Description

この発明は、撮像素子及び基板を覆うようにシールド部材を取付けるための技術に関する。   The present invention relates to a technique for attaching a shield member so as to cover an imaging element and a substrate.

CCD等の撮像素子を用いたカメラ装置では、外部から内部への又は内部から外部への電磁ノイズ対策を図る必要がある。かかるノイズ対策として、撮像素子を覆うようにシールド部材を配設した構成のものがある。   In a camera device using an image sensor such as a CCD, it is necessary to take measures against electromagnetic noise from the outside to the inside or from the inside to the outside. As a countermeasure against such noise, there is a configuration in which a shield member is disposed so as to cover the imaging element.

シールド部材で撮像素子を覆うようにして固定する構成として、図12に示す構成が提案されている。   A configuration shown in FIG. 12 has been proposed as a configuration for fixing the imaging element so as to cover it with a shield member.

図12では、基板100の一主面に撮像素子102が実装固定されている。また、この基板100の一主面側で撮像素子102を覆うようにして略筺状のシールド部材104が配設されている。このシールド部材104には、撮像素子102の撮像面102aを外部に臨ませるための開口部104hが形成されている。なお、撮像素子102の撮像面102aには、光学フィルタ103a,103bが設けられている。   In FIG. 12, the image sensor 102 is mounted and fixed on one main surface of the substrate 100. In addition, a substantially bowl-shaped shield member 104 is disposed so as to cover the imaging element 102 on one main surface side of the substrate 100. The shield member 104 is formed with an opening 104h for allowing the imaging surface 102a of the imaging element 102 to face the outside. Note that optical filters 103 a and 103 b are provided on the imaging surface 102 a of the imaging element 102.

また、これら基板100及び撮像素子102を収容するケース110の内部に、ねじ止用のボス部112が立設されている。上記ケース110の前部には、レンズ114を保持するためのレンズホルダ111が突出形成されており、このレンズホルダ111内にレンズ114が収容固定される。   Further, a boss 112 for screwing is provided upright in a case 110 that accommodates the substrate 100 and the image sensor 102. A lens holder 111 for holding the lens 114 is formed on the front portion of the case 110 so as to protrude. The lens 114 is accommodated and fixed in the lens holder 111.

本構成において、ケース110に対する基板100及び撮像素子102、シールド部材104の組付は次のようにしてなされる。   In this configuration, the substrate 100, the image sensor 102, and the shield member 104 are assembled to the case 110 as follows.

すなわち、基板100のコーナー部分及びシールド部材104の取付片104Pを、ボス部112上で重ね合せるようにして、基板100及びシールド部材104をケース110内に収容配置する。そして、基板100をレンズ114の光軸に対して略直交する方向に移動させて、撮像素子102とレンズ114との位置調整を行う。この後、図示省略のネジを基板100のコーナー部分及びシールド部材104の取付片104Pに貫通させてボス部112に螺合締結して、基板100及びシールド部材104をケース110内の一定位置に固定する。   That is, the substrate 100 and the shield member 104 are accommodated in the case 110 so that the corner portion of the substrate 100 and the attachment piece 104 </ b> P of the shield member 104 are overlapped on the boss portion 112. Then, the position of the image sensor 102 and the lens 114 is adjusted by moving the substrate 100 in a direction substantially orthogonal to the optical axis of the lens 114. Thereafter, screws (not shown) are passed through the corner portions of the substrate 100 and the attachment pieces 104P of the shield member 104 and screwed and fastened to the boss portion 112 to fix the substrate 100 and the shield member 104 at fixed positions in the case 110. To do.

しかしながら、上述したようなシールド部材104の取付構造では、基板100及びシールド部材104をケース110に取付固定する前の状態で、シールド部材104に対して撮像素子102が移動可能な状態となっている。このため、撮像素子102の位置調整を行う際等に、撮像素子102の上部にある撮像面102aや光学フィルタ103a,103bが開口部104hに当接してしまい、傷の付着や破損等を招いてしまう恐れがある。   However, in the mounting structure of the shield member 104 as described above, the image sensor 102 is movable with respect to the shield member 104 before the substrate 100 and the shield member 104 are fixed to the case 110. . For this reason, when the position of the image sensor 102 is adjusted, the image pickup surface 102a and the optical filters 103a and 103b above the image sensor 102 come into contact with the opening 104h, resulting in attachment or damage of scratches. There is a risk.

特に、小型化を図るため、シールド部材104の開口部104hを撮像素子102の上部近傍位置に設定すると、その恐れが生じ易い。   In particular, if the opening 104h of the shield member 104 is set at a position near the upper portion of the image sensor 102 in order to reduce the size, this is likely to occur.

そこで、本発明は、撮像素子とシールド部材との接触によって撮像素子が傷付いてしまったり、破損したりすることを防止することを目的とする。   Therefore, an object of the present invention is to prevent the image sensor from being damaged or damaged due to the contact between the image sensor and the shield member.

