Patent number: 11130299Abstract: To suppress occurrence of contamination or damage to a lens. In the present technology, for example, a manufacturing apparatus allows a spacer which is thicker than a height of a lens resin portion protruded from a substrate to be adhered to the substrate. In addition, for example, in the present technology, the manufacturing apparatus molds the lens resin portion inside a through-hole formed in the substrate by using a mold frame configured with two layers of molds and, after molding the lens resin portion, in the state that one mold is adhered to the substrate, the manufacturing apparatus demolds the substrate from the other mold.
