Abstract

A durable camera module comprises a lens holder and a lens barrel. An opening is defined in the lens holder. The opening passes through the lens holder along an axial direction of the lens holder. At least one notch is defined in a side wall of the lens holder. The at least one notch extends radially through the side wall of the lens holder. The lens barrel is received in the opening. A first adhesive layer is formed between the lens barrel and lens holder. The first adhesive layer is positioned at an end of the lens holder and surrounds the lens barrel. A second adhesive layer is formed in each of the at least one notch, the second adhesive layer is bonded to the lens barrel.

Claims (13)

1. A camera module comprising:

a lens holder defining an opening and at least one notch, the opening passing through the lens holder along an axial direction of the lens holder, each of the at least one notch passing through a sidewall of the lens holder along a radial direction of the lens holder; and

a lens barrel, the lens barrel received in the opening;

wherein a first adhesive layer is formed between the lens barrel and lens holder, the first adhesive layer is positioned at an end of the lens holder and surrounds the lens barrel, a second adhesive layer is formed in each of the at least one notch, the second adhesive layer is bonded to the lens barrel, and the second adhesive layer is adhered to the first adhesive layer.

2. The camera module of claim 1 , wherein the first adhesive layer is annular, and the second adhesive layer is stripe-shaped.

3. The camera module of claim 1 , wherein a first screw thread is formed on an outer surface of the lens barrel, a second screw thread is formed on an inner surface of the lens holder, the second screw thread is positioned on an entire inner surface of the lens holder, and the first thread is screwed with the second screw thread.

4. The camera module of claim 1 , wherein a first screw thread is formed on an outer surface of the lens barrel, a third screw thread is formed on an inner surface of the lens holder, the third screw thread is only positioned at a portion of the inner surface of the lens holder, and the first thread is screwed with the third screw thread.

5. The camera module of claim 1 , further comprising a substrate, wherein the lens holder is fixed on the substrate.

6. The camera module of claim 5 , wherein the lens holder is fixed to the substrate by screw.

7. The camera module of claim 5 , further comprising an image sensor, wherein the image sensor is fixed on the substrate.

8. The camera module of claim 5 , further comprising a capacitor, wherein the image sensor is fixed on the substrate, and the capacitor is electrically connected with the substrate.

9. The camera module of claim 5 , wherein the substrate is a circuit board.

10. The camera module of claim 1 , wherein a third adhesive layer is formed between the lens holder and the substrate, and the third adhesive layer surrounds the lens holder and fills a gap between the lens holder and the substrate.