また、前記シールド部材は、少なくとも一つの前記位置決保持片が前記基板の周縁部に当接する部分に対して、前記基板の一方主面側部分及び他方主面側部分のうちの少なくとも一方側の部分で前記当接する部分よりも凹む形状に形成されていてもよい。   In addition, the shield member may be provided on at least one of the one main surface side portion and the other main surface side portion of the substrate with respect to a portion where the at least one positioning holding piece contacts the peripheral edge portion of the substrate. You may form in the shape dented rather than the part to contact | abut in the part.

さらに、前記位置決保持片のうち少なくとも一つは、前記基板が前記シールド本体部内へ移動するのを規制する位置規制段部を有していてもよい。   Furthermore, at least one of the positioning holding pieces may include a position regulation step that regulates the movement of the substrate into the shield main body.

また、前記開口部の周縁部は、外側に曲げられた曲げ片を有していてもよい。   Moreover, the peripheral part of the said opening part may have the bending piece bent outside.

また、この発明に係るシールド部材は、基板に固定された撮像素子を覆うと共に、前記撮像素子の撮像面を外部に臨ませる開口部を有するシールド本体部と、前記シールド本体部の周縁部より延設され、前記基板の外周縁部に当接して前記基板を前記撮像素子の撮像面の方向に沿って一定位置で保持する複数の位置決保持片とを備えたものである。 In addition, the shield member according to the present invention covers the image sensor fixed to the substrate and extends from the peripheral part of the shield main body having an opening that exposes the image pickup surface of the image sensor to the outside. And a plurality of positioning holding pieces that are in contact with the outer peripheral edge of the substrate and hold the substrate at a fixed position along the direction of the imaging surface of the imaging device .

また、この発明に係るカメラ装置は、基板と、撮像面を有し、前記基板の一方主面に固定された撮像素子と、前記撮像面を外部に臨ませる開口部を有し、その開口部を通じて前記撮像面を外部に臨ませた状態で前記撮像素子を覆うシールド部材と、外部光を前記撮像素子に向けて導く光学系と、前記光学系を保持するホルダ部を有し、前記撮像素子を前記光学系に対して所定の位置関係に配設した状態で、前記基板と前記撮像素子と前記シールド部材とを収容保持するケースと、を備え、前記シールド部材は、前記基板の一方主面側で前記撮像素子を覆ううつわ状に形成され、前記開口部が形成されたシールド本体部を備えると共に、前記シールド本体部の周縁部より延設され、前記基板の外周縁部に当接して前記基板を前記撮像素子の撮像面の方向に沿って一定位置で保持する複数の位置決保持片を有するものである。
The camera device according to the present invention includes a substrate, an imaging surface, an imaging element fixed to one main surface of the substrate, and an opening that faces the imaging surface to the outside. A shield member that covers the imaging element with the imaging surface facing outside, an optical system that guides external light toward the imaging element, and a holder portion that holds the optical system, and the imaging element And a case for accommodating and holding the substrate, the imaging device, and the shield member in a state of being arranged in a predetermined positional relationship with respect to the optical system, and the shield member is one main surface of the substrate A shield body formed on the side to cover the imaging device, and having the opening formed therein, extended from the peripheral edge of the shield main body, and in contact with the outer peripheral edge of the substrate Imaging the imaging device with the substrate Those having a plurality of positioning holding piece for holding in a fixed position along the direction.

さらに、この発明に係るカメラ装置の製造方法は、前記基板を前記基板保持手段で保持させるようにして、前記シールド部材に仮保持する工程と、前記基板及びそれに仮に保持された前記シールド部材を、前記ケース内に収容配置する工程と、前記撮像素子が前記ホルダに保持された前記光学系に対して前記所定の位置関係で配設されるように、前記基板を前記シールド部材と共に移動させて位置調整する工程と、前記位置調整された状態で、前記基板及び前記シールド部材を前記ケースに本固定する工程と、を備えたものである。   Furthermore, in the method of manufacturing a camera device according to the present invention, the substrate is held by the substrate holding means, and the step of temporarily holding the shield member, the substrate and the shield member temporarily held by the substrate, A step of accommodating and arranging in the case, and a position where the substrate is moved together with the shield member so that the imaging element is arranged in the predetermined positional relationship with respect to the optical system held by the holder. A step of adjusting, and a step of permanently fixing the substrate and the shield member to the case in the state where the position is adjusted.

