The elastic member 130 is disposed between the first bracket 110 and the second bracket 120, and the elastic member 130 includes a first connection portion 131, a second connection portion 132, and an elastic portion 133 connecting the first connection portion 131 and the second connection portion 132, wherein the first connection portion 131 is connected with the first bracket 110, the second connection portion 132 is connected with the second bracket 120, and the elastic portion 133 is used for providing elastic force when the second bracket 120 moves relative to the first bracket 110.

The first bracket 110 may include a receiving portion 111 and a cover portion 112 disposed around the receiving portion 111, where the receiving portion 111 is used for mounting the lens 300, the cover portion 112 is fixedly connected with the base plate 140 and covers the second bracket 120, and the first bracket 110 may be used as a mounting bracket for the lens 300 and a housing of the camera module 10. The receiving portion 111 may provide a receiving hole for receiving the lens 300 according to a structure of the lens 300, and the lens 300 may be fixedly disposed in the receiving hole. The first connection portion 131 of the elastic member 130 may be connected with the cover portion 112.

The second bracket 120 may include a housing 1201, where the housing 1201 includes a cover portion 121 and a raised portion 122, the cover portion 121 covers the image sensor 210 and is provided with a light passing port 1211, and the light passing port 1211 faces the image sensor 210 and the lens 300, so that external light collected by the lens 300 may enter the image sensor 210 through the light passing port 1211, so that the image sensor 210 collects external light for imaging. The raised portion 122 may be disposed around the light passing opening 1211, where the raised portion 122 protrudes from the covering portion 121 and is used for being connected to the second connecting portion 132 of the elastic member 130, and the raised portion 122 is disposed to space the elastic portion 133 from the covering portion 121, so that the elastic portion 133 has a movable space when the second bracket 120 moves up and down relative to the first bracket 110.

In order to make the space for the elastic portion 133 to move larger, the cover portion 112 includes a first portion 1121 connected to the accommodating portion 111 and a second portion 1122 provided around the first portion 1121, the second portion 1122 is connected to the bottom plate 140, the first portion 1121 is provided with a protruding portion 1121a toward the inside of the case 1201, the protruding portion 1121a protrudes in a direction opposite to that of the raised portion 122, and the first connecting portion 131 is connected to the protruding portion 1121 a. Since the first bracket 110 is covered with the second bracket 120 with a certain interval in the lateral direction between the protruding portion 1121a connected to the first connecting portion 131 and the raised portion 122 connected to the second connecting portion 132, the elastic member disposed between the first connecting portion 131 and the second connecting portion 132 is located in the interval, which has a certain space in the longitudinal direction, and the space in the longitudinal direction provides a space in which the elastic portion 133 moves when the second connecting portion 132 moves up and down with the second bracket 120, the protruding dimensions of the raised portion 122 and the protruding portion 1121a can be designed according to the distance that the lens 300 and the image sensor 210 need to move for focusing.

In order to make the elastic portion 133 of the elastic member 130 provide uniform elastic force when the second bracket 120 moves relative to the first bracket 110, the second connection portion 132 is disposed around the light passing opening 1211, that is, the second connection portion 132 is disposed around the light passing opening 1211, the second connection portion 132 is fixedly connected to the raised portion 122 disposed around the light passing opening 1211, the elastic portion 133 connected to the second connection portion 132 is disposed around the second connection portion 132, and the first connection portion 131 is disposed around the elastic portion 133. The second connection portion 132 and the first connection portion 131 may have annular structures, and the elastic portion 133 has an elastic structure disposed between the two annular structures, for example, the elastic portion 133 includes one or more bending structures disposed around the second connection portion. It should be understood that the elastic structure in the illustration is only exemplary, and may be a structure with elasticity, such as an elastic wire or a spring, and in addition, the shape and the movable direction of the elastic structure may be set according to practical requirements, for example, if only the focusing function of the camera module 10 is required to provide elasticity, the shape of the elastic structure only needs to be designed to provide elasticity for the up-and-down movement of the first bracket 110 and the second bracket 120, and if the anti-shake function of the camera module 10 is required to provide elasticity, the shape of the elastic structure also needs to be designed to provide elasticity based on the back-and-forth movement of the first bracket 110 and the second bracket 120, i.e. the compressible and stretching directions of the elastic structure may be designed according to practical requirements.

In the state that the elastic member 130 is not compressed or stretched, the first connection portion 131, the second connection portion 132, and the elastic portion 133 are located on the same plane, so that the overall thickness of the elastic member 130 can be reduced.

The elastic piece provided by the embodiment of the application not only can realize movable connection between the second bracket and the first bracket so that the second bracket is suspended in the camera shooting assembly, but also can restore the second bracket to an initial state after magnetic force between the first magnetic module and the first magnetic module disappears, and ensures the working stability of the camera shooting module.

