Description

本発明は、撮像素子を支持した撮像素子支持基板の撮像素子ホルダに対する取付角度を調整するアオリ調整機構に関する。   The present invention relates to a tilt adjustment mechanism that adjusts an attachment angle of an image sensor support substrate that supports an image sensor to an image sensor holder.

デジタルカメラ等の撮像装置では、撮像開口を有する撮像素子ホルダに、該撮像開口を通過した撮影光束を受光する撮像素子を固定している。この固定に際しては、撮像素子を支持した撮像素子支持基板と撮像素子ホルダとの間に、撮像素子の周囲に位置させて、両者を離間方向に付勢するコイルばねと、このコイルばねの付勢力に抗して撮像素子支持基板を撮像素子ホルダに固定する固定ねじとを3つずつ配設し、各固定ねじのねじ込み量を調整することで、撮像素子表面が光軸と正しく直交するように傾き(チルト)を調整している(特許文献1)。   In an imaging device such as a digital camera, an imaging device that receives a photographic light beam that has passed through the imaging aperture is fixed to an imaging device holder having an imaging aperture. At the time of fixing, a coil spring is disposed between the imaging element support substrate supporting the imaging element and the imaging element holder, and is urged in a separating direction, and an urging force of the coil spring. 3 fixing screws for fixing the image sensor support substrate to the image sensor holder against each other and adjusting the screwing amount of each fixing screw so that the surface of the image sensor is correctly orthogonal to the optical axis The tilt is adjusted (Patent Document 1).

また、撮像素子のアオリ調整機構として、レンズを保持する筐体に撮像素子を取り付けるにあたり、筐体の内部に、前方から順に、矩形の開口部を有する弾性部材、この弾性部材に接触させた撮像素子、平板状の固定部材を配置し、この固定部材に螺合され先端が撮像素子の背面に当接する3本の調整ねじをねじ込んで弾性部材を圧縮変形させ、撮像素子の取付角度を調整するものも知られている(特許文献2)。   In addition, as the tilt adjustment mechanism of the image pickup device, when the image pickup device is attached to the housing that holds the lens, an elastic member having a rectangular opening in order from the front inside the housing, and imaging that is brought into contact with the elastic member An element and a flat fixing member are arranged, and three adjusting screws whose ends are brought into contact with the back surface of the imaging element are screwed into the fixing member to compress and deform the elastic member, thereby adjusting the mounting angle of the imaging element.

しかしながら、特許文献1の撮像素子のアオリ調整機構にあっては、3本の固定ねじに対応させて3個のコイルばねを必須とするため、部品点数、組立性、コストのいずれの点でも改良の余地がある。   However, in the tilt adjustment mechanism of the image sensor disclosed in Patent Document 1, since three coil springs are essential to correspond to the three fixing screws, the number of components, assemblability, and cost are improved. There is room for.

また、特許文献2の撮像素子のアオリ調整機構にあっては、弾性部材が3本の調整ねじを平面的に結ぶ三角形の内側ではなく外側だけに位置している、特にこの三角形の任意の一辺の延長線によって2つの領域を規定したとき、いずれの一辺を基準としても三角形が位置しない側の領域に必ず弾性部材が位置しているため、この弾性部材の圧縮に追従するために別部材としてのアオリ調整コイルばねを設ける必要があり、これを設けないと好適なアオリ調整を行うことが難しい。   Further, in the tilt adjustment mechanism of the image pickup element of Patent Document 2, the elastic member is located only on the outer side, not on the inner side of the triangle connecting the three adjusting screws in a plane. When the two regions are defined by the extension line, since the elastic member is always located in the region where the triangle is not located with respect to any one side, as a separate member to follow the compression of this elastic member It is necessary to provide a tilt adjustment coil spring, and it is difficult to perform suitable tilt adjustment unless this is provided.

本発明は、以上の問題意識に基づき、3本の固定ねじに対応させて必須とされていた3個のコイルばねの数を減らす(なくす)と同時に好適なアオリ調整を行うことができる撮像素子のアオリ調整機構を得ることを目的とする。   The present invention is based on the above problem awareness, and can reduce (eliminate) the number of three coil springs, which have been essential in correspondence with the three fixing screws, and at the same time perform an appropriate tilt adjustment.