この発明のシールド部材の取付部構造によると、シールド部材は、少なくとも前記撮像素子の撮像面の方向に沿って前記基板を一定位置で保持する基板保持手段を有しているため、基板及びそれに固定された撮像素子が、シールド部材に対して少なくとも撮像面の方向に沿って一定位置に保持される。従って、撮像素子が開口部の周縁部に当接し難くなり、撮像素子とシールド部材との接触によって、撮像素子が傷付いたり破損したりすることを有効に防止できる。   According to the shield member mounting portion structure of the present invention, since the shield member has the substrate holding means for holding the substrate at a fixed position along at least the direction of the imaging surface of the imaging device, the substrate is fixed to the substrate. The image pickup element thus held is held at a fixed position along at least the direction of the image pickup surface with respect to the shield member. Therefore, it becomes difficult for the image sensor to come into contact with the peripheral edge of the opening, and it is possible to effectively prevent the image sensor from being damaged or damaged due to the contact between the image sensor and the shield member.

また、前記シールド部材は、前記基板の一方主面側で前記撮像素子を覆ううつわ状のシールド本体部を備えると共に、前記基板保持手段として、前記シールド本体部の周縁部より延設され、前記基板の外周縁部に当接して前記基板を前記撮像素子の撮像面の方向に沿って一定位置で保持する複数の位置決保持片を有すると、基板の周縁部を位置決保持片に当接させることで、基板を撮像素子の撮像面の方向に沿って一定位置で保持できる。   The shield member includes a container-shaped shield main body that covers the imaging element on one main surface side of the substrate, and extends as a substrate holding means from a peripheral portion of the shield main body. If there are a plurality of positioning holding pieces that hold the substrate at a fixed position along the direction of the imaging surface of the imaging device by contacting the outer peripheral edge of the imaging device, the peripheral edge of the substrate is brought into contact with the positioning holding piece. Thereby, a board | substrate can be hold | maintained in a fixed position along the direction of the imaging surface of an image pick-up element.

さらに、前記シールド部材は、少なくとも一つの前記位置決保持片が前記基板の周縁部に当接する部分に対して、前記基板の一方主面側部分及び他方主面側部分のうちの少なくとも一方側の部分で前記当接する部分よりも凹む形状に形成されていると、基板に実装された部品とシールド部材との干渉を有効に防止できる。   Further, the shield member may be provided on at least one of the one main surface side portion and the other main surface side portion of the substrate with respect to a portion where the at least one positioning holding piece abuts on a peripheral edge portion of the substrate. If the portion is formed in a shape that is recessed from the abutting portion, interference between the component mounted on the substrate and the shield member can be effectively prevented.

また、前記位置決保持片のうち少なくとも一つは、前記基板が前記シールド本体部内へ移動するのを規制する位置規制段部を有すると、基板がシールド本体部内に入り込むのを規制して、シールド部材と基板とをより一定の姿勢に保つことができる。   Further, when at least one of the positioning holding pieces has a position regulation step that regulates the movement of the substrate into the shield main body, the substrate is prevented from entering the shield main body, and the shield The member and the substrate can be kept in a more constant posture.

前記開口部の周縁部は、外側に曲げられた曲げ片を有していると、前記開口部の周縁部をなだらかな曲面に仕上げることができる。従って、仮に撮像素子と開口部の周縁部とが当接しても、撮像素子が傷付いたり、破損したりすることをより有効に防止できる。   If the peripheral portion of the opening has a bent piece bent outward, the peripheral portion of the opening can be finished into a gently curved surface. Therefore, even if the image sensor and the peripheral edge of the opening are in contact with each other, it is possible to more effectively prevent the image sensor from being damaged or damaged.

この発明のシールド部材によると、シールド部材は、少なくとも前記撮像素子の撮像面の方向に沿って前記基板を一定位置で保持する基板保持手段を有しているため、基板及びそれに固定された撮像素子が、シールド部材に対して少なくとも撮像面の方向に沿って一定位置に保持される。従って、撮像素子が開口部の周縁部に当接し難くなり、撮像素子とシールド部材との接触によって、撮像素子が傷付いたり、破損したりすることを有効に防止できる。   According to the shield member of the present invention, since the shield member has substrate holding means for holding the substrate at a fixed position along at least the direction of the imaging surface of the image sensor, the substrate and the image sensor fixed thereto Is held at a certain position along at least the direction of the imaging surface with respect to the shield member. Therefore, it becomes difficult for the image sensor to come into contact with the peripheral edge of the opening, and it is possible to effectively prevent the image sensor from being damaged or damaged due to the contact between the image sensor and the shield member.

また、この発明のカメラ装置によると、シールド部材は、少なくとも前記撮像素子の撮像面の方向に沿って前記基板を一定位置で保持する基板保持手段を有しているため、例えば、撮像素子を光学系に対して所定の位置関係に配設されるように、撮像素子の位置を調整する場合でも、基板及びそれに固定された撮像素子が、シールド部材に対して少なくとも撮像面の方向に沿って一定位置に保持される。従って、撮像素子とシールド部材との接触によって、撮像素子に傷の付着や破損を生じることを有効に防止できる。   Further, according to the camera device of the present invention, the shield member has the substrate holding means for holding the substrate at a fixed position along at least the direction of the imaging surface of the imaging element. Even when the position of the image sensor is adjusted so as to be arranged in a predetermined positional relationship with respect to the system, the substrate and the image sensor fixed thereto are constant along the direction of the image sensing surface at least with respect to the shield member Held in position. Therefore, it is possible to effectively prevent the image sensor from being damaged or damaged due to the contact between the image sensor and the shield member.

