Abstract

A lens barrel assembly of a camera module and a laser apparatus for assembling the lens barrel assembly are provided. The lens barrel assembly of a camera module includes: at least one lens; a barrel provided with a lens exposing hole having a predetermined size which is formed to penetrate a central portion of a closed upper surface of the barrel, wherein the lens is inserted from an lower opening of the barrel toward the lens exposing hole; and a stopping protrusion which is formed by fuse-securing a fused material on a boundary region between an outer circumference of the lens and an opened inner surface of the barrel by illumination of a laser beam on the opened inner surface of the barrel.

Claims (8)

1. A lens barrel assembly of a camera module, comprising:

at least one lens;

a barrel provided with a lens exposing hole having a predetermined size which is formed to penetrate a central portion of a closed upper surface of the barrel, wherein the lens is inserted from an lower opening of the barrel toward the lens exposing hole; and

a stopping protrusion which is formed by fuse-securing a fused material on a boundary region between an outer circumference of the lens and an opened inner surface of the barrel by illumination of a laser beam on the opened inner surface of the barrel,

wherein at least two stopping protrusions are formed in the boundary region between the outer circumference of the lens and the inner surface of the barrel in a circumferential direction.

2. The lens barrel assembly of claim 1 , wherein the barrel is formed as a screwless hollow-cylindrical member of which outer surface is not provided with a screw.

3. The lens barrel assembly of claim 1 , wherein the barrel is formed as a hollow-cylindrical member of which outer surface is provided with a male screw.

4. The lens barrel assembly of claim 1 , wherein the barrel further comprises spacers which are disposed between adjacent lenses to maintain an interval.