With continued reference to fig. 2, since the first support 110 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 140, the second support 120 is connected to the first support through the movable elastic member 130, and therefore, the second support 120 can move relative to the first support 110 and the bottom plate 140 under the action of the magnetic force between the first magnetic module 150 and the second magnetic module 160, so that the image sensor 210 disposed on the second support 120 moves relative to the lens 300 disposed on the first support 110, and the focusing or anti-shake function of the camera module 10 can be achieved.

For example, the magnetic force between the first magnetic module 150 and the second magnetic module 160 can drive the second bracket to move up and down along the first direction H1 to drive the image sensor 210 to move up and down along the first direction H1, wherein the first direction H1 is the optical axis direction of the lens 300, and further the image sensor 210 can be close to or far from the lens 300 along the optical axis direction of the lens 300, so as to achieve the focusing function of the lens.

For another example, the magnetic force between the first magnetic module 150 and the second magnetic module 160 may drive the second support to move back and forth and left and right in a plane perpendicular to the first direction H1, or rotate around the first direction H1 as a rotation axis, so that the image sensor 210 compensates the lens 300 according to the shake direction and the displacement thereof of the lens 300, thereby improving or the imaging effect of the camera module 10 caused by shake generated during use of the user, wherein the shake direction and the displacement thereof of the lens can be detected by a sensor such as a gyroscope or an accelerometer disposed in the camera module 10 or in the same electronic device as the camera module 10, for example, shake of the lens 300 can generate a shake signal, and the sensor such as a gyroscope or an accelerometer detects the shake signal and transmits the shake signal to the processing chip of the electronic device and/or the camera module 10, and the processing chip of the electronic device and/or the camera module 10 can calculate the displacement to be compensated for the camera module 100, so that the imaging effect of the camera module 300 caused by shake direction and the displacement thereof of the lens 300 can be compensated for the shake direction of the lens 300, thereby improving or the imaging effect of the camera module 10 caused by shake generated during use of the user.

The first magnetic module 150 may include a magnetic member, for example, a magnetic body having magnetism, the magnetic member is disposed on the inner side of the first support 110 facing the lens, the magnetic member may be disposed around the lens, the magnetic member may be a ring-shaped magnetic body, or a magnetic body disposed around the lens in a segmented manner, the second magnetic module 160 may include an electromagnetic component, and the electromagnetic component may generate an electromagnetic field, for example, an electromagnetic coil, in an energized state, and may generate a magnetic field force after being energized, so as to generate a magnetic field force. Wherein, the electromagnetic assembly can include one or more electromagnetic coils, and a plurality of electromagnetic coils can be two or more electromagnetic coils, and when the electromagnetic assembly includes a plurality of electromagnetic coils, the electromagnetic coils that are located in different positions of the second bracket 120 can be arranged according to the structure of the second bracket 120, so that the driving stability can be improved.

For example, the electromagnetic assembly may include a first electromagnetic coil 161, a second electromagnetic coil 162, and a third electromagnetic coil 163, where the first electromagnetic coil 161 and the third electromagnetic coil 163 are disposed opposite to each other, the second electromagnetic coil 162 is disposed between the first electromagnetic coil 161 and the third electromagnetic coil 163, and a connection line between positions of the first electromagnetic coil 161, the second electromagnetic coil 162, and the third electromagnetic coil 163 may form a triangle structure, and the magnetic element may be disposed above the triangle structure. It will be appreciated that the location and number of electromagnetic coils is merely exemplary and that the location and number of electromagnetic coils may be set according to actual requirements.

According to the image pickup assembly provided by the embodiment of the application, the lens with larger volume and weight is fixed with the first bracket, the lens is fixed relative to the whole image pickup module, the focusing and/or anti-shake functions are realized by driving the movement of the image sensor with smaller weight, so that the driving force can be reduced, the power consumption of the image pickup module is further reduced, and in addition, the reliability is higher compared with the driving of the movement of the lens with larger weight due to the fact that the movement of the image sensor with smaller weight is driven.

In some embodiments, the positions of the magnetic member and the electromagnetic assembly may be switched, for example, a first magnetic module disposed on the first bracket may include the electromagnetic assembly, a second magnetic module disposed on the second bracket may include the magnetic member, and the electromagnetic assembly may generate an electromagnetic field in an energized state, that is, the positions of the magnetic member and the electromagnetic assembly may be set according to the convenience of routing the electromagnetic assembly and the function to be implemented.

