Camera system with image sensor contacting metallic housing via heat conducting element

摘要

A camera system for a vehicle includes: a camera housing; an imager module accommodated in the camera housing, the imager module including a carrier device, a lens accommodated in the carrier device, and an image sensor accommodated at the carrier device, an optical axis of the camera system being set by the image sensor and the lens. The image sensor makes contact with a metallic housing part of the camera housing via a heat-conducting element. The imager module is fixed in one direction perpendicular to the optical axis in the camera housing, i.e., it is braced in the radial direction and cooled axially toward the rear.

1. A camera system for a vehicle, comprising:
a camera housing; and an imager module accommodated in the camera housing, the imager module including a carrier device, a lens accommodated in the carrier device, and an image sensor accommodated at the carrier device, wherein an optical axis of the camera system is set by the image sensor and the lens, and wherein the image sensor makes contact via a heat-conducting element with a metallic housing part of the camera housing; wherein at one first housing part a self-centering contact contour is formed and the imager module is pressed against the contact contour by a spring element for self-centering accommodation in the camera housing.