また、この発明に係るカメラ装置の製造方法によると、前記基板を前記基板保持手段で保持させるようにして、前記シールド部材に仮保持する工程と、前記基板及びそれに仮に保持された前記シールド部材を、前記ケース内に収容配置する工程と、前記撮像素子が前記ホルダに保持された前記光学系に対して前記所定の位置関係で配設されるように、前記基板を前記シールド部材と共に移動させて位置調整する工程と、前記位置調整された状態で、前記基板及び前記シールド部材を前記ケースに本固定する工程とを備えているため、撮像素子が開口部の周縁部に当接し難くなり、撮像素子とシールド部材との接触によって、撮像素子が傷付いたり、破損したりすることを有効に防止できる。   Further, according to the manufacturing method of the camera device according to the present invention, the step of temporarily holding the substrate by the substrate holding means so that the substrate is held by the substrate holding means, the substrate and the shield member temporarily held by the substrate, And moving the substrate together with the shield member so that the imaging device is disposed in the predetermined positional relationship with respect to the optical system held by the holder. Since the method includes the step of adjusting the position and the step of permanently fixing the substrate and the shield member to the case in the position-adjusted state, the imaging element is less likely to contact the peripheral edge of the opening, and imaging The contact between the element and the shield member can effectively prevent the imaging element from being damaged or damaged.

シールド部材30についてより詳細に説明する。図3はシールド部材を示す底面図であり、図4はシールド部材を一側面方向(図3の上方向から)から見た側面図であり、図5はシールド部材を他の側面方向(図3の右方向)から見た側面図であり、図6は図3のVI−VI線断面図であり、図7は図3のVII−VII線断面図である。   The shield member 30 will be described in more detail. 3 is a bottom view showing the shield member, FIG. 4 is a side view of the shield member viewed from one side surface direction (from the upper direction in FIG. 3), and FIG. 5 is a side view in the other side surface direction (FIG. 3). 6 is a sectional view taken along line VI-VI in FIG. 3, and FIG. 7 is a sectional view taken along line VII-VII in FIG.

図1〜図7に示すように、シールド部材30は、導電性部材により形成されている。ここでは、SUS合金等の導電性板材をプレス加工等することで形成されている。   As shown in FIGS. 1-7, the shield member 30 is formed of a conductive member. Here, it is formed by pressing a conductive plate material such as SUS alloy.

シールド部材30は、シールド本体部32と、位置決保持片36,37,38,39とを備えている。   The shield member 30 includes a shield body portion 32 and positioning holding pieces 36, 37, 38, 39.

シールド本体部32は、主基板12の一方主面側で撮像素子20を覆ううつわ状に形成されている。ここでは、シールド本体部32は、一方が開口する略直方体筺状に形成されている。そして、シールド本体部32の開口部分に該開口部を閉塞するように主基板12が配設されて、シールド本体部32内に撮像素子20が収容されるようになっている。   The shield main body 32 is formed in a bowl shape that covers the image pickup device 20 on one main surface side of the main substrate 12. Here, the shield main body 32 is formed in a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape with one opening. The main substrate 12 is disposed at the opening of the shield main body 32 so as to close the opening, and the image sensor 20 is accommodated in the shield main body 32.

より具体的には、シールド本体部32は、略方形状の主板32aと、この主板32aの4辺それぞれに該主板32aに対して略垂直に延びる側板32bとを有している。   More specifically, the shield body 32 includes a substantially rectangular main plate 32a and side plates 32b extending substantially perpendicular to the main plate 32a on each of the four sides of the main plate 32a.

主板32aには、撮像面21に対応する開口部32hが形成されている。この開口部32hは、撮像素子20の上部にある光学フィルタ22を収容可能な大きさ及び形状に形成されている。   An opening 32h corresponding to the imaging surface 21 is formed in the main plate 32a. The opening 32 h is formed in a size and shape that can accommodate the optical filter 22 on the top of the image sensor 20.

また、主板32aにおける開口部32hの周縁4辺から外方に曲げるようにして曲げ片32hpが延設されている。これにより、開口部32hの周縁部が曲げ片32hpの曲げ部分外周側の曲面で構成されるように構成されている。   Further, a bent piece 32hp is extended so as to be bent outward from the four peripheral edges of the opening 32h in the main plate 32a. Thereby, it is comprised so that the peripheral part of the opening part 32h may be comprised by the curved surface of the bending part outer periphery side of the bending piece 32hp.

