以下、図1~7を参照して、本発明の実施形態について説明すると以下のとおりである。図2は、本発明の一実施形態(第1実施形態)に係るレンズ駆動装置の斜視図である。図3は、レンズ駆動装置の分解斜視図である。
まず、図2を用いて、レンズ駆動装置の外観および概略的構成について説明する。図2に示すとおり、レンズ駆動装置1は、レンズバレル2を光軸L方向に移動させるためのものである。レンズ駆動装置1は、例示的には、駆動源(駆動方法)として、ボイス・コイル・モータ(VCM)を使用したVCM方式のレンズ駆動装置である。レンズ駆動装置1が、センサ基板(図示せず)、および、撮像素子(図示せず)と組み合わされることによって、カメラモジュールが構成される。このようなカメラモジュールは、例えば、携帯電話機や、タブレット型PC(Personal Computer)などの電子機器に搭載される。
次に、図3を用いて、レンズ駆動装置1の内部機構および詳細構成について説明する。図3に示すとおり、レンズ駆動装置1のヨーク3には、上方から下方にかけて、スペーサ4、上側板バネ5、可動レンズユニット12、および下側板バネ9が、順に組み立てられた状態で収納される。なお、以下では、上側板バネ5および下側板バネ9を区別せずに総称する際には、“一対の板バネ5、9”と称する。
図4に示すように、下側板バネ9は2つのパーツ91および92から構成される。まず、パーツ91および92の間で共通の構成について、パーツ91を中心に説明する。なお、括弧書きの符号はパーツ92の対応する部材番号を示す。
2つの端子10は、それぞれ、ベース11の所定位置に固定される。図5に示すように、2つの端子10は、それぞれ、板バネ接続部10aと基板接続部10bとからなり、板バネ接続部10aと基板接続部10bとは、略垂直に接続される。
図6に示すように、ベース11は、概略的には、下側板バネ9を固定するための4つの板バネ固定部11aと、端子10が挿入される2つの端子挿入孔11cと、端子10を設置するための2つの端子固定部11dと、を備える。また、それぞれの板バネ固定部11aには、ボス11bが設けられる。
端子10は、図7に示すように、ベース11に設けた端子挿入孔11cに基板接続部10bを挿入し、さらに、板バネ接続部10aをベース11の端子固定部11dの上面に当てることで位置決めされる。
下側板バネ9のベース11への固定は、図1に示すように、パーツ91(92)の位置決め穴911a(921a)をベース11の第1基部111(第2基部112)が有する板バネ固定部11aに設けられているボス11bに合わせ、ボス11bを溶着することによって行われる。
下側板バネ9の形状は、以上で説明した形状に限られない。端子10のベース11における設置位置に応じて、パーツ91における端子接続部911bおよびパーツ92における端子接続部921bの位置を任意に設定することができる。
