The following describes an image pickup module and an electronic apparatus according to an embodiment of the present application with reference to fig. 1 to 7.

As shown in fig. 1, a camera module 10 is provided according to a first embodiment of the present application. The camera module 10 includes a module frame 172, a lens 100, a first photo-sensing chip 104, a second photo-sensing chip 106, a third photo-sensing chip 132, a first diameter changing member 108, and a second diameter changing member 128.

The lens 100 is disposed in the module frame 172, and the lens 100 is used for transmitting light. The first photo sensor chip 104, the second photo sensor chip 106, and the third photo sensor chip 132 are disposed in the module frame 172. The first photosensitive chip 104 is opposite to the lens 100. The first diameter changing element 108 is rotatably disposed in the module frame 172 and has a first position and a second position. The first diameter changing element 108 has a reflective surface. The first diameter-varying element 108 changes the propagation path of the light by reflecting the light with a reflecting surface.

In the embodiment of the application, through setting up rotatable first reducing member 108, then first reducing member 108 is through rotating, can be when changing light propagation path to throw light to different positions, make the light that camera lens 100 sees through, can shoot the sensitization chip of different positions, perhaps first reducing member 108 directly avoids light, makes the light shoot directly with the sensitization chip that camera lens 100 is relative. Thus, by arranging one lens 100, a plurality of sensing chips can be corresponded, thereby being beneficial to reducing the number of accessories, correspondingly reducing the material consumption, saving the space occupied by the accessories and reducing the process time consumed by the production of products.

Specifically, the first diameter changing piece 108 may be rotated so as to be able to have a first position and a second position. The first variable diameter member 108 rotates to a first position to avoid the light transmitted by the lens 100, so that the light is directly emitted to the first photosensitive chip 104 opposite to the lens 100. It can be understood that the first photo-sensing chip 104 is opposite to the lens 100, that is, the first photo-sensing chip 104 is disposed on the optical axis of the lens 100, so that when the first variable diameter member 108 rotates to a position where it can avoid light, that is, when there is no obstacle between the lens 100 and the first photo-sensing chip 104, the light transmitted by the lens 100 can directly project to the first photo-sensing chip 104.

Further, the second diameter changing element 128 is also disposed within the module frame 172. The second diameter changing part 128 is used for reflecting or refracting the light reflected by the first diameter changing part 108 again so as to enable the light to be projected to the second photosensitive chip 106 or the third photosensitive chip 132.

When it is desired to use the second photosensitive chip 106, the first diameter changing member 108 is rotated to a second position, which reflects light toward the second diameter changing member 128. For example, the first diameter-changing element 108 is a reflective element, and the reflective surface thereof faces the lens 100, thereby reflecting light while blocking light from being emitted to the first photo-sensing chip 104. Therefore, as long as the first variable diameter part 108 rotates to the second position, the light transmitted by the lens 100 can be reflected to the second variable diameter part 128, and then the light is reflected to the second photosensitive chip 106 or the third photosensitive chip 132 by the rotation of the second variable diameter part 128, so that the purpose that one lens 100 corresponds to a plurality of photosensitive chips is achieved, the number of the lens 100 can be reduced, the number of accessories is correspondingly reduced, and the space and the process time are saved.

It should be noted that, often, one lens 100 further includes a plurality of lenses 102, and other components for mounting and fixing the lenses 102, and if the lens 100 is a zoom lens, further includes a driving device for driving the lens 100, and so on. Therefore, although the camera module 10 according to the embodiment of the present invention adds the first diameter changing part 108 and the second diameter changing part 128, the number of the overall parts is greatly reduced, and the amount of materials used is correspondingly greatly reduced, compared to one lens 100. In addition, also there is the interval itself between camera lens 100 and the sensitization chip, first reducing 108 and second reducing 128 as long as in this interval can, do not need extra space, consequently, for the technical scheme that a sensitization chip corresponds a camera lens, the module 10 of making a video recording of this application embodiment has reduced the occupation to the space by a wide margin, is favorable to providing sufficient space of placing for the battery, has avoided the volume of compression battery to be favorable to guaranteeing electronic equipment's continuation of the journey time.

In some embodiments, the first diameter change element 108 has a hinged end and a free end. The hinge end is located between the lens 100 and the first photosensitive chip 104, is disposed near one end of the first photosensitive chip 104, and is located on one side of the lens 100 along the radial direction of the lens 100.

The first diameter changing element 108 has a hinged end about which the free end can rotate, i.e. the first diameter changing element 108 can rotate. The hinged end is located between the lens 100 and the first optical sensor 104 and near one end of the first optical sensor 104, and at the same time, the hinged end is located at one radial side of the lens 100, so that the first variable diameter part 108 can reach a position parallel to the optical axis of the lens 100 by rotating, thereby ensuring to avoid the light transmitted by the lens 100, and can be blocked between the lens 100 and the first optical sensor 104 by rotating, thereby blocking the light from being emitted to the first optical sensor 104 and reflecting the light to the second variable diameter part 128.

