Please refer to fig. 7, which discloses a schematic structural diagram of the connection between the first housing 10 and the second housing 20 according to the embodiment shown in fig. 4. One end of the first housing 10, at which the through hole 102 is provided, protrudes into the second receiving space 201 from the communication hole 203. During the adjustment of the adjustable relative displacement, the first housing 10 is retracted into the second receiving space 201 or extended out of the second receiving space 201. In an embodiment, the first housing 10 and the second housing 20 may be in a relationship that one end of the second housing 20 provided with the through hole 203 extends into the first receiving space 101 from the communication hole 102. During the adjustment of the adjustable relative displacement, the second housing 20 is retracted into the first receiving space 101 or extended out of the first receiving space 101.

It can be understood that the first receiving space 101 is communicated with the second receiving space 201, and during the adjustment process of the adjustable relative displacement, the volume of the whole receiving space formed by the first receiving space 101 and the second receiving space 201 changes, so that the whole volume of the camera module 600 changes.

In an embodiment, the through hole 203 of the second housing 20 is disposed opposite to the opening 2021, so that the first housing 10 can extend or retract from the accommodating cavity 1001 through the opening 2021 when extending or retracting from the second accommodating space 201.

Referring to fig. 4, 8 and 9, fig. 8 is a schematic cross-sectional view illustrating a connection between the light redirecting element 30, the lens assembly 40 and the first housing 10 in the embodiment of fig. 4, and fig. 9 is a schematic perspective view illustrating a connection between the light redirecting element 30, the lens assembly 40 and the first housing 10 in the embodiment of fig. 8. The light diverting member 30 is disposed on the first housing 10 and corresponds to the light inlet 121 of the first top wall 12, and is used for receiving incident light entering from the light inlet 121 to divert the incident light. The light turning member 30 may be a plane mirror (also referred to as a mirror), a prism (such as a reflecting prism), or the like, which can change the propagation direction of light by reflection.

Specifically, the light redirecting member 30 may be fixed to the first housing 10, such as the first bottom wall 11 and the first side wall 13, by means of adhesive bonding or the like. The light diverting member 30 has a first reflecting surface 31 for diverting the incident light entering from the light inlet 121 and diverting it to the lens assembly 40.

Referring to fig. 10, a cross-sectional view of another embodiment of the present application is disclosed, wherein the light turning member 30, the lens assembly 40 and the first housing 10 are connected to each other according to the embodiment shown in fig. 8. The light-diverting member 30 may include a base 32 and a light-reflecting member 34. The seat 32 is disposed in the first casing 10, and the light reflector 34 is fixedly mounted on the seat 32 and corresponds to the light inlet 121 of the first casing 10, for receiving incident light entering from the light inlet 121 to turn the incident light.

In an embodiment, the seat 32 can rotate relative to the first housing 10, for example, the seat 32 can rotate around two rotation axes perpendicular to each other, for example, the seat 32 can be connected to the first housing 10 by a universal ball head. Understandably, the mobile phone can vibrate to a certain degree due to environmental factors during photographing, and drives the first shell 10 in the camera module 600 to shake, so that the incident position of external light and the like generate certain deviation, and adverse effects are brought to capturing and imaging of the light. The base 32 and the light reflector 34 are combined together and synchronously rotate relative to the first housing 10, so as to realize the optical anti-shake function by adjusting the angle between the light reflector 34 and the lens assembly 40 or the image sensor 50.

In one embodiment, the light reflection member 34 may be a plane mirror (also referred to as a mirror), a prism (such as a reflection prism), or the like, which can change the propagation direction of light by reflection.

