the middle of the camera module 100 of this embodiment is arranged, when the focusing capability of the camera module 100 is improved, the first lens barrel 121 that the camera module 100 itself has can be utilized to set the adjustable lens 14, it is not necessary to additionally add a bracket or other structures for setting the adjustable lens 14, so that the structure of the camera module 100 is simpler, and the first lens barrel 121 adopts the mode that the first accommodating groove 121a sets the adjustable lens 14, the space occupied by the adjustable lens 14 can be reduced, and the total length of the camera module 100 is smaller.
During assembly, the adjustable lens 14 is disposed in the first accommodating groove 121a, so that the adjustable lens 14 and the first lens group 12 are integrated into a whole, and then the whole, the second lens group 13, the substrate 10 and the photosensitive element 11 are subjected to Active focusing (AA) assembly, so that the assembly process of the camera module 100 is simple.
Illustratively, the metal circuit layer 15 is formed on the surface of the first barrel 121 by a laser direct structuring technique. Wherein, the laser Direct structuring technology is lds (laser Direct structuring). It can be understood that, by adopting the laser direct structuring technology, the metal circuit layer 15 is formed on the surface of the first barrel 121, which can reduce the cost, and the stability of the metal circuit layer 15 is higher, the overall volume is smaller, the overall volume of the camera module 100 can be effectively reduced, and the laser direct structuring technology is beneficial to being applied to miniaturized and light and thin electronic equipment.
Optionally, the surface roughness of the metal wiring layer 15 is less than or equal to 1.6 μm. It can be understood that, considering that the metal circuit layer 15 and the tunable lens 14 are generally electrically connected by a gold wire, when the gold wire is bonded on the metal circuit layer 15, the greater the surface roughness of the metal circuit layer 15 is, the more uneven the surface of the metal circuit layer 15 is, the smaller the effective contact area between the metal circuit layer 15 and the gold wire is. Therefore, the surface roughness of the metal circuit layer 15 may be less than or equal to 1.6 μm, the surface of the metal circuit layer 15 is flat, the effective contact area with the gold wire is large, the connection strength between the gold wire and the metal circuit layer 15 is high, the electrical connection reliability between the metal circuit layer 15 and the tunable lens 14 can be improved, and the surface roughness of the metal circuit layer 15 may be 1.6 μm, 0.8 μm, 0.4 μm, 0.2 μm, and the like, which is not limited in this embodiment.
Further, as shown in fig. 4, the metal circuit layer 15 includes a copper layer 15a, a nickel layer 15b, and a gold layer 15c sequentially stacked on the surface of the first barrel 121, and the thickness of the gold layer 15c is greater than or equal to 0.1 μm. It can be understood that, considering that the metal circuit layer 15 and the tunable lens 14 are usually electrically connected by a gold wire, the surface of the metal circuit layer 15 farthest from the first barrel 121 adopts a gold layer 15c, and when a gold wire is bonded on the gold layer 15c, because the material is the same, the degree of fusion of the gold wire and the metal circuit layer 15 is higher, and the connection strength is higher. In other words, if the thickness of the gold layer 15c is less than 0.1 μm, the thickness of the gold layer 15c is small, and when gold wires are formed on the metal wiring layer 15, some of the gold wires are bonded to the metal layers (the copper layer 15a and the nickel layer 15 b) other than the gold layer 15c, and the connection strength between the gold wires and the metal wiring layer 15 is low. Therefore, the thickness of the metal circuit layer 15 may be greater than or equal to 0.1 μm, so that the gold wires are all bonded to the gold layer 15c, the connection strength between the gold wires and the metal circuit layer 15 is improved, and the electrical connection reliability between the metal circuit layer 15 and the tunable lens 14 is improved, and the thickness of the metal circuit layer 15 may be 0.1 μm, 0.2 μm, 0.3 μm, 0.4 μm, 0.5 μm, and the like, which is not particularly limited in this embodiment.