It is understood that the camera module 10 further includes a first driving device to drive the first variable diameter element 108 to rotate. Specifically, at the hinged end position within the module frame 172, the first rotating bracket 110 is provided. The first rotatable mount 110 is connected to a first driving means, and the first rotatable mount 110 is further connected to the hinged end of the first diameter changing element 108. The first driving device drives the first rotating bracket 110 to rotate, and the first rotating bracket 110 drives the first diameter changing piece 108 to rotate.

In the above embodiment, the camera module 10 further includes the first signal generator 112 and the first sensor 114. The first signal generator 112 is used for providing a first signal, and the first sensor 114 is used for sensing the first signal. The position of the first diameter changing element 108 is determined by the signal sensed by the first sensor 114.

Specifically, the first signal generator 112 is disposed at a free end of the first variable diameter member 108 and rotates with the rotation of the first variable diameter member 108. The first sensor 114 is disposed on the module frame 172. The first sensor 114 is located on the same radial side of the lens 100 as the hinged end. When the free end of the first variable diameter part 108 rotates to a position close to or opposite to the position of the first sensor 114, that is, the free end and the hinged end are both located on the same radial side of the lens 100, at this time, the first variable diameter part 108 is approximately parallel to the optical axis of the lens 100, so that light transmitted by the lens 100 can be avoided, and the light is directly emitted to the first photosensitive chip 104. Further, at this position, since the free end of the first variable diameter part 108 is close to or opposite to the position of the first sensor 114, the first sensor 114 can sense the first signal provided by the first signal generator 112 at the free end, that is, the first signal sensed by the first sensor 114 at this time is the maximum, so as to determine that the first variable diameter part 108 is located at a position avoiding light rays, or in the first position, and further determine that the final projection position of the light rays of the lens 100 is the first photosensitive chip 104.

The camera module 10 further comprises a second sensor 116. The second sensor 116 is also used to sense the first signal. It will be appreciated that the second sensor 116 is located differently from the first sensor 114 to facilitate determining the second location of the first diameter change member 108. Specifically, the second sensor 116 is also provided on the module frame 172, but the second sensor 116 is provided on the other side of the lens 100 in the radial direction with respect to the first sensor 114.

As shown in fig. 2, when the free end of the first variable diameter part 108 rotates to be close to the second sensor 116, that is, the free end rotates to the other side of the radial direction of the lens 100, or the first variable diameter part 108 rotates from one side of the radial direction of the lens 100 to the other side of the radial direction of the lens 100. At this time, the first variable diameter part 108 is located at the second position, and since the hinged end is not moved, the first variable diameter part 108 is blocked between the lens 100 and the first photosensitive chip 104, and the reflective surface of the first variable diameter part 108 faces the lens 100, so that light rays of the lens 100 can be reflected, and the light rays can be emitted to the second variable diameter part 128.

Since the free end of the first diameter changing element 108 now rotates to a position proximate to the second sensor 116, away from the first sensor 114. At this time, the second sensor 116 is opposite to the first signal generator 112, so that the second sensor 116 can sense the first signal provided by the first signal generator 112 on the free end, that is, the first signal sensed by the second sensor 116 at this time is the largest, and the first signal sensed by the first sensor 114 is the smallest, so as to determine that the first variable diameter part 108 is located at the second position, and thus determine that the light of the lens 100 is emitted to the second photosensitive chip 106 or the third photosensitive chip 132.

The second photosensitive chip 106 may be disposed side by side with the first photosensitive chip 104, may be disposed obliquely with respect to the first photosensitive chip 104, or may be disposed vertically.

In any of the above embodiments, the camera module 10 further includes a first circuit board 118, a first filter 122, a second filter 130, and a first base 120.

Specifically, the first circuit board 118 is disposed on the module frame 172 and opposite to the lens 100. The first photosensitive chip 104 and the second photosensitive chip 106 are disposed side by side on the first wiring board 118. By providing the first circuit board 118, the first photosensitive chip 104 and the second photosensitive chip 106 can be carried and electrically connected to the first photosensitive chip 104 and the second photosensitive chip 106, so as to transmit electrical signals to the first photosensitive chip 104 and the second photosensitive chip 106.

