Abstract

A lens displacement mechanism using shape memory alloy is suitable for using in automatic focusing lens module. The lens module at least includes an accommodation housing; a lens set that consists of a lens group and a lens holder and is fitted into the accommodation housing and is capable of moving toward or away from the object in sliding manner so as to perform the automatic focusing; a lens displacement mechanism, which includes at least a shape memory alloy wire (SMA) that has the characteristics of expanding in cold and contracting in hot. The length of the shape memory alloy wire can be controlled by using electric current so as to drive the lens set to make displacement. The features are: the shape memory alloy wire has two opposite ends and an intermediate movable portion between the two opposite ends. The two opposite ends are fixed, and the lenhth near to the central portion of the intermediate movable portion is tightened and suspended on a corresponding hook on the outer perimeter of the lens holder so that the intermediate movable portion is at a tightened state with respect to the two ends. When the SMA is heated, it will contract and drag the corresponding hook so as to drive the lens set to move and displace on the optical axis for achieving the automatic focusing effect. Furthermore a restoring spring element is equipped on the lens holder so that when the SMA is cooled down and contracts to its original length, the restoring spring element will provide restoration force for restoring the lens to its original position. A fitting sliding rail may also be correspondingly equipped inside the accommodation housing to make the lens set move and displace stably and smoothly inside the accommodation housing.

The shape is formed by a shape memoir alloy (abbreviated as -), which uses an SMA device (SMA device).

At present, there are many conventional techniques for utilizing SMA in the design field of lens shifting mechanisms such as: US5,185,621 A, US5, 279, 123A, US5, 459, 544A, US 6, 307, 678B2, US 6, 449, 434B1, W02005001540, US20020136548 ' US2007058070 > US2007047938 > JP64000938, JP9127398, JP62067738, JP3196781, JP2006329111, JP200527527 0, JP2005195998, JP2005156892, JP2004184775, JP2004129950, JP2004069986, JP2004038058, JP2000056208, etc., while the above patents all use SMA as the driving force for lens shift, but the technical means or driving methods are different; However, most of the above-mentioned conventional techniques are still relatively complicated in structure and relatively large in size, and do not meet the miniaturization requirements of the lens module. For example, US 6,449,434 B1 uses an SMA wire to fix the opposite ends thereof. And the length of the intermediate movable section between the opposite ends is pulled to the outer edge of the pivotable actuator to the intermediate point (longitudinal mid-point;) The driving point is driven, and a corresponding convex tip is disposed on the outer edge of the brake and is clamped into the outer edge of a lens holder to be a stress point in the slot of the 200916872, so that the SMA line is hot.

In addition, the structure and movement mode of the lens shifting (control) mechanism are too complicated and not simplified, and the design requirements for miniaturization and cost reduction of the lens module are relatively unfavorable for mass production, so there is still room for further improvement. [Disclosed] The main object of the present invention is to provide an iens displacement mechanism using shape memory al loy for an auto-focusing lens module. ), which uses a shape memory alloy wire (SMA wire) to fix the opposite ends of the SMA wire (0pp0Site ends) and to make an intermediate movable section between the opposite ends of the SMA wire. The length of the intermediate movable portion is pulled to the intermediate point (i〇ngitudinal mid-point) and hung on one of the corresponding hook members on the outer edge of the lens holder. The opposite end forms a tension state; 200916872, the above structure, when the SMA wire is heated by the current conduction, the intermediate activity = can be contracted to take the corresponding hook member, thereby driving the lens to shift on the optical axis to achieve an autofocus effect.

SMA線1〇之間的一側邊上,以使鏡頭21可藉該組導執裝置 200916872 26而在容腔20内穩定地滑動移位。 又本實施例亦可在鏡頭21與容腔20之間設置二組導軌 裝置26,該二組導軌裝置26可配合二條SMA線10而以對稱 方式設置或以鄰接方式設置;以鏡頭21之外周緣所形成的 圓形當作一 X-Y面並分成四個象限為例說明,當以對稱方 式設置時,該二條SMA線10係分別設於第一、三象限而二 組導軌裝置26分別設於第二、四象限。當以鄰接方式設置 時,二條SMA線10條分別設於第一、二象限而二組導軌裝 置26分別設於第三、四象限,也就是,若以圊4-6所示方 形體之四侧邊為例說明,該二條之SMA線10係佈設在鏡頭 外周緣相鄰之二侧邊處,並使各SMA線10之二相對端固定 住,而各中間活動段則分別拉緊懸掛在鏡頭外緣上一對應 鉤件上,而二組導軌裝置26則設置於二條SMA線1〇之對面 側邊處。 而設置一組或二組導軌裝置26之主要目的係使鏡頭21 可藉該導軌裝置26而在容腔20内穩定地滑動移位。一般而 言’第二實施例中設有二條SMA線10,致其收縮牵引力的 作用效果比第一實施例只設一條SMA線10為佳。 <第三實施例> 參考圖7-9所示,本實施例係利用四條SMA線1〇 ’該 四條SMA線10係以環周緣對稱或等間距佈設在鏡頭21之外 周緣處為佳,也就是四條SMA線10之各二相對端11係分別
