Abstract

The disclosure discloses an electromagnetic driving module which includes a base, two magnetic elements, a wiring assembly, a reference element, and a sensor element. The two magnetic elements are arranged along a reference line and positioned at two sides of the base. The wiring assembly is connected to the base and arranged adjacent to the two magnetic elements. The reference element is positioned on the base. The sensor element is adjacent to the reference elements and configured to detect the movement of the reference element to position the base. A lens device using the electromagnetic driving module is also disclosed.

Claims (17)

1. An electromagnetic driving module, comprising:

a base, having a groove;

two first magnetic elements, arranged along a first reference line and disposed on two sides of the base;

a wiring assembly, situated on a reference plane with the first reference line extended thereon, arranged adjacent to the two first magnetic elements and connected to the base, wherein the wiring assembly is configured to allow an electric current to pass therethrough;

a reference element, disposed in the groove of the base; and

a sensor element, arranged adjacent to the reference element and configured to detect the movement of the reference element to position the base;

wherein the sensor element is disposed to face the reference element in a direction parallel to the reference plane, and the wring assembly is positioned between the reference element and the sensor element along the direction parallel to the reference plane.

2. The electromagnetic driving module as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising two second magnetic elements arranged along a second reference line and disposed on two sides of the base, wherein at least a portion of the wiring assembly faces the two second magnetic elements.

3. The electromagnetic driving module as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the first reference line and the second reference line are located on the same plane.

4. The electromagnetic driving module as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the two first magnetic elements are point symmetric with respect to a substantially central portion of the base, and the two second magnetic elements are point symmetric with respect to the substantially central portion of the base.

5. The electromagnetic driving module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the wiring assembly comprises two coils, the two coils are respectively adjacent to one of the two first magnetic elements, and each of the two coils comprises an upper portion and a lower portion electrically connected to the upper portion; and

wherein each of the two first magnetic elements comprises an upper magnetic pole adjacent to the upper portion and a lower magnetic pole adjacent to the lower portion, and the upper magnetic pole and the lower magnetic pole have different magnetic properties.

6. The electromagnetic driving module as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a circuit board, and the sensor element is disposed on the circuit board.

7. The electromagnetic driving module as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the wiring assembly is electrically connected to the circuit board and receives an electronic signal from the outside via the circuit board.

8. The electromagnetic driving module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the sensor element comprises a Hall effect sensor, and the reference element comprises a permanent magnet.

9. A lens device, comprising an electromagnetic driving module as claimed in claim 1 , and a lens assembly disposed in the electromagnetic driving module.

10. The lens device as claimed in claim 9 , further comprising an optical sensor arranged adjacent to the lens assembly.
