Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A periscope lens module of a mobile terminal and the mobile terminal are disclosed. The periscope lens module includes a motor housing and a lens. The lens includes an enclosure, a first lens, and a second lens. The enclosure includes a first cylinder and a second cylinder connected to the first cylinder. At least one gap penetrating a sidewall of the first cylinder is disposed on the sidewall. The first lens is fastened in the first cylinder, and the second lens is fastened in the second cylinder.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A lens, wherein the lens is applied to a periscope lens module of a mobile terminal, and the lens comprises an enclosure, a first lens, and a plurality of second lenses, wherein the enclosure comprises a first cylinder and a second cylinder connected to the first cylinder, a diameter of the first cylinder is greater than a diameter of the second cylinder, at least one gap penetrating a sidewall of the first cylinder is disposed on the sidewall, the first lens is fastened in the first cylinder, the plurality of second lenses are fastened in the second cylinder, and the first lens, the plurality of second lenses, the first cylinder, and the second cylinder are coaxially disposed, wherein the at least one gap is adjacent to the first lens and faces to a rear housing of the mobile terminal, wherein a distance from a center of the first lens to a cutting surface of the first lens is less than d+e, wherein d is a radius of the first lens and e is a sidewall thickness of the first cylinder. 2. The lens of claim 1 , wherein there are two gaps, and the two gaps are symmetrically disposed on the first cylinder. 3. The lens of claim 1 , wherein an edge that is of each gap and that is located on an outside of the first cylinder is set to a cutting surface. 4. The lens of claim 3 , wherein a distance from a center of the first lens to the cutting surface is not less than a radius of the first lens. 5. The lens of claim 1 , wherein the periscope lens module further comprises a first fastener, and the first fastener is embedded in the second cylinder and is used to fasten the first lens. 6. The lens of claim 5 , wherein the periscope lens module further comprises at least one second fastener, and the at least one second fastener is one-to-one correspondingly inserted into the at least one gap and is used to fasten the first lens. 7. The lens of claim 6 , wherein when the first lens is fastened by using the first fastener and the second fastener, the first fastener, the second fastener, and the first lens are disposed in an integrated structure. 8. The lens of claim 7 , wherein each gap is a convex-shape gap, and an end that is of the gap and that has a smaller opening is close to the second cylinder. 9. The lens of claim 1 , wherein the lens is arranged in a width direction of the mobile terminal. 10. The lens of claim 1 , wherein one of the at least one sidewall gap is parallel to the rear housing of the mobile terminal. 11. A periscope lens module of a mobile terminal, comprising a motor housing and the lens of claim 1 , wherein the lens is located in the motor housing. 12. A mobile terminal, comprising a mobile terminal body and the periscope lens module of the mobile terminal of claim 11 , wherein the periscope lens module is disposed in the mobile terminal. 13. A mobile terminal, comprising: a mobile terminal body; and a lens comprising an enclosure, a first lens, and a plurality of second lenses, wherein the enclosure comprises a first cylinder and a second cylinder connected to the first cylinder, a diameter of the first cylinder is greater than a diameter of the second cylinder, at least one gap penetrating a sidewall of the first cylinder is disposed on the sidewall, the first lens is fastened in the first cylinder, the plurality of second lenses are fastened in the second cylinder, and the first lens, the plurality of second lenses, the first cylinder, and the second cylinder are coaxially disposed, wherein the at least one gap is adjacent to the first lens and faces to a rear housing of the mobile terminal, where a distance from a center of the first lens to a cutting surface of the first lens is less than d+e, wherein d is a radius of the first lens and e is a sidewall thickness of the first cylinder. 14. The mobile terminal of claim 13 , wherein there are two gaps, and the two gaps are symmetrically disposed on the first cylinder. 15. The mobile terminal of claim 13 , wherein an edge that is of each gap and that is located on an outside of the first cylinder is set to a cutting surface. 16. The mobile terminal of claim 15 , wherein a distance from a center of the first lens to the cutting surface is not less than a radius of the first lens. 17. The mobile terminal of claim 13 , further comprising a first fastener, and the first fastener is embedded in the second cylinder and is used to fasten the first lens. 18. The mobile terminal of claim 17 , further comprising at least one second fastener, and the at least one second fastener is one-to-one correspondingly inserted into the at least one gap and is used to fasten the first lens. 19. The mobile terminal of claim 18 , wherein when the first lens is fastened by using the first fastener and the second fastener, the first fastener, the second fastener, and the first lens are disposed in an integrated structure. 20. The mobile terminal of claim 19 , wherein each gap is a convex-shape gap, and an end that is of the gap and that has a smaller opening is close to the second cylinder.
