  • Patent number: 10146028
    Abstract: A zoom/focus apparatus and corresponding zoom lens assembly are provided. The zoom/focus apparatus may include a first focus lens barrel (101), a first zoom lens barrel (102), a first ultrasonic motor and a second ultrasonic motor which are disposed coaxially. The first focus lens barrel and the first zoom lens barrel are radially unmovable. The caliber of the first zoom lens barrel is larger than that of the first focus lens barrel. The two ultrasonic motors are used to drive the two lens barrels to move axially by the rotation of the rotors (103, 104), respectively. Because the zoom lens barrel which needs to be moved is disposed at outside of the focus lens barrel, by driving the lens barrels using the ultrasonic motors, the telescoping of the zoom lens barrel and the adjusting of the zoom position can be achieved simultaneously.

  • Patent number: 9726851
    Abstract: A voice coil motor and a corresponding focusing lens. A rotor assembly (22) is connected to a stator assembly (21) by means of an elastic connecting piece (23). A stator sleeve (211) is sleeved on a rotor sleeve (221). One of the stator sleeve (211) and the rotor sleeve (221) is a permanent magnetic material sleeve, and the other is a non-magnetic material sleeve. An assembly to which the non-magnetic material sleeve belongs also comprises a pre-magnetic element (222) and a drive coil (223). The premagnetic element (222) is made of a permanent magnetic or magnetized material, and is fixed relative to the non-magnetic material sleeve. The elastic connecting piece (23) is in a force balance state in a case without power because of pre-existing magnetic force between the pre-magnetic element (222) and the permanent magnetic material sleeve. Smaller electromagnetic force is required for driving the elastic connecting piece (23) to move, thereby reducing a drive current and power consumption.

  • Publication number: 20170205942
    Abstract: A touch type input apparatus may include a touch panel (110) and a substrate (120). The touch panel may be transparent. The substrate may be located beneath the touch panel and formed as a photoelectric conversion device. The substrate may be used to supply electricity to the input apparatus or external equipment. The touch panel may include at least one key area (111). The input signal generated by the touch operation of the user in each key area may be the key signal corresponding to the key area, and the icon (130) which is used to represent the key area may be arranged on the surface of the touch panel or the substrate. Because the photoelectric conversion device is used as the substrate of the transparent touch panel, on one hand, the occupancy of the input interface on the display interface is avoided; on the other hand, the input apparatus can be self-powered and even supply electricity to other equipments, and thereby the power source issue of the input apparatus is cleverly solved.

  • Publication number: 20170075019
    Abstract: A method for determining a capacitance value of a capacitive sensor begins by applying a sensor signal (Vx) to the capacitive sensor. The sensor signal (Vx) includes a number of charge-discharge pulse pairs distributed over a first period of time (T/N), with each pulse pair having a different pulse period. The method then proceeds by accumulating a number (N) of samples of a reference voltage (Vs) measured across a reference capacitor (Cs) that is coupled to the capacitive sensor over a second period of time (T) to produce an accumulated capacitance value (ACCUMULATED). The accumulated capacitance value (ACCUMULATED) is then divided by the number (N) of the samples to determine the capacitance value (Cx) of the capacitive sensor.