The first chassis 120 is disposed on the module frame 172. The first base 120 is used to construct a black cavity of the camera module 10. The first filter 122 and the second filter 130 are respectively disposed on the first base 120. The first filter 122 is located between the lens 100 and the first photosensitive chip 104. The second filter 130 is located on a side of the second light sensing chip 106 away from the first circuit board 118, and is spaced apart from the second light sensing chip 106. The first filter 122 and the second filter 130 are used for filtering light rays, or for filtering light rays other than visible light, so as to improve the imaging quality of the first photosensitive chip 104 and the second photosensitive chip 106.

In other embodiments, the first chassis 120 and the first circuit board 118 are not disposed on the module frame 172, but constitute a part of the module frame 172, or the first circuit board 118 and the first chassis 120 are a part of the module frame 172.

It can be understood that since the second photo sensor chip 106 and the first photo sensor chip 104 are disposed side by side on the first circuit board 118, since the first photo sensor chip 104 is opposite to the lens 100, the second photo sensor chip 106 is at an oblique angle with respect to the lens 100, and when the first variable diameter member 108 avoids the light transmitted by the lens 100, the light can only be transmitted to the first photo sensor chip 104. Thus, by providing the second diameter piece 128, it is possible to cooperate with the first diameter piece 108 to direct light to the second sensor chip 106.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, when the second photosensitive chip 106 is needed, the first variable diameter part 108 is first rotated to a position between the first photosensitive chip 104 and the lens 100, that is, the first variable diameter part 108 is located at the second position, so that the reflective surface of the first variable diameter part 108 is obliquely opposite to the lens 100, and meanwhile, the reflective surface of the second variable diameter part 128 is also obliquely arranged and is opposite to the reflective surfaces of the second photosensitive chip 106 and the first variable diameter part 108. The light enters the module frame 172 through the lens 100, is projected onto the first variable diameter member 108, is reflected by the first variable diameter member 108, is projected onto the second variable diameter member 128, is reflected again by the second variable diameter member 128, and is projected onto the second photosensitive chip 106.

Set up second sensitization chip 106 and first sensitization chip 104 on same circuit board to adopt second reducing 128 to come to second sensitization chip 106 projection light, can reduce the quantity and the position setting of circuit board, simplify module 10 part quantity and the processing technology time of making a video recording, promote production efficiency. In addition, through the setting of second reducing 128, be favorable to lengthening between second sensitization chip 106 and camera lens 100, the distance that light walked to the focus of lengthening second sensitization chip 106 promotes the effect of shooing.

It will be appreciated that to ensure that the second diameter changing element 128 is able to receive and reflect light reflected by the first diameter changing element 108, the second diameter changing element 128 is disposed on the side of the first diameter changing element 108 remote from the lens 100. Meanwhile, to ensure that the light other than visible light can be filtered before the light is projected to the second photosensitive chip 106, the second reducer 128 is disposed on a side of the second optical filter 130 away from the second photosensitive chip 106, or the second optical filter 130 is disposed between the second reducer 128 and the second photosensitive chip 106. Thus, the light reflected by the second variable element 128 needs to pass through the second filter 130 before being projected onto the second photosensitive chip 106.

In a further embodiment, the third photosensitive chip 132 is opposite to the second photosensitive chip 106, and the second reducer 128 is located between the second photosensitive chip 106 and the third photosensitive chip 132.

The second diameter changing part 128 is hinged. The second diameter changing piece 128 is hinged, so that the reflecting surface of the second diameter changing piece 128 can be turned to the second photosensitive chip 106 or the third photosensitive chip 132, and light can be emitted to the second photosensitive chip 106 or the third photosensitive chip 132.

The second adapter 128 is hinged so that the second adapter 128 can reflect light to the second photosensitive chip 106 or the third photosensitive chip 132. Thus, only one lens 100 is used, and two variable parts are added, so that the photosensitive chips at three different positions can be used. And through setting up between each sensitization chip, the distance between sensitization chip and the reducing part, just can realize different focuses, that is to say, between the different sensitization chips, can realize different focuses to a camera lens 100 just can realize different focuses and shoot, makes the module 10 of making a video recording can adapt to the shooting of different scenes, the shooting of different objects, has promoted the convenience that the module 10 of making a video recording used by a wide margin, has promoted the performance of shooing of the module 10 of making a video recording. Meanwhile, because first reducing part 108, second reducing part 128 set up in the preceding interval department just needs originally of sensitization chip, consequently do not occupy extra space, for the technical scheme that three sensitization chip needs three camera lens 100, the module 10 of making a video recording of this application embodiment has reduced the quantity of accessory by a wide margin, has reduced the accessory and to the occupation of inner space, is favorable to guaranteeing the parking space of battery to can increase the battery volume, ensure electronic equipment's continuation of the journey performance. Compared with the mode of arranging a plurality of lenses 100, the mode of arranging the first variable diameter part 108 and the second variable diameter part 128 is simpler in structure and simple in production process, and is beneficial to shortening a process route and improving production efficiency.

