Referring to fig. 1 and 2, the camera module of the present embodiment includes a camera assembly 1, a light source assembly 2, and a transparent cover plate 3 covering the camera assembly 1. The light source assembly 2 is used for supplementing light to the camera assembly 1 and increasing the light quantity of reflected light entering the camera assembly so as to improve the imaging quality of the camera assembly 1; the transparent cover plate 3 is used for protecting the camera assembly 1 and preventing dust or foreign matters from entering the camera assembly 1.

The number of the optical lenses 11 may be one or more, and the light sensing element 12 is a CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) element or a CCD (charge coupled device) element. In this embodiment, the optical lens 11 is a micro lens, and the number of the optical lenses is one, and the light sensing element 12 is a CMOS element. The reflected light of the object 200 enters the light-sensing surface of the light-sensing element 12 from the optical lens 11 (the surface of the light-sensing element 12 facing the optical lens 11), and the light-sensing element 12 performs imaging according to the received object reflected light.
The light source assembly 2 is disposed on one side of the camera assembly 1 in a transverse direction X, the transverse direction X is perpendicular to an optical axis L of the optical lens 11, and the longitudinal direction Y is parallel to or coincident with the optical axis L.

The light guide element 22 includes a light emitting surface 220, a first reflecting surface 221 and a second reflecting surface 222, wherein the light emitting surface 220 is located between the first reflecting surface 221 and the second reflecting surface 222. The first reflecting surface 221 and the second reflecting surface 222 are parallel and opposite to each other, which is beneficial to shortening the light path and reducing the light loss. The light emitting direction of the light emitting element 21 points to the first reflecting surface 221, and light generated by the light emitting element 21 is reflected by the first reflecting surface 221 and the second reflecting surface 222 and is guided out from the light emitting surface 220 to irradiate a shot object, so that light supplement for the camera assembly is realized. It should be noted that the light finally guided out from the light exit surface 220 may be reflected by the first reflection surface 221 and the second reflection surface 222 multiple times, or may be reflected by the first reflection surface 221 only a single time.

The third reflecting surface 223 can reflect the light rays irradiated thereon, so that the light rays are reflected to the first reflecting surface 221 and the second reflecting surface 222, and then can be guided out from the light emitting surface 220, so that the light loss is reduced, the light supplement brightness is increased, and the imaging quality is improved; on the other hand, if the third reflecting surface 223 is not provided, the light generated by the light emitting element 21 can be emitted from the side where the third reflecting surface 223 is located, and part of the emitted light can enter the camera assembly 1, so that the third reflecting surface 223 can also prevent the light generated by the light source assembly 2 from entering the camera assembly 1 and affecting the imaging quality. Optionally, except for the light emitting surface 220, other side surfaces of the light guiding element 22 may be set as reflective surfaces, so as to minimize light loss.
In this embodiment, the light emitting element 21 is disposed in the light guide element 22, so that light generated by the light emitting element 21 can completely enter the light guide element 22, light loss is further reduced, fill-in luminance is increased, and imaging quality is improved. In this embodiment, the light emitting direction of the light emitting element 21 is directed to the first reflecting surface 221; in other embodiments, the light emitting direction of the light emitting element 21 may be directed to other reflective surfaces, such as the second reflective surface 222 or the third reflective surface 223.

In this embodiment, one end of the light guide element 22 (or the light emitting surface 220) far away from the camera assembly 1 is flush with the outer surface 30 (the surface facing away from the camera assembly) of the transparent cover plate 3, so that the outer surface 30 of the transparent cover plate 3 can be directly abutted to the surface of the object 200, the distance between the camera assembly 1 and the object 200 can be as short as several millimeters, microscopic shooting is realized, and the light emitting surface 220 of the light source assembly 2 faces the object 200, so that front light supplement is realized.
The camera module further comprises a shading element 4 arranged between the transparent cover plate 3 and the camera assembly 1, the shading element 4 comprises a first opening 41 and a second opening 42, and the camera assembly 1 receives reflected light of the object 200 through the first opening 41 and forms images according to the reflected light. The light source assembly 2 is at least partially located in the second opening 42 and partially protrudes into the transparent cover plate 3, and correspondingly, the transparent cover plate 3 is provided with a corresponding opening (not shown).
In the present embodiment, the distance between the first opening 41 and the second opening 42 (which may also be regarded as the lateral distance between the camera head assembly and the light source assembly) is 1-5 cm, and the "distance" herein may be understood as the distance between the geometric centers of the first opening 41 and the second opening 42; an angle β formed by a plane of the light emitting surface 220 and the optical axis L of the optical lens 11 is 50 to 85 °. At this angle and distance, it is ensured that the area (which can be understood as the illumination area of the light source assembly) that can be illuminated by the light generated by the light source assembly 2 is substantially coincident with the area (which can be understood as the shooting area of the camera assembly) within the field angle α of the camera assembly 1 (if the illumination area is too large, the light is scattered, which may cause the brightness value of the shooting area to be too low, thereby affecting the imaging quality), and that the area can be illuminated while having a certain brightness value, thereby improving the imaging quality. In other embodiments, the angle formed by the plane where the light-emitting surface 220 is located and the optical axis L of the optical lens 11 may be other angles, and correspondingly, the distance between the first opening 41 and the second opening 42 should be adaptively adjusted to ensure the light compensation effect. Generally, the smaller the distance between the first opening 41 and the second opening 42, the smaller the angle value of the angle β formed between the plane where the light-emitting surface 220 is located and the optical axis L of the optical lens 11. In some embodiments, the plane of the light exit surface 220 may also perpendicularly intersect with the optical axis L of the optical lens 11.
