FIG. 5B is a plan view of the sensor substrate 180 FIG. 5C is a rear perspective view of the first sensor 170 and the sensor substrate 180 shown in FIG. 4 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to the drawings, the bobbin 110 may be installed in the inner space of the housing 140 so as to reciprocate in a first direction that is the optical axis direction or a direction that is parallel to the first direction. A first coil 120 is installed on the outer circumferential surface of the bobbin 110 as illustrated in FIG. 4 so that the first coil 120 and the magnet 130 can perform electromagnetic interaction. To this end, the magnet 130 may be disposed opposite the first coil 120 at the periphery of the bobbin 110.

When the bobbin 110 is raised and / or lowered in a first direction parallel to the optical axis or in a direction parallel to the first direction to perform the auto focusing function, the upper and lower elastic members 150, Lt; / RTI > For this purpose, the upper and lower elastic members 150 and 160 may be combined with the bobbin 110 and the housing 140 as described later.

Although not shown, the lens driving device may include a lens barrel (not shown) on the inner side (i.e., inside) of the bobbin 110 where at least one lens may be installed. The lens barrel may be installed inside the bobbin 110 in various ways. For example, the lens barrel may be directly fixed to the inside of the bobbin 110, or a single lens may be formed integrally with the bobbin 110 without a lens barrel. The lens coupled to the lens barrel may be composed of a single sheet or two or more lenses may be configured to form an optical system.

According to another embodiment, male threads are formed on the inner circumferential surface of the bobbin 110, male screw threads corresponding to female threads are formed on the outer circumferential surface of the lens barrel, and the lens barrel is connected to the bobbin 110, but the embodiment is not so limited.

The bobbin 110 may include first and second protrusions 111 and 112.

The first protrusion 111 may include a guide portion 111a and a first stopper 111b. The guide portion 111a may serve to guide the installation position of the upper elastic member 150. [ For example, as illustrated in FIG. 3, the guide portion 111a can guide the passage of the upper frame connecting portion 153 of the upper elastic member 150 through. To this end, according to the embodiment, the plurality of guide portions 111a may be protruded in the second and third directions perpendicular to the first direction. Further, as illustrated, the guide portion 111a may be provided symmetrically with respect to the center of the bobbin 110 on a plane formed by the x-axis and the y-axis, and interference with other components may be excluded As shown in FIG.

The second protrusion 112 may protrude in the second and third directions perpendicular to the first direction. The upper surface 112a of the second protrusion 112 may have a shape capable of receiving the first inner frame 151 of the upper elastic member 150 described later.

Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the housing 140 according to the embodiment, and Fig. 7 is an exploded perspective view of the bottom surface of the housing 140 and the magnet 130 according to the embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 6, the housing 140 may include a first seating groove 146 formed at a position corresponding to the first and second protrusions 111 and 112.

The first stopper 111b and the second protrusion 112 of the first protrusion 111 are arranged in a first direction parallel to the optical axis or in a direction parallel to the first direction for the auto focusing function of the bobbin 110 It is possible to prevent the bottom surface of the bobbin 110 from directly colliding with the upper surface of the base 210 and the upper surface of the circuit board 250 even if the bobbin 110 moves over a prescribed range due to an external impact or the like Can play a role. The first stopper 111b may protrude from the outer circumferential surface of the bobbin 110 in the second or third direction in the circumferential direction more than the guide portion 111a, And may protrude laterally from an upper surface 112a on which the second electrode 150 is seated.

6, when the bottom surface of the first and second protrusions 111 and 112 and the bottom surface 146a of the first seating groove 146 are in contact with each other at an initial position, Directional control in a voice coil motor (VCM). That is, when the current is supplied to the first coil 120, the bobbin 110 rises, and when the supply of current is interrupted, the bobbin 120 falls and an auto-focusing function can be realized.

However, if the bottom surface of the first and second protrusions 111 and 112 and the bottom surface 146a of the first seating groove 146 are spaced a predetermined distance apart from each other at an initial position, It can be controlled according to the direction of the current, such as bi-directional control in the motor. That is, the autofocusing function may be realized by moving the bobbin 110 in the upward or downward direction parallel to the optical axis. For example, when the forward current is applied, the bobbin 110 can move upward, and when the reverse current is applied, the bobbin 110 can move downward.

