CAMERA MODULE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18541442 titled 'CAMERA MODULE
The camera module described in the patent application consists of a lens module with at least one lens, a housing to hold the lens module, and a driving magnet with first and second magnets on the lens module at a specific distance apart. The lens module is supported by the housing with a ball member in between, which includes two ball members positioned between the first and second magnets in the optical axis direction. Both magnets are located on one surface of the lens module.
- The camera module includes a lens module with at least one lens.
- The lens module is housed in a housing.
- A driving magnet with first and second magnets is attached to the lens module at a distance.
- The lens module is supported by a ball member between the lens module and the housing.
- The ball member consists of two ball members positioned between the first and second magnets in the optical axis direction.
- Both magnets are placed on one surface of the lens module.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in smartphones, tablets, and other electronic devices with cameras. - It can also be applied in security cameras, surveillance systems, and automotive cameras.
Problems Solved: - Provides stable support for the lens module within the housing. - Allows for precise positioning of the lens module. - Ensures smooth movement of the lens module for focusing and zooming.
Benefits: - Improved image quality in cameras. - Enhanced durability and longevity of camera modules. - Simplified assembly process for camera manufacturing.
Commercial Applications: Title: Innovative Camera Module Technology for Enhanced Imaging This technology can be utilized in the consumer electronics industry for the production of high-quality cameras in smartphones, tablets, and other devices. It can also benefit the security and automotive sectors by providing reliable camera modules for surveillance and safety systems.
Questions about Camera Module Technology: 1. How does the ball member contribute to the stability of the lens module within the housing? The ball member acts as a support mechanism between the lens module and the housing, ensuring stable positioning and movement of the lens module.
2. What are the advantages of having the driving magnet with first and second magnets on one surface of the lens module? Having both magnets on one surface allows for a more compact design and efficient operation of the camera module.
Original Abstract Submitted
A camera module includes a lens module including at least one lens, a housing accommodating the lens module, and a driving magnet including first and second magnets disposed on the lens module at an interval. The lens module is supported by the housing with a ball member interposed therebetween. The ball member includes two ball members disposed between inner sides of the first and second magnets in an optical axis direction. The first and second magnets are both disposed on one surface of the lens module.
