  • Publication number: 20200036301
    Abstract: An optical member driving mechanism for driving an optical member having an optical axis is provided, including a fixed portion, a movable portion, a first elastic member, and a driving assembly. The movable portion is configured to hold the optical member, and is movably connected the fixed portion via the first elastic member. The driving assembly drives the movable portion to move along the optical axis within a range of motion. The range of motion includes a first limit moving range and a second limit moving range. The first limit moving range is the maximum distance that the movable portion can move toward the light-entering side, and the second limit moving range is the maximum distance that the movable portion can move toward the light-emitting side. When the movable portion is in a predetermined position, the first limit moving range is greater than the second limit moving range.

  • Publication number: 20190227337
    Abstract: An optical driving mechanism is provided, including a movable portion, a bottom plate and a biasing assembly. The movable portion is configured to sustain an optical element having an optical axis. The bottom plate has a moving member. The biasing assembly has at least one biasing element for driving the movable portion to move relative to the bottom plate. The bottom plate defines a first electrical connection portion and a second electrical connection portion, and the biasing element is connected to the first and second electrical connection portions. The first electrical connection portion has a fixed body, an insulating layer and a conductive layer, which are sequentially overlapped along the optical axis. The conductive layer is directly and electrically connected to the biasing element. When viewed along the optical axis, the insulating layer protrudes from the fixed body and the conductive layer.

  • Publication number: 20190227256
    Abstract: An optical element driving mechanism is provided. The optical element driving mechanism includes a carrier, a base, and a first driving assembly. The carrier holds an optical element with an optical axis. The carrier is movably connected to the base. The first driving assembly drives the carrier to move relative to the base. The first driving assembly includes a driving coil disposed on the carrier, and the direction of the winding axis of the driving coil is different from the direction of the optical axis. The carrier has an abutting surface, which faces and is in direct contact with the driving coil. The maximum size of the abutting surface is greater than the maximum size of the driving coil in the direction of the optical axis.

  • Publication number: 20180284384
    Abstract: A lens driving module for holding and moving a lens is provided, including a lens holder, a first electromagnetic driving assembly disposed on the lens holder, a base, a second electromagnetic driving assembly disposed on the base, and a first elastic member. The lens holder has an accommodating space, and the lens is disposed in the accommodating space. The second electromagnetic driving assembly is adjacent to the first electromagnetic driving assembly. The first elastic member has at least one first fixed portion and at least one moving portion. The first fixed portion is connected to the base, and the first moving portion is connected to the lens holder. The first fixed portion is disposed between the second electromagnetic driving assembly and the base.

  • Publication number: 20180284385
    Abstract: A lens driving module for holding and moving a lens is provided, including a lens holder, a first electromagnetic driving assembly disposed on the lens holder, a base, a second electromagnetic driving assembly disposed on the base, and a first elastic member. The lens holder has an accommodating space and a first surface, and the lens is disposed in the accommodating space. The base has a connecting surface and a first contacting surface. The connecting surface and the first contacting surface are coplanar. The second electromagnetic driving assembly is adjacent to the first electromagnetic driving assembly, and the first elastic member is connected to the connecting surface and the lens holder. When the lens holder contacts the base, the first surface contacts the first contacting surface.