また、各側板32bは、主板32aの各辺よりも幅狭に形成されている。シールド本体部32において対向する2つのコーナー部分では、隣合う側板32b同士が斜板32cを介して連結されている。   Each side plate 32b is formed narrower than each side of the main plate 32a. In the two corner portions facing each other in the shield main body 32, adjacent side plates 32b are connected to each other via a swash plate 32c.

また、シールド本体部32において対向する他の2つのコーナー部分には、2つの取付片33が設けられている。各取付片33は、各側板32bの側辺から延びる支持片により主板32aから所定距離離れた位置で該主板32aと略平行姿勢でシールド本体部32内に延出するように配設されている。そして、シールド本体部32の後側開口部に、主基板12が配設された状態で、各取付片33及び後述する位置規制段部37aが主基板12の一方主面に当接し、主基板12を開口部32h後方の一定位置に保つようになっている。また、この状態では、撮像素子20の上部である光学フィルタ22の前面部分周縁部を囲む位置に開口部32hが配設されるようになっている。これにより、シールド本体部32の高さ寸法を、撮像素子20の高さ寸法に合わせて最小限度の大きさに設定することができ、シールド部材30の小型化、ひいてはカメラ装置自体の小型化に貢献する。   In addition, two attachment pieces 33 are provided at the other two corner portions facing each other in the shield main body 32. Each attachment piece 33 is disposed so as to extend into the shield main body 32 in a posture substantially parallel to the main plate 32a at a position away from the main plate 32a by a support piece extending from the side of each side plate 32b. . Then, in a state where the main board 12 is disposed in the rear opening of the shield main body 32, each mounting piece 33 and a position regulating step part 37a to be described later abut against one main surface of the main board 12, and the main board 12 is maintained at a fixed position behind the opening 32h. In this state, the opening 32 h is disposed at a position surrounding the peripheral edge of the front surface portion of the optical filter 22, which is the upper part of the image sensor 20. Thereby, the height dimension of the shield main body 32 can be set to the minimum size according to the height dimension of the image pickup device 20, and the shield member 30 can be reduced in size, and hence the camera device itself can be reduced in size. To contribute.

また、各取付片33には、ネジ挿通孔33hが形成されている。そして、主基板12のネジ挿通孔12hと本ネジ挿通孔33hとを重ね合せるように配設した状態で、主基板12のコーナー部分と取付片33とが、ボス部54a上に重合状に配設されるようになっている。   Each attachment piece 33 is formed with a screw insertion hole 33h. Then, in a state where the screw insertion hole 12h of the main board 12 and the main screw insertion hole 33h are arranged so as to overlap each other, the corner portion of the main board 12 and the mounting piece 33 are arranged in a superposed manner on the boss portion 54a. It is set up.

位置決保持片36,37,38,39は、少なくとも撮像素子20の撮像面21の方向に沿って主基板12を一定位置で保持する基板保持手段として機能する部材である。   The positioning holding pieces 36, 37, 38, 39 are members that function as substrate holding means for holding the main substrate 12 at a fixed position along at least the direction of the imaging surface 21 of the imaging device 20.

各位置決保持片36,37,38,39は、シールド本体部32の周縁部である各側板32bから後方に延設される板状部材である。各位置決保持片36,37,38,39は、主基板12の外周縁部に当接して、主基板12を撮像面21の方向に沿って一定位置で保持するように構成されている。   Each positioning holding piece 36, 37, 38, 39 is a plate-like member that extends rearward from each side plate 32 b that is a peripheral portion of the shield main body 32. Each positioning holding piece 36, 37, 38, 39 is configured to contact the outer peripheral edge of the main substrate 12 and hold the main substrate 12 at a fixed position along the direction of the imaging surface 21.

ここでは、対向する位置決保持片36,38の基端側部分(即ち、各取付片33の後側部分)間と、対向する位置決保持片37,39の基端側部分(即ち、各取付片33の後側部分)間とが、それぞれ主基板12の縦寸法又は横寸法と略同一間隔寸法に形成されている。そして、主基板12の一方主面を取付片33に当接させるように配設した状態で、主基板12の周囲四辺が各位置決保持片36,37,38,39の基端側部分内面に当接して、その主基板12の一方主面方向への移動を規制するようになっている。   Here, between the base end side parts (that is, the rear part of each mounting piece 33) of the opposing positioning holding pieces 36 and 38, and the base end side parts (that is, each of the positioning positioning pieces 37 and 39 facing each other) The space between the rear portions of the mounting pieces 33 is formed to have substantially the same distance as the vertical dimension or horizontal dimension of the main board 12. Then, in a state where one main surface of the main substrate 12 is disposed so as to contact the mounting piece 33, the four sides around the main substrate 12 are the inner surfaces of the base end side portions of the positioning holding pieces 36, 37, 38, 39. The main substrate 12 is restricted from moving in the direction of one main surface.

