This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18351551 titled 'LENS MOVING APPARATUS, CAMERA MODULE AND OPTICAL APPLIANCE INCLUDING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a lens moving apparatus that includes a bobbin, a coil, a magnet, a housing, an elastic member, and a support member.
- The lens is mounted on a bobbin, which can be moved using electromagnetic interaction between a coil and a magnet.
- The bobbin is accommodated within a housing.
- An elastic member, consisting of an inner frame and an outer frame, is connected to the bobbin and the housing.
- The inner and outer frames are connected to each other using a frame connection portion.
- A support member is connected to the elastic member and supports the housing.
- The outer frame has a first coupling portion connected to the housing and a second coupling portion connected to the support member.
- The first and second coupling portions are spaced apart from each other.
- A single connection portion connects the first and second coupling portions to each other.
Original Abstract Submitted
Embodiments provide a lens moving apparatus including a bobbin in which a lens is mounted, a first coil and a magnet configured to electromagnetically interact with each other so as to move the bobbin, a housing configured to accommodate the bobbin therein, an elastic member including an inner frame coupled to the bobbin, an outer frame coupled to the housing, and a frame connection portion configured to connect the inner frame and the outer frame to each other, and a support member connected to the elastic member and configured to support the housing, and the outer frame includes a first coupling portion coupled to the housing, a second coupling portion coupled to the support member, the second coupling portion being spaced apart from the first coupling portion, and a single connection portion configured to connect the first coupling portion and the second coupling portion to each other.
