Lens driving apparatus
View Patent ↗A lens driving apparatus with a lens portion having at least one lens, a base portion on which an image sensor detecting light coming through said lens portion can be fixed, a driving portion capable of relatively moving said lens portion in a vertical direction to a light axis of said lens portion and in a parallel direction to the light axis of said lens portion with respect to said base portion, and at least three suspension wires connecting a focus portion including said lens portion and said base portion so as to allow a relative movement. The suspension wires are arranged outside a magnet of said driving portion along the vertical direction to the light axis.
1. A lens driving apparatus comprising:
a lens portion having at least one lens,
a base portion on which an image sensor detecting light coming through said lens portion can be fixed,
a driving portion capable of relatively moving said lens portion in a vertical direction to a light axis of said lens portion and in a parallel direction to the light axis of said lens portion with respect to said base portion, and
at least three suspension wires connecting a focus portion including said lens portion and said base portion so as to allow a relative movement, wherein
said suspension wires respectively extend along the light axis outside the focus portion along the vertical direction to the light axis so as to surround the focus portion,
a magnet attached to said focus portion faces a coil of said driving portion fixed on said base portion and a position sensor fixed on said base portion in a light axis direction,
said position sensor comprises a X-direction position sensor and a Y-direction position sensor,
said magnet of said focus portion includes a X-direction blurring compensation magnet and a Y-direction blurring compensation magnet, and
said X-direction position sensor and Y-direction position sensor perform position detecting of said focus portion by detecting a magnetic field variation caused by the movement of said X-direction blurring compensation magnet and Y-direction blurring compensation magnet.
2. The lens driving apparatus as set forth in claim 1 , wherein
said focus portion includes a spring connecting said lens portion so as to allow a relative movement in a direction of the light axis with respect to a focus base and
said spring includes a B-spring arranged at a base side near said base portion in said lens portion and a F-spring arranged at an opposite side of said base side in said lens portion.
3. The lens driving apparatus as set forth in claim 2 , wherein
one tip ends of said suspension wires are fixed to a circuit board of said base portion and
the other tip ends of said suspension wires are fixed to said F-spring.
4. The lens driving apparatus as set forth in claim 3 , wherein
at least two suspension wires of said three suspension wires are electrically connected through said F-spring and an AF coil of said focus portion.
5. The lens driving apparatus as set forth in claim 2 , wherein
said driving portion includes four piece magnets and
said respective piece magnets are arranged at corners of said focus base so as to surround an outer circumference of said lens portion.
6. The lens driving apparatus as set forth in claim 3 , wherein
said driving portion includes four piece magnets and
said respective piece magnets are arranged at corners of said focus base so as to surround an outer circumference of said lens portion.
7. The lens driving apparatus as set forth in claim 1 , wherein
the suspension wires are respectively arranged at the four corners of said base portion.
8. The lens driving apparatus as set forth in claim 1 , wherein
the suspension wires are arranged outside a magnet of said driving portion along the vertical direction to the light axis.