In the present embodiment, as shown in fig. 5, the metal circuit layer 15 includes a first section 151, an intermediate section 152 and a second section 153 connected in sequence, the first section 151 is formed on an end surface of an object side end of the first barrel 121, the first section 151 is electrically connected to the tunable lens 14, the intermediate section 152 is formed on a peripheral side surface of the first barrel 121 and extends from the first section 151 to the substrate 10, the second section 153 is formed on a peripheral side surface of an image side end of the first barrel 121, and the second section 153 is electrically connected to the substrate 10. It can be understood that, by forming the first segment 151 on the end surface of the object side end of the first barrel 121, the first segment 151 can be disposed as close to the adjustable lens 14 as possible, the distance between the first segment 151 and the adjustable lens 14 is shortened, the adjustable lens 14 can be electrically connected to the first segment 151, the difficulty of bonding a gold wire between the first segment 151 and the adjustable lens 14 is reduced, and because the peripheral side surface of the first barrel 121 is connected to the end surface of the object side end of the first barrel 121, the middle segment 152 is formed by the peripheral side surface of the first barrel 121 and extends to the second segment 153 formed on the peripheral side surface of the image side end of the first barrel 121, the metal circuit layer 15 is formed by the structure of the first barrel 121, the electrical connection circuit between the adjustable lens 14 and the substrate 10 can be simplified, and the second segment 153 is as close to the substrate 10 as possible, the distance between the second segment 153 and the substrate 10 can be shortened, the electrical connection between the substrate 10 and the second segment 153 is facilitated, the difficulty of the assembly process of the camera module 100 is effectively reduced.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 3 and fig. 5, a second receiving groove 121b communicating with the first receiving groove 121a is further disposed on an end surface of the object-side end of the first barrel 121, an end of the first section 151 away from the middle section 152 is disposed in the second receiving groove 121b, and an end of the first section 151 away from the middle section 152 is electrically connected to the adjustable lens 14 through a gold wire. It can be understood that, by disposing the end of the first segment 151 away from the intermediate segment 152 in the second receiving groove 121b, on the one hand, the space occupied by the metal wiring layer 15 can be reduced, and the total length of the camera module 100 can be reduced due to the end surface of the object-side end of the first barrel 121, i.e., the space between the first lens group 12 and the second lens group 13. On the other hand, by disposing the end of the first segment 151 away from the middle segment 152 in the second receiving groove 121b, the end of the first segment 151 away from the middle segment 152 is lower than the surface of the adjustable lens 14 facing the second lens group 13 (the surface provided with the electrical connection portion electrically connected with the first segment 151) along the optical axis direction of the camera module 100, and when the adjustable lens 14 and the end of the first segment 151 away from the middle segment 152 (provided with the electrical connection portion) are electrically connected by a gold wire, the arc height of the gold wire can be effectively reduced, that is, the space occupied by the gold wire along the optical axis direction of the camera module 100 is reduced, and the total length of the camera module 100 can be reduced.
For example, as shown in fig. 2 and fig. 3, a first electrical connection portion is disposed on a surface of the adjustable lens 14 facing the object side, a second electrical connection portion is disposed at an end of the first segment 151 away from the intermediate segment 152, the second electrical connection portion is electrically connected to the first electrical connection portion through a gold wire, a height difference between the first electrical connection portion and the second electrical connection portion along the optical axis of the camera module 100 is h, and h is greater than or equal to 0.05mm and less than or equal to 0.2 mm. Since the first and second electrical parts are not explicitly shown in the drawings, and since the first and second electrical parts are small, the height difference h between the object-side-facing surface of the adjustable lens 14 and the first object-side-facing surface is approximately expressed in fig. 2 as a height difference between the first electrical part and the second electrical part. It can be understood that, if the height difference h between the first electrical connection part and the second electrical connection part is less than 0.05mm, the height difference is small, the arc height of the gold wire connecting the first electrical connection part and the second electrical connection part is large, the space occupied by the gold wire is large, and the total length of the camera module 100 is large. If the height difference h between the first electric connection part and the second electric connection part is larger than 0.2mm, the height difference is larger, the radian of the gold wire is smaller, the larger the pulling degree of the first electric connection part and the second electric connection part on the two ends of the gold wire is, the higher the risk that the gold wire is pulled and broken is. Therefore, the height difference h between the first electrical connection part and the second electrical connection part may be 0.05mm or more and 0.2mm or less, the arc height of the gold wire is small, the space occupied by the gold wire is small, the total length of the camera module 100 is small, and the radian of the gold wire is large, so that the risk of breaking the gold wire due to pulling can be reduced, and the height difference h between the first electrical connection part and the second electrical connection part may be 0.05mm, 0.08mm, 0.11mm, 0.14mm, 0.17mm, 0.2mm, and the like, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment.
