本申请提出一种摄像头模组,可以应用于手机、电视、电脑等电子设备上。该摄像头模组具备升降功能,在非工作状态,可以隐藏于电子设备的内部,采用该摄像头模组的电子设备的外观简约大方。此外,摄像头模组还能够进行左右摆动以及上下摆动,拍摄范围大,配合不同的使用场景,拍摄不同的位置。或者,结合软件设计实现跟随物体移动以进行拍摄的功能。为方便理解摄像头模组的结构,将以该摄像头模组应用于电视为例进行说明,应当理解,本申请摄像头模组的应用范围不局限于此。
将上述摄像头模组装配于电视背面靠近顶部处。具体的,可采用粘接方式将摄像头模组连接于电视背面,或者,在电视的顶部开设用于放置摄像头模组的安装槽。请参阅图1和图2,摄像头模组包括壳体10、摄像头20、升降组件30、第一旋转组件40及第二旋转组件50。升降组件30用于带动摄像头20相对壳体10沿Z轴方向运动,以使摄像头20隐藏或伸出于壳体10。需要使用摄像头20时,通过升降组件30带动摄像头20上升至露出于电视上方的位置,即摄像头20处于伸出状态。摄像头20处于伸出状态时,第一旋转组件40能够带动摄像头20绕第一方向转动。第二旋转组件50能够带动摄像头20绕第二方向转动,其中,第二方向垂直于第一方向。在一实施例中,将电视朝向用户正立放置,第一方向为竖直方向,即Z轴方向。第二方向为XY平面内的任意方向,例如X轴方向。第一旋转组件40能够带动摄像头20绕竖直方向左右转动,第二旋转组件50能够带动摄像头20上下转动,从而该摄像头模组具有立体视角,能够满足多种场景的应用需求。
壳体10作为升降组件30、第一旋转组件40、第二旋转组件50及摄像头20的安装载体。具体的,壳体10可以设计为方形结构,壳体10的侧面开设有供摄像头20穿过的通道11。在一实施例中,壳体10包括底座12和盖体13,盖体13与底座12可拆卸连接。底座12内形成有凹槽,用于装配升降组件30、第一旋转组件40、第二旋转组件50及摄像头20。盖体13设于底座12上,用于保护壳体10内的其他元件,使得该摄像头模组能够作为单独的配件进行生产、组装以及销售。在其他实施例中,摄像头模组应用于手机上,壳体10包括相连接的中框和背板,壳体10同时还用于安装手机的其他部件。
升降组件30包括安装座31、导向件32、升降架33及推动单元34。安装座31为框体结构,具有依次连接的多个侧壁。安装座31外侧设有耳部311,以便将安装座31与壳体10进行安装固定。在其他实施例中,安装座31与壳体10也可以是一体结构。导向件32固定设于安装座31的侧壁。可以理解的,导向件32呈杆状结构,导向件32的个数可为1个或多个。升降架33活动穿设于导向件32上,升降架33和导向件32之间套设有轴承,以减少升降架33沿导向件32运行过程中的阻力,避免导向件32被磨损。第一旋转组件40、第二旋转组件50及摄像头20设于升降架33上,推动单元34带动升降架33沿导向件32移动时,摄像头20能够相对壳体10上升或下降。当需要使用摄像头20时,控制推动单元34带动升降架33沿导向件32向上运动,以使摄像头20伸出于壳体10外部。当摄像头20处于非工作状态时,控制推动单元34带动升降架33向下运动,使摄像头20隐藏于壳体10内部,有利于保持电视外观的完整性。
在一实施例中,推动单元34包括旋转电机341、丝杆342及螺母(图未示)。丝杆342与导向件32平行设置于安装座31的侧壁,螺母与丝杆342螺纹连接,且固定于升降架33。旋转电机341用于带动丝杆342转动,并通过丝杆342和螺母传动,将丝杆342的旋转运动转化为螺母的直线运动,从而带动升降架33沿导向件32做直线运动。可以理解的,推动单元34也可以 采用将旋转电机、丝杆及螺母整合为一体的电动缸。
