Abstract
An auto-focusing camera has a base, a focusing element, a lens, a motor and a transmission assembly. The focusing element is mounted movably on the base. The lens is mounted on the focusing element. The motor is mounted and lies flatly on the base and has a shaft mounted rotatably to the motor. The transmission assembly connects to the shaft on the motor and the focusing element and allows the motor to move the focusing element through the transmission assembly. The motor lying on the base decreases a thickness of the auto-focusing camera along an axis of the lens and makes the auto-focusing camera thin and compact. The electrical appliance with the auto-focusing camera is thin, compact and salable.