Taking the light reflector 34 as an example of a reflecting prism, please further refer to fig. 11, in which fig. 11 discloses a schematic light propagation diagram between the light reflector 34 and the lens assembly 40 in the embodiment of fig. 10. The light reflector 34 may be a prism, or a primary reflection prism, and may include an incident surface 342, a reflection surface 344, and an exit surface 346. Specifically, the incident surface 342 corresponds to the light entrance 121 of the first housing 10, and is connected to the reflection surface 344 and the emission surface 346 in sequence. The cross sections of the incident surface 342, the reflection surface 344, and the exit surface 346 may be isosceles right triangles (which may also be referred to as total reflection prisms). Specifically, the reflection surface 344 is disposed at an angle of 45 degrees with respect to the incident surface 342 and the exit surface 346, that is, the included angle α between the two is 45 degrees, it should be noted that the inclination degree of the inclined surface of the seat body 32 for fixing the light reflection member 34 is consistent with the inclination degree of the reflection surface 344, so that the light reflection member 34 can be fixed on the seat body 32 by matching the reflection surface 344 with the inclined surface of the seat body 32 for fixing the light reflection member 34. Further, the incident surface 342 and the exit surface 346 are perpendicular to each other. The incident light enters from the incident surface 342 through the light entrance 121, is reflected by the reflection surface 344, changes the propagation direction of the light, and is emitted from the emission surface 346.

Referring to fig. 12, fig. 12 shows a schematic light propagation diagram of the light reflector 34 and the lens assembly 40 according to the embodiment of the present application shown in fig. 10. The light reflection member 34 may also be a quadrangular prism, which includes, in addition to the incident surface 342, the reflection surface 344 and the exit surface 346 of the triangular prism shown in fig. 11, a backlight surface 348 connected between the reflection surface 344 and the exit surface 346 and disposed parallel to and opposite to the incident surface 342. The distance between the backlight surface 348 and the incident surface 342 may be in a range of 4.8-5.0mm, such as 4.8mm, 4.85mm, 4.9mm, 4.95mm, 5.0mm, and the like. The light reflection member 34 formed by the incident surface 342 and the backlight surface 348 arranged within the distance range has a moderate volume, and can be better integrated into the camera module 600, so as to form a more compact and miniaturized first camera assembly, camera module 600 and electronic device 100, thereby satisfying more demands of consumers.

To some extent, the quadrangular prism may be formed by cutting off a part of the corner of the triangular prism shown in fig. 11, which is formed by the reflection surface 344 and the emission surface 346. It should be noted that, as shown in fig. 10, 11 and 12, in practical applications, due to the requirement of incident light, the reflection surface 344 is inclined with respect to the horizontal direction, and the light reflection member 34 is in an asymmetric structure in the reflection direction of the light via the reflection surface 344, so that the actual optical area of the side of the reflection surface 344 away from the light inlet 121 is smaller than that of the side close to the light inlet 121, so that the part of the reflection surface 344 away from the light inlet 121 can reflect only a little or even no light, that is, the contribution of the part to the reflection of the light is very small or even no contribution. The light reflecting piece 34 of the quadrangular prism is opposite to the light reflecting piece 34 of the triangular prism, and the edge angle of the triangular prism far away from the light inlet 121 is cut off, so that the thickness of the light reflecting piece 34 in the direction vertical to the incident surface 342 can be reduced while the steering effect of the light reflecting piece 34 on incident light is not influenced, and the camera module 600 is light, thin and small; and the setting of backlight surface 348 makes light reflecting member 34 can further pass through backlight surface 348 and fix the setting with pedestal 32, thereby make the fixed more firm, stable between the two.

It should be noted that the above description is not intended to limit the structure of the light reflection member 34, for example, the reflection surface 344 may be inclined with respect to the incidence surface 342 by other degrees, such as 30 degrees, 60 degrees, etc.; the incident surface 342 and the exit surface 346 may not be perpendicular, such as inclined at 80 degrees or 90 degrees; backlight surface 348 may not be parallel to entrance surface 342, etc., so long as it is sufficient that light rays diverted through light reflector 34 can be received by lens assembly 40; meanwhile, the light reflection member 34 may be other reflection prisms, such as a double reflection prism, a triple reflection prism, a quadruple reflection prism, and the like.

