In the following, some embodiments of the disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.



FIG. 1 illustrates an embodiment of an electronic equipment 200. The electronic equipment 200 includes a main body 201 and a camera device 100 mounted in the main body 201 for taking photos and videos. In at least one embodiment, the camera device 100 may be mounted on the front of the main body 201 or the back of the main body 201. In at least one embodiment, the camera device 100 may be received in the main body 201 in a retractable manner.


Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the camera device 100 includes a lens assembly 10, a bearing assembly 20, and a substrate assembly 30. The bearing assembly 20 connects the lens assembly 10 and the substrate assembly 30. The substrate assembly 30 is connected to the main body 201.


Referring to FIG. 3, the lens assembly 10 includes a lens 11 and an adjusting mechanism 12. The lens 11 is installed on the adjusting mechanism 12. In at least one embodiment, the adjusting mechanism 12 may be voice coil motor used to adjust the position of the lens 11 to realize an auto-focus function to present a clear image. In at least one embodiment, the adjusting mechanism 12 is covered by a cushioning foam (not shown).


The bearing assembly 20 includes a bearing base 21, a first adhesive layer 22, a filter 23, and a second adhesive layer 24. The filter 23 is mounted in the bearing base 21. The first adhesive layer 22 and the second adhesive layer 24 are respectively located on opposite sides of the bearing base 21. The first adhesive layer 22 is connected to the substrate assembly 30, and the second adhesive layer 24 is connected to the adjusting mechanism 12.


Referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, a through groove 211 penetrates the bearing seat 21 for installing the filter 23. Specifically, the bearing base 21 includes a first side 21a and a second side 21b facing away from the first side 21a. The through groove 211 extends through the first side 21a and the second side 21b. A protrusion 212 protrudes from the first side 21a along an inner wall surrounding the through groove 211 in a direction away from the second side 21b.


The through groove 211 is a stepped groove and includes a stepped surface 2111. The filter 23 is received in the through groove 211 and supported by the stepped surface 2111. The through groove 211 includes a first recess 211a recessed from the second side 21b and a second recess 211b recessed from the first side 21a and communicating with the first recess 211a. The stepped surface 2111 is connected to a first inner surface forming the first recess 211a and a second inner surface forming the second recess 211b. The filter 23 is received in the first recess 211a. The protrusion 212 is arranged around the second recess 211b.


In at least one embodiment, a gasket 213 may be received in the through groove 211 and located between the filter 23 and the stepped surface 2111 to buffer the filter 23 and prevent the filter 23 from being broken. In at least one embodiment, a depth of the first recess 211a may be equal to a total thickness of the filter 23 and the gasket 213.


The first adhesive layer 22 is formed on a side of the protrusion 212 facing away from the through groove 211 to fix the protrusion 212 to the substrate assembly 30. The stability of the bearing seat 21 is improved and the resonance between the bearing seat 21 and the substrate assembly 30 is eliminated by arranging the protrusion 212 and the first adhesive layer 22. So that the breakage risk of the filter 23 is effectively reduced.


In at least one embodiment, the protrusion 212 and the first adhesive layer 22 are also used to prevent particles from falling on an image area of the substrate assembly 30.


In at least one embodiment, the first adhesive layer 22 may be a light-absorbing adhesive layer to absorb light, thereby reducing the intensity of the light at the edge of the substrate assembly 30, and reducing the scattered light of the camera device 100. So that the photographing effect of the camera device 100 may be improved.


In at least one embodiment, at least one opening 2121 penetrates the protrusion 212 along a direction perpendicular to the protruding direction of the protrusion 212 to balance the pressure inside the bearing seat 21 and the pressure outside the bearing seat 21.


The second adhesive layer 24 is arranged on the second side 21b of the bearing seat 21 facing away from the protrusion 212 to fix the adjusting mechanism 12 on the bearing base 21.


Referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 5, the substrate assembly 30 includes a photosensitive chip 31, a circuit board 32, and a connector 33.


The photosensitive chip 31 is mounted on the circuit board 32 and located below the protrusion 212. The protrusion 212 is pressed against a periphery of the photosensitive chip 31 and connected to the periphery of the photosensitive chip 31 through the first adhesive layer 22. The periphery of the photosensitive chip 31 is non-imaging area.


The connector 33 is connected to the circuit board 32 and the main body 201.
