the mobile phone is characterized by further comprising an electric mechanism, wherein the electric mechanism is arranged between the mobile phone main body and the camera module and used for driving the camera module to rotate according to input electric power.
In this specification, the mobile phone is generally a mobile phone having a plate shape, and the "vertical rotation axis" is a rotation axis that is axially perpendicular to a plate surface of the mobile phone, and the "horizontal rotation" is a rotation that keeps the camera module and the plate surface of the mobile phone horizontal (the camera module also generally has a flat shape).
The mobile phone main body generally includes a casing, a supporting frame, a touch screen, a mobile phone motherboard, a battery, and other components of the mobile phone. The concave position can be formed by a mobile phone shell or a supporting frame body which is concave in one side of the mobile phone, preferably, the shape of the concave position corresponds to that of the camera module, and a space for allowing the camera to rotate between a first angle and a second angle is reserved, so that the camera module can rotate between the first angle and the second angle and is just accommodated into the concave position when the camera module rotates at the first angle; the recessed position also generally provides a limit to the rotation of the camera module, such as limiting the rotation of the camera module to only a first angle and a second angle (typically, the first and second angles are limit angles, and include 80-180, preferably 90). The camera module is generally connected to a housing or a support frame of the mobile phone through a vertical rotating shaft.

Specifically, the rotating shaft portion is a rotor including a permanent magnet (such as a neodymium magnet or other hard magnets), a corresponding stator winding is arranged on the mobile phone body, and the rotating shaft portion is driven to rotate by a magnetic field generated by electrifying the stator winding. The electric mechanism adopting the permanent magnet motor structure can more directly drive the camera module to rotate between a first angle and a second angle, a contact part for transmission is not arranged between the camera module and the mobile phone main body, the electric mechanism is simple in structure, when the camera module protrudes out of the side edge of the mobile phone, the camera can be pulled off by external force at most only by overcoming the magnetic force between the stator and the rotor, and the camera module cannot be damaged due to the fact that the camera module is in a dead state. Further preferably, the camera module further comprises a positioning mechanism for positioning the camera module at the first angle or the second angle, so that when the camera module rotates to the first angle or the second angle, the positioning mechanism can replace the electric mechanism to position the camera module at the first angle or the second angle, thereby reducing the power consumption of the electric mechanism. Preferably, the positioning mechanism is a positioning magnet, for example, a first magnet may be provided on the camera module, a second magnet may be provided on an inner wall of the recessed portion, and the first and second magnets may be positioned and magnetized so as to be close to each other and generate a magnetic attraction force when the camera module is rotated to the first angle and the second angle, thereby allowing the camera module to be positioned at the first angle and the second angle.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the mobile phone further includes an angle sensor, the angle sensor is used for sensing the angle of the camera module and feeding back the angle to the circuit or software system of the mobile phone. The angle sensor can be a magnetic sensor, a light sensor or a mechanical switch arranged on the inner wall of the concave position. When the angle sensor is a magnetic sensor, a magnet can be arranged on the camera module, a corresponding Hall element is arranged on the inner wall of the concave position, the position of the magnet and the position of the Hall element are set to be close to the Hall element when the camera module rotates to a first angle and/or a second angle, and therefore the Hall element can sense whether the camera module is located at the first angle or the second angle.
