Abstract:
An image pickup device includes: an image pickup element; a control portion sequentially resetting charge stored in the image pickup element for every pixel line in a predetermined direction such that an electronic leading blade moves in a simulated manner; and a focal plane shutter.
Abstract:
The ribbon winding unit is equipped with a first moving gear, a second moving gear, a first intermediate gear, a tumbler gear, and a winding member. The first intermediate gear engages with the first moving gear when the first moving gear and the second moving gear move in a given direction, and disengages from the first moving gear when the first moving gear and the second moving gear move in an opposite direction. The tumbler gear engages with the first intermediate gear, engages with the second moving gear when the first moving gear and the second moving gear move in the opposite direction, and disengages from the second moving gear when the first moving gear and the second moving gear move in the given direction.
Abstract:
A focal plane shutter includes: a board including an opening; a shutter opening and closing the opening; a drive source driving the shutter; a drive lever driven by the drive source; a drive arm connected to the drive lever and driving the shutter; a restriction portion defining a stop position of the drive lever; and a buffering member elastically deformable, wherein, when the drive lever drives, abuts the restriction portion, and stops, at least one of the drive arm and the shutter temporarily abuts the buffering member, is spaced from the buffering member, and stops.
Abstract:
A focal plane shutter includes: a board including an opening; a leading shutter and a trailing shutter opening and closing the opening; first and second biasing members respectively biasing the leading shutter and the trailing shutter to move away from the opening; a first actuator causing the leading shutter to move from a position to close the opening to a position to recede from the opening while the leading shutter is assisted by a biasing force of the first biasing member in an exposure operation; and a second actuator causing the trailing shutter to move from a position to recede from the opening to a position to close the opening against a biasing force of the second biasing member in the exposure operation, wherein drive torque of the first actuator is smaller than that of the second actuator.
Abstract:
A focal plane shutter includes: a board including an opening; a leading blade and a trailing blade opening and closing the opening; first and second drive members respectively driving the leading blade and the trailing blade; first and second actuators respectively driving the first and second drive members; a first biasing member biasing the first drive member to move the leading blade away from the opening; and a second biasing member biasing the second drive member to move the trailing blade away from the opening.
Abstract:
A blade drive device includes: a board including an opening; a blade movable between a position receding from the opening and a position covering at least a portion of the opening; a first actuator including a first rotor rotatable about a first axis and a first stator, and being capable of driving the blade; a second actuator including a second rotor rotatable about a second axis and a second stator, and being capable of driving the blade; first and second positioning portions respectively positioning the first and second actuators; and a first biasing member respectively biasing the first and second actuators toward the first and second positioning portions.
Abstract:
A blade drive device includes: a blade; a board including an opening opened and closed by the blade; an actuator including a rotor; an output member driven by the rotor; a drive member rotatable relative to the board in response to the output member; a driven member driving the blade in response to the drive member; and a holder holding the actuator, wherein the holder includes an escape hole, the drive member includes: a support portion rotatably supported; a first connection portion connected with the output member; and a second connection portion connected with the driven member, and the first connection portion is positioned in the escape hole between the second connection portion and the support portion.
Abstract:
There is provided a blade drive device including a substrate that has an opening, a front curtain and a rear curtain that are movable along an opening surface of the opening so as to open and close the opening, a front curtain electromagnetic actuator that actuates the front curtain, a rear curtain electromagnetic actuator that actuates the rear curtain, and that is capable of holding the rear curtain at an open position in a state having no power supply, a front curtain locking portion that interlocks with opening and closing operations of the front curtain, a rear curtain locking portion that interlocks with opening and closing operations of the rear curtain, and a blade position holding mechanism that is capable of entry and escape between an entry position which enters each operation trajectory of the front curtain locking portion and the rear curtain locking portion in response to the opening and closing operations of the front curtain and the rear curtain and an escape position escaped from the operation trajectory. At the entry position, the blade position holding mechanism can engage with both the front curtain locking portion and the rear curtain locking portion, thereby regulating the movement of the front curtain and the rear curtain in the closing direction.
Abstract:
To provide a blade drive device that may prevent malfunction of blades. A blade drive device includes a base plate having an opening to be opened and closed by a blade on an optical axis, and a flexible substrate having joint portions to which conductor wires of a first actuator and a second actuator that drive the blades are joined, the flexible substrate being provided between the base plate and the blades on one side of the base plate in an axis direction of the optical axis. The base plate is provided with a substrate housing part in which at least a part of the flexible substrate is housed and to which a covering material for covering the joint portions is applied. The substrate housing part is provided with wall surface extending from the other side toward the one side in the axis direction of the optical axis. The wall surface is provided with corner portions extending along a direction crossing the axis direction of the optical axis. The corner portions are provided between the blades and the flexible substrate in the axis direction of the optical axis.