Further, to facilitate identifying the location of the second diameter changing element 128, the camera module 10 further includes a second signal generator 134, a third sensor 136, a third signal generator 138, and a fourth sensor 140. A second signal generator 134 is provided at one end of the second diameter change 128 and a third signal generator 138 is provided at the other end of the second diameter change 128. The second signal generator 134 is configured to provide a third signal, the second sensor 116 is configured to sense the third signal, the third signal generator 138 is configured to provide a fourth signal, and the fourth sensor 140 is configured to sense the fourth signal.

Specifically, the second signal generator 134 is disposed at an end of the second diameter changing member 128 close to the second photosensitive chip 106, and rotates with the rotation of the second diameter changing member 128. The third sensor 136 is disposed on the module frame 172. The third sensor 136 is disposed at a position close to the second photosensitive chip 106, or the distance between the third sensor 136 and the second photosensitive chip 106 is smaller than the distance between the third sensor 136 and the third photosensitive chip 132. As shown in fig. 2, when the second diameter changing part 128 rotates until the reflection surface faces the second photosensitive chip 106, the end provided with the second signal generator 134 is close to the third sensor 136, so that the third sensor 136 is opposite to the second signal generator 134, and the third sensor 136 senses the second signal, or the second signal sensed by the third sensor 136 is the largest at this time, so that it can be determined that the second diameter changing part 128 rotates to a position where the light can be reflected to the second photosensitive chip 106, and at this time, the user can take a picture using the second photosensitive chip 106.

Similarly, a third signal generator 138 is disposed at an end of the second diameter changing member 128 near the third photosensitive chip 132, and rotates with the rotation of the second diameter changing member 128. The fourth sensor 140 is disposed on the module frame 172. The fourth sensor 140 is disposed at a position close to the third photosensitive chip 132, that is, the distance between the fourth sensor 140 and the second photosensitive chip 106 is greater than the distance between the fourth sensor 140 and the third photosensitive chip 132, that is, the fourth sensor 140 is disposed between the third sensor 136 and the third photosensitive chip 132, and the third sensor 136 is disposed between the fourth sensor 140 and the second photosensitive chip 106. As shown in fig. 3, when the second diameter changing member 128 rotates until the reflection surface thereof faces the third photosensitive chip 132, the end provided with the third signal generator 138 is close to the fourth sensor 140, so that the fourth sensor 140 is opposite to the third signal generator 138, and the fourth sensor 140 senses the third signal, or the third signal sensed by the fourth sensor 140 is the maximum at this time, it can be determined that the second diameter changing member 128 rotates to a position where the light can be reflected to the third photosensitive chip 132, and then the user can take a picture using the third photosensitive chip 132 at this time.

It is understood that the camera module 10 further includes a second rotating bracket 152. The second diameter changing element 128 is disposed on the second rotating bracket 152 and rotates with the second rotating bracket 152. Since the second diameter changing member 128 is disposed between the second photosensitive chip 106 and the third photosensitive chip 132, that is, the third diameter changing member needs to be rotated toward one end in some cases and rotated toward the other end in some cases, the second rotating bracket 152 is disposed at a position between two ends of the second diameter changing member 128 to ensure that the reflection surface of the second diameter changing member 128 can be turned toward both the second photosensitive chip 106 and the third photosensitive chip 132.

As shown in fig. 3 and 4, it can be further understood that as the second diameter changing element 128 rotates to two ends, the two ends of the second diameter changing element are moved up and down like a seesaw, so that when the end with the second signal generator 134 is close to the third sensor 136, the end with the third signal generator 138 is far away from the fourth sensor 140, and the second signal sensed by the third sensor 136 is the largest, and the third signal sensed by the fourth sensor 140 is the smallest; when the end with the second signal generator 134 is far away from the third sensor 136, the end with the third signal generator 138 is close to the fourth sensor 140, and the second signal sensed by the third sensor 136 is minimum and the third signal sensed by the fourth sensor 140 is maximum.

As shown in fig. 4, in some embodiments, the second rotating bracket 152 is driven by a motor 164. The motor 164 is in transmission connection with the second rotating bracket 152 through a transmission assembly.

Specifically, the module frame 172 further has a cavity 154 therein. The second rotating bracket 152 is disposed within a cavity 154. The cavity 154 has sidewalls. The camera module 10 further includes a first bearing 158, a second bearing 162, a first link 156, a second link 160, and a transmission assembly.

As shown in fig. 4, the first bearing 158 and the second bearing 162 are respectively disposed on opposite sidewalls of the cavity 154. Namely, a first bearing 158 is provided on one side wall of the cavity 154, and a second bearing 162 is provided on the other side wall.