Based on the viewpoint that if a pressing rib in contact is provided, this pressing rib can reduce (eliminate) the number of coil springs by replacing the function of a conventional coil spring, and at the same time, suitable tilt adjustment can be performed. It has been made.

Screw) and is located around the image sensor 41.

ゴムパッキン30は、図4にその自由状態における単体形状を示すように、中央に開口を有し四隅が丸みを帯びたフレーム部31を有している。このフレーム部31の光軸O方向の後方には、フレーム部31の全周に亘って閉じられた形状で設けられた遮光リブ32と、この遮光リブ32の内周側に不連続(間欠的、離散的)に設けられた押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rとが延出形成されている(遮光リブ32と押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rがフレーム部31で繋がっている)。本実施形態の押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rは、フレーム部31の各辺(平面矩形の撮像素子41の各辺)に対応する上下左右に4つ設けられている。遮光リブ32は、自由状態においてフレーム部31の外側に向かって延びており、押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rは、自由状態においてフレーム部31の後方に向かって延びている。遮光リブ32の自由状態における光軸O方向の後方の先端は、押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rの自由状態における光軸O方向の先端よりも光軸O方向の後方に位置しており、遮光リブ32は、薄く形成されていることにより押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rよりも変形しやすい柔軟な形状となっている(単位変形量当たりの弾性反力が小さくなっている)。
ゴムパッキン30を撮像素子ユニット10に組付けた状態では、遮光リブ32は、弾性変形した状態で撮像素子41の表面周囲に当接して撮像素子41への有害光線の入射を防ぎ、押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rは、撮像素子41によって光軸O方向の前方に押圧されることによりローパスフィルタ20を撮像素子ホルダ10に対して押圧する。
また、押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rは、ローパスフィルタ20の背面周囲に当接し、ローパスフィルタ20をフラットに押圧するフィルタ支持面34を有している。
The rubber packing 30 has a frame portion 31 having an opening at the center and rounded corners as shown in FIG. On the rear side of the frame portion 31 in the optical axis O direction, the light shielding rib 32 provided in a closed shape over the entire circumference of the frame portion 31 and discontinuous (intermittently) on the inner circumferential side of the light shielding rib 32. The pressure ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, and 33R provided in a discrete manner are extended and formed (the light shielding rib 32 and the pressure ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, and 33R are connected by the frame portion 31). Four pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, and 33R of the present embodiment are provided on the top, bottom, left, and right corresponding to each side of the frame portion 31 (each side of the planar rectangular imaging element 41). The light shielding rib 32 extends toward the outside of the frame portion 31 in the free state, and the pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, and 33R extend toward the rear of the frame portion 31 in the free state. The rear end in the optical axis O direction in the free state of the light shielding rib 32 is located behind the front end in the optical axis O direction in the free state of the pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, 33R, and Since the light shielding rib 32 is formed thin, it has a flexible shape that is more easily deformed than the pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, and 33R (the elastic reaction force per unit deformation amount is small).
In a state in which the rubber packing 30 is assembled to the image sensor unit 10, the light shielding rib 32 abuts around the surface of the image sensor 41 in an elastically deformed state to prevent the incidence of harmful rays on the image sensor 41, and the pressing rib 33U. , 33D, 33L, and 33R press the low-pass filter 20 against the image sensor holder 10 by being pressed forward in the optical axis O direction by the image sensor 41.
Further, the pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, and 33R have a filter support surface 34 that contacts the periphery of the back surface of the low-pass filter 20 and presses the low-pass filter 20 flatly.