The third protrusion 148 of the housing 140 may be convexly formed at the position of the housing 140 corresponding to the space having the first width W1 between the first and second protrusions 111 and 112 . The surface of the third protrusion 148 facing the bobbin 110 may have the same shape as the side surface of the bobbin 110. At this time, the first width W1 between the first and second protrusions 111 and 112 shown in FIG. 4 and the second width W2 of the third protrusion 148 shown in FIG. 6 have a certain tolerance . As a result, rotation of the third projection 148 between the first and second projections 111 and 112 can be restricted. Then, even if the bobbin 110 is subjected to a force in the direction of rotating about the optical axis other than the optical axis direction, the third protrusion 148 can prevent the bobbin 110 from rotating.

According to the embodiment, the first sensor 170 may be disposed on, bonded to, or mounted on the bobbin 110 to move together with the bobbin 110. The first sensor 170 senses displacement of the bobbin 110 in a first direction parallel to the optical axis or in a direction parallel to the first direction, and outputs the sensed result as a feedback signal. The bobbin 110 is moved in the first direction or in a direction parallel to the first direction by using the result of sensing the displacement of the bobbin 110 in the first direction or in the direction parallel to the first direction, Displacement can be adjusted.

The first sensor 170 may be disposed, bonded, or mounted on the bobbin 110 or the housing 140 in various forms and may be mounted on the first sensor 170 according to the manner in which the first sensor 170 is placed, 170 may be supplied with current in various ways.

According to an embodiment, a separate sensor magnet (not shown) facing the first sensor 170 may be disposed on the bobbin 110 by fastening the first sensor 170 to the housing 140. The first sensor 170 may be disposed on the side surface or edge of the first seating groove 146 of the housing 140 illustrated in Fig. 6 (e.g., the surface of the third projection 148) . In this case, due to the magnetic force exerted by the magnet for the sensor on the magnet 130, tilting occurs in the bobbin 110 moving in the first direction or the direction parallel to the first direction, and the accuracy of the feedback signal Can be degraded. In consideration of this, a separate sensor magnet may be disposed, coupled, or mounted on the bobbin 110 where the mutual action of the magnet for the sensor and the magnet 130 is minimized.

According to another embodiment, the first sensor 170 may be disposed, bonded, or mounted directly on the outer circumferential surface of the bobbin 110. In this case, a surface electrode (not shown) is formed on the outer circumferential surface of the bobbin 110, and the first sensor 170 can receive a current through the surface electrode.

According to yet another embodiment, the first sensor 170 may be indirectly disposed, coupled, or mounted to the bobbin 110 as shown. For example, the first sensor 170 may be disposed, coupled, or mounted on the sensor substrate 180, and the sensor substrate 180 may be coupled to the bobbin 110. That is, the first sensor 170 may be indirectly disposed, coupled, or mounted on the bobbin 110 through the sensor substrate 180.

When the first sensor 170 is disposed directly or indirectly to the bobbin 110 as in the above-described other embodiments and another embodiment, the magnet for the sensor may be disposed separately from the magnet 130, 130 may be used as the magnet for the sensor.

The support groove 114 may be provided between the outer circumferential surface of the bobbin 110 and the first and second projections 111 and 112. At this time, the first sensor 170 may have a shape that can be arranged, joined, or mounted on the sensor substrate 180. 4 and 5B, the first sensor 170 may be arranged in various forms on the upper side A1, the middle A2 or the lower side A3 of the outer circumferential surface of the sensor substrate 180, for example, Bonded, or mounted. At this time, the first sensor 170 can receive a current from the outside through the circuit of the sensor substrate 180. For example, as illustrated in FIG. 5B, a mounting groove 183 is formed on the outer circumferential surface of the sensor substrate 180, and the first sensor 170 can be disposed, coupled, or mounted in the mounting groove 183 have. A tapered inclined surface (not shown) may be formed on at least one surface of the mounting groove 183 so that epoxy injection or the like for assembling the first sensor 170 can be performed more smoothly. In addition, although epoxy or the like may not be injected into the mounting groove 183, it is also possible to increase the arrangement force, bonding force, or mounting force of the first sensor 170 by injecting epoxy or the like.