また、このシールド部材30では、2つの対向する位置決保持片36,38が主基板12に当接する部分36a,38aに対して、主基板12の一方主面側の部分36b,38bで、前記当接する部分36a,38aよりも凹む形状に形成されている(図6参照)。これにより、シールド部材30の内部で、主基板12の一方主面側の空間が前記凹み形状分広がり、主基板12に実装された諸電子部品が、シールド部材30の側板32bに干渉するのを防止するようにしている。   Further, in this shield member 30, the portions 36a and 38a where the two opposing positioning holding pieces 36 and 38 abut against the main substrate 12 are compared with the portions 36b and 38b on the one main surface side of the main substrate 12, respectively. It is formed in a shape that is recessed from the abutting portions 36a, 38a (see FIG. 6). As a result, the space on the one main surface side of the main board 12 is expanded by the concave shape inside the shield member 30, and various electronic components mounted on the main board 12 interfere with the side plate 32 b of the shield member 30. I try to prevent it.

なお、本シールド部材30では、2つの位置決保持片36,38に関して上記凹み形状を形成したが、位置決保持片36,37,38,39のうち少なくとも一つに関して上記凹み形状を形成するようにしてもよい。また、上記当接する部分36a,38aよりも主基板12の他方主面側の部分が上記凹み形状に形成されていてもよい。   In the shield member 30, the concave shape is formed with respect to the two positioning holding pieces 36, 38. However, the concave shape is formed with respect to at least one of the positioning holding pieces 36, 37, 38, 39. It may be. Further, the portion on the other main surface side of the main substrate 12 relative to the abutting portions 36a, 38a may be formed in the concave shape.

さらに、位置決保持片37は、主基板12がシールド本体部32内に移動するのを規制する位置規制段部37aを有している(図7参照)。より具体的には、位置決保持片37は、段違い状にその基端側の側板32bよりも外方に広がっており、位置決保持片37と側板32bとの間に位置規制段部37aが形成されている。位置規制段部37aは、シールド部材30の後方に面する受面37bを有しており、この受面37bは、取付片33の受面と略同一平面上に配設されている。そして、各取付片33と位置規制段部37aとが、主基板12の一方主面周縁部に当接して、主基板12がシールド本体部32内に移動するのを規制するようになっている。   Furthermore, the positioning holding piece 37 has a position restricting step 37a that restricts the main substrate 12 from moving into the shield body 32 (see FIG. 7). More specifically, the positioning holding piece 37 spreads outward from the side plate 32b on the base end side in a stepped manner, and a position regulating step 37a is provided between the positioning holding piece 37 and the side plate 32b. Is formed. The position restricting step portion 37 a has a receiving surface 37 b facing the back of the shield member 30, and the receiving surface 37 b is disposed on substantially the same plane as the receiving surface of the mounting piece 33. Each mounting piece 33 and the position restricting step 37a abut against the peripheral portion of one main surface of the main substrate 12 to restrict the main substrate 12 from moving into the shield main body 32. .

なお、位置規制段部37aは、線状に延びる突部により構成されていてもよく、また、他の位置決保持片36,38,39に形成されていてもよい。   The position restricting step portion 37a may be configured by a linearly extending protrusion, or may be formed on other position determination holding pieces 36, 38, 39.

また、各位置決保持片36,37,38,39の先端部は、外方に拡開するように曲げられている。これにより、主基板12を各位置決保持片36,37,38,39間に容易に配設できるようになっている。   Moreover, the front-end | tip part of each positioning holding piece 36, 37, 38, 39 is bent so that it may spread outward. As a result, the main board 12 can be easily disposed between the positioning holding pieces 36, 37, 38, 39.

このように構成されたカメラ装置の製造方法について説明する。   A method of manufacturing the camera device configured as described above will be described.

まず、図8に示すように、前側ケース54,シールド部材30及び基板ユニット10を準備する。   First, as shown in FIG. 8, the front case 54, the shield member 30, and the board unit 10 are prepared.

そして、図9に示すように、主基板12の一方主面を各取付片33と位置規制段部37aに当接させると共に、主基板12の周囲4辺を各位置決保持片36,37,38,39の基端部内面に当接させるようにして、撮像素子20をシールド部材30のシールド本体部32内に収容する。これにより、主基板12が撮像面21の方向に関して一定位置に保持されると共に、主基板12がシールド本体部32内に移動するのを規制された状態で、基板ユニット10がシールド部材30に仮保持される。なお、この状態で、撮像面21や光学フィルタ22に対する傷の有無等を目視で確認できる。   As shown in FIG. 9, one main surface of the main board 12 is brought into contact with each mounting piece 33 and the position restricting step portion 37 a, and the four sides around the main board 12 are set to the positioning holding pieces 36, 37, The image pickup device 20 is accommodated in the shield main body 32 of the shield member 30 so as to be in contact with the inner surfaces of the base end portions of 38 and 39. Thus, the substrate unit 10 is temporarily attached to the shield member 30 in a state where the main substrate 12 is held at a fixed position with respect to the direction of the imaging surface 21 and the main substrate 12 is restricted from moving into the shield main body 32. Retained. In this state, the presence or absence of scratches on the imaging surface 21 and the optical filter 22 can be visually confirmed.

