Abstract
A socket in which a light-emitting diode can be attached and detached as needed close to the structure for holding a camera module. Socket comprises a spring contact part for contacting the leads or electrodes of the light-emitting diode, and an anchor for anchoring such that the direction of a dome section has a predetermined relationship with the camera module.
Claims7
A camera and auxiliary light assembly comprising:
- a circuit board;
- a camera module holding structure mounted on the circuit board and electrically connected thereto by reflow soldering and holding a camera module at a predetermined orientation, said camera module being operably mounted in said camera module holding structure without reflow soldering;
- a light source housing mounted on the circuit board adjacent the camera module holding structure and electrically connected thereto by reflow soldering and operably, detachably holding a light-emitting diode comprising a dome section, said light-emitting diode being operably, detachably held by said light source housing without reflow soldering;
- and
- an anchor for anchoring the light-emitting diode at an orientation with the central longitudinal axis of the dome section extending towards the camera module imaging field.
