Abstract

An optical element driving mechanism is provided, including: a movable portion for holding an optical element; a fixed portion comprising a case and a bottom arranged along a main axis, wherein the case includes: a top plate extended along a direction that is perpendicular to the main axis; a sidewall extended from edges of the top plate along the main axis and fixed on the bottom, wherein the sidewall includes: a first surface parallel to the main axis; a second surface connected to the first surface and is not parallel to the first surface; and a third surface opposite to the second surface and is not parallel to the first surface; and an adhesive element, wherein the case is connected to the bottom through the adhesive element, and the adhesive element is in direct contact with the second surface and the third surface.

Claims (34)

1. An optical element driving mechanism, comprising:

a movable portion for holding an optical element;

a fixed portion comprising a case and a bottom arranged along a main axis, wherein the case comprises:

a top plate extended along a direction that is perpendicular to the main axis; and

a sidewall extended from edges of the top plate along the main axis and fixed on the bottom, wherein the sidewall comprises:

a first surface parallel to the main axis;

a second surface connected to the first surface;

a third surface opposite to the second surface; and

a fourth surface connected to the first surface, the second surface, and the third surface, wherein the fourth surface is parallel to the main axis; and

an adhesive element, wherein the case is connected to the bottom through the adhesive element, and the adhesive element is in direct contact with the second surface and the third surface.

2. The optical element driving mechanism as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second surface is parallel to the third surface and has a distance greater than zero to the third surface.

3. The optical element driving mechanism as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the adhesive element is in direct contact with the first surface.

4. The optical element driving mechanism as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the third surface is connected to the first surface.

5. The optical element driving mechanism as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the adhesive element is directly disposed on the fourth surface.

6. The optical element driving mechanism as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the fourth surface is not parallel to the first surface, the second surface, and the third surface.

7. The optical element driving mechanism as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the fourth surface faces the bottom.

8. The optical element driving mechanism as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the bottom comprises:

a sixth surface parallel to the main axis;

a seventh surface connected to the sixth surface and is not parallel to the sixth surface, wherein the adhesive element is in direct contact with the sixth surface and the seventh surface.

9. The optical element driving mechanism as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the bottom further comprises a eighth surface connected to the seventh surface and is parallel to the sixth surface, wherein the sixth surface does not overlap the eighth surface when viewed in a tangent direction of the eighth surface, and the adhesive element is in direct contact with the eighth surface.

10. The optical element driving mechanism as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the seventh surface faces away from the top plate.

11. An optical element driving mechanism, comprising:

a movable portion for holding an optical element;

a fixed portion comprising a case and a bottom arranged along a main axis, wherein the case comprises:

a top plate extended along a direction that is perpendicular to the main axis; and

a sidewall extended from edges of the top plate along the main axis and fixed on the bottom, wherein the sidewall comprises:

a first surface parallel to the main axis;

a second surface connected to the first surface;

a third surface opposite to the second surface;

a fourth surface connected to the first surface, the second surface, and the third surface; and

a fifth surface connected to the first surface, the second surface, and the third surface; and

an adhesive element, wherein the case is connected to the bottom through the adhesive element, and the adhesive element is in direct contact with the second surface and the third surface.

12. The optical element driving mechanism as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the fourth surface is parallel to the fifth surface and has a distance greater than zero to the fifth surface.

13. The optical element driving mechanism as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the first surface is not parallel to the second surface, the third surface, the fourth surface, and the fifth surface.