Optionally, the adjustable lens 14 is electrically connected to the first segment 151 through a gold wire (not shown), and a position-avoiding groove 131a is disposed on a surface of the second barrel 131 facing the first barrel 121, where the position-avoiding groove 131a is used for avoiding the gold wire. It can be understood that, avoiding the gold wire through the avoiding groove 131a can provide a setting space for the gold wire, and on the other hand, can avoid the situation that the gold wire interferes with the second barrel 131 to cause damage to the gold wire, thereby ensuring the electrical connection between the adjustable lens 14 and the first segment 151.
In some embodiments, the image capturing module 100 further includes a base 16 and a filter 17, the base 16 is disposed on the substrate 10, the base 16 is disposed with a light hole 16a, the light hole 16a is used for allowing light to irradiate the light sensing element 11, the first barrel 121 is disposed on a side of the base 16 away from the substrate 10 and is disposed corresponding to the light hole 16a, and the filter 17 covers the light hole 16 a. It can be understood that the light-passing hole 16a is formed in the base 16 to allow light to be emitted to the photosensitive element 11, and the optical filter 17 covering the light-passing hole 16a is used to filter stray light, so as to improve the accuracy of light received by the photosensitive element 11, thereby improving the imaging quality of the camera module 100.
Further, a third receiving groove 16b communicating with the light passing hole 16a is disposed on a side of the base 16 away from the substrate 10, and the filter 17 is disposed in the third receiving groove 16 b. It can be understood that, by disposing the optical filter 17 in the third receiving groove 16b, the space occupied by the optical filter 17 can be reduced, so as to reduce the overall length of the camera module 100, and meet the miniaturization design of the electronic device, in particular, the camera module 100 can be used for a front camera of the electronic device.
Exemplarily, a through groove 16c is formed on the peripheral side surface of the base 16, the through groove 16c penetrates through the surface of the base 16 facing the image side and the surface facing the object side, an extension portion 121c is formed on the end surface of the image side end of the first barrel 121, the extension portion 121c extends toward the substrate 10 along the through groove 16c, and one end of the metal circuit layer 15, which is electrically connected to the substrate 10, is formed on the surface of the extension portion 121 c. It can be understood that, on the one hand, the through slot 16c of the base 16 accommodates the extension 121c, so that the space occupied by the extension 121c can be reduced, and the overall volume of the camera module 100 can be reduced. On the other hand, the extending portion 121c extends toward the substrate 10, so that the end of the metal circuit layer 15 electrically connected to the substrate 10 is as close to the substrate 10 as possible, the distance between the two is shortened, the metal circuit layer 15 is electrically connected to the substrate 10, and the difficulty of the assembly process of the camera module 100 is reduced.
In some embodiments, the peripheral side surface of the tunable lens 14 abuts against the sidewall of the first receiving groove 121 a. It can be understood that, on the one hand, when the adjustable lens 14 is assembled with the first barrel 121, the peripheral side surface of the adjustable lens 14 can abut against the sidewall of the first accommodating groove 121a, so as to position the adjustable lens 14, thereby improving the assembly precision and reducing the difficulty of the assembly process. On the other hand, after the adjustable lens 14 is assembled with the first barrel 121, the peripheral side surface of the adjustable lens 14 abuts against the side wall of the first accommodating groove 121a, and the side wall of the first accommodating groove 121a can limit the adjustable lens 14, so as to prevent the relative position of the adjustable lens 14 relative to the first accommodating groove 121a (i.e., the first barrel 121) from changing, which may cause the change of the relative position of the first lens group 12, the adjustable lens 14, and the second lens group 13, and further affect the optical performance of the camera module 100.
Optionally, the first receiving groove 121a has an outer dimension adapted to the adjustable lens 14. For example, the tunable lens 14 of the present embodiment is square, and the first accommodating groove 121a is a square groove matching with the external dimension of the tunable lens 14. In some other embodiments, the tunable lens 14 may have a circular shape, and the first receiving groove 121a may match with a circular groove, which is not limited in this embodiment.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 2 and 3 again, the surface of the tunable lens 14 facing the image side may be adhered to the bottom surface of the first accommodating cavity 121a, so as to fix the tunable lens 14 in the first accommodating cavity 121 a.
