Image pickup apparatus
An image pickup apparatus includes an image sensor, a substrate mounted with the image sensor, a first holding member configured to hold the image sensor, and having an opening configured to expose an imaging plane of the image sensor, the image sensor being fixed to the first holding member via an adhesive while the image sensor is housed in the opening of the first holding member, and a convex portion extending in a direction from the first holding member to the substrate.
1. An image pickup apparatus comprising:
an image sensor;
a substrate mounted with the image sensor;
a first holding member configured to hold the image sensor, and having an opening configured to expose an imaging plane of the image sensor, the image sensor being fixed to the first holding member via an adhesive while the image sensor is housed in the opening of the first holding member;
a convex portion configured to extend in a direction from the first holding member to the substrate;
an optical filter;
a second holding member configured to hold the optical filter, the convex portion being formed at part of the second holding member;
an arm portion configured to connect the convex portion and the second holding member to each other; and
a fixing member disposed on the arm portion and configured to fix the convex portion and the first holding member,
wherein the arm portion is flexible.
2. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the substrate has an area provided outside a mounting area of the image sensor and opposite to the first holding member, and the convex portion extends toward the area of the substrate.
3. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a gap is provided between a tip of the convex portion and the substrate.
4. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first holding member has a through-hole, and
wherein the convex portion is inserted into the through-hole in the first holding member from the second holding member and extends toward the substrate.
5. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising a conductive member electrically connected to the optical filter,
wherein the first holding member and the optical filter are electrically connected to each other when the fixing member fixes the conductive member.
6. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising a connector mounted on a surface opposite to a first surface of the substrate mounted with the image sensor,
wherein the convex portion is disposed opposite to the connector and configured to extend toward the first surface of the substrate.
7. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a first distance in an optical axis direction between a tip of the convex portion and the substrate is shorter than a second distance in the optical axis direction between the first holding member and the substrate.
8. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first holding member includes a bent portion provided on a side surface of the image sensor, and the adhesive is filled in a space between the side surface of the image sensor and the bent portion of the first holding member.
9. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein a first distance in an optical axis direction between a tip of the convex portion and the substrate is shorter than a second distance in the optical axis direction between a tip of the bent portion and the substrate.