It should be noted that, the first magnetic module 150 and the second magnetic module 160 may be designed to implement a focusing function and/or an anti-shake function according to practical requirements. When the first magnetic module 150 and the second magnetic module 160 are only designed to realize the focusing function, the image sensor 210 can be driven by other driving mechanisms to move relative to the lens 300 to realize the anti-shake function, when the first magnetic module 150 and the second magnetic module are only designed to realize the anti-shake function, the focusing function can be driven by other driving mechanisms to move relative to the lens 300 to realize the focusing function, and when the first magnetic module 150 and the second magnetic module 160 are designed to realize the focusing function and the anti-shake function, no other driving mechanism is required to be arranged to realize the focusing and the anti-shake function.

The focusing function and the anti-shake function are implemented by other driving mechanisms of other camera modules, which are designed by the first magnetic module 150 and the second magnetic module 160, and the driving mechanisms are used for driving the image sensor 210 to translate on a plane perpendicular to the optical axis of the lens 300 or rotate by taking the optical axis of the lens 300 as a rotation axis.

For example, referring to fig. 10 and 11 in conjunction with fig. 2, fig. 11 is a schematic diagram of an explosion structure of a second bracket and a driving mechanism provided by the embodiment of the present application, fig. 10 is a schematic diagram of a part of the structure shown in fig. 10, the second bracket 120 includes a housing 1201 and a bearing plate 1202, the housing 1201 houses the bearing plate 1202, the second magnetic module 160 is disposed on the housing 1201, the bearing plate 1202 is used for bearing the image sensor 210, the camera assembly 100 further includes a driving mechanism 170, the driving mechanism 170 is used for driving the image sensor 210 to translate in a plane perpendicular to the optical axis of the lens or rotate about the optical axis of the lens as a rotation axis, so as to implement anti-shake compensation of the camera assembly, the bearing plate 1202 may include a fixed member 1202a and a movable member 1202b disposed at intervals, the fixed member 1202a is connected with the housing 1201, the movable member 1202b is used for bearing the image sensor 210, the driving mechanism 170 includes a moving member 171 and a plurality of deformation members 172, one end of each deformation member 171 is connected with the fixed member 1202a, and the other end of each deformation member 172 is connected with the moving member 171, and the plurality of deformation members 172 can move under the power-on state to move the moving member 1202b and move the movable member 171.

The carrier board 1202 may be used as a circuit board of the image sensor 210 and carry the image sensor 210, i.e. the carrier board 1202 is the image sensor circuit board 220, and the carrier board 1202 may also be used as a carrier of the circuit board of the image sensor 210, i.e. the image sensor circuit board 220 and the image sensor 210 are disposed on the carrier board 1202.

The supporting plate 1202 may include a movable member 1202b and a fixed member 1202a disposed at intervals, the fixed member 1202a of the supporting plate 1202 may be connected to the housing 1201 and fixedly connected to the housing 1201, the movable member 1202b may support the image sensor 210 (or the image sensor assembly 200), and the image sensor 210 may be directly or indirectly connected to the movable member 1202 b. The fixed member 1202a may be sleeved on the outer periphery of the movable member 1202b, and a gap may be formed between the fixed member 1202a and the movable member 1202b so that the movable member 1202b may move relative to the fixed member 1202 a. The image sensor 210 (or image sensor assembly 200) may be directly or indirectly coupled to the moveable member 1202b and move synchronously with the movement of the moveable member 1202 b.

The carrier plate 1202 may be disposed opposite to the driving mechanism 170 in the optical axis direction of the lens 300. The driving mechanism 170 may be disposed at one side of the loading plate 1202. The driving mechanism 170 may be disposed at a side of the loading plate 1202 remote from the bottom plate 140 such that the driving mechanism 170 may drive the loading plate 1202 to move above the loading plate 1202. Of course, the driving mechanism 170 may be disposed on a lower side of the carrier plate 1202, for example, on a lower side of the carrier plate 1202 and the image sensor assembly 200, such that the driving mechanism 170 may drive the carrier plate 1202 to move under the carrier plate 1202 and the image sensor assembly 200. The installation position of the driving mechanism 170 is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present application.

The driving mechanism 170 may include a moving member 171 and a plurality of deforming members 172, and the moving member 171 may be directly or indirectly connected to the moving member 1202b, so that the moving member 171, the moving member 1202b, and the image sensor 210 (or the image sensor assembly 200) disposed on the moving member 1202b may be integrally formed.

The direction around the optical axis of the lens 300 may be any direction in a plane perpendicular to the optical axis of the lens 300, for example, any direction in an XOY plane in the coordinate axes.