この際、位置決保持片36,37,38,39が主基板12の周囲4辺に当接するため、シールド部材30に対して撮像素子20が撮像面21の方向において一定の位置関係に配設される。従って、撮像素子20の上部にある撮像面21や光学フィルタ22が正確に開口部32hの対応領域に配設され、撮像面21や光学フィルタ22が開口部32hの周縁部に当接し難い。また、開口部32hの周縁部には曲げ片32hpが形成されているため、仮に撮像面21や光学フィルタ22が開口部32hの周縁部に当接しても、曲げ片32hpによる湾曲面に当接することになり、撮像面21や光学フィルタ22が傷付き難い。   At this time, since the positioning holding pieces 36, 37, 38, 39 are in contact with the four sides around the main substrate 12, the imaging element 20 is disposed in a fixed positional relationship in the direction of the imaging surface 21 with respect to the shield member 30. Is done. Accordingly, the image pickup surface 21 and the optical filter 22 at the upper part of the image pickup device 20 are accurately disposed in the corresponding region of the opening 32h, and the image pickup surface 21 and the optical filter 22 are unlikely to contact the peripheral edge of the opening 32h. In addition, since the bent piece 32hp is formed at the peripheral portion of the opening 32h, even if the imaging surface 21 and the optical filter 22 are in contact with the peripheral portion of the opening 32h, they are in contact with the curved surface of the bent piece 32hp. As a result, the imaging surface 21 and the optical filter 22 are hardly damaged.

次に、図10に示すように、2つの取付片33及び主基板12の2つのコーナー部分をそれぞれボス部54a上に重ね合せるようにして、シールド部材30及び基板ユニット10を前側ケース54の収容凹部内に収容配置する。そして、基板ユニット10を撮像面21の方向に沿って移動させて、撮像素子20が光学系40に対して所定の位置関係で配設されるように、位置調整を行う。なお、これより前の工程で、光学系40はホルダ部55内に固定されている。   Next, as shown in FIG. 10, the shield member 30 and the board unit 10 are accommodated in the front case 54 such that the two mounting pieces 33 and the two corner parts of the main board 12 are superimposed on the boss part 54a. It is accommodated in the recess. Then, the substrate unit 10 is moved along the direction of the imaging surface 21, and the position adjustment is performed so that the imaging element 20 is disposed in a predetermined positional relationship with respect to the optical system 40. Note that the optical system 40 is fixed in the holder portion 55 in the previous step.

上記位置調整を行う際、シールド部材30に対して主基板12が撮像面21の方向において一定の位置で保持されているため、シールド部材30も基板ユニット10と共に移動する。このため、撮像素子20の上部にある撮像面21や光学フィルタ22と開口部32hとの相対的な位置関係がずれ難く、撮像面21や光学フィルタ22が開口部32hに当接し難い。   When performing the position adjustment, the main board 12 is held at a fixed position in the direction of the imaging surface 21 with respect to the shield member 30, so that the shield member 30 also moves with the board unit 10. For this reason, the relative positional relationship between the imaging surface 21 and the optical filter 22 at the upper part of the imaging device 20 and the opening 32h is difficult to shift, and the imaging surface 21 and the optical filter 22 are unlikely to contact the opening 32h.

そして、上記位置調整を行った後、図11に示すように、ネジS2を、主基板12のネジ挿通孔12h及び各取付片33のネジ挿通孔33hに挿通させて、ボス部54aにネジ孔に螺合締結する。これにより、基板ユニット10及びシールド部材30が前側ケース54に取付固定される。   And after performing the said position adjustment, as shown in FIG. 11, the screw S2 is penetrated to the screw penetration hole 12h of the main board 12, and the screw penetration hole 33h of each attachment piece 33, and a screw hole is made to the boss | hub part 54a. Fastened with screws. As a result, the board unit 10 and the shield member 30 are attached and fixed to the front case 54.

この後、ネジS1により、前側ケース54と後側ケース52とが合体固定される。これにより、カメラ装置の製造が完了する。   Thereafter, the front case 54 and the rear case 52 are combined and fixed by the screw S1. Thereby, manufacture of a camera apparatus is completed.

