Autofocus assembly that adjusts a lens in the optical axis direction by alignment of holes in a spacing ring that receive ball bearings

摘要

A camera assembly may include an autofocus assembly that selectively imparts a first displacement between a lens assembly and an imaging sensor and a second displacement between the lens assembly and the imaging sensor. The autofocus assembly includes at least one positioner and an actuator. The actuator is configured to move the positioner between a first position in which the positioner contacts a first surface that is in a first plane corresponding to the first displacement and second position in which the positioner contacts a second surface that is in a second plane corresponding to the second displacement. The first and second planes may be offset so that a distance between the first displacement and the second displacement directly corresponds to a distance between the first and second planes.
