Abstract: A method for assembling a vehicular camera includes providing a housing having a metal front housing portion and a metal rear housing portion. The front housing portion includes a lens barrel, and the rear housing portion includes a connector portion configured to connect to a vehicle wire harness. An imager circuit board is positioned at the front housing portion with an imager aligned with the at least one lens. The connector circuit board is retained via a spring element at a location spaced from the imager circuit board, with circuitry of the connector circuit board electrically connected to circuitry of the imager circuit board. The rear housing portion is joined with the front housing portion and the spring element engages the rear housing portion and the second side of the imager circuit board to retain the connector circuit board at the location spaced from the imager circuit board.

Abstract: A vehicular camera includes a housing having a front housing portion and a rear housing portion, with the front housing portion including a lens barrel accommodating a lens assembly, and with the rear housing portion including a connector portion configured to connect to a wire harness of a vehicle. An imager circuit board is disposed in an inner cavity of the housing, with an imager disposed at a first side of the imager circuit board and in optical alignment with the lens assembly. The imager circuit board is retained in the inner cavity by a spring element that engages the rear housing portion and urges the imager circuit board relative to the rear housing portion in a direction parallel to a longitudinal axis of the lens assembly and in a direction toward the lens barrel and the lens assembly.

Abstract: A camera for a vehicle vision system includes a housing having a front housing portion with a lens barrel and lens assembly, and a rear housing portion with a connector. The front and rear housing portions are mated together to establish an inner cavity in the housing. An imager circuit board is disposed in the inner cavity of the housing, with an imager disposed at the imager circuit board and optically aligned with the lens assembly. When the front and rear housing portions are mated together, perimeter flanges of the front and rear housing portions may be curled to have multiple folds to seal the front housing portion relative to the rear housing portion. The imager circuit board may be held in the inner cavity by a spring element that urges the imager circuit board in a direction toward the lens assembly.
