In order to meet the application requirements in various fields, an optical anti-shake technology and an automatic focusing technology are often added to shooting equipment. The optical anti-shake technology can control the lens to move relative to the image sensor, so that image deviation caused by hand shake or external action is counteracted, and the imaging stability of the equipment in a shake environment is guaranteed. The automatic focusing technology can move the lens along the optical axis direction to make the shot object image clearest. In both of these techniques, the lens moves to different degrees, and when the movement stops, a driving system needs to be used to apply a driving force in the opposite direction to the lens, so as to stop the lens movement as soon as possible, and when shooting is performed without an anti-shake or focusing function, the lens still needs to be powered on continuously to keep stable, so that the temperature of the optical system rises, and as the temperature rises, the stability of the system is worse, which affects the imaging effect.

Detailed Description
The following detailed description of specific embodiments of the present disclosure is provided in connection with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating the present disclosure, are given by way of illustration and explanation only, not limitation.
In the present disclosure, the use of directional terms such as "inner and outer" is intended with respect to the proper contours of the respective parts, unless otherwise specified. In addition, the terms "first, second, and the like" used in the embodiments of the present disclosure are for distinguishing one element from another, and have no order or importance. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, like numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated.
The present disclosure provides a lens module control method, wherein, referring to fig. 5, 7 and 9, a lens module includes a lens module, a base 1 for mounting the lens module, and a brake mechanism 2 fixed on the base 1 and capable of holding the lens module, fig. 1 is a flowchart of the lens module control method provided in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, and the method includes the following steps: in step s101, position information of the lens module is acquired; here, the position information of the lens module may include position information of a handheld device or an external motion influence that causes the lens module to shake, and may also include position information that is out of focus when the device is shooting.
In step s102, the brake mechanism 2 is controlled to be energized to release the lens module; in this step, the brake mechanism 2 can hold the lens module in a non-energized state to hold the lens module fixed, and after the above-mentioned positional information of the lens module is acquired, the brake mechanism 2 is energized to release the lens module from the brake mechanism 2.
Then, after the brake mechanism 2 releases the lens module, in step s103, the lens module is controlled to operate according to the position information; in this step, the lens module performs an anti-shake or focusing operation according to the position information.
Finally, at step s104, when the lens module reaches the target position, the control brake mechanism 2 is deenergized to hold the lens module. In this step, the target position refers to a position where the lens module can perform photographing after the lens module has compensated for shake or completed focusing, and at this time, the braking mechanism 2 may hold the lens module again so that the lens module is held at the target position for photographing. In the control process, the system continuously acquires the position information of the lens module all the time until the acquired position information is consistent with the set target position, the lens module stops acting, and the braking mechanism is powered off to keep the lens module.
Through the technical scheme, the brake mechanism 2 which is released after the lens module is electrified and is kept after power failure is designed, and when the anti-shake or focusing function is not used, the brake mechanism 2 can quickly stop the lens module after the brake mechanism 2 is powered off, so that the system is quick and stable. When shooting state, arrestment mechanism 2 can keep lens module position unchangeable, need not to continue circular telegram and keeps lens module position, avoids the temperature rise of lens module and leads to stability to reduce. In addition, under the condition that does not use equipment, arrestment mechanism 2 keeps the lens module all the time under the outage state, avoids equipment to rock or the striking and produces abnormal sound, influence user experience, also can guarantee the performance of lens module, extension equipment life cycle.
Fig. 2 is a flowchart provided by another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, before the lens module reaches the target position, reducing the current through the actuating mechanism 2 when the lens module approaches the target position so that the actuating mechanism 2 contacts the lens module at step s 1041. Here, the position information of the lens module may be constantly acquired during the operation of the lens module, and the braking mechanism 2 may be brought into contact with the lens module by reducing the current passing through the braking mechanism 2 when the lens module is located close to the target position based on the difference between the real-time position information and the target position, thereby increasing the frictional force between the braking mechanism 2 and the lens module, and thus may play a role of decelerating the lens module. Thus, under the action of the braking mechanism 2, the lens module can reduce the speed more quickly, and the speed reduction control capability of the lens module is improved. Here, the current through the brake mechanism 2 may be gradually reduced as the lens module approaches the target position, i.e., the closer to the target position, the smaller the current through the brake mechanism 2 is, until the reduction is zero.