Optionally, the end surface of the object-side end of the first barrel 121 is further provided with a plurality of dispensing grooves 121d communicated with the first accommodating groove 121a, the dispensing grooves 121d are circumferentially distributed around the first accommodating groove 121a, and the dispensing grooves 121d are filled with a first adhesive medium (not shown) to adhere and fix the adjustable lens 14 to the first accommodating groove 121 a. It is understood that, on the one hand, if the tunable lens 14 and the first receiving groove 121a have no other bonding position, the tunable lens 14 is fixed to the first receiving groove 121a by the first bonding medium of the plurality of glue grooves 121d, and if the tunable lens 14 and the first receiving groove 121a have other bonding position (for example, the surface of the tunable lens 14 facing the image side can be bonded to the bottom surface of the first receiving groove 121 a), the reliability of fixing the tunable lens 14 to the first receiving groove 121a by the first bonding medium of the plurality of glue grooves 121d can be improved. On the other hand, the plurality of glue dispensing grooves 121d are circumferentially distributed around the first receiving groove 121a, so that the tunable lens 14 and the first receiving groove 121a have a plurality of bonding positions, and are circumferentially distributed around the tunable lens 14, which can improve the bonding reliability of the tunable lens 14 and the first receiving groove 121a, and when the first bonding medium is subjected to variation (expansion with heat and contraction with cold), the acting forces of the first bonding medium of each glue dispensing groove 121d on the tunable lens 14 can be mutually submitted, thereby reducing the risk that the tunable lens 14 is subjected to the relative position change of the first receiving groove 121a due to the acting force generated when the first bonding medium is varied, and the optical performance of the camera module 100 is reduced.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 5, a cut surface 131b is disposed on the peripheral side of the second barrel 131, the cut surface 131b is disposed in a staggered manner from the peripheral side surface of the object-side end of the first barrel 121 to expose a portion of the end surface of the object-side end of the first barrel 121, the surface of the second barrel 131 facing the first barrel 121 is fixedly bonded to the end surface of the object-side end of the first barrel 121 through a second bonding medium 18, a notch 18a is disposed at a position of the second bonding medium 18 corresponding to the cut surface 131b, the cut surface 131b is fixedly bonded to the end surface of the object-side end of the first barrel 121 through a third bonding medium 19, and the third bonding medium 19 covers the notch 18 a. It can be understood that, when the camera module 100 is assembled, after the first barrel 121 and the second barrel 131 are bonded by the second bonding medium 18, when the second bonding medium 18 is baked and cured, the gap 18a can be used for escaping air, so as to avoid the occurrence of a situation that the relative position of the first barrel 121 and the second barrel 131 is changed due to the expansion of air caused by a high temperature during baking, and improve the assembly accuracy. After the second adhesive medium 18 is cured, the notch 18a is covered with the third adhesive medium 19, which improves the adhesion strength between the first barrel 121 and the second barrel 131, and prevents foreign matter from entering the notch 18a and affecting the performance of the imaging module 100.
Exemplarily, the distance from the tangent plane 131b to the peripheral side of the object side end of the first barrel 121 is d1,d1Not less than 0.3 mm. It is understood that, when the camera module 100 is assembled, the third adhesive medium 19 connecting the first barrel 121 and the second barrel 131 is formed by dispensing with a glue needle, and the diameter of the glue needle is usually 0.3mm or more, therefore, if the distance d is larger than the above-mentioned distance d1If the diameter is less than 0.3mm, when dispensing is performed at a position between the tangent plane 131b and the peripheral side surface of the object-side end of the first barrel 121 to form the third adhesive medium 19, the needle head of the glue needle may collide with the second barrel 131 to cause the second barrel 131 to displace relative to the first barrel 121, which affects the assembly precision of the camera module 100, and during dispensing, the glue easily overflows from the end surface of the object-side end of the first barrel 121, even flows to the substrate 10, which affects the performance of the camera module 100. Therefore, the distance d from the tangent plane 131b to the peripheral side of the object side end of the first barrel 1211Can be d1Not less than 0.3mm, the displacement of the second lens barrel 131 relative to the first lens barrel 121 caused by the collision between the needle head of the glue needle and the second lens barrel 131 is avoided, and the situation that glue easily overflows from the end face of the object side end of the first lens barrel 121 and even flows to the substrate 10 when the glue needle is dispensed is avoided, and d1May be 0.3mm, 0.4mm, 0.5mm, 0.6mm, 0.7mm, 0.8mm, etc., and this embodiment is not particularly limited thereto.