Further, the reflecting prism may be made of a material having relatively good light transmittance, such as glass or plastic, and a light reflecting material, such as silver, may be coated on the surface of the reflecting surface 344 of the reflecting prism to enhance the reflection of incident light. Further, when the reflecting prism is made of a brittle material such as glass, a hardened layer can be formed on the surfaces of the incident surface 342, the reflecting surface 344, the exit surface 346, the backlight surface 348, and the like by hardening the reflecting prism, thereby improving the strength of the light reflector 34. The hardening treatment may be performed by penetrating lithium ions, or by attaching a film to each surface of the prism without affecting the conversion of light by the light reflecting member 34.

It should be further noted that the number of the light reflecting members 34 may be one, and in this case, the incident light is further transmitted through the lens assembly 40 to the image sensor 50 after being once deflected by the light reflecting members 34. Of course, the number of the light reflecting members 34 may also be multiple, in this case, the incident light may reach the image sensor 50 through the transmission of the lens assembly 40 after being turned multiple times by the multiple light reflecting members 34, which may be specifically set according to actual requirements, and is not specifically limited herein.

The incident light sequentially passes through the first lens module 41, the first focusing member 42, the second focusing member 43, and the second lens module 44.

In one embodiment, the second sub-housing 208 is slidably connected to the first sub-housing 206, in which case the first sub-housing 206 is slidable relative to the second sub-housing 208, so that the first sub-housing 206 and the second sub-housing 208 can be in a sliding state (as shown in fig. 21) or a butt state (as shown in fig. 20).

In one embodiment, a rotatable shaft 810 is disposed in the second sub-housing 208. The shaft 810 is in rolling contact with the display assembly 400. The hinge 810 not only serves to position the display assembly 400, but also can change the moving direction of the display assembly 400.

Also, since the second end of the display assembly 400 is connected to the second end of the elastic member 800, the elastic member 800 can generate a pulling force to the display assembly 400 so that the display assembly 400 at the second side can maintain the unfolded state, thereby preventing damage due to the wrinkle of the display assembly 400.

It can be understood that in the electronic device 100 disclosed in the embodiment of the present invention, the first sub-housing 206 can drive the display element 400 to move, so that the display area of the display element 400 exposed to the external environment is increased, thereby providing a better visual effect for a user. Meanwhile, after the use is completed, the portion of the display module 400 is moved from the second side to the first side, thereby not only achieving the folding of the display module 400,

further, the portion of the display module 400 can be always in the unfolded state on the first side by the pulling force generated by the elastic member 800, and thus the portion of the display module 400 can be prevented from being wrinkled and damaged.

Referring to fig. 24, the first housing 10 of the camera module 600 may be mounted on the first sub-housing 206, and the second housing 20 may be mounted on the second sub-housing 208.

When the second housing 20 is mounted on the second sub-housing 208, the second housing 20 may be a part of the second sub-housing 208, and the second sub-housing 208 moves the second housing 20.

In this way, the first sub-housing 206 can slide relative to the second sub-housing 208, so that the first sub-housing 206 and the second sub-housing 208 can be in a sliding state (as shown in fig. 21), and the first casing 10 can slide relative to the second casing 20 to a side away from the second casing 20.

The first sub-housing 206 slides relative to the second sub-housing 208, so that the first sub-housing 206 and the second sub-housing 208 can be in a butt-joint state (as shown in fig. 20), and the first casing 10 slides to the second casing 20 side relative to the second casing 20.

The camera module 600 in the present application can realize the focusing operation in the relative sliding of the first sub-housing 206 and the second sub-housing 208 in the electronic device 100, so that the display module 400 has different display conditions in different shooting states, thereby improving the interest of the electronic device 100. And can provide more excellent photography and video recording experience for users on the premise of ensuring that the stacking requirement of the mobile phone is not greatly influenced. E.g. a higher zoom factor (larger focal length). For example, the sharpest shot can be taken anywhere within the covered focal segment. Such as a more seamless, play-rich video experience (e.g., jelly/heuchek zoom) with continuous optical zoom.

The above embodiments are merely examples and are not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure, and all modifications, equivalents, and flow charts using the contents of the specification and drawings of the present disclosure or those directly or indirectly applied to other related technical fields are intended to be included in the scope of the present disclosure.