以上の構成の撮像素子ユニット100は、次のように組み立てる。まず撮像素子ホルダ10のローパスフィルタ支持段部12にローパスフィルタ20を位置させ、次いでゴムパッキン支持段部13にゴムパッキン30を位置させ、次いで撮像素子支持基板43のボス穴45に撮像素子ホルダ10のボス16を挿通して貫通穴44A−44Cとねじ穴15A−15Cの位置を対応させ、ねじ穴15A−15Cに3つの固定ねじ50A−50Cを螺合させる。これにより、アオリ調整用コイルばね46の付勢力に抗して撮像素子アッシ40(撮像素子支持基板43)が光軸O方向の後方から撮像素子ホルダ10に固定され、撮像素子アッシ40(撮像素子41)が撮像開口11の光軸O方向の後方に位置して撮像素子ホルダ10に支持されるとともに、撮像開口11の周囲内面と撮像素子アッシ40(撮像素子41)の間にローパスフィルタ20及びゴムパッキン30が挟着される。図3は、この撮像素子ユニット10の組立状態(ゴムパッキン30については組立状態でなく自由状態)を示している。   The image sensor unit 100 having the above configuration is assembled as follows. First, the low-pass filter 20 is positioned on the low-pass filter support step 12 of the image sensor holder 10, then the rubber packing 30 is positioned on the rubber packing support step 13, and then the image sensor holder 10 in the boss hole 45 of the image sensor support substrate 43. The through holes 44A-44C and screw holes 15A-15C are made to correspond to each other, and three fixing screws 50A-50C are screwed into the screw holes 15A-15C. Thus, the image sensor assembly 40 (image sensor support substrate 43) is fixed to the image sensor holder 10 from the rear in the direction of the optical axis O against the biasing force of the tilt adjustment coil spring 46, and the image sensor assembly 40 (image sensor) 41) is positioned behind the image pickup opening 11 in the optical axis O direction and supported by the image pickup element holder 10, and the low pass filter 20 and Rubber packing 30 is sandwiched. FIG. 3 shows the assembled state of the image sensor unit 10 (the rubber packing 30 is not in an assembled state but in a free state).

ゴムパッキン30と撮像素子アッシ40(撮像素子41)が接近すると、まず遮光リブ32の先端が撮像素子41に当接し、その後遮光リブ32はフレーム部31の外側(図3中のA方向)に向かって弾性変形する。このとき遮光リブ32は、撮像素子41に有害な押圧力を及ぼすことなく大きく弾性変形するので、撮像素子41への有害光線の入射経路を遮断して高い遮光機能が得られるとともに、撮像素子41への埃や粉塵の侵入を遮断して高い防塵機能が得られる。また、遮光リブ32の先端が押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rの先端より光軸O方向の後方に位置しているので、アオリ調整などで撮像素子アッシ40(撮像素子41)の位置が後方に下がった場合でも十分な遮光機能が得られる。また、押圧リブ33が撮像素子41と当接する前に十分な遮光状態が得られる。   When the rubber packing 30 and the image sensor assembly 40 (image sensor 41) approach each other, first, the tip of the light shielding rib 32 comes into contact with the image sensor 41, and then the light shielding rib 32 is located outside the frame portion 31 (direction A in FIG. 3). It is elastically deformed. At this time, since the light shielding rib 32 is elastically deformed greatly without exerting a harmful pressing force on the image sensor 41, a high light shielding function can be obtained by blocking the incident path of harmful rays to the image sensor 41 and the image sensor 41. High dust-proof function can be obtained by blocking the intrusion of dust and dust. Further, since the tip of the light shielding rib 32 is located behind the tip of the pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, and 33R in the direction of the optical axis O, the position of the image sensor assembly 40 (image sensor 41) is rearward due to tilt adjustment or the like. Even if it falls to, a sufficient light shielding function can be obtained. In addition, a sufficient light shielding state can be obtained before the pressing rib 33 contacts the image sensor 41.

ゴムパッキン30と撮像素子アッシ40(撮像素子41)がさらに接近していくと、やがて押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rの先端が撮像素子41に当接し、その後押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rは、フレーム部31の中心側(図3中のB方向)に向かって弾性変形する。このとき押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rは、先端が弾性変形しやすいように尖っている先端部を撓ませることによって、撮像素子41にかかる力を適度に逃がす。押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rは、4つが不連続(間欠的、離散的)に設けられていて、独立して弾性変形するので、押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rが撮像素子41を押圧し過ぎることがなく、撮像素子41から出力される画像データに悪影響が生じることがない(画像データに悪影響が生じるような押圧力を与えるおそれがない)。すなわち、撮像素子自体が撓んで撮像素子41が光軸O方向の後方(図3中のC方向)にずれることはなく、撮像素子41から良好な画像データを出力することができる。   As the rubber packing 30 and the imaging element assembly 40 (imaging element 41) further approach each other, the tips of the pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, and 33R eventually come into contact with the imaging element 41, and then the pressing ribs 33U, 33D, and 33L, The 33R is elastically deformed toward the center side of the frame portion 31 (direction B in FIG. 3). At this time, the pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, and 33R appropriately release the force applied to the image sensor 41 by bending the sharp tip so that the tip is easily elastically deformed. Four pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, and 33R are provided discontinuously (intermittently and discretely) and are elastically deformed independently. Therefore, the pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, and 33R are used for the imaging element 41. The image data output from the image sensor 41 is not adversely affected without being pressed too much (there is no possibility of giving a pressing force that adversely affects the image data). That is, the image pickup device 41 is not bent and the image pickup device 41 is not displaced rearward in the optical axis O direction (C direction in FIG. 3), and good image data can be output from the image pickup device 41.