Further, the tangent plane 131b is an inclined plane, and the tangent plane 131b is inclined to the end surface of the object-side end of the first barrel 121, or the tangent plane 131b is a stepped plane. It can be understood that, by the tangent plane 131b being an inclined plane or a stepped plane, when the camera module 100 is assembled, the risk that the second barrel 131 is displaced relative to the first barrel 121 due to the collision between the needle of the plastic needle and the second barrel 131 can be further reduced, and the assembly accuracy of the camera module 100 is improved. In addition, the present embodiment provides a plurality of different types of cutting surfaces 131b, which can be selected according to actual situations to meet different use requirements.
Illustratively, the gap 18a has a width d2,0.5mm≤d2Less than or equal to 2 mm. It will be appreciated that if the width d of the notch 18a is such that2If the thickness is less than 0.5mm, when the second adhesive medium 18 is baked and cured, the gap 18a for escaping air is small, the efficiency of escaping air is low, and the risk of changing the relative position of the first lens barrel 121 and the second lens barrel 131 caused by the expansion of air due to the lack of time for escaping air exists. If the width d of the notch 18a is2If the thickness is larger than 2mm, the area of the second bonding medium 18 is small, the bonding area between the first barrel 121 and the second barrel 131 is small, and the bonding strength is low. Thus, the width d of the notch 18a2D can be more than or equal to 0.5mm22mm or less, the situation that the relative positions of the first lens barrel 121 and the second lens barrel 131 are changed due to insufficient escape time when the second bonding medium 18 is baked and cured is avoided, the bonding strength of the first lens barrel 121 and the second lens barrel 131 can be improved, and the width d of the gap 18a2May be 0.5mm, 0.7mm, 0.9mm, 1.1mm, 1.3mm, 1.5mm, 1.8mm, 2mm, etc., and this is not particularly limited in this embodiment.
Further, the third adhesive medium 19 has a width d3,1mm≤d3Less than or equal to 3 mm. It will be appreciated that if the width d of the third bonding medium 19 is large3< 1mm, there is a risk that the third adhesive medium 19 cannot completely cover the notch 18 a. If the width d of the third adhesive medium 193If the third adhesive agent 19 has already met the requirements of the cover gap 18a, it is wasted if it is greater than 3 mm. Therefore, the width d of the third adhesive medium 193D can be 1mm or less3Less than or equal to 3mm, ensures that the third bonding medium 19 completely covers the gap 18a, can save materials, and has a width d of the second bonding level3May be 1mm, 1.3mm, 1.6mm, 1.9mm, 2.2mm, 2.5mm, 2.8mm, 3mm, etc., and this embodiment is not particularly limited thereto.
Alternatively, the substrate 10 may be any one of a hard circuit board, a rigid-flex board, or a flexible circuit board. It is understood that different types of the substrate 10 can be selected according to actual situations to meet different use requirements, and the embodiment is not particularly limited thereto.

Meanwhile, the metal circuit layer 15 is formed on the surface of the first barrel 121, and the metal circuit layer 15 is electrically connected to the adjustable lens 14 and the substrate 10, so that the substrate 10 can energize the adjustable lens 14 to deform the adjustable lens 14, and adjust the focal length of the adjustable lens 14, thereby realizing focusing of the camera module 100. Moreover, the metal circuit layer 15 and the first lens barrel 121 are formed into a whole, the metal circuit layer 15 is arranged by the first lens barrel 121, so that the electrical connection circuit of the adjustable lens 14 is simplified, and when the camera module 100 is assembled, the first lens barrel 121 can install the metal circuit layer 15 in place at the same time, the electrical connection circuit of the adjustable lens 14 does not need to be installed separately, and the difficulty of the assembly process of the camera module 100 is low.