It will be appreciated that the material of the plurality of deformable members 172 is formed of a shape memory alloy (shape memory alloys, SMA) that, when energized, causes the shape memory alloy to be heated and deformed, which in turn causes the length of the plurality of deformable members 172 to change. When the deformation members 172 are energized or different amounts of current are transmitted to the deformation members 172, the length of the deformation members 172 may be changed, and since one end of each deformation member 172 is fixed with the fixed member 1202a of the carrier 1202 and the other end moves with the moving member 171, the deformation members 172 with changed length may drive the moving member 171 to move, and the moving member 171 may also drive the moving member 1202b and the image sensor 210 connected directly or indirectly thereto to move.

In the image capturing assembly 100 according to the embodiment of the present application, the driving mechanism 170 includes a moving member 171 and a plurality of deformation members 172, the moving member 171 is connected to the moving member 1202b of the carrier 1202, one end of each deformation member 172 is connected to the moving member 171, and the other end is connected to the fixed member 1202a of the carrier 1202, so that the moving member 171 can be driven to move when the plurality of deformation members 172 deform, the moving member 171 can drive the moving member 1202b and the image sensor 210 disposed on the moving member 1202b to move, and thus the image capturing assembly 100 can implement the anti-shake function of the image sensor 210. Meanwhile, two ends of the deformation member 172 are respectively connected with the fixed member 1202a and the movable member 171, the deformation member 172 does not occupy the space of the movable member 1202b, the deformation member 172 does not influence the distribution of the circuits on the movable member 1202b, and the influence of the deformation member 172 on the circuits on the movable member 1202b can be reduced. In addition, the moving member 171 and the bearing plate 1202 are independent from each other, and in the manufacturing and assembling process, the moving member 171 and the bearing plate 1202 can be produced in a modularized manner respectively, so as to improve the adaptability of the moving member 171 and the bearing plate 1202. It should be noted that the moving member 171 and the carrier plate 1202 may be manufactured together by the same manufacturing process. The embodiment of the present application is not limited to the specific manufacturing process of the moving member 171 and the carrying plate 1202.

The drive mechanism 170 may also include a plurality of movable ends 173 and a plurality of fixed ends 174. The plurality of movable ends 173 may be provided to the moving member 171, and the plurality of fixed ends 174 may be provided to the fixed member 1202a. One end of a deformable member 172 may be directly or indirectly connected to a movable end 173 and the other end may be directly or indirectly connected to a fixed end 174. When the length of the deformable member 172 is changed in the energized state, the movable end 173 connected to the deformable member 172 is movable with the movable member 171 according to the change in the length of the deformable member 172, and the fixed end 174 connected to the deformable member 172 is fixed with the fixed member 1202a without movement.

It is understood that one or more movable ends 173 may be disposed at intervals and coupled to the moving member 171, and two or more of the plurality of movable ends 173 may be disposed adjacent (or coupled to) each other without being disposed at intervals. Similarly, one or more of the fixed ends 174 may be disposed at intervals and connected to the fixing member 1202a (e.g., disposed at intervals on the front surface of the fixing member 1202 a), and two or more of the fixed ends 174 may be disposed adjacent (or connected to) each other without being disposed at intervals. The embodiments of the present application do not specifically set the arrangement of the plurality of movable ends 173 and the plurality of fixed ends 174.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 11, the drive mechanism 170 may include two movable ends 173 disposed at intervals and two fixed ends 174 disposed at intervals. For example, the two movable ends 173 and the two fixed ends 174 may form a quadrangular structure, the two movable ends 173 may be located on one diagonal of the quadrangular structure, the two fixed ends 174 may be located on the other diagonal of the quadrangular structure, and the two movable ends 173 and the two fixed ends 174 may form four vertices of the quadrangular structure. At this time, the camera assembly 100 may further be provided with four deformation members 172, and the four deformation members 172 may be provided corresponding to four sides of the quadrangular structure. Based on the easy deformation characteristic of the quadrilateral structure, when the deformation member 172 deforms, the deformation member 172 is more easily affected by the movable end 173 and the fixed end 174 at the vertex, so that the quadrilateral structure is changed, and the movable member 1202b and the image sensor 210 disposed on the movable member 1202b are more easily driven to move.

It is understood that the one or more movable ends 173 may be integrally formed with the moving member 171, and the one or more fixed ends 174 may be integrally formed with the fixed member 1202 a. When the deformation member 172 is connected to the movable end 173 or the fixed end 174 by winding, clamping, welding, or the like, compared with the case where the deformation member 172 is directly connected to the fixed end 1202a, the deformation member 172 of the embodiment of the application is not easy to damage the fixed end 1202a and damage the circuit trace on the fixed end 1202a in the process of connecting the deformation member 172 to the movable end 173 and the fixed end 174.

It is understood that the number of the movable ends 173 and the fixed ends 174 may be equal to half of the number of the deformable members 172, so that one movable end 173 may connect the ends of two deformable members 172, and one fixed end 174 may also connect the ends of two deformable members 172, so that the driving mechanism 170 of the embodiment of the present application may provide fewer movable ends 173 and fixed ends 174.