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 6, 8 and 10, the braking mechanism 2 may include a friction portion 21 for contacting the lens module, when the lens module approaches the target position, the current passing through the braking mechanism 2 is reduced to make the friction portion 21 form a first pressure on the lens module, and when the lens module reaches the target position, the braking mechanism 2 is controlled to be de-energized to make the friction portion 21 form a second pressure on the lens module, which is greater than the first pressure. It will be appreciated that the friction portion 21 may be elastically deformed when applying pressure to the lens module, the greater the deformation, the greater the pressure applied to the lens module, i.e. when reducing the current through the brake mechanism 2, the friction portion 21 is slightly elastically deformed, and the first pressure generated may slow down the movement of the lens module without keeping the lens module still. When the brake mechanism 2 is de-energized, the amount of deformation of the friction portion 21 is maximized, and a second pressure greater than the first pressure is generated to hold the lens module. The problem of deceleration and retention of the lens module can be solved well by elastic deformation by providing the friction portion 21, and the contact with the lens module does not cause abrasion to the lens module. The friction part 21 may be made of rubber or other wear-resistant materials, and when the carrier 32, described below, included in the lens module is made of rubber, the friction part 21 may also be made of metal material with elasticity, so as to prevent the friction between the two parts from generating dust, ensure the cleanliness of the device, and avoid dust pollution. In addition, in order to better avoid the friction dust, the friction part 21 may be configured to have a rounded corner, so that the friction part 21 is smoothly and smoothly matched with the lens module.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the actuating mechanism may include an actuating portion mounted on the base 1 and a holding portion 24 for holding the lens module and interlocking with the actuating portion, and the step of controlling the actuating mechanism 2 to be energized to release the lens module includes: controlling the action part to be electrified so as to drive the holding part 24 to release the lens module; the step of controlling the brake mechanism 2 to be de-energized to hold the lens module includes: the control operation unit is powered off to return the holding unit 24 to the position where the lens module is held.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the holding portion 24 may have elasticity, when the actuating portion is powered on, the actuating portion may drive the holding portion 24 to generate elastic deflection, and when the actuating portion is powered off, the holding portion 24 may elastically return. The holding portion 24 may be made of a material having elasticity, and in the power-off state, the holding portion 24 may be pre-pressed on the lens module by a pre-pressure generated by its own elasticity, thereby holding the lens module.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 6, in one embodiment, the actuating portion may be made of a bimetal 22, the holding portion 24 is connected to the bimetal 22, an active layer of the bimetal 22 is disposed on a side close to the lens module, and a passive layer of the bimetal 22 is disposed on a side far from the lens module, and when the temperature rises, the deformation of the active layer is greater than that of the passive layer, so that the whole bimetal 22 is bent to the passive layer side. Therefore, the step of controlling the brake mechanism 2 to be energized to release the lens module includes: controlling the bimetallic strip 22 to be electrified so that the bimetallic strip 22 drives the holding part 24 to bend towards one side of the passive layer; the step of controlling the brake mechanism 2 to be de-energized to hold the lens module includes: the bimetal 22 is controlled to be deenergized, and the bimetal 22 makes the holding portion 24 return to one side of the active layer. Referring to fig. 11, a schematic diagram of the bimetal strip 22 after power-on is shown in dashed lines in fig. 11. According to the characteristics of the bimetallic strip, the temperature rises after the bimetallic strip 22 is electrified, the active layer is bent towards one side of the passive layer, so that the lens module is released, the temperature is reduced after the bimetallic strip 22 is powered off, the active layer can drive the passive layer to return, and the clamping state of the lens module is recovered. When the operating portion is made of a bimetal, the holding portion 24 may be made of a bimetal, and the active layer and the passive layer of the holding portion 24 are disposed in the same manner as the operating portion.
In another embodiment, the operating portion may be made of a shape memory alloy, and the operating portion has a high-temperature phase shape when energized and a low-temperature phase shape when de-energized. In the release position, the operating portion is energized, and the operating portion assumes a high-temperature phase shape that can deflect the holding portion 24 to the side away from the lens module, i.e., a state shown by a broken line in fig. 11; in the holding position, the operation portion is turned off, and the operation portion assumes a low-temperature phase shape that allows the holding portion 24 to return to the side close to the lens module, i.e., a state shown by a solid line in fig. 11.
Based on the above embodiment, as shown in fig. 6, the operating portion may be configured as a U-shaped structure, and connection terminals 23 for connection with the circuit board 6 are formed on both side walls of the U-shaped structure, respectively, for energizing the operating portion. The operation portion may be attached to the base 1 by bonding or hot riveting. The braking mechanism 2 may be disposed vertically as shown in fig. 1, or may be disposed horizontally as shown in fig. 12, and the specific disposition manner of the braking mechanism is not particularly limited in this disclosure.
