Driving and the action and the control of dustproof glass 30 of video camera of the band dust reduction capability of this example is described according to the time diagram of the circuit diagram of dustproof glass drive circuit 40 shown in Figure 2 and Fig. 3 below.
Here illustrative dustproof glass drive circuit 40 has circuit structure shown in Figure 2, produces the waveform signal (Sig1~Sig6), carry out following control according to these signals that represents with the time diagram of Fig. 3 in its each one.That is, dustproof glass drive circuit 40 advances the 1st electrode A of counter 41,1/2 frequency dividing circuit 42, inverter 43, a plurality of MOS transistor (Q00, Q01, Q02) 44a, 44b, 44c, transformer 45, resistance (R00) 46, A/D converter 60, piezoelectric element 31 by N as illustrated in Figure 2 and the 2nd electrode B 61, diode (D00) 62, resistance (R01, R02) 63/64 and electric capacity (C00) 65 arranged side by side with it constitutes.
The change action of transistor (Q01) 44b that is connected by primary side and the ON/OFF of transistor (Q02) 44c with described transformer 45, produce the signal (Sig4) of some cycles at the outlet side of this transformer 45, on one side the piezoelectric element 31 that all drivings have 2 electrode A, a B according to the signal of this some cycles is found out effective resonance frequency on one side, makes dustproof glass 30 resonate effectively (back is described in detail).
Bucom50 is by as 2 the IO port P_PwCont and the IO port D_NCnt of control port setting be present in this Bucom50 clock internal pulse generator 55 following control dustproof glass drive circuits 40.Clock pulse generator 55 is exported to N with the frequency enough faster than the signal frequency that imposes on piezoelectric element 31 with pulse signal (basic clock signal) and is advanced counter 41.The waveform signal Sig1 that this output signal is represented for the time diagram among Fig. 3.And this basic clock signal is transfused to N and advances counter 41.
N advances counter 41 and calculates these pulse signals, the pulse signal that the output counting is ended when the value that reaches regulation " N ".That is be 1/N, with the basic clock signal frequency division.The waveform signal Sig2 that this output signal is represented for the time diagram among Fig. 3.
This ratio by the pulse signal high capacity of frequency division and low load is not 1: 1.Therefore by 1/2 frequency dividing circuit 42 with duty ratio to conversion in 1: 1.
And this pulse signal that is transformed is corresponding with the waveform signal Sig3 that the time diagram among Fig. 3 is represented.
Under the high state of this pulse signal that is transformed, MOS transistor (Q01) 44b that has imported this signal is ON.On the other hand, this pulse signal imposes on transistor (Q02) 44c by inverter 43.Therefore, under the low state of pulse signal, transistor (Q02) 44c that has imported this signal is ON.If make transistor (Q01) 44b and transistor (Q02) 44c that are connected with the primary side of transformer 45 alternatively be ON, at the periodic signal of outlet side generation as the signal Sig4 among Fig. 3.

During drive pressure electric device 31, transistor (Q00) 44a is in the ON state, must apply voltage to the central tap of transformer 45 from the unit (ユ ニ Star ト) of power circuit 53.The ON/OFF control of transistor among the figure (Q00) 44a is undertaken by IO port P_PwCont.N advances the set point " N " of counter 41 and can set from IO port D_NCnt.Therefore, Bucom50 is by suitably controlling the driving frequency that set point " N " can change piezoelectric element 31 arbitrarily.
At this moment, can calculate frequency according to following formula.
N: to the set point of counter, fpls: the frequency of clock pulse generator output pulse, fdrv: the frequency of the signal that applies to piezoelectric element,
Fdrv=fpls/2N ... (1 formula)
And the CPU (control device) with Bucom50 carries out according to the calculation of this formula.
Electrode B 61 is the electrode of the piezoelectric element of the vibrational state that is used to detect glass plate.From the vibrational state corresponding alternating voltage (supervisory signal) of these electrode B 61 generations with its glass plate.Sig5 on the time diagram of Here it is Fig. 3.
For this supervisory signal of halfwave rectifier, be provided with the diode (D00) 62 that is connected with electrode B 61.And, by following the envelope that resistance (R01, R02) 63,64 behind this diode (D00) 62 and electric capacity (C00) 65 form these supervisory signals closely.The time constant that the testing circuit that is formed by these resistance (R01, R02) 63,64 and electric capacity (C00) 65 determines is different according to the different only value of glass vibration frequency.The glass plate of this example drives with 2 resonance modes (the 1st, the 2nd drive pattern).When driving frequency differs greatly in these 2 resonance modes, must adopt circuit structure in order to change time constant.With resistance (R01, R02) 63,64 supervisory signal is eased down to the level that can input to A/D converter 60.This signal is the Sig6 on the time diagram of Fig. 3.
