Description

A camera structure and mobile phone with the camera structure

technical field

The invention relates to a camera, in particular to a camera structure capable of entering light in two directions and a mobile phone with the camera structure.

Background technique

With the development of the communication industry, 3G mobile phones have gradually entered people's lives. Therefore, the camera of the mobile phone has gradually changed from the current camera function to the real-time transmission of the scene. They are all necessary, but due to technical problems such as cost and structure, the pixel of the rear camera (the camera on the back of the phone) is relatively high, and the pixel of the front camera (the camera on the side of the screen) is too low, which is common in most 3G mobile phones at present. The problem. Moreover, the pixels of the front cameras of some mobile phones are too low, which makes users feel that the clarity is too poor when making video calls or taking selfies, and some people even give up using the front cameras.

In order to solve the above problems, the existing Chinese patent document CN201536382U discloses a 360° rotatable mobile phone camera, the 360° rotatable mobile phone camera includes a mobile phone and a camera arranged on the mobile phone, and the described mobile phone is provided with a camera for installing the camera The mounting body, the camera mounting body and the mobile phone body are split and connected through a central rotating shaft. The camera data line is located in the rotating shaft and connected to the data processing system of the mobile phone body through the rotating shaft. Although this application can solve the problem of inconvenient use caused by the inconsistent pixels of the front and rear cameras of the existing mobile phone; however, in this application, the camera mounting body and the mobile phone body are split and connected through the central rotating shaft, which makes the mobile phone The structure is complex, the volume is large, and it is easy to bump when it is installed on the outside of the mobile phone, which is not conducive to the protection of the camera lens.

Wherein, the lens is a single-sided reflective reflector; before rotation, the incident light reflection direction of the reflective surface of the lens is parallel to the axis of the lens; after 90° rotation, the incident light of the same reflective surface of the lens The reflection direction is parallel to the axis of the lens.

Wherein, the lens is a double-sided reflective reflector; before rotation, the incident light reflection direction of one reflective surface of the lens is parallel to the axis of the lens; after 90° rotation, the other reflective surface of the lens The reflection direction of the incident light is parallel to the axis of the lens.

Wherein, the included angle between the lens and the lens end face of the camera is 45°.

Wherein, a control device for controlling the rotation of the lens is also included.

Wherein, a limiting device for limiting the lens is also included.

A mobile phone, including the camera structure.

Wherein, the camera structure is located on the top of the mobile phone.

The beneficial effects of the present invention are: the camera structure of the present invention is provided with a rotatable lens in front of the lens of the camera, and the lens is used to receive light from both sides of the camera structure, and the light received by the lens is reflected by the lens. Then enter the camera, you can achieve the purpose of shooting in two directions. The mobile phone equipped with the camera structure of the present invention integrates the camera structure with the mobile phone, so that the overall structure of the product is compact and the appearance is simple; only one camera structure is needed, and the lens can be rotated during shooting to realize shooting in both directions. , and the camera used for shooting processing is the same camera, so the shooting effect is the same regardless of which direction the front and back are. Reduce the number of cameras and reduce costs.

Detailed ways

The technical solutions of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and through specific implementation methods.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , a camera structure includes a camera 11 and a lens 12 rotatably arranged in front of the lens of the camera 11 . The camera structure is provided with a rotatable mirror 12 in front of the camera lens of the camera 11, and adopts the mirror 12 to receive light from both sides of the camera structure, and the light received by the mirror 12 enters the camera 11 after being reflected by it. The purpose of shooting in two directions can be realized.

The rotation center of the lens 12 is located on the axis of the lens of the camera 11, which can effectively ensure the light beam received by the camera 11, thereby ensuring the shooting effect.

The rotation angle of the eyeglass 12 is 90°, if the eyeglass 12 is a single-sided reflective reflector; before the rotation, the incident light reflection direction of the reflective surface of the eyeglass 12 is parallel to the axis of the lens; after the rotation of 90°, the same reflective surface of the eyeglass 12 The direction of reflection of incident light is parallel to the axis of the lens.

The angle of rotation of the eyeglass 12 is 90 °, if the eyeglass 12 is a double-sided reflective reflector; before the rotation, the incident light reflection direction of a reflective surface of the eyeglass 12 is parallel to the axis of the eyeglass; The incident light reflection direction of the reflective surface is parallel to the axis of the lens.

The included angle between the lens 12 and the lens end face of the camera 11 is 45°.

The camera structure 1 also includes a control device for controlling the rotation of the lens 12 .

The camera structure 1 also includes a limiting device for limiting the lens 12 .

As shown in FIGS. 3 to 5 , a mobile phone includes the above-mentioned camera structure 1 . Preferably, the camera structure 1 is located on the top of the mobile phone 3 .

If when the eyeglass 12 in the camera structure 1 is at the initial position, at this moment, the incident light 2 on one side of the back side of the mobile phone 5 is incident on the eyeglass 12, and enters the camera 11 after being reflected by the eyeglass 12, and the shooting on the back side of the mobile phone 5 is completed. ; and when the front side of the mobile phone needs to be photographed, the control device in the camera structure 1 controls the lens 12 to rotate 90°. The light reflected by the lens 12 is collinear or parallel to the axis of the camera 11. At this time, the incident light 2 on the side of the front side of the mobile phone 4 is incident on the lens 12, and enters the camera 11 after being reflected by the lens 12 to complete the front side of the mobile phone 4. shooting.

The mobile phone 3 equipped with the camera structure 1 of the present invention integrates the camera structure 1 and the mobile phone 3, so that the overall structure of the product is compact, the appearance is simple, and it is beneficial to the protection of the camera; in actual use, only one camera structure 1 is needed. , when shooting, the lens can be rotated according to the different shooting orientations to realize shooting in two directions, front and rear, and the camera for shooting processing is the same camera 11, so the shooting effect is the same no matter which direction is front and back, so the final formed The picture effect is the same, which will greatly improve the problems of low pixel shooting, inability to shoot macro shots, and low definition of the front camera in existing electronic products, improve the shooting effect, reduce the number of cameras, and reduce the cost. Simultaneously, since the lens 12 is a double-sided reflective reflector, it can rotate 90° to realize the function of 180° of light collection, and the light collection effect is better in actual shooting.

The above describes the technical principles of the present invention in conjunction with specific embodiments. These descriptions are only for explaining the principles of the present invention, and cannot be construed as limiting the protection scope of the present invention in any way. Based on the explanations herein, those skilled in the art can think of other specific implementation modes of the present invention without creative efforts, and these modes will all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