When the operation part is made of a shape memory alloy, as shown in fig. 8 and 10, in another embodiment, the operation part may include a Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) wire 25 provided at one end of the holding part 24, the SMA wire 25 having a high temperature phase shape that is stretched or contracted at a high temperature and a low temperature phase shape that is opposite to the high temperature phase shape at a low temperature, and the step of controlling the brake mechanism 2 to be energized to release the lens module may include: controlling the SMA wire 25 to be electrified so as to drive the holding part 24 to deflect towards one side far away from the lens module through the high-temperature phase shape of the SMA wire 25; the step of controlling the brake mechanism 2 to be de-energized to hold the lens module includes: the SMA wire 25 is controlled to be powered off to return the holding portion 24 to the side close to the lens module by the low-temperature phase shape of the SMA wire 25. Here, the lens module is described as including the lens 31 and the carrier 32 for mounting the lens 31, and the number of the holding portions 24 may be two to hold the carrier 32. Alternatively, the number of the holding portions 24 may be other than one, and may be only one, and the holding portions may be held on one side of the carrier 32, or may be four, and may be uniformly distributed in the circumferential direction of the carrier 32. In one embodiment, as in the brake mechanism 2 shown in fig. 7 and 8, a first end of the holding portion 24 is provided at a side of the carrier 32 for holding the carrier 32, a second end of the holding portion 24 opposite to the first end is connected with the SMA wire 25, and a region of the holding portion 24 between the first end and the second end is rotatably mounted on the base 1 so that the first end and the second end move in opposite directions. In this way, the holding portion 24 forms a lever structure through a pivot point mounted on the base 1, i.e., when the SMA wire 25 contracts or stretches at the second end, the first end is correspondingly moved. Referring to fig. 13, when the SMA wire 25 is disposed on the side of the second end away from the carrier 32 (i.e., the left side of the SMA wire 25 in the drawing), the SMA wire 25 may be made to assume a stretched high-temperature phase shape after being energized, such that the second end is deflected toward the side close to the carrier 32 (i.e., the right side of the SMA wire 25 in the drawing), and the first end is away from the carrier 32, so as to release the carrier 32, and the SMA wire 25 assumes a contracted low-temperature phase shape after being de-energized, such that the first end is returned to clamp the carrier 32; similarly, referring to fig. 14, fig. 14 is a schematic motion diagram of a braking mechanism according to another embodiment provided by the present disclosure, and a dotted line is a state of the braking mechanism after being powered on, and when the SMA wire 25 is disposed on a side of the second end close to the carrier 32, the SMA wire 25 may be in a contracted high-temperature phase shape after being powered on, so that the first end is away from the carrier 32 while the second end deflects to the side close to the carrier 32, and similarly, the SMA wire returns in the opposite direction, which is not described herein again.
In particular, with continued reference to fig. 14, when the SMA wire 25 is disposed on the side of the second end proximate to the carrier 32 as described above, the second ends of the two holding portions 24 may be connected by the SMA wire 25, as described above, when the SMA wire 25 has a high-temperature phase shape that contracts at high temperatures and a low-temperature phase shape that stretches at low temperatures. The two holding portions 24 can be controlled simultaneously by the same SMA wire 25, so that the control procedure is simplified, and the two holding portions 24 can be operated in unison, thereby ensuring that the holding portions 24 hold the carrier 32 more stably.
Further, as shown in fig. 8 and 14, the carrier 32 may be provided with a first mounting block 321 in a protruding manner, and the first ends of the two holding portions 24 may be clamped on two sides of the first mounting block 321 to facilitate the mounting of the brake mechanism 2. Also, in order to facilitate the installation of the holding parts 24, a second installation block 11 may be formed on the base 1 between the two holding parts 24, and a region of the holding part 24 between the first and second ends may be rotatably installed on the second installation block 11 by a connection plate 241 so that the first and second ends move in opposite directions. Here, in order to facilitate the deflection of the second end, the second mounting block 11 may be formed with an area that is clear of the second end. In one embodiment, referring to fig. 8, the connecting plate 241 may be configured to be bent laterally along the holding portion 24, the connecting plate 241 may be bonded or heat staked to the second mounting block 11, and the holding portion 24 may be made of an elastic material, such as a metal material having elasticity, so that the holding portion 24 has elasticity, and thus the second end may elastically deflect relative to the connecting plate 241. In other words, after the SMA wire 25 is contracted by the power supply, the second end will deflect relative to the connecting plate 241 under the action of the SMA wire 25 and the self elasticity of the holding part 24, and after the SMA wire 25 is cut off, the second end will return under the action of the elasticity, so as to drive the first end to return to hold the lens module. In another embodiment, the holding portion 24 may be connected to the connecting plate 241 by a rotating shaft, so that the first and second ends may be deflected around the rotating shaft. In other embodiments, the connection plate 241 may be omitted, and a protrusion structure may be directly formed on the base 1 to bond or hot rivet the shaft for mounting the holding portion 24.
According to another embodiment of the present disclosure, in addition to the above-mentioned embodiment of the first mounting block 321 in which the holding portions 24 are clamped on the side surface of the carrier 32, the first ends of the two holding portions 24 may be clamped on the opposite side of the carrier 32, specifically, as shown in fig. 9, only one holding portion 24 is provided on one side of the carrier 32, the second end of each holding portion 24 opposite to the first end is rotatably mounted on the base 1, as can be mounted on the base 1 by means of a rotating shaft as described above, or as shown in fig. 10 and 17, a flange is formed at the second end, and the flange is bonded or heat staked on the base 1, and the holding portion 24 is made of an elastic material, so that the holding portion 24 can elastically deflect relative to the flange. One end of the SMA wire 25 is connected to the first end of the holding portion 24, and the other end is fixed to the base 1. The stretched or contracted shape of the SMA wire 25 may then be applied directly to the first end for gripping the carrier 32, making the transfer of its motion more direct and the responsive motion of the holder 24 more rapid.