撮像素子41が押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rを押圧すると、フィルタ支持面34がローパスフィルタ20の側(図3中のD方向)に弾性変形するので、ローパスフィルタ支持段部12とフィルタ支持面34の間にローパスフィルタ20を確実に保持することができる。このとき、フィルタ支持面34がローパスフィルタ20をフラットに押圧するので、ローパスフィルタ20の光軸方向位置を確実に規定することができる。   When the image pickup element 41 presses the pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, and 33R, the filter support surface 34 is elastically deformed toward the low-pass filter 20 (direction D in FIG. 3), so the low-pass filter support step 12 and the filter support The low pass filter 20 can be reliably held between the surfaces 34. At this time, since the filter support surface 34 presses the low-pass filter 20 flatly, the position of the low-pass filter 20 in the optical axis direction can be defined reliably.

そして本実施形態では、図5に示すように、3つの固定ねじ50A−50Cのねじ込み量を調整することにより、3つの固定ねじ50A−50Cを平面的に結ぶ三角形T1の内側に位置するアオリ調整用コイルばね46の弾性力と、三角形T1の内外に位置する4つの押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rの弾性力とを利用して、撮像素子41の表面が光軸と正しく直交するように傾き(チルト)を調整(アオリ調整)することができる。   And in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, by adjusting the screwing amount of the three fixing screws 50A-50C, the tilt adjustment located inside the triangle T1 connecting the three fixing screws 50A-50C in a plane. By utilizing the elastic force of the coil spring 46 and the elastic forces of the four pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, and 33R located inside and outside of the triangle T1, the surface of the image sensor 41 is correctly orthogonal to the optical axis. Tilt can be adjusted (tilt adjustment).

より具体的には、本実施の形態では、三角形T1の固定ねじ50Aと50Cを結ぶ辺の延長線によって2つの領域を規定したときは、三角形T1が位置する側の領域に押圧リブ33U,33Lが位置し、三角形T1が位置しない側の領域に押圧リブ33D,33Rが位置している。一方、三角形T1の固定ねじ50Aと50Bを結ぶ辺の延長線によって2つの領域を規定したとき及び三角形T1の固定ねじ50Bと50Cを結ぶ辺の延長線によって2つの領域を規定したときは、三角形T1が位置する側の領域に全ての押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rが位置している。   More specifically, in the present embodiment, when two regions are defined by the extended lines of the sides connecting the fixing screws 50A and 50C of the triangle T1, the pressing ribs 33U and 33L are formed in the region on the side where the triangle T1 is located. The pressing ribs 33D and 33R are located in the region where the triangle T1 is not located. On the other hand, when two regions are defined by the extension line of the side connecting the fixing screws 50A and 50B of the triangle T1, and when two regions are defined by the extension line of the side connecting the fixing screws 50B and 50C of the triangle T1, the triangle All the pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, and 33R are located in the region on the side where T1 is located.

