Plastic barrel, lens module and electronic device
A plastic barrel includes an object-end portion, an image-end portion, an inner tube portion and a plurality of protrusions. The object-end portion includes an outer object-end surface, an object-end hole and an inner annular object-end surface. One side of the inner annular object-end surface is connected to the outer object-end surface and surrounds the object-end hole. The image-end portion includes an outer image-end surface, an image-end opening and an inner annular image-end surface. The inner annular image-end surface is connected to the outer image-end surface and surrounds the image-end opening. The inner tube portion connects the object-end portion and the image-end portion and includes a plurality of inclined surfaces. The protrusions are disposed at least on one of the inner annular object-end surface, the inner annular image-end surface and the inclined surfaces, wherein the protrusions are regularly arranged around the central axis of the plastic barrel.
1. A plastic barrel, which is for holding at least one lens element, comprising:
an object-end portion, comprising:
an object-end hole; and
an inner annular object-end surface surrounding the object-end hole;
an image-end portion;
an inner tube portion connecting the object-end portion and the image-end portion, and comprising:
a plurality of inclined surfaces, wherein each of the inclined surfaces has an angle with a central axis of the plastic barrel; and
a plurality of protrusions disposed on the object-end portion, wherein a portion of the protrusions is disposed on the inner annular object-end surface, the portion of the protrusions is regularly arranged around the central axis of the plastic barrel, each protrusion of the portion of the protrusions is strip-shaped and extends away from the object-end hole, and the portion of the protrusions does not have contact with the at least one lens element;
wherein the protrusions and the plastic barrel are formed integrally, and a number of the protrusions is greater than or equal to 80, and smaller than or equal to 800.
2. The plastic barrel of claim 1 , wherein a width of each of the protrusions in a circumferential direction of the plastic barrel is w, and the following condition is satisfied:
0.01 mm<w<0.05 mm.
3. The plastic barrel of claim 1 , wherein a height of each of the protrusions is h, and the following condition is satisfied:
0.01 mm<h<0.06 mm.
4. The plastic barrel of claim 1 , wherein the inner tube portion further comprises:
a plurality of parallel surfaces parallel to the central axis of the plastic barrel, wherein a number of the parallel surfaces is at least six.
5. The plastic barrel of claim 1 , wherein an outer diameter of the object-end portion is smaller than an outer diameter of the image-end portion.
6. The plastic barrel of claim 1 , further comprising:
at least two gate traces symmetrically disposed around the central axis of the plastic barrel.
7. The plastic barrel of claim 6 , wherein the object-end portion further comprises:
an outer annular object-end surface, wherein the outer annular object-end surface surrounds the object-end hole, a distance between the outer annular object-end surface and the central axis is greater than a distance between the inner annular object-end surface and the central axis, and the gate traces disposed on the outer annular object-end surface.
8. A lens module, comprising:
the plastic barrel of claim 1 ; and
an optical lens assembly disposed in the plastic barrel and comprising a plurality of lens elements.
9. The lens module of claim 8 , wherein the object-end hole is an aperture stop of the optical lens assembly.
10. An electronic device, comprising:
the lens module of claim 8 .
