Lens driving device, camera, and camera-equipped cellular phone
A lens driving device 1 is provided, in which a spring 11 includes an outer ring portion 11 b that is fixed to a body 5 , an inner ring portion 11 a that is fixed to a lens support 7 , and an arm portion 11 c that connects the outer ring portion 11 b and the inner ring portion 11 a , and the lens support 7 is moved in an optical axis direction of a lens by way of an electromagnetic force that is generated by applying electric current to a coil 15 from a terminal member 6 , the terminal member 6 including a superimposed portion 6 a that is superimposed on the outer ring portion of 11 b of the spring 11 , and a power supply terminal 6 b that protrudes from the superimposed portion 6 a , and the terminal member 6 disposing the superimposed portion 6 a between the outer ring portion 11 b of the spring and the body 5.
1. A lens driving device, comprising:
a body;
a yoke of a barrel shape;
a lens support that is disposed on an inner circumferential side of the yoke;
a coil that is fixed on an outer periphery of the lens support;
a magnet that is provided to the yoke;
a spring that is electrically connected to the coil, the spring including an outer ring portion that is fixed to the body, an inner ring portion that is fixed to the lens support, and an arm portion that connects the outer ring portion and the inner ring portion, and the spring supporting the lens support so as to move freely in an optical axis direction relative to the body; and
a terminal member that abuts with the spring, the terminal member including a superimposed portion that is superimposed on the outer ring portion of the spring, and a power supply terminal that protrudes from the superimposed portion, and the terminal member disposing the superimposed portion between the outer ring portion of the spring and the body,
wherein the lens support is moved in the optical axis direction of a lens by way of an electromagnetic force that is generated by applying electric current to the coil from the terminal member, and
the spring and terminal member are separate members.
2. The lens driving device according to claim 1 , wherein the power supply terminal is bent in parallel with the optical axis of the lens from the superimposed portion.
3. The lens driving device according to claim 2 , wherein the superimposed portion of the terminal member has the same shape as the outer ring portion of the spring.
4. A camera, wherein the lens driving device according to claim 1 is mounted to a substrate to which picture elements are provided, and a power supply terminal is connected to the substrate.
5. A camera-equipped cellular phone, comprising the camera according to claim 4 .
6. A lens driving device, comprising:
a body;
a yoke of a barrel shape;
a lens support that is disposed on an inner circumferential side of the yoke;
a coil that is fixed on an outer periphery of the lens support;
a magnet that is provided to the yoke;
a spring that is electrically connected to the coil, the spring including an outer ring portion that is fixed to the body, an inner ring portion that is fixed to the lens support, and an arm portion that connects the outer ring portion and the inner ring portion, and the spring supporting the lens support so as to move freely in an optical axis direction relative to the body; and
a terminal member that abuts with the spring, the terminal member including a superimposed portion that is superimposed on the outer ring portion of the spring, and a power supply terminal that protrudes from the superimposed portion, and the terminal member disposing the superimposed portion between the outer ring portion of the spring and the body, wherein
the lens support is moved in the optical axis direction of a lens by way of an electromagnetic force that is generated by applying electric current to the coil from the terminal member,
the power supply terminal is bent in parallel with the optical axis of the lens from the superimposed portion,
the superimposed portion of the terminal member has the same shape as the outer ring portion of the spring, and
the spring is divided into a plurality of portions and separated, the portions thus divided are insulated from each other, and a terminal member is provided to each of the portions thus divided.