Alternatively, as illustrated in FIG. 4, the first sensor 170 may be attached to the front surface of the sensor substrate 180 using an adhesive such as epoxy or double-sided tape.

The bobbin 110 may include a receiving groove 116 adapted to receive a first sensor 170 disposed, bonded, or mounted on a sensor substrate 180. Further, the receiving groove 116 may be formed in the space between the first and second protrusions 111 and 112.

The sensor substrate 180 may include a body 182, elastic member contacts 184-1, 184-2, 184-3 and 184-4 and circuit patterns L1, L2, L3 and L4.

As illustrated in Figs. 3-5A, the support groove 114 and the body 182 may have a circular planar shape, although embodiments are not limited in this respect. According to another embodiment, the support groove 114 and the body 182 may have a polygonal planar shape.

The body 182 of the sensor substrate 180 may include a first segment 170 disposed on, coupled with, or mounted to the outer surface of the sensor substrate 180, and a second segment extending in contact with the first segment. The sensor substrate 180 may be easily inserted into the support groove 114 by providing an opening 181 at a portion facing the first segment, Lt; / RTI >

The elastic member abutting portions 184-1, 184-2, 184-3, and 184-4 may be disposed in a direction that can contact the first inner frame 151 from the body 182, for example, And may protrude in a direction parallel to the first direction. The elastic member contacts 184-1, 184-2, 184-3, and 184-4 are portions to be connected to the first inner frame 151 of the upper elastic member 150 described later.

For example, the first sensor 170 may be a hall sensor, and any sensor capable of detecting a change in magnetic force may be used.

If the first sensor 170 is implemented as a Hall sensor, the Hall sensor 170 may have a plurality of pins. For example, the plurality of pins may include first and second pins. For example, referring to FIG. 5C, the first pin may include a 1-1 pin (P11) and a 1-2 pin (P12) connected to a voltage and a ground, respectively, And a second-1-pin P21 and a second-2-pin P22 for outputting the result.

11 shows a bottom perspective view in which the bobbin 110, the housing 140, the lower elastic member 160, and the plurality of support members 220 are combined.

The first coil 120 is wound on the outer circumferential surface of the bobbin 110 by a worker or a machine and then the lines of sight and the longitudinal lines of both ends of the first coil 120 extend from the bottom surface of the bobbin 110 in the first direction And can be wound and fixed on a pair of protruding winding projections 119. At this time, the position of the end of the first coil 120 wound around the winding projection 119 may vary depending on the operator. As illustrated in Fig. 11, the winding projections 119 may be arranged at a pair of positions symmetrical with respect to the center of the bobbin 110, but the embodiments are not limited thereto.

The first coil 120 may be inserted into the coil groove 118 formed on the outer side of the bobbin 110 as illustrated in FIG. In addition, as illustrated in FIG. 2, the first coil 120 may be provided as an angular ring-shaped coil block, but is not limited thereto. According to another embodiment, the first coil 120 may be directly wound on the outer circumferential surface of the bobbin 110, or may be wound using a coil ring (not shown). Here, the coil ring may be coupled to the bobbin 110 in the same manner that the sensor substrate 180 is fitted and fixed to the support groove 114, and the first coil 120 is wound on the outer side of the bobbin 110 It can be wound on the coil ring instead of being disposed. In any case, the line of sight and the vertical line of the first coil 120 can be wound and fixed on the winding projection 119, and the other structures are the same.

The first coil 120 may be formed in a substantially octagonal shape as shown in FIG. This corresponds to the shape of the outer peripheral surface of the bobbin 110 because the bobbin 110 has an octagonal shape as illustrated in FIG. 5A. In addition, at least four surfaces of the first coil 120 may be formed in a straight line, and corner portions connecting these surfaces may be provided in a straight line, but the present invention is not limited thereto and may be formed in a round shape.

