Abstract
An a camera module includes: a lens barrel housing lenses; a housing formed integrally with the lens barrel; and a substrate unit having a top surface bonded to the housing with an adhesive and including pass portions through which an ascending and descending unit passes, the ascending and descending unit vertically moving the housing to perform focusing when the housing is bonded to the substrate unit.

A camera module comprising:
- a lens barrel housing lenses;
- a housing formed integrally with the lens barrel;
- and
- a substrate unit having a top surface bonded to the housing with an adhesive and comprising pass portions through which an ascending and descending unit passes, the ascending and descending unit vertically moving the housing to perform focusing when the housing is bonded to the substrate unit.
A method of focusing a camera module, comprising:
- disposing a housing over a substrate unit such that the housing is positioned at a bonding position with the substrate unit, the housing formed integrally with a lens barrel comprising a lens;
- applying an adhesive onto the bonding position of the substrate unit, and provisionally bonding the housing;
- and
- focusing the camera module by vertically moving the position of the housing an ascending and descending unit which passes through pass portions formed in the substrate unit.
A device for focusing a camera module having a lens barrel housing lenses, a housing formed integrally with the lens barrel, and a substrate unit having a top surface bonded to the housing with an adhesive and comprising pass portions through which an ascending and descending unit passes, the ascending and descending unit vertically moving the housing to perform focusing when the housing is bonded to the substrate unit, comprising:
- the ascending and descending unit formed to pass through the pass portions formed in the substrate unit;
- and
- a driving unit moving the ascending and descending unit to vertically move the housing integrated with the lens barrel, in order to focus the camera module.
