Description

Technical Field

Background
Along with the increase of the demand of consumers for mobile phone photographing, the functions of a mobile phone camera (i.e. a camera module) are more and more abundant, functions such as portrait photographing, long-distance photographing, optical zooming, optical anti-shake and the like are all integrated in the camera with a limited volume, and the functions of automatic focusing and optical anti-shake are often realized by an optical actuator (sometimes also called as a motor).
Along with the imaging quality requirement of the mobile phone camera module is higher and higher, the volume and the weight of the lens are larger and larger, the requirement on the driving force of the motor is also higher and higher, and the occupied volume of the motor is correspondingly increased along with the increase of the lens. However, since the size of the camera module is also greatly limited by the current electronic devices (e.g. mobile phones), the driving force provided by the motor is difficult to increase correspondingly under the trend of the lens toward larger size and larger weight. On the premise that the driving force is limited, the heavier the lens is, the shorter the stroke of the motor capable of driving the lens to move is, and the focusing and anti-shake capabilities are affected. On the other hand, the heavier the lens, the slower the motor can drive the lens to move, and the longer the lens reaches a predetermined compensation position, which also affects the focusing and anti-shake effects.
As the demand for miniaturization of mobile devices has increased, the density of internal components of the motor has also increased. The motor is internally provided with a magnet and a coil and used for generating a magnetic field necessary for driving the lens to move, and when the distance between the two magnets in the motor is too close (less than 7 mm), the internal magnetic fields of the motor can mutually influence, so that the magnets generate displacement or shake, and the focusing and imaging quality of the lens is influenced.

Compared with a magnetic driving mode, the electromagnetic interference prevention effect is better. Meanwhile, super-resolution control can be realized by utilizing the advantage of control precision in chip anti-shake.
According to the embodiment of the present application, the piezoelectric element 221 includes the piezoelectric substrate 2210 and the vibration substrate 2212, wherein the vibration substrate 2212 is located between the driving shaft 223 and the piezoelectric substrate 2210. The at least one piezoelectric actuator 200 is electrically connected to the electrical connector of the fixed substrate 400 through the flexible printed circuit board. The piezoelectric element 221 of at least one piezoelectric actuator 200 is supplied with a pulse voltage through a circuit layer of the electric connection member of the fixed substrate 400, so that the piezoelectric element 221 supplies vibration of the driving shaft 223 in the axial direction, and the driving shaft 223 slightly reciprocates in the axial direction, thereby driving the moving member 225 to linearly move on the driving shaft 223. And the rate at which the driving shaft 223 is vibrated in the axial direction can be controlled by supplying pulse voltages of different frequencies to the vibration part, thereby varying the rate at which the moving member 225 moves on the driving shaft 223.
According to the embodiment of the present application, the piezoelectric substrate 2210 is a substrate having a piezoelectric effect and contracting or expanding according to a polarization direction and an electric field direction, and the vibration substrate 2212 may have a constant thickness.

When the polarization direction of the piezoelectric substrate 2210 and the direction of an electric field applied to the piezoelectric substrate 2210 are the same, the piezoelectric substrate 2210 may be deformed and contracted such that its width becomes narrower and its thickness increases. The potential difference of the voltage applied to the piezoelectric substrate 2210 can be instantaneously inverted, and the piezoelectric substrate 2210 and the vibration substrate 2212 change the state of displacement accordingly, and if the above-described potential difference change is repeated, the piezoelectric substrate 2210 and the vibration substrate 2212 can continuously vibrate up and down.
According to the embodiment of the present application, the piezoelectric element 221 further includes a plurality of piezoelectric telescopic bodies 2214 and a plurality of electrodes, and the plurality of piezoelectric telescopic bodies 2214 and the plurality of electrodes are alternately laminated. When the piezoelectric element 221 has a laminated structure, a large amount of displacement can be obtained even when a small electric field is applied. When the directions of the electric fields are different due to the potential differences of the electrodes, the piezoelectric telescopic bodies 2214 are deformed, expanded or contracted, and the driving shaft 223 is driven to reciprocate by the constant deformation of the piezoelectric element 221.
According to the embodiment of the present application, the piezoelectric element 221 has a rectangular parallelepiped shape having sides along the X axis, the Y axis, and the Z axis, respectively, which are orthogonal to each other. In the present application, the length of the piezoelectric element 221 in the X-axis direction is 1mm, the length in the y-axis direction is 1mm, and the length (height) in the z-axis direction is 2mm. Of course, the present application does not limit the size thereof.