The portion formed linearly in the first coil 120 may be formed to be a surface corresponding to the magnet 130. The surface of the magnet 130 corresponding to the first coil 120 may have the same curvature as the curvature of the first coil 120. That is, if the first coil 120 is a straight line, the surface of the corresponding magnet 130 may be straight, and if the first coil 120 is a curved line, the surface of the corresponding magnet 130 may be curved. Further, even if the first coil 120 is a curved line, the surface of the corresponding magnet 130 may be straight or vice versa.

The first coil 120 moves the bobbin 110 in a first direction parallel to the optical axis or in a direction parallel to the first direction so as to perform an autofocus function. When the current is supplied, the first coil 120 interacts with the magnet 130 And the generated electromagnetic force can move the bobbin 110 in the first direction or in the direction parallel to the first direction.

The first coil 120 may be configured to correspond to the magnet 130. If the magnet 130 is formed as a single body and the entire surface facing the first coil 120 is provided with the same polarity, 1 coil 120 may also be configured such that the surface of magnet 130 and the corresponding surface have the same polarity.

Alternatively, when the magnet 130 is divided into two or more by two or four divisions on a plane perpendicular to the optical axis and two or more faces facing the first coil 120 are divided, the first coil 120 is also divided (130).

The magnet 130 may be installed at a position corresponding to the first coil 120. For example, referring to FIG. 8, the magnet 130 may be disposed to face the first coil 170 while facing the first sensor 170. This is because, as described above, according to one embodiment, the magnet for the first sensor 170 is not disposed separately but the magnet 130 is used as the magnet for the first sensor 170.

In this case, the magnet 130 may be received and supported by the first side 141 of the housing 140 as shown in FIG. The shape of the magnet 130 may correspond to the first side 141 of the housing 140 and may have a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape and a surface of the magnet 130 facing the first coil 120 may have a shape corresponding to that of the first coil 120 It can be formed so as to correspond to the curvature of the surface.

Referring to FIG. 5A, the magnet 130 may be formed as a single body. In this embodiment, the S pole 132 and the N pole 134 facing the first coil 120 and the N pole 134, respectively, Can be deployed.

In the case of the embodiment, one each may be provided on the four first side portions 141 of the housing 140. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and only one of the magnet 130 and the first coil 120 may be planar and the other may be curved. Or both surfaces of the first coil 120 and the magnet 130 may be curved and the curvatures of the first coil 120 and the magnet 130 facing each other may be the same.

5A, if the plane of the magnet 130 is rectangular, a pair of the plurality of magnets 130 may be arranged in parallel in the second direction, and the other pair may be arranged in parallel in the third direction . According to such an arrangement structure, it is possible to control the movement of the housing 140 for correcting camera shake, which will be described later.

6, the upper side of the outer periphery of the housing 140 may have a rectangular planar shape, but may have a rectangular shape as illustrated in FIGS. 6 and 7, Likewise, the lower side of the inner margin can have an octagonal planar shape. Thus, the housing 140 may include a plurality of sides and may include, for example, four first side portions 141 and four second side portions 142.

The first side 141 corresponds to a portion where the magnet 130 is installed and the second side 142 corresponds to a portion where a support member 220 to be described later is disposed. The first side 141 interconnects the plurality of second sides 142 and may include a plane of constant depth.

According to the embodiment, the first side 141 may be formed in an area corresponding to the magnet 130 or larger. Referring to FIG. 7, the magnet 130 may be fixed to a magnet seating portion 141a formed at an inner lower portion of the first side 141. The magnet seating portion 141a may be formed as a groove corresponding to the size of the magnet 130. At least three surfaces, that is, both the side surfaces and the upper surface may be disposed so as to face the magnet 130. [ An opening may be formed on the bottom surface of the magnet seating portion 141a, that is, a surface facing the second coil 230 to be described later, so that the bottom surface of the magnet 130 may be formed to directly face the second coil 230 .

The magnet 130 may be fixed to the magnet seating part 141a with an adhesive, but not limited thereto, and an adhesive member such as a double-sided tape may be used. Alternatively, instead of forming the magnet seating portion 141a as a concave groove as shown in FIG. 7, a mounting hole may be formed in which a part of the magnet 130 can be exposed or fitted.

