Abstract

An easily disassembled lens module in a terminal device includes a lens assembly, a circuit board, and a structural member. The circuit board includes a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion which are connected in sequence. The first portion is connected to the lens assembly, the second portion and the third portion protrude from the lens assembly. The structural member includes a connecting portion fixed on the third portion and at least one pulling portion protruding from the third portion. After installation in the terminal device, the lens assembly can be disassembled by using the at least one pulling portion to pull on the structural member so that the lens assembly can be disassembled without using tools and without causing damage.

Claims (25)

1. A lens module, comprising:

a lens assembly;

a circuit board comprising a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion connected in sequence, the first portion connected to the lens assembly, each of the second portion and the third portion protruding from the lens assembly; and

a structural member comprising a connecting portion and at least one pulling portion, the connecting portion fixed on the third portion, the at least one pulling portion protruding from the third portion and not being directly connected with the circuit board, the structural member being flexible, and the at least one pulling portion configured to be bent relative to the connecting portion.

2. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the second portion comprises a first bending area and a second bending area, an angle is defined between the first bending area and the second bending area; the first bending area is connected to the first portion, the second bending area is connected to the third portion, and the at least one pulling portion protrudes from the second portion.

3. The lens module of claim 2 , wherein the first bending area is perpendicular to the second bending area.

4. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the first portion, the second portion, and the third portion are on a same plane; the at least one pulling portion extends toward the first portion.

5. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the first portion, the second portion, and the third portion are on a same plane; a protruding direction of the at least one pulling portion is perpendicular to the first portion, the second portion, and the third portion when connected.

6. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the at least one pulling portion comprises a plurality of pulling portions.

7. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the structural member is made of plastic, rubber, or fiber.

8. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the structural member is made of polyimide.

9. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the lens module further comprises a thermosetting adhesive, the thermosetting adhesive bonds the third portion and the connecting portion together.

10. A terminal device, comprising:

a lens module, comprising:

a lens assembly;

a circuit board comprising a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion connected in sequence, the first portion connected to the lens assembly, each of the second portion and the third portion protruding from the lens assembly; and

a structural member comprising a connecting portion and at least one pulling portion, the connecting portion fixed on the third portion, the at least one pulling portion protruding from the third portion and not being directly connected with the circuit board, the structural member being flexible, and the at least one pulling portion configured to be bent relative to the connecting portion.

11. The terminal device of claim 10 , wherein the second portion comprises a first bending area and a second bending area, an angle is defined between the first bending area and the second bending area; the first bending area is connected to the first portion, the second bending area is connected to the third portion, and the at least one pulling portion protrudes from the second portion.

12. The terminal device of claim 11 , wherein the first bending area is perpendicular to the second bending area.

13. The terminal device of claim 10 , wherein the first portion, the second portion, and the third portion are on a same plane; the at least one pulling portion extends toward the first portion.

14. The terminal device of claim 10 , wherein the first portion, the second portion, and the third portion are on a same plane; a protruding direction of the at least one pulling portion is perpendicular to the first portion, the second portion, and the third portion when connected.

15. The terminal device of claim 10 , wherein the at least one pulling portion comprises a plurality of pulling portions.

16. The terminal device of claim 10 , wherein the structural member is made of plastic, rubber, or fiber.

17. The terminal device of claim 10 , wherein the structural member is made of polyimide.

18. The terminal device of claim 10 , wherein the lens module further comprises a thermosetting adhesive, the thermosetting adhesive bonds the third portion and the connecting portion together.