This signal is transformed into numerical data with A/D converter 60, reads from the IO port D_DACin of Bucom50.Bucom50 can change and is set in the value that N advances in the counter 41 and makes supervisory signal reach maximum level.When advancing value (resonance frequency) the driving glass of counter 41, can remove dust effectively with the N that represents maximum level.
Main program according to control program shown in Figure 4 specifies the control that above-mentioned camera body control is carried out with microcomputer (Bucom) 50 below.
The mains switch of video camera (not illustrating among the figure) is when placing ON, and Bucom50 starts working, and at first carries out the processing that is used to start camera chain in #000.Control power circuit 53 provides power supply for each circuit unit that constitutes this camera chain.And carry out the initial setting of each circuit unit.
In #001, carry out and call " resonance point detects action " subprogram.This subprogram detects the driving frequency (resonance frequency) (back is described in detail) that is suitable for vibrating effectively dustproof glass 30.Frequency data for this reason are stored in the storage area of specified address of Bucom50.
Then in #002, carry out and call " dedusting action " subprogram.This subprogram is removed attached to the dust on the glass by adding the dustproof glass 30 that shakes with detected resonance frequency in above-mentioned #001, can remove that during not using this video camera to take user does not discover and the dust that adheres to.
In the treatment step #003~#0105 of one of feature of the present invention, to whether various accessories apparatus being housed and state detects down successively.
At first, #003 is the step of carrying out periodically, is by communicating the action step of the state of motion detection lens unit 10 with Lucom5.And in #0041, be installed on the main unit 100 then go to #0044 if detect lens unit 10.And, turning to #0043 from #0042 when detecting when main unit 100 is taken off lens unit 10, control mark F_Lens resets.Be transferred to #005 then.
In #0044, set control mark F_Lens.This control mark is sign " 1 " when lens unit 10 is installed on the main unit 100 of this video camera, and when lens unit 10 takes off sign " 0 ".
#005 is the step of periodically carrying out, and is the step that can be installed to the state in the main unit 100 by the condition judgement detection record medium 27 that communicate connector 35.
In #0061, be installed in the main unit 100 then turn to #0064 if detect recording medium 27.Then turn to #0063 from #0062 when detecting recording medium 27 when main unit 100 is taken out, control mark F_Medum resets.Turn to #010 then.
In #0064, set control mark F_Medum.Turn to #008 then.This control mark is sign " 1 " during recording medium 27 is installed in the main unit 100 of this video camera, sign " 0 " during the taking-up.
Similarly, can judge accessories apparatus electronic flash unit 80 or external power source 70 etc. with following processing procedure.That is:
Whether #010 is the step of periodically carrying out, can be installed on the main unit 100 by detected electrons flashing light unit 80 by the condition judgement that carries out photoflash lamp communications connector 85.
In #0100, when detecting electronic flash unit 80 and be installed on the main unit 100, then turn to #0103, set control mark F_Strobe after, shift to #008.Take out from main unit 100 then shift to #0102 from #0101 if detect electronic flash unit 80, the control mark F_Strobe that resets turns to #0104 then.
And this control mark also is a sign " 1 " during electronic flash unit 80 is being adorned, sign " 0 " during the taking-up.
And #0104 also is the step of periodically carrying out, and by carrying out the condition judgement of socket 37, whether test plug 72 is inserted in the socket 37 of main unit 100.
In #0105, when inserting by plug 72 can detect the connection of external power source 70 in the sockets 37 time, turn to #008, if when external power source 70 does not connect then turn to #014.At length say,, therefore can detect owing to produce change in voltage if electric current provides to power circuit 53a and voltage detecting circuit 53b by external power source 70.Therefore, do not know connection status even do not set special control mark here yet.
If above-mentioned any one accessories apparatus is installed with, then in #008, call " resonance point detect action " subprogram, in #009 following closely, similarly carry out " dedusting action " subprogram of calling the dust that is used to remove dustproof glass 30 with above-mentioned the same execution.
Usually, be not installed in as in during on the main unit 100 of video camera body at lens unit 10, dust is attached to the possibility height on camera lens or the dustproof glass 30 etc.Therefore be preferably in and carry out the dedusting action when detecting lens unit 10 and adorning.And, if change camera lens or installation accessories device, the possibility that the inside that exists air outside to be recycled to video camera changes the video camera temperature inside.Therefore, the resonance frequency owing to this variation of temperature glass also changes.Therefore, carry out above-mentioned " resonance point detects action " that be used to determine new driving frequency (resonance frequency) in above-mentioned #008, then, the frequency with this decision in #009 is following closely carried out " dedusting is moving ".
