CAMERA MODULE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18402134 titled 'CAMERA MODULE

The camera module described in the patent application includes a housing, a cover member, a lens holder, a movable holder, and a pop-up actuator.

  • The cover member is movably disposed in the housing in the optical axis direction via an elastic member.
  • The lens holder is located inside the housing.
  • The movable holder is movably disposed inside the lens holder in the optical axis direction via another elastic member and contains a lens barrel.
  • The pop-up actuator consists of a driving magnet and a driving coil facing each other on the housing and the cover member, driving movement of the cover member in the optical axis direction.

Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in smartphones, digital cameras, and other electronic devices that require compact camera modules. - It can also be applied in security cameras, surveillance systems, and automotive cameras.

Problems Solved: - The camera module allows for precise movement of the lens and cover member, ensuring accurate focus and protection of the lens. - The pop-up actuator mechanism provides a reliable way to control the movement of the cover member.

Benefits: - Improved image quality due to precise lens movement. - Enhanced durability and protection of the lens. - Compact design suitable for various electronic devices.

Commercial Applications: Title: Innovative Camera Module Technology for Electronic Devices This technology can be commercialized by camera module manufacturers for smartphones, digital cameras, security systems, and automotive applications. The compact design and precise movement capabilities make it a valuable addition to various electronic devices.

Questions about Camera Module Technology: 1. How does the pop-up actuator mechanism improve the functionality of the camera module? 2. What are the potential commercial applications of this innovative technology?