したがって、固定ねじ50A又は50Cを緩めたときは、全ての押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rの弾性力によって、撮像素子支持基板43のうち緩めた固定ねじの側の部位が浮き上がる。一方、固定ねじ50Bを緩めたときは、三角形T1の内側に位置する押圧リブ33U,33Lの弾性力と同三角形T1の外側に位置する押圧リブ33D,33Rの弾性力がつりあってしまうため、撮像素子支持基板43のうち固定ねじ50Bの側の部位が浮き上がれない。そのため、三角形T1の内側にアオリ調整用コイルばね46を設けて、このアオリ調整用コイルばね46の反発力により三角形T1の外側に位置する押圧リブ33D,33Rが圧縮され、撮像素子支持基板43のうち固定ねじ50Bの側の部位を浮き上がらせることができる。これにより、固定ねじ50A−50Cのいずれを緩めたりねじ込んだりした場合であっても、撮像素子支持基板43のうち調整した固定ねじの側の部位が固定ねじに追従して上がったり下がったりする。   Therefore, when the fixing screw 50A or 50C is loosened, the loosened fixing screw side portion of the image sensor support substrate 43 is lifted by the elastic force of all the pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, 33R. On the other hand, when the fixing screw 50B is loosened, the elastic force of the pressing ribs 33U and 33L positioned inside the triangle T1 and the elastic force of the pressing ribs 33D and 33R positioned outside the triangle T1 are balanced, and thus imaging is performed. The part of the element support substrate 43 on the side of the fixing screw 50B cannot be lifted. Therefore, the tilt adjustment coil spring 46 is provided inside the triangle T 1, and the pressing ribs 33 D and 33 R positioned outside the triangle T 1 are compressed by the repulsive force of the tilt adjustment coil spring 46, so that the imaging element support substrate 43 Of these, the portion on the fixing screw 50B side can be lifted. Thereby, even if any of the fixing screws 50A to 50C is loosened or screwed in, the portion of the image pickup device support substrate 43 on the adjusted fixing screw side is raised or lowered following the fixing screw.

以上のように、三角形T1の内側に位置するアオリ調整用コイルばね46と、同三角形T1の内外に位置する全ての押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rが撮像素子ホルダ10と撮像素子支持基板43とを離間させる方向に付勢する付勢手段としての作用を負担する。3つの固定ねじ50A−50Cは、この付勢力に抗して撮像素子支持基板43を撮像素子ホルダ10に固定するものであるから、この3つの固定ねじ50A−50Cの螺合量を調整することにより、撮像素子41の傾き(チルト量)を調整することができる。図示実施形態では、4個の押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rの他に必要な付勢手段は、1つのアオリ調整用コイルばね46だけであり、別部材としての付勢手段の数を減らすことができる。   As described above, the tilt adjusting coil spring 46 located inside the triangle T1 and all the pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, and 33R located inside and outside the triangle T1 are the image sensor holder 10 and the image sensor support substrate 43. The function as an urging means for urging them in the direction of separating them is borne. Since the three fixing screws 50A-50C are for fixing the image pickup device support substrate 43 to the image pickup device holder 10 against the biasing force, the screwing amount of the three fixing screws 50A-50C is adjusted. Thus, the tilt (tilt amount) of the image sensor 41 can be adjusted. In the illustrated embodiment, the only urging means required in addition to the four pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, 33R is only one tilt adjusting coil spring 46, and the number of urging means as separate members is reduced. be able to.

上述した従来の撮像素子のアオリ調整機構では、3つの固定ねじ50A−50Cに対応させて3個のアオリ調整用コイルばねを設けることが必須であった。これに対し本実施の形態では、2個のアオリ調整用コイルばね(の弾性力)に代えてゴムパッキン30の4つの押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33R(の弾性力)を用いることで、3つの固定ねじ50A−50Cと1個のアオリ調整用コイルばね46だけでアオリ調整を行うことができる。その結果、2個のアオリ調整用コイルばねを削減し、組立性を向上させ、コストを低減することができる。   In the conventional tilt adjustment mechanism of the image pickup device described above, it is essential to provide three tilt adjustment coil springs corresponding to the three fixing screws 50A to 50C. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the four pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, and 33R (elastic force) of the rubber packing 30 are used instead of the two tilt adjustment coil springs (elastic force thereof). The tilt adjustment can be performed with only three fixing screws 50A-50C and one tilt adjusting coil spring 46. As a result, two tilt adjusting coil springs can be reduced, the assemblability can be improved, and the cost can be reduced.

