Description

Anti-magnetic interference optical anti-shake voice coil motor

Technical field

The utility model belongs to the technical field of optical anti-shake devices, in particular to an anti-magnetic interference optical anti-shake voice coil motor.

Background technique

The technology of the miniature optical anti-shake voice coil motor has been widely used in high-end mobile phones, which can effectively reduce the chance of taking blurred photos in low light conditions and reduce the disturbing jitter in the film. However, compared with the general autofocus motor, the design of the anti-shake voice coil motor is complicated, the production yield and efficiency are low, and the cost is high. Therefore, the technology has not been popularized to mid-range and low-end mobile phones, and most mobile phone users still fail to enjoy the benefits of the technology.

At present, the miniature optical anti-shake voice coil motor can be divided into three categories, the name and anti-shake principle are as follows:

First, the camera module shifts the axis: the voice coil motor controls the lens and the image sensor to rotate together.

Second, the lens translation: the voice coil motor controls the lens to shift, the image sensor does not move.

Third, the lens shift axis: the voice coil motor controls the lens to rotate, the image sensor does not move.

Each of the above three motors has advantages, but the structure of the lens shifting shaft motor is relatively simple.

The current lens shifting optical anti-shake voice coil motor structure comprises a housing, a base, at least one set of elastic materials, at least three sets of magnets, at least three independent coils, and a lens carrier. The outer casing and the base form a fixed structure; the elastic material is connected with the movable structure including the lens carrier, and the fixed structure forms a multi-degree-of-freedom spring vibration subsystem, so that the lens can be deflected in two directions (for optical image stabilization) , and a displacement along the optical axis (for autofocus). The coils and magnets can be located in stationary and movable structures, respectively, or in movable and stationary structures.

They can be divided into three categories according to the lens carrier and the elastic material.

The first type of lens shifting type optical anti-shake voice coil motor includes at least two sets of energized elastic materials. The energized elastomeric material of such motors must be resilient, electrically conductive (eg, metal), and, under normal operating conditions, may be passed by current (eg, energized to the coil). The two sets of energized elastic materials connect the upper, lower and stationary structures of the lens carrier. Since this type of structure requires mechanical connection of the lens carrier to the energized elastic material above and below the carrier (for example, with glue), and the coils on the lens carrier and the two sets of springs are electrically connected (for example, with solder), Increase the difficulty of production. Moreover, since the two ends of the coil are respectively connected to the energized elastic material as the common end located above and the energized elastic material as the current input end located below, it can be seen that the entire circuit has a long line and is easy for nearby components (especially images) The sensor) generates electromagnetic interference.

The second type of lens shifting type optical anti-shake voice coil motor only includes a set of energized elastic materials connected to the lens carrier and the fixed structure. The lens carrier can contain three coils. One control lens moves along the optical axis to achieve autofocus; the other two control the lens to shift the axis in two directions to achieve optical image stabilization. However, the average position of the focus coil and the average position of the shifting coil are far from the average position of the magnet. When the motor stroke changes, the magnetic field density passing through the coil is prone to non-linear changes, resulting in non-linear motor characteristics. In order to achieve the desired focus and anti-shake effect, this type of motor requires a complex control and debugging system, increasing the cost of the entire anti-shake system and debugging system.

The third type of lens shifting type optical anti-shake voice coil motor does not include a conductive elastic material, and includes only one or two elastic materials, and is connected to a movable structure including a lens carrier and a magnet. Since the active structures of such motors do not require electrical connections, they are more advantageous for production than the first and second types of motors. On the other hand, the average position of the focusing and shifting coils of the first and third types of motors can be very close to the average position of the magnets, so that the nonlinear problem of the second type of motors can be avoided. However, the magnet of the third type of motor is located in the active structure. When other external strong magnetic fields approach them, their performance may be disturbed.
