Abstract

A lens driving module for holding and moving a lens is provided, including a lens holder, a first electromagnetic driving assembly disposed on the lens holder, a base, a second electromagnetic driving assembly disposed on the base, and a first elastic member. The lens holder has an accommodating space and a first surface, and the lens is disposed in the accommodating space. The base has a connecting surface and a first contacting surface. The connecting surface and the first contacting surface are coplanar. The second electromagnetic driving assembly is adjacent to the first electromagnetic driving assembly, and the first elastic member is connected to the connecting surface and the lens holder. When the lens holder contacts the base, the first surface contacts the first contacting surface.

Claims (30)

1. A lens driving module for holding and moving a lens, comprising:

a lens holder, having an accommodating space and a first surface, wherein the lens is disposed in the accommodating space;

a first electromagnetic driving assembly, disposed on the lens holder;

a base, having a connecting surface and a first contacting surface, wherein the connecting surface and the first contacting surface are coplanar, and the area of the first surface is greater than the area of the first contacting surface;

a second electromagnetic driving assembly, disposed on the base and adjacent to the first electromagnetic driving assembly; and

a first elastic member, connected to the connecting surface and the lens holder, wherein when the lens holder contacts the base, the first surface contacts the first contacting surface.

2. The lens driving module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the connecting surface and the first contacting surface face the lens holder.

3. The lens driving module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the base further comprises a sticking surface and a recess, the second electromagnetic driving assembly is attached to the sticking surface, and the recess is disposed between the sticking surface and the first contacting surface.

4. The lens driving module as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the recess is adjacent to a first side of the base, and a plurality of longitudinal members are formed in the recess, wherein the longitudinal members extend along the extending direction of the first side.

5. The lens driving module as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the base further comprises an inclined surface connected to the sticking surface, and the sticking surface is disposed between the inclined surface and the recess.

6. The lens driving module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the lens holder further comprises an opening corresponding to the accommodating space, and the first contacting surface is communicated with the opening.

7. The lens driving module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the base substantially has a rectangular structure.

8. A lens driving module for holding and moving a lens, comprising:

a lens holder, having an accommodating space and a first surface, wherein the lens is disposed in the accommodating space;

a first electromagnetic driving assembly, disposed on the lens holder;

a base, having a connecting surface and a first contacting surface, wherein the connecting surface and the first contacting surface are coplanar, and the first contacting surface is separated from the connecting surface;

a second electromagnetic driving assembly, disposed on the base and adjacent to the first electromagnetic driving assembly; and

a first elastic member, connected to the connecting surface and the lens holder, wherein when the lens holder contacts the base, the first surface contacts the first contacting surface.

9. A lens driving module for holding and moving a lens, comprising:

a lens holder, having an accommodating space and a first surface, wherein the lens is disposed in the accommodating space;

a first electromagnetic driving assembly, disposed on the lens holder;

a base, having a connecting surface and a first contacting surface, wherein the connecting surface and the first contacting surface are coplanar;

a second electromagnetic driving assembly, disposed on the base and adjacent to the first electromagnetic driving assembly; and

a first elastic member, connected to the connecting surface and the lens holder, wherein when the lens holder contacts the base, the first surface contacts the first contacting surface, wherein the lens holder further comprises a second surface and a third surface, and the base further comprises an opening, a second contacting surface, a first side, a second side connected to the first side, and a third contacting surface disposed between the first contacting surface and the second contacting surface, wherein the opening corresponds to the accommodating space, the first contacting surface is disposed between the opening and the first side, and the second contacting surface is disposed between the opening and the second side, wherein when the lens holder contacts the base, the second surface contacts the second contacting surface, and the third surface contacts the third contacting surface, wherein the distance between the first contacting surface and the third contacting surface is greater than the distance between the second contacting surface and the third contacting surface.

10. The lens driving module as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the second contacting surface and the connecting surface are coplanar.

11. The lens driving module as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the second contacting surface faces the lens holder.

12. The lens driving module as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the second contacting surface is separated from the connecting surface.

13. The lens driving module as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the third contacting surface and the connecting surface are coplanar.

14. The lens driving module as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the third contacting surface is separated from the connecting surface.

15. The lens driving module as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the third contacting surface has an L-shaped structure.