在其他实施例中,推动单元34可选用气缸,例如磁耦合无杆气缸或推力气缸等。
升降组件30还包括第一传感器35和第二传感器36,请结合图3,升降架33上设有挡片37,第一传感器35和第二传感器36用于检测挡片37的位置。第一传感器35和第二传感器36间隔设置,第一传感器35和第二传感器36包括相对设置的光信号发射器和光信号接收器。升降架33带动挡片37移动至第一传感器35或第二传感器36的检测区域内,挡片37对光信号发射器发出的光信号形成遮挡,光信号接收器无法接收前述光信号,第一传感器35或第二传感器36进而能够获得挡片37的到位信号,控制系统根据该到位信号控制推动单元34的运动状态,避免升降架33超出运动极限位置而与安装座31发生撞击。可以理解的,第一传感器35和第二传感器36还可以是超声波传感器。
请参阅图4,第一旋转组件40包括旋转电机41和转动体42。升降架33包括安装部331,转动体42与安装部331转动连接,升降架33对转动体42起到承载作用。在一实施例中,转动体42大致为圆柱形,转动体42的轴线平行于第一方向。在其他实施例中,转动体42也可设计为其他形状。旋转电机41设于安装部331,用于带动转动体42绕第一方向转动。摄像头20连接于转动体42远离安装部331的一端,转动体42转动时,能够带动摄像头20左右摆动。在一实施例中,旋转电机41与转动体42同轴设置。在其他实施例中,旋转电机41和转动体42之间通过多个齿轮44传动,其中一个齿轮44与旋转电机41同轴设置,一个齿轮44与转动体42同轴设置。多个尺寸不同的齿轮44相互啮合,一方面用于调节转动体42的转速,另一方面,使得旋转电机41和转动体42得以交错设置,能够为其他部件提供安装空间,例如,可在转动体42的端部设置用于检测其旋转角度的检测单元43。第一旋转组件40还包括罩体(图未示),罩体设于安装部331上,多个齿轮44 位于罩体和安装部331围合形成的安装空间内,起到防尘作用。
请参阅图4和图5,转动体42包括主体部421和设于主体部421的连接部422,主体部421开设有容纳槽421a,第二旋转组件50部分位于容纳槽421a内,该种设置方式,能够合理利用转动体42的内部空间,使得摄像头模组的各元件结构紧凑,体积小巧。请参阅图6,转动体42背离第二旋转组件50的一端开设有限位槽423,升降架33设有配合块(图未示),配合块位于限位槽423内,用于限定转动体42的旋转角度。
进一步地,请再次参阅图4,第一旋转组件40还包括检测单元43,检测单元43包括检测块431和传感器432,检测块431设于转动体42远离摄像头20的一端,传感器432用于检测检测块431随转动体42旋转的角度,以便控制旋转电机41的工作状态。在一实施例中,检测块431为磁铁,传感器432为霍尔传感器。磁铁随转动体42转动的过程中,其产生的磁场发生变化,通过霍尔传感器检测出变化的磁场并转化为电压信号,从而检测出转动体42的转动角度。在其他实施例中,检测块431为码盘,码盘开设有缺口,传感器432为接近传感器。
请参阅图4和图5,第二旋转组件50包括转轴51和动力元件52,转轴51活动穿设于连接部422,并固定连接于摄像头20。动力元件52用于驱动转轴51转动,以使摄像头20绕转轴51的轴线发生偏转。其中,转轴51的轴线即为第二方向,第二方向与第一方向垂直。动力元件52设于转动体42开设的容纳槽421a内,该种设置方式,能够合理利用转动体42的内部空间,使得摄像头模组的各元件结构更为紧凑,占用空间较小。