The first side 141 may be disposed parallel to the side surface of the cover member 300. Also, the first side 141 may be formed to have a larger surface than the second side 142. The second side 142 may form a path through which the support member 220 passes. The upper portion of the second side 142 may include a first through hole 147. The support member 220 may be connected to the upper elastic member 150 through the first through hole 147.

In addition, the housing 140 may further include a second stopper 144. The second stopper 144 can prevent the body-side surface of the housing 140 from directly colliding with the inner surface of the cover member 300 shown in Fig.

In addition, a plurality of first upper support protrusions 143 may protrude from the upper surface of the second side 142 of the housing 140.

However, the embodiment is not limited to the shape of the first upper support protuberance 143 Do not.

6 and 7, the reason that the first groove 142a is formed in the second side 142 of the housing 140 is not only to form a passage through which the support member 220 passes, In order to secure a space for filling the gel-type silicon that can serve. That is, the groove 142a may be filled with damping silicon.

At this time, the number of the second lower support protrusions 145 may be larger than the number of the first lower support protrusions 117. This is because the length of the second frame connecting portion 163-2 of the lower elastic member 160 is longer than the length of the first frame connecting portion 163-1.

As described above, since the lower elastic member 160 has a structure divided into two, the number of the first and second lower support protrusions 117 and 145 is sufficient as well as the number of the first upper support protrusions 143 It is possible to prevent the lifting phenomenon that may occur when the lower elastic member 160 is separated.

If the lower elastic member 160 is formed as a body rather than a divided structure, it is not necessary to form as many first and second lower support protrusions 117 and 145 as the first upper support protrusions 143. This is because the lower elastic member 160 can be stably coupled to the housing 140 with only a small number of the first and second lower support protrusions 117 and 145. [

However, as in the embodiment, when the lower elastic members 160 are separated into the first and second lower elastic members 160-1 and 160-2 so as not to be electrically connected to each other, In order to fix the lower elastic members 160-1 and 160-2, a sufficient number of the first and second lower support protrusions 117 and 145 may be provided. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the first and second lower elastic members 160-1 and 160-2 and the housing 140 from being incompletely engaged.

11, the first and second lower support protrusions 117 and 145 may have a hemispherical shape like the first upper support protrusions 143, but may have a cylindrical shape or a prismatic shape . However, the embodiment is not limited to the shapes of the first and second lower support protrusions 117 and 145.

At this time, the first lower support protrusions 117 and the third through holes 161a may be fixed by heat fusion, and they may be fixed by an adhesive member such as an epoxy or the like.

At the positions corresponding to the second lower support protrusions 145 in the second outer frames 162-1 and 162-2 of the first and second lower elastic members 160-1 and 160-2, A through hole 162a can be formed. At this time, the second lower support protrusions 145 and the fourth through holes 162a may be fixed by heat fusion or may be fixed with an adhesive such as epoxy.

Further, the distance between the plurality of first and second lower support protrusions 117, 145 can be appropriately arranged within a range in which interference with peripheral components can be avoided. That is, the first and second lower support protrusions 117 and 145 may be symmetrically arranged with respect to the center of the bobbin 110 at regular intervals.

Each of the upper elastic member 150 and the lower elastic member 160 may be formed of a leaf spring, but the embodiment is not limited to the material of the upper and lower elastic members 150 and 160.

Meanwhile, the bobbin 110, the housing 140, and the upper and lower elastic members 150 and 160 may be assembled through heat bonding and / or bonding using an adhesive or the like. At this time, it is possible to finish the fixing work by bonding using the adhesive after fixing by thermal fusion according to the assembling order.

