Optical element driving mechanism
An optical element driving mechanism is provided, including an immovable part, a movable part, and an elastic assembly. The movable part is movable relative to the immovable part. The movable part is connected to an optical element. The elastic assembly is elastically connected to the immovable part and the movable part. The elastic assembly includes a base and a plurality of wires. The wires are electrically independent, and each of the wires includes a first portion extending along a first direction. When viewed from the first direction, the first portions at least partially overlap each other.
1. An optical element driving mechanism, comprising:
an immovable part;
a movable part movable relative to the immovable part and connected to an optical element; and
an elastic assembly elastically connected to the immovable part and the movable part, wherein the elastic assembly applies an elastic force to the movable part to restrict range of motion of the movable part, and the elastic assembly comprises:
a base under the movable part;
a plurality of wires on the base and under the movable part, wherein the wires are electrically independent, and each of the wires comprises a first portion extending along a first direction, a second portion extending along a second direction, and a third portion that is movable and connects the first portion and the second portion, wherein when viewed from the first direction, the first portions at least partially overlap each other; and
a first insulation layer disposed between the base and the wires,
wherein the optical element has an optical axis that is not parallel with the first direction, and when viewed from the optical axis, the first portions at least partially overlap the immovable part, the second portions at least partially overlap the movable part, and at least part of the third portions are visible.
