When the coil 202 is energized, the iron core 201 and the magnetic element 103 generate an attraction force to move the magnetic element 103 toward the iron core 201, so that the position-limiting portion 106 is separated from the supporting member 400, i.e., the lens module 300 can be driven by the driving mechanism 700 to be retracted into the electronic device 1.

In particular, the magnetic member 103 and the electromagnet 104 may be kept at relative positions, and the magnetic member 103 and the electromagnet 104 may be arranged in various ways, for example, the first way is as described above; the second setting mode is as follows: on the basis of the first arrangement mode, the positions of the magnetic member 103 and the electromagnet 104 are exchanged, that is, the electromagnet 104 is arranged at the bottom of the body 105, and the magnetic member 103 is fixed on the back plate 11; as shown in fig. 14 and 15, the third setting mode is: the magnetic element 103 is arranged on the top of the body 105, the electromagnet 104 is embedded into the side surface of the stopping part 43 facing the limiting part 106, and when the supporting element 400 is in clamping fit with the buckling element 102, the electromagnet 104 is opposite to the magnetic element 103; the fourth setting mode is as follows: on the basis of the third arrangement mode, the positions of the magnetic element 103 and the electromagnet 104 are exchanged, that is, the electromagnet 104 is arranged on the top of the body 105, the magnetic element 103 is embedded into the side surface of the stopping portion 43 facing the limiting portion 106, in the first arrangement mode and the second arrangement mode, when the electromagnet 104 is electrified with forward current, the magnetic element 103 and the electromagnet 104 are magnetically attracted to enable the limiting portion 106 to be separated from the supporting member 400, and in the third arrangement mode and the fourth arrangement mode, when the electromagnet 104 is electrified with reverse current, the magnetic element 103 and the electromagnet 104 generate repulsive force to enable the limiting portion 106 to be separated from the supporting member 400. In short, the positions of the magnetic member 103 and the electromagnet 104 are set only to satisfy the requirement that the magnetic member 103 and the electromagnet 104 attract or generate a repulsive force to separate the position-limiting portion 106 from the supporting member 400 when the lens module 300 is retracted into the accommodating cavity 13, and the supporting member 400 can move away from the opening 14.

Referring to fig. 1 and 3, the electronic device 1 further includes a second guide rod 203, the second guide rod 203 is located on one side of the lead screw 600 close to the supporting portion 81, one end of the second guide rod 203 is connected to the first side plate 22, the other end is connected to the second side plate 23, a second guide hole 512 is formed through the push block main body 51, the second guide rod 203 passes through the second guide hole 512, and the push block 500 moves linearly under the guidance of the second guide rod 203, so that the pushing, retracting and rotating processes of the lens module 300 are more stable.

The following describes the pushing, forward rotation, reverse rotation and retracting processes of the lens module 300 in detail:

and (3) a push-out process: after the motor 72 starts to work, the reduction gearbox 73 reduces the speed and increases the torque and then transmits the torque to the lead screw 600, so that the lead screw 600 rotates in the forward direction, the push block 500 is driven by the lead screw 600 to move linearly towards the through opening 14, the push block 500 pushes the pre-compressed first elastic member 82 towards the through opening 14, the lifting force is transmitted to the support 400, the support 400 pushes the fastening member 102 along the inclined surface 108 to move linearly, the support 400 drives the lens module 300, the first transmission assembly 800 and the second transmission assembly 900 to move towards the through opening 14, after the lens module 300 moves for a certain distance, the stopping portion 43 of the support 400 is limited and cannot move towards the through opening 14, at this time, the support 400 is clamped in the limiting groove 109, the lens module 300 passes through the through opening 14 and is located outside the accommodating cavity 13 (as shown in fig. 9), the limiting portion 106 is in clamping fit with the support 400, during this process, the push block 500, the lens module 300 only moves linearly without rotating.

And (3) forward rotation process: in this embodiment, the positive rotation of the lens module 300 is defined as the counterclockwise rotation of the lens module 300 around the axis parallel to the first direction Y. After the lens module 300 is pushed out of the accommodating cavity 13, the supporting member 400 is limited by the fastening member 102 and cannot move freely, the motor 72 drives the screw rod 600 to rotate in the forward direction, the push block 500 moves towards the lens module 300, the first elastic member 82 is compressed by the push block 500, but because the supporting member 400 is limited, the push block 500 and the first guide rod 91 move relatively to convert the linear motion into the rotational motion, the first guide rod 91 drives the first gear 93 to rotate, the second gear 94 is in meshing transmission with the first gear 93 to drive the shaft member 92 to rotate, so as to drive the lens module 300 to rotate in the forward direction, and when the push block 500 moves to a corresponding position continuously, the lens module 300 rotates to a forward-shooting state and a 360-degree state, as shown in fig. 10 and 11, at this time, the lens module 300 is in the forward-rotation state. When the motor 72 drives the lead screw 600 to rotate in the opposite direction, the push block 500 moves away from the lens module 300 under the action of the lead screw 600, i.e., moves toward the inside of the electronic device 1, so as to drive the first guide rod 91 to rotate in the opposite direction, drive the first gear 93 to rotate in the opposite direction, and drive the shaft 92 to rotate in the opposite direction through the second gear 94, thereby driving the lens module 300 to rotate to the initial angle.

And (3) reverse rotation process: in this embodiment, the reverse rotation of the lens module 300 is defined as the clockwise rotation of the lens module 300 around the axis parallel to the first direction Y. After the lens module 300 is pushed out of the accommodating cavity 13, the supporting member 400 is limited by the fastening member 102 and cannot move freely, the motor 72 drives the screw rod 600 to rotate reversely, the push block 500 moves away from the lens module 300, the second elastic member 83 is compressed by the push block 500, but because the supporting member 400 is limited, the push block 500 and the first guide rod 91 move relatively to convert the linear motion into the rotational motion, the first guide rod 91 drives the first gear 93 to rotate, the second gear 94 and the first gear 93 are in meshing transmission to drive the shaft member 92 to rotate, so as to drive the lens module 300 to rotate reversely relative to the supporting member 400, when the push block 500 moves to a corresponding position continuously, the lens module 300 rotates to a forward state and a 360-degree state, as shown in fig. 12 and 13, at this time, the lens module 300 is in a reverse rotation state. When the motor 72 drives the lead screw 600 to rotate in the opposite direction, the push block 500 moves toward the lens module 300 under the action of the lead screw 600, i.e., moves toward the inside of the electronic device 1, so as to drive the first guide rod 91 to rotate in the opposite direction, drive the first gear 93 to rotate in the opposite direction, and drive the shaft 92 to rotate in the opposite direction through the second gear 94, thereby driving the lens module 300 to rotate to the initial angle.

And (3) a recovery process: the electromagnet 104 is energized, the magnetic member 103 and the electromagnet 104 magnetically attract or generate a repulsive force to separate the position-limiting portion 106 from the supporting member 400, the motor 72 drives the lead screw 600 to rotate in the opposite direction, the lead screw 600 drives the push block 500 to move linearly away from the lens module 300, and the push block 500 drives the supporting portion 81 to drive the supporting member 400 and the lens module 300 to synchronously move linearly through the second elastic member 83 until the lens module 300 retracts into the electronic device 1 through the through opening 14.