It is understood that the camera assembly 100, the camera module 10 or the electronic device may further include a driving control chip, which may be disposed on the fixing member 1202a of the carrier plate 1202 and form a driving circuit for deforming the deforming member 172. Or the fixing member 1202a may be separately provided with a driving circuit, and the driving control chip may be electrically connected to the driving circuit on the fixing member 1202a through the driving adapter board 700. At least one of the plurality of movable terminals 173 and the plurality of fixed terminals 174 may be a conductive device, so that the driving circuit may be electrically connected to the deformation member 172 through the plurality of movable terminals 173, or through the plurality of fixed terminals 174, or through both the plurality of movable terminals 173 and the plurality of fixed terminals 174, so that the driving control chip may provide driving current to the deformation member 172.

It is understood that the movable end 173 and the fixed end 174 may have a certain height, such that the movable end 173 and the fixed end 174 isolate the carrier plate 1202 from the moving member 171 and the deforming member 172. Therefore, the deformation members 172 are not easy to contact with the bearing plate 1202 when deformed, so that deformation interference of the bearing plate 1202 to the deformation members 172 can be avoided; at the same time, the electrical circuit on the carrier plate 1202 is prevented from shorting out by contact with the deformable member 172.

The driving mechanism 170 may be provided with a plurality of movable ends 173 and fixed ends 174, and the deformation member 172 is connected with the fixed member 1202a of the bearing plate 1202 and the moving member 171 of the driving mechanism 170 through the movable ends 173 and the fixed ends 174, so that the connection process of the deformation member 172 is simpler and the circuit routing on the fixed member 1202a is not affected; meanwhile, the movable end 173 and the fixed end 174 can be used as conductive devices to realize power supply of the deformation member 172, so that the power supply circuit arrangement of the deformation member 172 can be simplified, and the miniaturized design of the camera assembly 100 can be realized.

Wherein a plurality of deforming members 172 may be disposed around the moving member 171 such that the deforming members 172 may better control the movement of the moving member 171. With continued reference to fig. 12, fig. 12 is a schematic structural view of the moving member shown in fig. 10. The moving member 171 may include a middle portion 1711, a first extension portion 1712, and a second extension portion 1713, and the middle portion 1711 may be a rectangular frame structure. The first and second extension 1712 and 1713 are disposed at opposite corners of the middle portion 1711. The middle portion 1711 is located above the movable member 1202b, the first extension portion 1712 extends from one corner of the middle portion 1711 to above the fixed member 1202a, the second extension portion 1713 extends from the other corner of the middle portion 1711 to above the fixed member 1202a, the first extension portion 1712 and the second extension portion 1713 may extend in directions away from each other, and one movable end 173 is provided on each of the first extension portion 1712 and the second extension portion 1713.

The fixing member 1202a may have a rectangular frame structure, and the movable member 1202b may be disposed in a hollow region of the fixing member 1202 a. When the driving mechanism 170 includes two movable ends 173 and two fixed ends 174, the two movable ends 173 may be disposed at the first extension 1712 and the second extension 1713 of the moving member 171, the two fixed ends 174 may be disposed at opposite ends of the fixing member 1202a, each movable end 173 is disposed between the two fixed ends 174, and each fixed end 174 is disposed between the two movable ends 173. Thus, the two movable ends 173 may be located on the diagonal of the moving member 171, and the two fixed ends 174 may be located on the diagonal of the moving member 171.

The driving mechanism 170 includes four deformation members 172, where the four deformation members 172 are located on four sides of the fixing member 1202a, specifically, each deformation member 172 is disposed opposite to one side of the fixing member 1202a, and one end of each deformation member 172 is connected to a movable end 173, and the other end is connected to the fixed end 174. It will be appreciated that the four deformable members 172 cooperate to move the movable member 171, for example, to move the movable member 171 in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis of the lens 300 or to rotate about the optical axis of the lens 300.

To facilitate understanding of the movement of the image sensor 210 controlled by the deformable member 172 in this embodiment, the following is an example. With continued reference to fig. 10 and 11, the four deforming members 172 may include a first deforming member 1721, a second deforming member 1722, a third deforming member 1723, and a fourth deforming member 1724.

When the first deforming member 1721 is energized to shorten and contract, and/or the third deforming member 1723 is energized to lengthen and relax, the first deforming member 1721 and the third deforming member 1723 can drive the moving member 171, the movable member 1202b and the image sensor 210 to translate rightward along the X-axis direction. If the first deforming member 1721 is energized to lengthen and relax, and/or the third deforming member 1723 is energized to shorten and contract, the first deforming member 1721 and the third deforming member 1723 can drive the moving member 171, the movable member 1202b and the image sensor 210 to translate leftwards along the X-axis direction.

