Camera module with movable frame and lens using magnets
The granted patent (Publication Number: US11885977B2) describes a camera module comprising a carrier supported on a housing, a frame with a first magnet, and a lens module with a second magnet. The frame and lens module can move in different directions relative to each other and the carrier, with attractive forces and magnetic interactions playing a key role in their movement. The housing includes a yoke to facilitate these interactions, ensuring precise and controlled movement of the frame and lens module.
Furthermore, the patent details the arrangement of magnets, coils, and yokes within the camera module to enable movement along specific directions perpendicular to the optical axis. The design ensures that the frame and lens module can be moved independently in different directions, allowing for versatile and accurate adjustments. Additionally, the use of polarizing magnets and single pole magnets, along with coils and yokes, enhances the functionality and performance of the camera module, providing a sophisticated and efficient system for capturing high-quality images.