For example, first, the bobbin 110 and the second inner frames 161-1 and 161-2 of the lower elastic member 160 are assembled, and the second inner frame 161-1 and 161-2 of the lower elastic member 160 are assembled. When assembling the two outer frames 162-1 and 162-2, the first lower support protrusion 117 of the bobbin 110 and the third through hole 161a coupled to the bobbin 110 and the housing 140 2 lower support protrusion 145 and the fourth through hole 162a coupled with the lower support protrusion 145 can be fixed by heat fusion. Third, when the first inner frame 151 of the upper elastic member 150 is first assembled, the elastic member contacts 184-1, 184-2, 184-3, and 184-4 of the sensor substrate 180 The first inner frame 151 of each of the first to fourth upper elastic members 150-1, 150-2, 150-3, and 150-4 may be fixed by heat fusion. The first and second outer frames 152a, 152b and 155 of the housing 140 and the upper elastic member 150 are fixed to the first upper side support 152 of the housing 140, The second through hole 157 coupled with the projection 143 can be bonded and bonded by applying an adhesive such as epoxy. However, this assembling sequence can be changed, that is, the assembly process from the first to the third is thermal fusion, and the final fourth bonding is performed. This can be accompanied by deformation such as twisting at the time of heat fusion, so that bonding can be supplemented in the last step.

In the case of the above-described embodiment, power is supplied to the first sensor 170 by using two electrically-upper elastic members 160, and the feedback signal output from the first sensor 170 is supplied to the other It is possible to supply power to the first coil 120 by using two upper elastic members 150 to be transmitted to the circuit board 250 and using two lower elastic members 160 electrically separated from each other.

The at least one second outer frame may include a plurality of second outer frames, and each of the first and second upper elastic members may further include a second 2-frame connection portion connecting the plurality of second outer frames.

The lower and upper elastic members are formed in a direction orthogonal to the first direction and are coupled with the housing 140 And a first and second outer frame connected to the support member 220.

3, 6, 7, 10, and 11, a plurality of third stoppers 149 may protrude from the side surface of the housing 140. Referring to FIGS. The third stopper 149 is provided to prevent collision between the cover member 300 and the body of the housing 140 when the first lens driving unit is moved in the second and third directions. It is possible to prevent the side surface from directly colliding with the inner surface of the cover member 300. 3, the third stopper 149 is spaced apart from the outer surface of the housing 140 by two, but the embodiment is not limited to the position and number of the third stopper 149.

Although not shown, a fourth stopper may be additionally disposed on the lower side of the housing 140. The fourth stopper may protrude from the lower surface of the housing 140. The fourth stopper can prevent the bottom surface of the housing 140 from colliding with the base 210 and / or the circuit board 250, which will be described later. In addition, the fourth stopper may maintain a predetermined distance from the base 210 and / or the circuit board 250 during an initial state and a normal operation. With this configuration, the housing 140 can be spaced apart from the base 210 downward, and spaced apart from the cover member 300 at the upper side, so that the height in the optical axis direction can be maintained without vertical interference. Accordingly, the housing 140 may perform a shifting operation in the second and third directions, which are forward and backward left and right directions, in a plane perpendicular to the optical axis.

The first lens driving unit according to the embodiment uses the first sensor 170 to sense the position in the first direction of the z axis which is the optical axis direction of the bobbin 110 or in the direction parallel to the first direction, Can be precisely controlled. This may be possible by feeding the sensed position of the first sensor 170 to the outside through the circuit board 250.

According to one embodiment, in order to move the bobbin 110 in a first direction that is the optical axis direction or in a direction parallel to the first direction, a magnet 130 (hereinafter referred to as' A magnet (hereinafter referred to as 'sensing magnet') (not shown) facing the first sensor 170 may be additionally disposed. At this time, the interaction between the AF magnet 130 and the first coil 120 may be interrupted by the sensing magnet. This is because a magnetic field can be caused by the sensing magnet. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the bobbin 110 from being tilted by causing the sensing magnet, which is disposed separately, not to interact with the AF magnet 130 or with the AF magnet 130, 170 may be arranged to face a separate sensing magnet. In this case, the first sensor 170 may be disposed, coupled, or mounted on the bobbin 110, and the sensing magnet may be disposed, coupled, or mounted on the housing 140. Alternatively, the first sensor 170 may be disposed, coupled, or mounted on the housing 140, and the sensing magnet may be disposed, coupled, or mounted on the bobbin 110.

