The present invention relates to a camera lens opening and closing device mounted on a mobile communication terminal, such as a camera phone, and more particularly, the lens surface by opening and closing the camera lens by translating the slider by the interaction of the electromagnetic force and rotating the blade associated with it It relates to a camera lens opening and closing device for a mobile communication terminal to prevent the adhesion of foreign substances.

Recently, with the development of digital camera manufacturing technology, a miniaturized and lightweight camera lens assembly has emerged. Accordingly, the camera can be mounted in a mobile communication terminal.

In the early days, cameras mounted on mobile communication terminals had significantly lower performance than general digital cameras. For example, when the performance of a general digital camera is mainstream of 4 million pixels, the camera mounted on the mobile communication terminal is 300,000 pixels, which is not very effective.

However, with the recent rapid development of digital camera manufacturing technology, the number of digital cameras mounted on mobile communication terminals has increased dramatically, resulting in clearer images.

However, unlike a general digital camera, a mobile communication terminal is not stored in a case, but is stored in a pants bag or a portable bag that is easy to carry, and thus foreign matters such as dust adhere to the lens surface and come into contact with other materials. This causes scratches on the surface of the lens.
