Abstract
A camera module is provided. The camera module includes a lens module; a housing configured to accommodate the lens module; an image sensor module disposed below the lens module; and a first driving unit, configured to move the image sensor module in a direction perpendicular to an optical axis, and including a first coil disposed on the lens module and a first magnet disposed on the image sensor module, wherein the first coil may be formed in a shape of a ring having a hollow portion, and the first magnet may be disposed in the hollow portion of the first coil.
Claims18
A camera module, comprising:
- a lens module;
- a housing, configured to accommodate the lens module;
- an image sensor module, disposed below the lens module;
- and
- a first driving unit, configured to move the image sensor module in a direction perpendicular to an optical axis, and comprising a first coil disposed on the lens module, and a first magnet disposed on the image sensor module,
- wherein the first coil is configured to have a shape of a ring having a hollow portion, and the first magnet is disposed in the hollow portion of the first coil, and
- wherein the first magnet has a first polarity and a second polarity in an optical axis direction.
A camera module, comprising:
- a lens module, comprising at least one lens;
- a housing, in which the lens module is fixedly disposed;
- an image sensor module, disposed below the lens module;
- and
- a first driving unit comprising a first coil disposed in the housing and a first magnet disposed on the image sensor module,
- wherein the first driving unit is configured to generate a driving force in an optical axis direction,
- wherein the first coil is configured to have a shape of a ring having a hollow portion, and the first magnet is disposed in the hollow portion of the first coil, and
- wherein the first magnet has a first polarity and a second polarity in a direction perpendicular to an optical axis.
An electronic device, comprising:
- a camera module comprising:
- a housing;
- a lens module, configured to be fixedly disposed in the housing;
- an image sensor module, configured to move in both of an optical axis direction and a direction perpendicular to the optical axis direction;
- and
- a driving unit, configured to move the image sensor module, and comprising one or more coils fixedly disposed in the housing, and one or more magnets attached to the image sensor module;
- wherein the one or more coils is configured to have a ring shape with a hollow portion therein, and the one or more magnets is disposed in the hollow portion of the one or more coils.
