A camera module is provided. The camera module includes a driving unit configured to generate a driving force, a plurality of barrels configured to move in an optical axis direction based on the driving force, and a lens module accommodated in any one barrel among the plurality of barrels. The lens module includes a lens holder fixed to the any one barrel, and a carrier accommodated in the lens holder and configured to move with respect to the lens holder in the optical axis direction. A plurality of ball members disposed between the lens holder and the carrier configured to support a movement of the carrier.

Camera module

An aperture module is provided. The aperture module includes a plurality of blades configured to interlock with each other to form a through-hole, a rotator on which the plurality of blades are disposed, a first base on which the rotator is disposed, a second base connected to the first base, and a driving unit disposed on the second base and configured to provide a driving force to move the rotator in a direction that intersects an optical axis direction. The first base is configured to move in an optical axis direction with respect to the second base.

Aperture module and camera module including the same

A camera module includes: a first lens module disposed in a housing; and a reflective module. The reflective module includes: a reflective member including at least two reflective surfaces disposed at different angles and configured to reflect light passing through the first lens module; and a carrier disposed between the reflective member and the housing. The cameral module further includes an image sensor configured to collect light reflected from the reflective module. The reflective member is configured to move in a first direction with respect to the carrier, and the carrier is configured to move in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction with respect to the housing.

A camera module includes: a lens module disposed in a housing and a stop module coupled to the lens module. The stop module includes apertures having different diameters from each other so as to selectively change an amount of light incident on the lens module, a magnet portion to select any one of the apertures by movement of the magnet portion, and a coil disposed on the housing facing the magnet portion to move the magnet portion.

A camera module includes a housing to accommodate a lens module, a stop module coupled to the lens module and configured to selectively change an amount of light incident to the lens module, and a coil portion configured to drive the stop module to selectively change an amount of light incident to the lens module. The coil portion is disposed on the housing.

Camera module and stop module

Disclosed herein is a camera module including: a lens barrel in which one or more lenses are installed; a housing accommodating the lens barrel; a printed circuit board coupled with a bottom of the housing and having an image sensor with a light receiving portion mounted thereon; a window film having a window formed therein to define an incident area of light incident on the image sensor; and an infrared ray blocking member blocking an infrared ray in the light incident on the image sensor.

Camera module including an infrared ray blocking member and a window film which block noise light

There is provided a camera module including: a lens barrel having one or more lenses positioned along an optical axis; and a housing having the lens barrel therein, wherein the housing includes a first through hole into which the lens barrel is inserted and a second through hole having a diameter larger than that of the first through hole.

A lens actuating module for realizing focus adjustment and optical zooming. The lens actuating module includes a rod which is disposed on one side of a lens barrel on which at least one lens is mounted, and has an axis direction corresponding to an optical axis direction of the lens barrel, a driving force transmission member which has a conjoining recess to be conjoined with an outside surface of the rod and has magnetism so as to be conjoined with the outside surface of the rod due to a magnetic force, and a piezoelectric actuator which is disposed on one side of the driving force transmission member in the optical axis direction to provide an axis direction driving force to the rod via the driving force transmission member.

Lens actuating module

A camera module having an auto-focus apparatus comprises a piezoelectric actuator configured to generate a force for moving a driven member, a rod connected to the piezoelectric actuator and configured to transmit the force of the piezoelectric actuator to the driven member, a lens barrel having at least one lens, and a connecting member configured to use magnetic force to couple the rod and the lens barrel together.

Disclosed herein is a lens actuating module for realizing focus adjustment and optical zooming. The lens actuating module includes a rod which is disposed on one side of a lens barrel on which at least one lens is mounted, and has an axis direction corresponding to an optical axis direction of the lens barrel, a driving force transmission member which has a conjoining recess to be conjoined with an outside surface of the rod and has magnetism so as to be conjoined with the outside surface of the rod due to a magnetic force, and a piezoelectric actuator which is disposed on one side of the driving force transmission member in the optical axis direction to provide an axis direction driving force to the rod via the driving force transmission member.

Disclosed herein is an image stabilization mechanism for a camera module. The image stabilization mechanism includes a base, a movable stage receiving a lens barrel therein and having a magnet, and a piezoelectric actuator. The piezoelectric actuator is installed to the base, moves the movable stage in an X-axis or Y-axis direction to remove shake of the lens barrel, and maintains contact with the movable stage because of magnetic attractive force between the piezoelectric actuator and the magnet. The image stabilization mechanism reduces the number of components, thus simplifying the structure and minimizing an increase in height.

Image stabilization mechanism for camera module

Disclosed herein is a camera module. The camera module includes a lens barrel having at least one lens which brings an image of a subject into focus. A housing having a space for the lens barrel, and friction member formed in axially. A piezoelectric actuator provided in an outer circumferential surface of the lens barrel, and generating vibration when external voltage is applied to the piezoelectric actuator, with a through hole formed for having the friction member. An elastic member include the friction member, and inserted into the through hole of the piezoelectric actuator, and applying the vibrations to the friction member.
