  • Patent number: 11997793
    Abstract: An optical unit includes a movable body including an optical module, a fixed body, a support mechanism, a flexible printed circuit board, and a positioning part. A bent part of the flexible printed circuit board has a first bent portion closest to a connection part between the connection part and the positioning part along an extension direction, and a second bent portion close to the connection part next to the first bent portion between the connection part and the positioning part along the extension direction. The second bent portion is located on a reference plane or on a side different from the side where the connection part is located with respect to the reference plane.

  • Publication number: 20230099047
    Abstract: A circuit board includes a first wiring board, a second wiring board connected to the first wiring board, a third wiring board connected to the first wiring board, a connector, and an external terminal connector. A different-direction reference portion of the third wiring board extends in a direction different from an extending direction of a reference portion of the second wiring board between a first end of the third wiring board and a second end of the third wiring board. The connector electrically connects any portion between the reference portion and the second end of the second wiring board and any portion between the different-direction reference portion and the second end of the third wiring board.