As shown in fig. 7, a plurality of electrodes are arranged in the plurality of piezoelectric telescopic bodies 2214, and a plurality of electrodes alternately sandwiching the plurality of piezoelectric telescopic bodies 2214 are inner electrodes 2216. The electrodes disposed on the surfaces of the piezoelectric telescopic bodies 2214 and disposed above and below the piezoelectric telescopic bodies are referred to as an upper electrode 22162 and a lower electrode 22167, respectively.
Further, the plurality of piezoelectric telescopic bodies 2214 arranged on the surfaces of the plurality of piezoelectric telescopic bodies 2214 and arranged on the side surfaces thereof are referred to as side surface electrodes 22161. When the piezoelectric telescopic body 2214 has 1 layer, a pair of electrodes is provided on the upper and lower surfaces of the piezoelectric telescopic body 2214, and the side electrodes 22161 are connected to an external circuit by soldering or the like. When the piezoelectric telescopic body 2214 has a plurality of layers, electrode layers having the same polarity are connected to each other through the side surface electrodes 22161, and the electrode layers of the positive and negative electrodes can be led out on both side surfaces.
Referring to fig. 5 and 6, it can be seen that the driving shaft 223 is shaped to have a cylindrical, polygonal or square shape according to the embodiment of the present application, and the driving shaft 223 is fixed to the vibration base plate 2212. In the present embodiment, the piezoelectric element 221 is bonded to the center of the upper surface thereof with an adhesive. The drive shaft 223 may be made of any one of carbon, heavy metals, carbides of heavy metals, borides of heavy metals, and nitrides of heavy metals as a main material component.
In this application, vibration base plate 2212 is piezoceramics pole or piezoceramics piece, and vibration base plate 2212 can be connected or mould plastics integrated into one piece through the viscose mode with drive shaft 223, and vibration base plate 2212 structure is simpler, the cost is lower, and this application does not do not limit. The vibration substrate 2212 is not limited to piezoelectric ceramics, and may be other structures capable of driving the photosensitive assembly 100 to move by using the piezoelectric principle, and the application is not limited thereto. The vibration substrate 2212 has one end connected to the piezoelectric substrate 2210 and the other end connected to the driving shaft 223, wherein the moving member 225 may be in frictional contact with the driving shaft 223.
According to the embodiment of the present application, the driving shaft 223 is fixed to the composite layer of the piezoelectric substrate 2210 and the vibration substrate 2212, and is fixed to the piezoelectric substrate 2210 or the vibration substrate 2212 according to the uppermost layer of the composite layer.
According to the embodiment of the present application, the control unit of the image pickup module can generate bending deformation of the composite layer of the piezoelectric substrate 2210 and the vibration substrate 2212 by applying a voltage to the piezoelectric substrate 2210. As above, if the voltage applied to the piezoelectric substrate 2210 repeats the potential difference change, the piezoelectric substrate 2210 and the vibration substrate 2212 can continuously vibrate up and down.
As shown in fig. 5, according to an embodiment of the present application, the voltage applied by the control unit to the piezoelectric substrate 2210 of the at least one piezoelectric actuator 200 may include a forward voltage and a contraction voltage, and the forward voltage and the contraction voltage are varied from a first voltage to a second voltage during a first period, and the second period is varied from the second voltage to the first voltage during a second period, wherein the first period of the forward voltage is longer than the second period, and the second period of the contraction voltage is longer than the first period.
The case of a in fig. 5 is a case where the piezoelectric substrate is in the original position without the turn-on voltage. The forward and reverse voltages embodied in the case of fig. 5 b are configured to cause the piezoelectric substrate 2210 to protrude upward during the first period by a stroke a, and the forward and reverse voltages embodied in the case of fig. 5 c are configured to cause the piezoelectric substrate 2210 to protrude downward during the second period. After the first period of applying the positive voltage, when the moving member 225 moves forward on the driving shaft 223 and the contraction voltage is applied, the moving member 225 may move backward on the driving shaft 223 by a stroke B during the second period.
According to the embodiment of the present application, when a forward voltage is repeatedly applied to the piezoelectric substrate 2210, the piezoelectric substrate 2210 of one end expands and contracts, so that the vibration substrate 2212 is convexly deformed in one direction into a bowl shape, and is rapidly restored to the original flat plate shape.
According to the embodiment of the present application, when a contraction voltage is repeatedly applied to the piezoelectric substrate 2210, the piezoelectric substrate 2210 at the other end expands and contracts, so that the vibration substrate 2212 is convexly deformed into a bowl shape in the other direction and is rapidly restored to the original flat plate shape.
When the length direction of the driving shaft 223 of the at least one piezoelectric actuator 200 is arranged along the X-axis direction, the vibrating substrate 2212 of the at least one piezoelectric actuator 200 drives the driving shaft 223 to perform a linear reciprocating motion along the X-axis direction, so that the driving shaft 223 drives the moving member 225 to drive the driven member to move along the X-axis direction through a friction force. When the length direction of the driving shaft 223 of the another at least one piezoelectric actuator 200 is arranged along the Y-axis direction, the vibration substrate 2212 of the at least one piezoelectric actuator 200 drives the driving shaft 223 to perform linear reciprocating motion along the Y-axis direction, so that the driving shaft 223 drives the moving member 225 to drive the driven member to move along the Y-axis direction through friction. The at least one piezoelectric actuator 200 can drive the driving shaft 223 through the vibrating substrate 2212 to drive the moving member 225 to move the driven member along two directions (X-axis direction and Y-axis direction) perpendicular to each other on the imaging plane through friction force.
When the driving shaft 223 reciprocates in the longitudinal direction of the shaft, the moving member 225 and the driving shaft 223 come into frictional contact, and when the vibration base 2212 is deformed in one direction into a bowl shape, the moving member 225 and the driving shaft 223 move together, and when the vibration base 2212 is quickly restored to the original flat plate shape, the driving shaft 223 also moves in the reverse direction, and since the moving member 225 is in a high-speed state, it cannot follow the movement of the driving shaft 223, and it cannot return to the original position, and it can only stay at the position.
Therefore, when the moving member 225 moves with a large amplitude of deformation of the vibration base 2212 during one movement, the above movement can be repeated by repeatedly applying the pulse voltage, and the moving member 225 can be moved to a target position. In addition, when the moving member 225 moves with a large amplitude of deformation of the plurality of piezoelectric telescopic bodies 2214 in one movement process, the movement can be repeated by repeatedly applying the pulse voltage, and the moving member 225 can be moved to a target position.
It should be noted that, compared with the driving mechanism in the prior art, the at least one piezoelectric actuator 200 not only has the advantages of small volume, large thrust, high precision, relatively simple driving structure, and suitability for driving heavier products, but also has a smaller structure, and the circuit extends through the side surface of the piezoelectric element 221, is relatively simple, and is suitable for being used in a module with a compact space.