When the second deforming member 1722 is energized to shorten and contract, and/or the fourth deforming member 1724 is energized to lengthen and relax, the second deforming member 1722 and the fourth deforming member 1724 can drive the moving member 171, the movable member 1202b and the image sensor 210 to translate along the negative Y-axis direction. If the second deforming member 1722 is energized to lengthen and relax, and/or the fourth deforming member 1724 is energized to shorten and contract, the second deforming member 1722 and the fourth deforming member 1724 can drive the moving member 171, the movable member 1202b and the image sensor 210 to translate along the positive Y-axis direction.

If the first deforming member 1721 and the third deforming member 1723 are simultaneously energized to shorten, the first deforming member 1721 and the third deforming member 1723 can drive the moving member 171, the movable member 1202b and the image sensor 210 to rotate clockwise in the XOY plane along the diagonal line of the moving member 171. If the first deforming member 1721 and the third deforming member 1723 are energized at the same time to lengthen, the first deforming member 1721 can drive the moving member 171, the movable member 1202b and the image sensor 210 to rotate counterclockwise in the XOY plane along the diagonal line of the moving member 171.

If the second deforming member 1722 and the fourth deforming member 1724 are simultaneously energized to shorten, the second deforming member 1722 and the fourth deforming member 1724 can drive the moving member 171, the movable member 1202b and the image sensor 210 to rotate counterclockwise in the XOY plane along the diagonal line of the moving member 171. If the second deforming member 1722 and the fourth deforming member 1724 are energized at the same time to lengthen, the second deforming member 1722 and the fourth deforming member 1724 can drive the moving member 171, the movable member 1202b and the image sensor 210 to rotate clockwise in the XOY plane along the diagonal line of the moving member 171.

In the camera module 100 of the embodiment of the present application, the first deforming member 1721, the second deforming member 1722, the third deforming member 1723 and the fourth deforming member 1724 are disposed around the moving member 171, and the plurality of deforming members 172 can symmetrically and uniformly control the movement of the moving member 171, so that the movement distance and the movement direction of the moving member 171 are more controllable, and the camera module 100 is more convenient to calculate the anti-shake parameters of the image sensor 210. Meanwhile, the deformation pieces 172 can drive the moving piece 171 and the image sensor 210 to realize translation anti-shake of the X axis and the Y axis, rotation anti-shake in the XOY plane can be realized, anti-shake compensation under various shaking scenes can be realized by the adaptation of the camera shooting assembly 100, anti-shake compensation under various shaking scenes can be realized by the camera shooting module 10, and the adaptability of the camera shooting module 10 is better.

It should be noted that, the specific manner in which the plurality of deformable members 172 drive the moving member 171, the movable member 1202b and the image sensor 210 to move is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

It is understood that the frame of the moving member 171 may be configured to be compatible with the size of the movable member 1202b of the carrying plate 1202, such that the moving member 171 can carry the movable member 1202b. The projections of the first extension portion 1712 and the second extension portion 1713 of the moving member 171 on the carrying plate 1202 may be located on the fixed member 1202a of the carrying plate 1202, so that the quadrilateral structure formed by the two movable ends 173 and the two fixed ends 174 enclosed together may be adapted to the size of the fixed member 1202a, so that the lengths of the deformation members 172 may be longer, and the movement stroke of the deformation members 172 driving the moving member 171, the movable member 1202b and the image sensor 210 is larger.

The moving member 171 of the embodiment of the present application is provided with a first extension 1712 and a second extension 1713, and on one hand, the first extension 1712 and the second extension 1713 may carry two movable ends 173; on the other hand, the first extending portion 1712 and the second extending portion 1713 make the length of the deformation member 172 larger, the movement stroke of the deformation member 172 driving the moving member 171, the moving member 1202b and the image sensor 210 is larger, and the anti-shake compensation of the image capturing assembly 100 on the image sensor 210 can be larger.

It can be appreciated that, when the magnetic force between the first magnetic module 150 and the second magnetic module 160 is used to implement the focusing function, the structure of the elastic portion 133 of the elastic member 130 may be designed, the elastic force provided by the elastic portion 133 may enable the housing 1201 to move up and down only along the optical axis direction of the lens 300, so as to limit the translation or rotation of the housing 1201 in the plane perpendicular to the optical axis direction of the lens 300, and avoid the influence of the movement of the housing 1201 on the anti-shake function when the driving mechanism 170 drives the image sensor to implement the anti-shake function in the plane perpendicular to the optical axis direction of the lens 300.

