Handshake correction apparatus of photographing apparatus
View Patent ↗Disclosed is a handshake correction apparatus of a photographing apparatus. The handshake correction apparatus includes a lens support plate that supports a correction lens and operates in a direction perpendicular to an optical axis; a base that supports the lens support plate to be movable; and magnets and driving coils which are assembled on the lens support plate and the base to face each other, wherein the magnets are tight-fitted in assembly grooves of the lens support plate or the base, and wherein one or more protrusions that protrude from internal walls of the assembly grooves toward the magnets and elastically press the magnets are formed in the assembly grooves. Control performance of a correction operation of the handshake correction apparatus may be improved by ensuring alignment between assembly structures of assembly parts including magnets and yokes.
1. A handshake correction apparatus comprising:
a lens support plate that supports a correction lens and operates in a direction perpendicular to an optical axis;
a base that supports movement of the lens support plate; and
one or more magnets and driving coils (yokes) which are assembled on the lens support plate and the base to face each other;
wherein the magnets are tight-fitted in assembly grooves of the lens support plate or the base, the assembly grooves are surrounded in a plane by the lens support plate,
wherein one or more protrusions that protrude from internal walls of the assembly grooves toward the magnets and elastically press the magnets to fix positions of the magnets relative to the assembly grooves are formed in the assembly grooves, and
wherein the one or more protrusions are formed on at least one of the internal walls of the assembly grooves, which surround the magnets.
2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the internal walls of the assembly grooves, which face the one or more protrusions, function as flat reference surfaces.
3. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the one or more protrusions are formed on the internal walls that face the magnets in different directions.
4. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the assembly grooves have a rectangular shape defined by two horizontal walls and two vertical walls, which are separately parallel to each other,
wherein the one or more protrusions are formed on one of the horizontal walls and one of the vertical walls, and
wherein the other one of the horizontal walls and the other one of the vertical walls function as flat reference surfaces.
5. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the one or more protrusions comprise:
one or more first protrusions that are relatively easy to be elastically deformed; and
one or more second protrusions that are relatively difficult to be elastically deformed.
6. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the one or more first protrusions are formed to have a hollow shape.
7. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the one or more protrusions comprise:
one or more first protrusions that have a relatively small protruding thickness toward the magnets; and
one or more second protrusions that have a relatively large protruding thickness toward the magnets.
8. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the one or more protrusions are integrally formed with the internal walls of the assembly grooves.
9. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the one or more protrusions comprise elastic members interposed between the magnets and the internal walls of the assembly grooves.
10. A handshake correction apparatus comprising:
a lens support plate that supports a correction lens and operates in a direction perpendicular to an optical axis;
a base that supports movement of the lens support plate;
one or more magnets and driving coils (yokes) which are assembled on the lens support plate and the base to face each other;
wherein the yokes are tight-fitted in assembly grooves of the lens support plate or the base, the assembly grooves are surrounded in a plane by the lens support plate,
wherein one or more protrusions that protrude from internal walls of the assembly grooves toward the yokes and elastically press the yokes to fix positions of the yokes relative to the assembly grooves are formed in the assembly grooves, and
wherein the one or more protrusions are formed on at least one of the internal walls of the assembly grooves, which surround the yokes.
11. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the internal walls of the assembly grooves, which face the one or more protrusions, function as flat reference surfaces.
12. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the one or more protrusions are formed on the internal walls that face the yokes in different directions.
13. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the assembly grooves have a rectangular shape defined by two horizontal walls and two vertical walls, which are separately parallel to each other,
wherein the one or more protrusions are formed on one of the horizontal walls and one of the vertical walls, and
wherein the other one of the horizontal walls and the other one of the vertical walls function as flat reference surfaces.
14. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the one or more protrusions comprise:
one or more first protrusions that are relatively easy to be elastically deformed; and
one or more second protrusions that are relatively difficult to be elastically deformed.
15. The apparatus of claim 14 , wherein the one or more first protrusions are formed to have a hollow shape.
16. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the one or more protrusions comprise:
one or more first protrusions that have a relatively small protruding thickness toward the yokes; and
one or more second protrusions that have a relatively large protruding thickness toward the yokes.
17. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the one or more protrusions are integrally formed with the internal walls of the assembly grooves.
18. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the one or more protrusions comprise elastic members interposed between the yokes and the internal walls of the assembly grooves.
