The drive mechanism is configured to drive the rotation system to rise, fall, and rotate, such that the camera has functions of both a rear-facing camera and a front-facing camera.

According to certain aspects of the disclosure, an electronic device comprises a housing including a first plate facing a first direction, a second plate facing a second direction opposite to the first direction, and a side member configured to surround a space between the first plate and the second plate; a camera module, at least part of which is disposed in the space; a printed circuit board disposed in the space; and a flexible printed circuit board connecting the camera module and the printed circuit board, wherein between a first position in which the at least part of the camera module is located in the space and a second position in which the at least part of the camera module is located outside the housing in a third direction substantially orthogonal to the first direction and the second direction, the camera module moves in the third direction and rotates to face the first direction or the second direction, wherein the camera module includes a flexible printed circuit board frame configured to receive or shield at least part of the flexible printed circuit board, wherein the flexible printed circuit board includes: a rollable portion including a first distal end of the flexible printed circuit board and a rollable area, wherein the first distal end is connected to one area of the camera module, and at least part of the rollable area is wrapped or unwrapped in the same direction as the rotation of the camera module; a movable portion including a curved area and a second distal end of the flexible printed circuit board, wherein the second distal end extends from the curved area and is connected to the printed circuit board, and a position of the curved area is changed to correspond to the motion of the camera module in the third direction; and a connecting portion configured to connect the rollable portion and the movable portion, and wherein the flexible printed circuit board frame includes: a cylindrical area configured to receive or shield at least part of the rollable portion; and a planar area configured to receive or shield at least part of the movable portion and at least part of the connecting portion, wherein the at least part of the connecting portion is fixed to the planar area.

A camera module in an electronic device which is retracted in the body of the device until deployed includes a drive assembly, a camera assembly, and a first connecting rod. The drive assembly includes a driver and a first member. The first connecting block connects to the driver, the driver can drive the first connecting block toward or away from the driver. The camera assembly comprises a camera bracket and a second connecting block connected to the camera bracket. The first connecting rod connects to the first and second connecting blocks, the first connecting block can drive the first connecting rod to move in a circular motion during the linear movement of the first connecting block, causing the camera bracket to be received in the body or deployed out.

An electronic device includes a front part, a rear part including an opening, a camera module disposed in the opening and configured to rotate depending on a slide operation of the front part. The front part is configured to slide between a first position in which the front part and the rear part are aligned, a second position in which portion of the opening is exposed in a direction toward a front surface of the front part, or a third position in which the opening is exposed in the direction toward the front surface of the front part. The camera module is configured to face a direction away from a rear surface of the front part based on the front part being in the first position and to face the direction toward the front surface of the front part based on the front part being in the third position.

An electronic apparatus may include a main body defining a chamber, a rotating member received in the chamber and rotatably connected to the main body and a sliding mechanism including a sliding rail and a sliding member matching with the sliding rail. The sliding rail may be arranged on one of the main body and the rotating member, the sliding member may be arranged on the other one of the main body and the rotating member. The sliding member may be capable of sliding in the sliding rail, such that the rotating member rotates out and into the chamber.

The invention provides a camera system, including: a supporting base; a rotary driving module for outputting rotary power, including a first driving unit and a driving shaft connected to an output of the first driving unit for being driven by the first driving unit; a camera module, connected to the driving shaft for being driven by the driving shaft to rotate around a central axis of the driving shaft; a mobile driving module including a second driving unit and a driving member connected to the second driving unit. The supporting base is connected to the driving member away from an end part of the camera module. The second driving unit drives the driving member to move, so that the driving member drives the supporting base, the rotary driving module, and the camera module to reciprocate in a direction parallel to the central axis of the driving shaft.