In some embodiments, the driving mechanism 170 may be only used to drive the image sensor 210 to rotate with the optical axis of the lens 300 as a rotation axis, so as to implement anti-shake compensation in the rotation direction of the image capturing module, and the magnetic force generated by the first magnetic module 150 and the second magnetic module 160 is used to drive the image sensor 210 to move along the optical axis direction of the lens, so as to implement focusing of the image capturing module, or is used to drive the image sensor 210 to translate along a plane perpendicular to the optical axis of the lens 300, so as to implement anti-shake compensation in the translation direction of the image capturing module. At this time, the elastic force provided by the elastic portion 133 of the elastic member 130 may enable the housing 1201 to move up and down along the optical axis direction of the lens or translate in a plane perpendicular to the optical axis direction of the lens 300.

It should be noted that the structure of the driving mechanism 170 provided in the embodiment of the application is merely exemplary, and the image sensor 210 may be driven to move by other driving mechanisms to implement the optical anti-shake function.

With continued reference to fig. 13 and 14, fig. 13 is a schematic structural view of the carrier plate and the elastic connection member shown in fig. 10. Fig. 14 is an enlarged schematic view of a portion C of the structure shown in fig. 13. The second bracket 120 may further include one or more elastic connection members 123, and the one or more elastic connection members 123 may be disposed between the movable member 1202b and the fixed member 1202a, for example, between an outer periphery of the movable member 1202b and an inner periphery of the fixed member 1202 a. The first end a1 of each elastic connection member 123 may be connected to the fixed member 1202a and fixed, and the second end a2 may be connected to the movable member 1202b and move with the movable member 1202 b. The one or more elastic connection members 123 may provide an elastic force to the movable member 1202b opposite to the movement direction thereof to involve the movement of the movable member 1202b, and the elastic force provided by the elastic connection member 123 and the driving force provided by the driving mechanism 170 may act on the movable member 1202b together, so that the movable member 1202b may stay at a certain position stably, so that the anti-shake control of the movable member 1202b and the image sensor 210 is more accurate.

It is understood that the elastic connection member 123 may be made of a material having an elastic restoring force.

Illustratively, the second bracket 120 may include four resilient connectors 123, each resilient connector 123 may be a set of suspension wires (Trace suspention assembly, TSA) disposed about the mover 171. The fixed member 1202a and the movable member 1202b are connected by a plurality of groups of suspension wires, and the suspension wires of the elastic connecting member 123 adopt an exposure etching process, so that the consistency of the elastic coefficients of the suspension wires is ensured. Thus, the consistency of the elastic connection member 123 is good, and the yield of the camera module 100 can be improved.

In order to simplify the circuit arrangement of the camera module 100, the camera module 10 or the electronic device, the one or more elastic connectors 123 may be conductive electrical connectors made of conductive materials. Namely, the elastic connection member 123 has one end for electrical connection with the image sensor 210 and the other end for electrical connection with an external circuit to electrically connect the image sensor 210 and the external circuit. For example, the elastic connection member 123 may be electrically connected to a PAD (PAD) of the image sensor circuit board 220 by thermocompression bonding or the like.

Illustratively, the movable member 1202b may be provided with a first electrical connection terminal directly or indirectly electrically connected to the image sensor 210, the fixed member 1202a may be provided with a second electrical connection terminal directly or indirectly electrically connected to an external circuit, and the elastic connection member 123 may be directly or indirectly electrically connected to the second electrical connection terminal and the first electrical connection terminal, respectively, such that the external circuit may be directly or indirectly electrically connected to the image sensor 210 through the second electrical connection terminal, the elastic connection member 123, and the first electrical connection terminal. Wherein the external circuit may be electrically connected to the second electrical connection terminal through the flexible circuit board 1203. As shown in fig. 4, the flexible circuit board 1203 may be provided with a bending structure 1203a at the connection with the second electrical connection terminal, and the bending structure 1203a may be designed to reduce the pulling force on the flexible circuit board 1203 when the second bracket 120 moves. The stability of the movement of the second bracket 120 is improved.

It is understood that the first electrical connection may be, but is not limited to, a land feature on the moveable member 1202b and the second electrical connection may be, but is not limited to, a land feature on the stationary member 1202 a. The external circuit may be, but is not limited to being, electrically connected to the second electrical connection terminal through the flexible circuit board 1203.

It can be understood that the external circuit can provide power for the image sensor 210, and the external circuit can also transmit a control signal to the image sensor 210, so that the control chip of the camera module 10 and the control chip of the electronic device 1 can control the image sensor 210.

In the image pickup assembly 100 of the embodiment of the present application, the external circuit may be electrically connected to the image sensor 210 through the elastic connection member 123, where the elastic connection member 123 may be used as an elastic damping member or an electrical connection member, and the elastic connection member 123 may be reused, so as to implement a miniaturized design of the image pickup assembly 100.