以上のように構成されたカメラ装置によると、シールド部材30は、少なくとも撮像素子20の撮像面21の方向に沿って主基板12を一定位置で保持する基板保持手段としての位置決保持片36,37,38,39を有しているため、主基板12及びそれに固定された撮像素子20が、シールド部材30に対して少なくとも撮像面21の方向に沿って一定位置に保持される。従って、撮像素子20をシールド部材30に組付ける際や撮像素子20の位置調整を行う際等に、撮像素子20が開口部32hの周縁部に当接し難くなる。これにより、撮像素子20とシールド部材30との接触によって、撮像素子20、特に、撮像素子20上部の撮像面21や光学フィルタ22が傷付いたり破損したりすることを有効に防止できる。   According to the camera device configured as described above, the shield member 30 includes the positioning holding piece 36 as substrate holding means for holding the main substrate 12 at a fixed position along at least the direction of the imaging surface 21 of the imaging device 20. 37, 38, and 39, the main substrate 12 and the image sensor 20 fixed thereto are held at a fixed position with respect to the shield member 30 at least along the direction of the imaging surface 21. Therefore, when the image sensor 20 is assembled to the shield member 30 or when the position of the image sensor 20 is adjusted, the image sensor 20 is less likely to contact the peripheral edge of the opening 32h. Thereby, it is possible to effectively prevent the imaging element 20, in particular, the imaging surface 21 and the optical filter 22 above the imaging element 20 from being damaged or damaged due to the contact between the imaging element 20 and the shield member 30.

なお、本実施形態では、4つの位置決保持片36,37,38,39を、略方形状の主基板12の周囲4方に当接させて該主基板12の位置決めを図る構成としたが、必ずしもその必要はない。例えば、断面略L字状の位置決保持片を、基板12のうちの対向するコーナー部に当接させて、該基板12の位置決めを図るようにしてもよい。   In this embodiment, the four positioning holding pieces 36, 37, 38, 39 are brought into contact with the four sides around the substantially rectangular main substrate 12 to position the main substrate 12. This is not always necessary. For example, a positioning holding piece having a substantially L-shaped cross section may be brought into contact with an opposing corner portion of the substrate 12 so as to position the substrate 12.

また、シールド部材30は、位置決保持片36,38が主基板12の周縁部に当接する部分36a,38aに対して、主基板12の一方主面側部分で前記当接する部分36a,38aよりも凹む形状部分36b,38bに形成されているため、主基板12に実装された部品とシールド部材30との干渉を有効に防止できる。   Further, the shield member 30 has a portion 36a, 38a where the positioning holding pieces 36, 38 abut against the peripheral edge portion of the main substrate 12, and a portion 36a, 38a that abuts on the one main surface side portion of the main substrate 12. Further, since the concave portions 36 b and 38 b are formed, the interference between the components mounted on the main board 12 and the shield member 30 can be effectively prevented.

さらに、位置決保持片37は、主基板12がシールド本体部32内へ移動するのを規制する位置規制段部37aを有しているため、主基板12がシールド本体部32内に入り込むのを有効に規制して、シールド部材30と主基板12とをより一定の位置関係に保つことができる。   Further, since the positioning holding piece 37 has a position regulation step portion 37a for restricting the main board 12 from moving into the shield main body 32, the main board 12 is prevented from entering the shield main body 32. By effectively regulating, the shield member 30 and the main board 12 can be kept in a more fixed positional relationship.

特に、本実施形態では、主基板12の2つのコーナー部を支えるべく2つの取付片33を設けているところ、2つの取付片33で主基板12を2点支持しただけの構成では、主基板12が斜めに傾いてしまう恐れがある。そこで、上記位置規制段部37aによる支持をもあわせて、少なくとも3箇所で支持することで、主基板12を安定して支持できる。   In particular, in this embodiment, two mounting pieces 33 are provided to support the two corner portions of the main board 12. However, in the configuration in which the main board 12 is supported at two points by the two mounting pieces 33, the main board is used. There is a possibility that 12 is inclined obliquely. Therefore, the main substrate 12 can be stably supported by supporting at least three locations together with the support by the position regulation step portion 37a.

さらに、開口部32hの周縁部は、外側に曲げられた曲げ片32hpを有しているため、開口部32hの周縁部を曲げ片32hpの湾曲面によって構成できる。従って、仮に、仮に撮像素子20の上部にある撮像面21や光学フィルタ22が開口部32hの周縁部に当接しても、それらが傷付いたり、破損したりすることをより有効に防止できる。   Furthermore, since the peripheral part of the opening part 32h has the bending piece 32hp bent outward, the peripheral part of the opening part 32h can be comprised by the curved surface of the bending piece 32hp. Therefore, even if the image pickup surface 21 and the optical filter 22 on the upper part of the image pickup device 20 come into contact with the peripheral edge portion of the opening 32h, they can be more effectively prevented from being damaged or damaged.

また、この曲げ片32hpは、開口部32hの周縁部から外側に延出しているため、撮像面21上方の領域四方を導電性部材で覆うことができ、より優れたシールド性能を得ることができる。   Moreover, since this bending piece 32hp is extended outside from the peripheral part of the opening part 32h, the area | region four directions above the imaging surface 21 can be covered with a conductive member, and more excellent shielding performance can be obtained. .
