STOPPER AND CAMERA MODULE INCLUDING STOPPER - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240210788 titled 'STOPPER AND CAMERA MODULE INCLUDING STOPPER

The camera module described in the patent application includes a carrier within a housing, a guide member in the carrier to compensate for shaking in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis, a stopper covering the upper portion of the carrier to accommodate the guide member, and a damper member in the stopper.

  • The guide member is designed to compensate for shaking in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis.
  • The stopper covers the upper portion of the carrier to house the guide member.
  • The damper member, located in the stopper, consists of an eleventh damper member opposing the guide member in one direction and a twenty first damper member opposing the guide member in another direction perpendicular to the optical axis.
  • The damper member directly opposes the guide member to stabilize the camera module.

Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in smartphones, digital cameras, and other electronic devices with camera modules. - It can improve image stabilization in handheld devices and reduce blurriness in photos and videos.

Problems Solved: - Addresses the issue of shaking and instability in camera modules. - Helps improve the quality of images and videos captured by electronic devices.

Benefits: - Enhanced image stabilization for better quality photos and videos. - Improved user experience with reduced blurriness in images and videos.

Commercial Applications: - This technology can be applied in the development of smartphones, action cameras, security cameras, and other devices requiring stable image capture.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the damper member contribute to stabilizing the camera module? 2. What are the potential implications of this technology in the consumer electronics market?


Original Abstract Submitted

a camera module includes a carrier provided in a housing; a guide member disposed in the carrier, and configured to compensate for shaking in a perpendicular direction to an optical axis direction; a stopper configured to cover an upper portion of the carrier to accommodate the guide member; and a damper member, disposed in the stopper, comprising either one or both of an eleventh damper member opposing the guide member in a first direction perpendicular to the optical axis direction, and a twenty first damper member opposing the guide member in a second direction perpendicular to the optical axis direction and the first direction. the damper member directly opposes the guide member.