As shown in fig. 14, each set of suspension wires may include a plurality of suspension wires 1231, the plurality of suspension wires 1231 being disposed side by side. The plurality of suspension wires 1231 can not only physically connect the fixed member 1202a and the movable member 1202b, but also electrically connect the circuits on the fixed member 1202a and the movable member 1202 b. The plurality of suspension wires 1231 in each group of suspension wires can be arranged at intervals, namely, circuit isolation is realized between two adjacent suspension wires 1231 at intervals, and the transmission of power or signals by the plurality of suspension wires 1231 is not influenced.

Alternatively, the elastic connection 123 may also include, but is not limited to, various springs. Each elastic connection member 123 may include one or more bullet-shaped connection members, and each elastic connection member 123 may be formed of a plurality of elastic threads in a spiral shape, and in this case, the first end a1 of the elastic connection member 123 may be an end portion formed by a plurality of elastic threads together, and the second end a2 may be another end portion formed by a plurality of elastic threads together. Of course, in actual production, each elastic connection 123 may be formed by only one spring. The specific structure of the elastic connecting piece 123 is not limited in the embodiment of the present application, and any structure of the elastic connecting piece 123 that can bear the acting force generated by the movement of the movable piece 1202b driven by the driving mechanism 170 and can have elastic restoring force is within the scope of the embodiment of the present application.

It is understood that the projection of the first end a1 of each elastic connection 123 on the movable member 1202b may be offset from the second end a2 thereof, for example, both may be disposed on different sides of the movable member 1202 b. Each elastic connecting piece 123 is respectively connected with one side edge of the fixed piece 1202a and the other side edge of the movable piece 1202b corresponding to the side edge. Each elastic connecting member 123 may form a torsion spring structure, and the plurality of elastic connecting members 123 may have a larger pulling force on the movable member 1202b, so as to improve the stability of the movable member 1202 b.

It is understood that, as shown in fig. 12, each elastic connection member 123 may include a first elastic portion b1, a first corner portion b2 and a second elastic portion b3 connected in sequence, the first elastic portion b1 may be connected to the fixing member 1202a, the second elastic portion b3 may be connected to the movable member 1202b, and a first connection line of the first elastic portion b1 and the first corner portion b2 and a second connection line of the first corner portion b2 and the second elastic portion b3 may form a preset included angle, which may be, but not limited to, ninety degrees.

To further enhance the stability of the moveable member 1202b, a plurality of resilient connecting members 123 on the carrier plate 1202 may be disposed sequentially around the outer periphery of the moveable member 1202 b. For example, as shown in fig. 12. The plurality of elastic connection members 123 may be disposed around the outer circumference of the movable member 1202b clockwise, and the plurality of elastic connection members 123 may be sequentially arranged clockwise in the order of the first end, the second end, the first end, and the second end … …. Of course, the plurality of elastic connection members may be disposed around the outer periphery of the movable member 1202b in a counterclockwise manner, and the plurality of elastic connection members 123 may be sequentially disposed in the order of the first end, the second end, the first end, and the second end … … in a counterclockwise manner.

In two adjacent elastic connection members 123, the second end a2 of one elastic connection member 123 (e.g., the front elastic connection member 123) may be adjacent to and may be located on the same side of the movable member 1202b as the projection of the first end a1 of the other elastic connection member 123 (e.g., the rear elastic connection member 123) on the movable member 1202 b. It is understood that adjacent herein may mean that the distance between the first end a1 of the previous elastic connecting member 123 and the second end a2 of the next elastic connecting member 123 may be within a smaller predetermined range, so that the elastic torsion of the two adjacent elastic connecting members 123 may cover the entire side of the movable member 1202b, and the stability of the movable member 1202b is better.

When the fixing member 1202a is in a rectangular frame structure and the movable member 1202b is in a rectangular plate structure, the corresponding carrying plate 1202 may include four elastic connection members 123, so that each elastic connection member 123 is respectively connected to one side of the fixing member 1202a and an adjacent side of the movable member 1202b corresponding to the side, each elastic connection member 123 may include a set of suspension wires, and on one hand, a set of suspension wires may provide traction for movement of the movable member 1202b to improve stability of the movable member 1202 b; on the other hand, a set of suspension wires can also avoid the elastic connection member 123 from being separated from the movable member 1202b due to the excessive movement amplitude of the movable member 1202 b.

It should be noted that the above is only one exemplary connection manner of the elastic connection member 123, the movable member 1202b, and the fixed member 1202a according to the embodiments of the present application. The specific connection manner of the elastic connection member 123 is not limited to the above description, for example, the elastic connection member 123 may be directly connected to a side frame of the fixing member 1202a and a side of the corresponding movable member 1202 b.