According to another embodiment, instead of disposing the sensing magnet separately, the AF magnet may be used as the sensing magnet to move the bobbin 110 in the first direction which is the optical axis direction or in the direction parallel to the first direction . For example, the first sensor 170 may be disposed on, coupled with, or mounted on the bobbin 110 without being disposed on the housing 140 so that the AF magnet 130 may also serve as a sensing magnet. (Not shown). Therefore, when the AF magnet and the sensing magnet coexist, the problem caused by the interaction between the two magnets can be solved at the source. For example, the need for a magnetic field compensating metal (not shown) to minimize the interaction between the magnet for AF and the sensing magnet can be eliminated.

The first lens driving unit may further include various devices for improving the auto focusing function of the first lens driving unit in addition to the first sensor 170. [ In this case, the method or the process of receiving the power via the circuit board 250 and supplying the feedback signal to the circuit board 250 may be the same as the first sensor 170.

2, the second lens driving unit includes a first lens driving unit, a base 210, a plurality of supporting members 220, a second coil 230 , A second sensor 240, and a circuit board 250. [

The first lens driving unit may have the configuration as described above, but may be replaced with an optical system that implements another type of auto focusing function in addition to the configuration described above. That is, instead of using the voice coil motor type auto focusing actuator, a single lens moving actuator or an optical module using a refractive index variable actuator may be used. That is, the first lens driving unit may be any optical actuator capable of performing the auto focusing function. However, the magnet 130 needs to be provided at a position corresponding to the second coil 230, which will be described later.

13 shows an exploded perspective view of the base 210, the second coil 230, and the circuit board 250. Fig.

First, the base 210 of the second lens driving unit may have a substantially rectangular planar shape, as illustrated in Figs. 2 and 13. When the cover member 300 is adhered and fixed to the base 210, the step 211 may be formed as illustrated in FIG. 13 so that the adhesive can be applied. At this time, the step 211 can guide the cover member 300 coupled to the upper side, and the end of the cover member 300 can be coupled so as to be in surface contact. The end portions of the step 211 and the cover member 300 can be adhesively fixed and sealed with an adhesive or the like.

The base 210 may be disposed at a predetermined distance from the first lens driving unit. A receiving portion 255 having a size corresponding to the surface of the base 210 facing the portion of the circuit board 250 on which the terminal 251 is formed may be formed. The support portion 255 may be formed to have a constant cross-section from the outer surface of the base 210 without the step 211 so that the terminal surface 253 formed with the terminal 251 is supported.

The edge of the base 210 has a second groove 212. When the edge of the cover member 300 has a protruding shape, the protrusion of the cover member 300 can be fastened to the base 210 in the second groove 212.

In addition, second seating recesses 215-1 and 215-2, on which the second sensor 240 can be disposed, may be provided on the upper surface of the base 210. [ According to the embodiment, a total of two second seating recesses 215-1 and 215-2 are provided, and the second sensor 240 is disposed in each of the second seating recesses 215-1 and 215-2, It is possible to detect the degree of the movement of the movable member 140 in the second direction and the third direction. To this end, the second seating recesses 215-1 and 215-2 and the second seating recesses 215-1 and 215-2 are formed such that the angle formed by imaginary lines connecting the centers of the base 210 and the second seating recesses 215-1 and 215-2 is 90 °. ) Can be disposed.

At least one surface of the second seating grooves 215-1 and 215-2 may be formed with a tapered inclined surface (not shown). Epoxy injection for assembling the second sensor 240 can be performed more smoothly. Further, although no epoxy or the like may be injected into the second seating grooves 215-1 and 215-2, the second sensor 240 may be fixed by injecting epoxy or the like. The positions of the second seating grooves 215-1 and 215-2 may be disposed near the center or the center of the second coil 230. [ Alternatively, the center of the second coil 230 may be aligned with the center of the second sensor 240. According to the embodiment, the second seating recesses 215-1 and 215-2 may be provided at the side portions of the base 210. [

A groove portion is formed at a position corresponding to the step 211 of the cover member 300, and an adhesive or the like can be injected through the groove portion. At this time, the adhesive to be injected is set to have a low viscosity, so that the adhesive injected through the groove can penetrate the surface contact position of the step 211 and the end portion of the cover member 300. The adhesive member applied to the groove portion hits the gap between the facing surfaces of the cover member 300 and the base 210 through the groove portion so that the cover member 300 is coupled with the base 210 It can be configured to be sealed.

