Abstract
A shutter assembly includes: a driver for generating a rotation force; an input gear unit rotated by the driver; a transmission gear unit rotated by the input gear unit; an output gear unit rotated by the transmission gear unit; and a rotation unit that is rotated by the output gear unit between a position for transmitting light and a position for blocking light, wherein the transmission gear unit at least partially corresponds to a rotation path of the rotation unit and is spaced apart from a surface containing the rotation path along a direction of a central axis of the transmission gear unit.
Claims20
A shutter assembly comprising:
- a driver that generates a rotation force;
- an input gear unit rotated by the driver;
- a transmission gear unit rotated by the input gear unit;
- an output gear unit rotated by the transmission gear unit;
- and
- a rotation unit that is rotated by the output gear unit between a position for transmitting light and a position for blocking light,
- wherein the transmission gear unit at least partially corresponds to a rotation path of the rotation unit and is spaced apart from a surface containing the rotation path along a direction of a central axis of the transmission gear unit.
A photographing apparatus comprising:
- a driver that generates a rotation force;
- an input gear unit rotated by the driver;
- a transmission gear unit rotated by the input gear unit;
- an output gear unit rotated by the transmission gear unit;
- a rotation unit that is rotated by the output gear unit between a position for transmitting light and a position for blocking light;
- and
- an imaging device that converts transmitted light into an electrical signal when the rotation unit is in a position for transmitting light,
- wherein the transmission gear unit at least partially corresponds to a rotation path of the rotation unit and is spaced apart from a surface containing the rotation path along a direction of a central axis of the transmission gear unit.