EXAMPLE III
Please refer to fig. 7, which is a flowchart illustrating an assembly method of a camera module according to a third embodiment of the present invention, where the assembly method is applied to the camera module according to the first embodiment, and the specific structure of the camera module can refer to the first embodiment and is not described again. The assembling method comprises the following steps:
s301, mounting the photosensitive element on the substrate.
It is understood that, by performing step S301, the photosensitive element is fixed on the substrate, and the photosensitive element is electrically connected to the substrate.
S302, the adjustable lens is installed in the first accommodating groove and electrically connected with the adjustable lens and the metal circuit layer.
It should be noted that, the assembling method is applied to the camera module according to the first embodiment, and as can be seen from the first embodiment, the adjustable lens is connected to the first receiving groove in an adhesion manner, and the step S302 may specifically be: the surface of the adjustable lens facing the image side can be bonded to the bottom surface of the first accommodating groove, bonding media are added to each glue dispensing groove so as to further bond and fix the adjustable lens to the first accommodating groove, Ultraviolet Curing (UV) is carried out, the adjustable lens is electrically connected with the metal circuit layer in a gold wire bonding mode, and then baking is carried out.
More specifically, the process of electrically connecting the tunable lens to the metal circuit layer by using a gold wire may be: the method comprises the steps of setting preset gold wire related parameters (such as diameter, arc height and the like) in gold wire bonding equipment (such as a gold wire bonding machine), placing a first lens group (a first lens barrel) on a jig of the equipment, fixing the first lens group (such as vacuum suction fixing), moving a ceramic nozzle of the equipment to enable a gold wire ball to be located at a second electric connection part (Pad and a bonding Pad) on one end (located in a second accommodating groove) of a metal circuit layer, moving the ceramic nozzle along a preset path and enabling the ceramic nozzle to move to the surface of the adjustable lens facing the object side, and enabling the ceramic nozzle to enable the gold wire ball to be located at the first electric connection part (Pad and the bonding Pad) of the adjustable lens again, so that the electric connection of the adjustable lens and the metal circuit layer is completed.
And S303, conducting the metal circuit layer and the substrate in the alignment equipment, and actively aligning the adjustable lens, the first mirror group, the second mirror group and the photosensitive element.
It can be understood that, the metal circuit layer and the substrate are conducted in the alignment device, and the circuit provided by the alignment device is conducted, so that the situation that when the metal circuit layer and the substrate are conducted, the relative position of the first lens barrel and the substrate is fixed to influence the active alignment is avoided, and the focus of the adjustable lens can be controlled through the substrate when the active alignment is subsequently conducted, thereby ensuring the normal active alignment. After the active alignment is completed, the conduction between the metal circuit layer and the substrate can be released.
And when the assembly of the first lens group is completed, the metal circuit layer and the first lens cone form a whole, so that the positioning assembly of the metal circuit layer in the camera module can be completed simultaneously, and the difficulty of the manufacture procedure of the camera module is reduced.

It can be understood that, after step S304 is performed, the positions of the components of the camera module are fixed and the mechanical assembly of the components can be completed.
When the first mirror group and the second mirror group are fixed by bonding, the bonding may be performed twice. The end face of the image side end of the first lens group is bonded to the surface of the second lens group facing the object side, and a gap for air escape is left in the bonding (e.g., the first bonding medium in the first embodiment), and after curing, further glue is added (e.g., the second bonding medium in the first embodiment) to seal the gap. It can be understood that, when bonding for the first time, can bond first mirror group and second mirror group fixedly, and the breach that leaves can be used to escape gas when the solidification, and after the solidification, bonding for the second time can seal this breach and prevent that foreign matter (water or dust) from entering into the camera module.
And S305, welding the metal circuit layer and the substrate for electric connection.
It can be understood that, after the step S305 is performed, the substrate and the tunable lens are conducted through the metal circuit layer, and at this time, the electrical assembly between the components of the camera module is completed.
The third embodiment of the invention provides an assembly method of a camera module, and by implementing the assembly method, the first lens cone and the metal circuit layer can be positioned and assembled at the same time, so that the assembly process difficulty of the camera module is reduced.