In addition, a seating part (not shown) on which a filter is installed may be formed on a lower surface of the base 210. Such a filter may be an infrared cut filter. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and a filter may be disposed in a separate sensor holder under the base 210. Also, as will be described later, a sensor substrate on which an image sensor is mounted may be coupled to a lower surface of the base 210 to form a camera module.

A plurality of support members 220 may be disposed on the second side 142 of the housing 140, respectively. For example, as described above, when the housing 140 has a polygonal plan shape, the number of the second side portions 142 of the housing 140 may be plural. If the inner bottom of the housing 140 has an octagonal bottom face, the plurality of support members 220 may be disposed on the second side 142 of the eight sides. For example, two support members 220 may be disposed on each of the four second side portions 142 so that a total of eight support members 220 may be provided.

Alternatively, only one support member 220 is disposed on each of the two second side portions 142 of the four second side portions 142 in the housing 140, and two support members 220 are provided on each of the remaining two second side portions 142 A supporting member 220 may be disposed, and a total of six supporting members 220 may be provided.

The support member 220 forms a path for transmitting power required by the first sensor 170 and the first coil 120 as described above and outputs a feedback signal output from the first sensor 170 to the circuit board 250, respectively.

In addition, since the support member 220 restores the original position after the housing 140 moves in the second and third directions in the first lens driving unit, the same number of support members 220 The elastic modulus K can be balanced. That is, when the housing 140 is moved in the second and / or third direction, which is a plane perpendicular to the optical axis, the support member 220 is moved in the direction in which the housing 140 moves, or in the longitudinal direction of the support member 220 It can be elastically deformed. Here, the longitudinal direction may be a direction connecting the upper end and the lower end of each wire of the support member 220. In this case, the housing 140 can move in the second and third directions, which are planes substantially perpendicular to the optical axis, with almost no change in position in the first direction parallel to the optical axis, thereby improving the accuracy of the camera shake correction. This is based on the property that the support member 220 can extend in the longitudinal direction

For example, as illustrated in FIG. 12, the four first through fourth supporting members 220-1, 220-2, 220-3, and 220-4 may be formed of four sides of the housing 140 Two housings 140 can be supported at a distance from the base 210 by a predetermined distance.

However, it is not limited thereto. That is, the shapes and the numbers of the plurality of support members 220 may be determined to be symmetrical with respect to each other in a direction perpendicular to the first direction, for example, in the second and third directions. In consideration of the aforementioned elastic modulus, the number of the support members 220 may be eight, as described above.

In the above example, the support member 220 is implemented in the form of a suspension wire without a certain pattern, but the embodiment is not limited thereto.

13, a total of four second coils 230 may be provided on four sides of the circuit board 250, but the present invention is not limited thereto, Only one for three directions, or two or more, may be installed. A circuit pattern may be formed on the circuit board 250 in the form of a second coil 230 and a separate second coil 230 may be disposed on the circuit board 250. However, Only a separate second coil 230 may be disposed on the circuit board 250 without forming a circuit pattern on the circuit board 250 in the form of the second coil 230. [ Alternatively, the second coil 230 may be formed by winding the wire in a donut shape, or may be electrically connected to the circuit board 250 by forming the second coil 230 in the form of an FP coil.

The circuit member 231 including the second coil 230 may be installed on the upper surface of the circuit board 250 disposed on the upper side of the base 210. However, the second coil 230 may be disposed in close contact with the base 210, may be spaced apart from the base 210, may be formed on a separate substrate, may be stacked on the circuit board 250 have.

The camera shake correction can be performed by moving the housing 140 in the second and / or third directions by the interaction of the magnet 130 and the second coil 230 arranged to face each other as described above. To this end, the first to fourth support members 220 described above can movably support the housing 140 in the second and third directions perpendicular to the first direction with respect to the base 210.

On the other hand, the second sensor 240 can sense the displacement of the first lens driving unit with respect to the base 210 in the second and third directions orthogonal to the optical axis. To this end, the second sensor 240 may be disposed on the center side of the second coil 230 with the circuit board 250 interposed therebetween to sense movement of the housing 140. That is, the second sensor 240 is not directly connected to the second coil 230.