図6は、本発明の撮像素子のアオリ調整機構の別の実施形態を示している。図6では、図5において三角形T1の外側に位置する2つの押圧リブ33D,33Rを省略して、三角形T1の内側に全ての押圧リブ33U,33Lが存在している。これにより、固定ねじ50A−50Cのいずれを緩めたりねじ込んだりした場合であっても、三角形T1の内側に位置する全ての押圧リブ33U,33Lの弾性力だけを利用して、撮像素子支持基板43のうち調整した固定ねじの側の部位が固定ねじに追従して上がったり下がったりして好適なアオリ調整を行うことができる。また、三角形T1の内側に位置する押圧リブの圧縮に追従するために別部材としてのアオリ調整用コイルばねを設ける必要がなく、組立性を向上させ、コストを低減することができる。   FIG. 6 shows another embodiment of the tilt adjustment mechanism of the image sensor of the present invention. In FIG. 6, the two pressing ribs 33D and 33R located outside the triangle T1 in FIG. 5 are omitted, and all the pressing ribs 33U and 33L exist inside the triangle T1. Thereby, even when any of the fixing screws 50A to 50C is loosened or screwed in, only the elastic force of all the pressing ribs 33U and 33L located inside the triangle T1 is used, and the image sensor supporting substrate 43 is used. Among them, a portion on the side of the adjusted fixing screw can be raised or lowered following the fixing screw, and suitable tilt adjustment can be performed. Further, there is no need to provide a tilt adjusting coil spring as a separate member in order to follow the compression of the pressing rib located inside the triangle T1, and the assembling property can be improved and the cost can be reduced.

図7は、本発明の撮像素子のアオリ調整機構のさらに別の実施形態を示している。図7では、図5において3つの固定ねじ50A,50B,50Cに代えて、配置位置を変えた3つの固定ねじ50D,50E,50Fを設け、これら3つの固定ねじ50D−50Fを平面的に結ぶ三角形T2の内側に全ての押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rが存在している。この実施形態でも図6の実施形態と同じように、固定ねじ50D−50Fのいずれを緩めたりねじ込んだりした場合であっても、三角形T2の内側に位置する全ての押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rの弾性力だけを利用して、撮像素子支持基板43のうち調整した固定ねじの側の部位が固定ねじに追従して上がったり下がったりして好適なアオリ調整を行うことができる。また、三角形T2の内側に位置する押圧リブの圧縮に追従するために別部材としてのアオリ調整用コイルばねを設ける必要がなく、組立性を向上させ、コストを低減することができる。さらに図7の実施形態によれば、押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rが上下左右に均等に位置しているので、図6の実施形態とは異なり、撮像素子41を均一に押圧することが可能である。   FIG. 7 shows still another embodiment of the tilt adjustment mechanism of the image sensor of the present invention. In FIG. 7, instead of the three fixing screws 50A, 50B, and 50C in FIG. 5, three fixing screws 50D, 50E, and 50F whose arrangement positions are changed are provided, and these three fixing screws 50D-50F are connected in a plane. All the pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, and 33R are present inside the triangle T2. In this embodiment, as in the embodiment of FIG. 6, even if any of the fixing screws 50D-50F is loosened or screwed, all the pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L located inside the triangle T2 By using only the elastic force of 33R, the position of the adjusted fixing screw side of the image sensor support substrate 43 can be raised or lowered following the fixing screw, so that suitable tilt adjustment can be performed. Further, there is no need to provide a tilt adjusting coil spring as a separate member in order to follow the compression of the pressing rib located inside the triangle T2, and the assemblability can be improved and the cost can be reduced. Furthermore, according to the embodiment of FIG. 7, the pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, and 33R are evenly positioned vertically and horizontally, so that unlike the embodiment of FIG. 6, the image sensor 41 can be pressed uniformly. Is possible.

図8は本発明の撮像素子のアオリ調整機構の変形例を示しており、図6の押圧リブ33U,33Lに代えて三角フレーム形状の押圧リブ35を設けている。また、図9は本発明の撮像素子のアオリ調整機構の変形例を示しており、図7の押圧リブ33U,33D,33L、33Rに代えて四角フレーム形状の押圧リブ36を設けている。本変形例に示すように、押圧リブは必ずしも不連続に設ける必要はなく連続的に設けてもよいし、その形状も問わない。   FIG. 8 shows a modification of the tilt adjustment mechanism of the image pickup device of the present invention, in which triangular frame-shaped pressing ribs 35 are provided in place of the pressing ribs 33U and 33L in FIG. FIG. 9 shows a modification of the tilt adjusting mechanism of the image pickup device of the present invention, and a square frame-shaped pressing rib 36 is provided in place of the pressing ribs 33U, 33D, 33L, and 33R in FIG. As shown in this modification, the pressing ribs do not necessarily need to be discontinuously provided, and may be provided continuously, and the shape thereof is not limited.
