Referring to fig. 3, in the driving assembly 60, the driving member 640 is sleeved on the push rod 660, the outer surface of the driving member 640 is provided with a gear structure 646, the driving member 640 is in driving connection with the driving motor 620 through the gear structure 646, the first transmission part 642 is disposed on the inner surface of the driving member 640, and the second transmission part 644 is disposed at one end of the driving member 640 away from the camera module 40.

The transmission member 640 is provided with a plurality of structures at three different positions, so that different functions can be realized. Specifically, the gear structure 646 on the outer surface of the transmission member 640 may be used to be in driving connection with the driving motor 620, and the driving motor 620 may drive the transmission member 640 to rotate through the gear structure 646. The first transmission part 642 is disposed on an inner surface of the transmission part 640 and is engaged with the push rod 660 to realize the linear motion of the push rod 660. The second transmission portion 644 is disposed at one end of the transmission member 640, and when the push rod 660 moves for a certain distance, the second assembly portion 664 cooperates with the second transmission portion 644 to rotate the push rod 660.

Referring to fig. 7 and 8, fig. 7 is a schematic view of a second structure inside the camera module and the driving assembly shown in fig. 2, and fig. 8 is an enlarged schematic view of a portion X in the driving assembly shown in fig. 7. The driving assembly 60 further includes a guiding groove 682, and the push rod 660 further includes a limiting post 666, the limiting post 666 protruding from the surface of the push rod 660, when the push rod 660 moves along the axial direction of the push rod 660, the limiting post 666 is located in the guiding groove 682 to limit the rotation of the push rod 660. The driving motor 620 drives the transmission part, and in the process of linear motion of the transmission part driving push rod 660, the tangential force of the transmission part 640 can be offset through the guide groove 682 and the limiting column 666, so that the push rod 660 is ensured to only do axial motion, and the rotary motion is eliminated.

It should be noted that, when the camera module 40 is still in the housing, the limiting column 666 can be always located in the guiding groove 682, which not only can offset the tangential force of the transmission member 640, but also can ensure the movement path of the push rod 660. When camera module 40 is located the casing when external, spacing post 666 and guide slot 682 separate, and spacing post 666 and guide slot 682 no longer restrict push rod 660's motion, and driving medium 640 can drive spacing post 666 and rotate to it is rotatory to drive camera module.

When camera module 40 is located outside the casing, second transmission portion 644 and second assembly portion 664 can cooperate the joint, also can understand, and push rod 660 drives camera module 40 and removes the extreme position outside the casing, and second transmission portion 644 and second assembly portion 664 can cooperate the joint, and after the cooperation joint, push rod 660 can follow the driving medium 640 rotatory to it is rotatory to drive camera module 40. Illustratively, the second transmission portion 644 includes first serrations, and the second fitting portion 664 includes second serrations which are capable of being driven in mesh with the first serrations to rotate the push rod 660. In another example, the second transmission part 644 can be one or more protrusions, and the second assembly part 664 can be one or more corresponding grooves, which are determined by the snap fit of the protrusions and the grooves, so as to rotate the push rod 660.

Referring to fig. 7 and 8 in combination with fig. 9, fig. 9 is a schematic structural diagram of a retainer ring in the driving assembly shown in fig. 7.

The driving assembly 60 further includes a bracket 680, a limiting portion 688 is disposed on the bracket 680, the limiting portion 688 has a through hole 6882, the push rod 660 penetrates through the through hole 6882, a retaining ring 668 is disposed at the other end of the push rod 660, and the retaining ring 668 is disposed on one side of the limiting portion 688. The push rod 660 can be linearly moved along the through hole 6882 of the limiting portion 688, and the limiting portion 688 can support the push rod 660. The stopper 688 may limit a distance of the linear motion of the push rod 660, and it is understood that when the stopper 668 at the other end of the push rod 660 moves from a position away from the stopper 688 to abut against the stopper 688, the stopper is in a limit state of the linear motion of the push rod 660, and the camera module also moves out of the housing 20 at this time.

At this time, the push rod 660 can drive the retainer ring 668 to rotate, and the retainer ring 668 is limited between the stopper 689 and the limiting part 688. When the transmission member 640 drives the push rod 660 to rotate, the push rod 660 only rotates without axial movement, so that the second transmission part 644 is separated from the second assembling part 664, until the push rod rotates by one turn, i.e., the notch 6682 of the retainer ring 668 corresponds to the stopper 689, at this time, the stopper 689 cannot limit the push rod 660 to do linear movement, the second assembling part 664 of the push rod 660 can be separated from the second transmission part 644 of the transmission member 640, and the push rod 660 can drive the camera module to move into the housing.

Of course, when the transmission member drives the push rod to rotate, the driving motor may have only one rotation direction (i.e. forward rotation or reverse rotation) to ensure the stability of the rotation of the camera module.

It should be noted that, if the driving motor rotates forward to move the push rod out of the housing, when the notch of the retainer corresponds to the position of the stopper, the driving motor rotates backward to separate the second transmission portion from the second assembly portion, and the push rod moves into the housing, i.e., the camera module is driven to return into the housing. On the contrary, if the driving motor rotates reversely to enable the push rod to move towards the outside of the shell, when the notch of the check ring corresponds to the position of the stop block, the driving motor rotates forwards to enable the second transmission part and the second assembly part to be separated, and the push rod moves towards the inside of the shell, so that the camera module is driven to return to the inside of the shell.

It should be noted that the notch 6682 of the retaining ring 668 and the retaining post 666 of the plunger 660 may be correspondingly configured, such that the retaining post 666 may be re-engaged in the channel 682 after the position along the notch 6682 is moved. Similarly, the retention post 666 moves within the channel 682 and the retention ring 668 can pass through the notch 6682 past the stop 689 and into the space between the stop 689 and the retention portion 688.
