Camera unit and imaging apparatus
View Patent ↗A camera unit 100 is provided and includes an imaging device for receiving light of an optical image incident from a lens unit; a support board for supporting the imaging device; and a holder having an attachment part to which the support board is attached. The attachment position of the support board in the optical axis direction to the holder is determined by means of an irregularity part formed on the attachment part of the holder or the support board so that the light reception surface of the imaging device matches the image formation position of the optical image.
1. A camera unit comprising:
an imaging device that receives light of an optical image incident from a lens unit;
a support board that supports the imaging device; and
a holder having an attachment part to which the support board is attached,
wherein
at least one of the attachment part of the holder and the support board has an irregularity part, the irregularity part determining an attachment position of the support board in an optical axis direction with respect to the holder so that a light reception surface of the imaging device matches an image formation position of the optical image, and
wherein the irregularity part comprises a protrusion part on the attachment part of the holder and a notch or through hole in the support board so as to avoid the protrusion part, the protrusion part and the notch or through hole fitting together to determine the attachment position of the support board.
2. The camera unit according to claim 1 , wherein different support boards can be selectively attached to the attachment part of the holder in accordance with at least one of a thickness and the light reception surface of the imaging device.
3. The camera unit according to claim 1 wherein a first support board having the notch or through hole and a second support board not having the notch or through hole can be selectively attached to the attachment part of the holder.
4. The camera unit according to claim 2 , wherein the irregularity part comprises a protrusion part on the attachment part of the holder and a notch or through hole in the support board so as to avoid the protrusion part, the protrusion part and the notch or through hole fitting together to determine the attachment position of the support board.
5. The camera unit according to claim 4 wherein a first support board having the notch or through hole and a second support board not having the notch or through hole can be selectively attached to the attachment part of the holder.
6. An imaging apparatus comprising a camera unit according to claim 1 .