请参阅图7和图8,摄像头20开设有配合槽21,转轴51的端部连接于配合槽21的侧壁211,连接部422至少部分位于配合槽21内,使得转动体42与摄像头20的衔接更紧密,有利于降低摄像头模组沿转动体42的轴线方向的尺寸,进而减小摄像头模组的总体积。此外,摄像头20相对转动体42绕第二方向转动的过程中,当到达极限位置时,连接部422与配合槽21的端 壁212相抵接,从而限定摄像头20前后转动的角度。
需要说明的是,请参阅图5,连接部422远离主体部421的一端形成有弧形面422a,连接部422与摄像头20上配合槽21的前壁或后壁相抵接时,连接部422的弧形面422a与前壁或后壁逐步相抵并缓慢减速,避免连接部422与摄像头20的前壁或后壁发生猛烈撞击而损坏摄像头20。
摄像头20前后转动的过程中与主体部421相抵接,摄像头20形成有导向面22,主体部421形成有与导向面22相匹配的滑槽421c,在摄像头20转动的过程中,滑槽421c能够起到导向作用,使得摄像头20沿第二方向的转动更平稳。
请参阅图4,第二旋转组件50还包括传动件53,动力元件52通过传动件53带动转轴51转动,。在一实施例中,传动件53包括相啮合的第一齿轮531和第二齿轮532,第二齿轮532设于转轴51上,第一齿轮531能够受动力元件52驱动而发生转动,进而通过第二齿轮532带动转轴51转动。动力元件52具体可以为微型电机,微型电机的主体安装于转动体421开设的容纳槽421a内,第一齿轮531设于动力元件52的输出轴上。进一步地,第一齿轮531和第二齿轮532均为锥形齿轮,相应地,第一齿轮531和第二齿轮532的轴线相互垂直。由于动力元件52与第一齿轮531同轴,转轴51与第二齿轮532同轴,那么动力元件52的输出轴与转轴51相互垂直,从而能够将动力元件52竖直设置于转动体421内,以充分利用转动体42的内部空间,使得摄像头模组的各元件更为紧凑,整体结构小巧。
进一步地,请参阅图8,第二旋转组件50还包括减速器54,减速器54与动力元件52同轴设置,并位于转动体42的容纳槽421a内。
在其他实施例中,微型电机的输出轴与转轴51的轴线平行设置,传动件53相应地设置为传动皮带,传动皮带绕设于微型电机的输出轴和转轴51,微型电机可以通过传动皮带带动转轴51转动。
请参阅图2,摄像头模组还包括主板60,主板60上设有控制电路,升降 组件30的推动单元34、第一旋转组件40的旋转电机41、第二旋转组件50的动力元件52分别通过柔性电路板连接至主板60上。在一实施例中,主板60与升降架33相对设置,升降组件30的第一传感器35、第二传感器36均设于主板60上。此外,第一旋转组件40的检测单元43也连接至主板60上。主板60上的控制电路能够接收例如用户通过遥控器发出的指令,控制相应的推动单元34、旋转电机41或动力元件52启动,以带动摄像头20运动;并根据第一传感器35、第二传感器36及检测单元43反馈的信号,控制推动单元34、旋转电机41停止运动。
需要说明的是,请参阅图5,转动体42的主体部421开设有与容纳槽421a连通的通孔421b,以便柔性电路板穿过通孔421b与位于容纳槽421a内的动力元件52与相连接,通过柔性电路板实现动力元件52与主板60的电连接。请参阅图5和图6,转动体42的主体部421还开设有走线槽421c,以供电连接于摄像头20的柔性电路板穿过,而连接至主板60。
本申请还提出一种电子设备,该电子设备包括摄像头模组,摄像头模组能够伸出或隐藏于电子设备内部。当摄像头模组处于伸出状态即使用状态时,摄像头20能够左右转动以及前后转动,摄像范围大,以满足用户的多种需求。此外,该摄像头模组的结构紧凑,体积小巧,采用该摄像头模组的电子设备整体简约大方。
以上所述实施例的各技术特征可以进行任意的组合,为使描述简洁,未对上述实施例中的各个技术特征所有可能的组合都进行描述,然而,只要这些技术特征的组合不存在矛盾,都应当认为是本说明书记载的范围。
