(Example 7)

The camera device for a mobile device of Embodiment 1 can be modified to be suitable for photographing the state of the inside of the mouth or the inside of the ear.

7 is a conceptual diagram of Embodiment 7 of the present invention.

The camera device 800 for a mobile device of Example 7 is divided into a body 810, a micro USB terminal 850, and a connection line 860.

The body 810 of the camera device for a mobile device is divided into a handle part 811, a camera module part 880, and a handle connection part 812.

The handle part 811 is a part which is held by a hand of the body part, the camera module part 880 is a part where the camera module is installed among the body parts, and the handle connection part 812 is a part which connects the handle part and the camera module part.

In FIG. 7, the handle connecting portion 812 is thinner than the handle 811, so that when the handle connecting portion 812 moves in the mouth, the possibility of hitting the teeth or the tongue in the mouth and the like is reduced.

In addition, the camera module 880 is formed to face in a direction that is not the same as the lengthwise direction of the handle, that is, the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction or the oblique direction, so that it is more convenient to photograph the teeth in the mouth than the lengthwise direction. You can do that.

8 is a perspective view of the camera module of the seventh embodiment of the present invention.

A lens 882 of the camera module is formed at the center of the camera module unit 880, and four LEDs 883 are formed while forming a circle around the camera module 880. Therefore, the four LEDs 883 illuminate the object so that there is no dark part when the camera module photographs the object. If the number of LEDs is two or more, it helps to eliminate dark areas on the photographing object, and the number of LEDs need not be limited to four. In other words, if there are two or more LEDs and a camera module is installed at the center, it helps to eliminate the dark part of the LED light. In addition, other lighting devices other than LEDs may be used.

In addition, the camera module unit 880 may be provided with a body temperature measuring unit 884 and a pulse measuring unit 885.

The body temperature measuring unit 884 may be a temperature sensor (eg, an NTC temperature sensor) using a material whose resistance value changes with temperature, or may be an infrared temperature sensor using infrared light. In the case of an infrared temperature sensor, a light emitting part and a light receiving part may be required. The body temperature measuring unit 884 may use a temperature sensor other than the above-described temperature sensor.

The pulse measuring unit 885 may use a PPG sensor.

The PPG sensor includes a light emitting unit and a light receiving unit, and measures the pulse by using the amount of light entering the light receiving unit according to the pulse when light of the light emitting unit is incident on the blood vessel.

The PPG sensor has a reflection type and a transmission type, but in Example 7, the PPG sensor is preferably a reflection type.

The reason why the body temperature measuring unit 884 and the pulse measuring unit 885 are installed in the camera module unit 880 is to check the state of health of the object photographed by the camera module. For example, if you are photographing your ear by the camera module, you can determine whether you have an ear infection or a cold by checking your body temperature or pulse rate.

In the camera device for a mobile device of the seventh embodiment, it is preferable to have a configuration that prevents water from entering the body portion.

9 is an exploded view of a seventh embodiment of the present invention.

Body portion 810 is composed of a body portion 1 (810A) and a body portion 2 (810B). The camera module unit 880 may be made in a combined state of the body part 1 810A or the body part 2 810B, but may be made in a separated form as shown in FIG. 9. A separate cover part (not shown) may be made to prevent water from entering the camera module part 880. The cover part prevents water from entering the camera module, the LED, etc., but is preferably formed of a transparent material so as not to interfere with the operation of the camera module and the LED.

Coupling protrusion 810A1 of body portion 1 is formed in body portion 1 810A, and coupling protrusion 810B1 of body portion 2 is formed in body portion 2 810B. The connection line 860 is connected to the substrate portion 863 (an electronic circuit portion existing in the body portion and formed on the substrate, and thus may be referred to as a “substrate portion”). The waterproof and protection portion 861 is disposed on the connection line. It can move and slide over the connecting line.

The waterproof and protection part 861 is formed in a shape corresponding to the coupling protrusions 810A1 and 810B1. That is, the waterproof and protection part 861 is formed with a plurality of circular ring projections, and the engaging projections 810A1 and 810B1 have projections corresponding to the shape (protrusions formed with semi-circular recesses formed). The size of the shape corresponding to the protrusion may prevent water from entering if it is formed to fit tightly.

In addition, when the connection line 860 is pulled from the outside, the connection between the connection line 860 and the substrate 863 may be broken by the force, and the antiseptic and protection unit 861 fixes the connection line to the body to connect the connection line with the connection line. It also prevents the disconnection of the board.

The connection line 860 is formed in the portion connected to the substrate portion 863, the expansion portion 862 which is flattened and wider is formed to increase the width, this extension portion 862 is waterproof and protective portion 861 ) Prevents the substrate 863 from approaching a predetermined limit or more. Therefore, even when the connection line 860 is pulled from the outside, a strong force is not transmitted to the substrate portion 863, so that the connection between the connection line 860 and the substrate portion 863 is not broken.

The camera device for a mobile device according to the seventh embodiment may be formed such that the camera module unit 880 faces a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the handle as shown in FIG. 7, but the camera module unit 880 as shown in FIG. 10. ) May be formed to face the longitudinal direction of the handle.