In #014, judge whether first release-push (not illustrating among the figure) as in the camera operation switch is operated.If placing ON, first release-push turns to #015, if place OFF then turn to above-mentioned #003 once more.
In #015, obtain the luminance information of subject from light measuring circuit 21.Calculate the time for exposure (Tv value) of CCD unit 22 and the aperture settings value (Av value) of pick-up lens 1 according to this information then.
In #016, obtain the detection data of AF sensor unit 16 through AF sensor drive driving circuit 17.Calculate focus offset according to these data.
Here in #017, judge the state of F_Lens.Owing to mean that lens unit 10 does not exist during for " 0 ", therefore the later photography action of the #018 below can not be carried out.Therefore turn to above-mentioned #003 in this case once more.
In #018, send the side-play amount of focal length to Lucom5, according to the driving of this side-play amount instruction pick-up lens 1.
In #019, judge whether second release-push (not illustrating among the figure) as in the camera operation switch 52 is operated.When second release-push places ON, then turn to #0190, when OFF, then turn to above-mentioned #003 once more.
Value according to control mark F_Medum in #0190 is judged having or not of recording medium.If " 1 " in addition, then turn to above-mentioned #003 once more.If then carrying out " dedusting action " routine, " 1 " before the photography action, dirt is removed.But for fear of because this action and generation time sluggishness are not carried out " resonance point detects action " program here.
Though preferably carry out the action that these two routines (routine) produce altogether in order positively to remove dust,, omit " resonance point detects action " routine if resonance frequency does not have the possibility of variation and also can.
And the execution of omitting this routine is an exception when changing camera lens, during the power supply starting of camera chain and when removing sleep state etc.But, the execution that can omit this routine after the action of when burst mode, making a video recording for the second time.
As the shooting action, at first the Av value is flowed to Lucom5 from #020, the driving of instruction aperture 3 makes fast steering mirror body 11 upwards move the position in #021.In #022, make the preceding curtain of shutter 15 begin traveling, open shutter 15.
In #0220, if control mark F_Strobe is set in " 1 ", then in #0230, make photoflash lamp luminous, if beyond this value then make photoflash lamp not luminous, instruction image processing control apparatus 28 is carried out the shooting action in #023.
If time representation CCD unit 22 shootings with the Tv value representation are over, then in #024, make the back curtain of shutter 15 begin traveling, in #025, drive fast steering mirror body 11 to upper/lower positions.
And meanwhile carry out loading (charge) action of shutter 15.In #026, Lucom5 is sent the instruction that allows aperture 3 return to the release position then, in #027, image processing control apparatus 28 is sent the instruction of shot image data to recording medium 27 records.If this record image data is over, then shift to #003 once more, a succession of repeatedly same treatment step.
Describe " resonance point detects action " subprogram in detail according to flow chart shown in Figure 5 and Fig. 7 (a)~Figure 11 (b) below.Before this, in advance with reference to the supporting structure and the vibration shape of the dustproof glass 30 of Fig. 7 (a)~Fig. 8 (b) brief description resonant object.
In electronic image pickup device involved in the present invention, suppose to make being shaped as of dustproof glass 30 discoid.And add the piezoelectric element 31 of the usefulness of shaking along the circumference configuration of the glass plate of this dustproof glass 30, this glass plate is being supported with circumference.At this moment, this glass plate adds with a plurality of vibration modes (vibration shape) and shakes.The present invention selects 2 patterns separately to use from this vibration mode.The vibrational state of glass plate in the vibration mode that Fig. 7 (a) and (b) and Fig. 8 (a) and (b) are represented to select.
Fig. 7 (a) and (b) are represented the vibration shape of the related dustproof glass of this example 30 respectively.Promptly, apply vibration if be used as the piezoelectric element 31 that adds the vibrating device action, though produce non-vibrating " joint " around its glass plate, glass generally uses represented Fig. 7 of thick arrow (a) and Fig. 7 (b) state to vibrate with identical phase interaction ground repeatedly comprehensively.Such vibration shape is hereinafter referred to as " vibration mode 1 ".
Similarly, according to the frequency of the vibration that applies, the dustproof glass 30 of this example also can be with the vibration of the state shown in Fig. 8 (a) and (b) respectively.That is, the vibrational state of illustrative dustproof glass 30 is that the inboard of glass plate and the outside are to differ 180 in Fig. 8 (a) and (b).Phase oscillation.At length be stated as, illustrated vibrational state is the pattern that produces joint on every side with inside respectively of glass plate, and as shown in the figure, the vibration phase of the exterior lateral area (circular zone) of the joint of the vibration of the joint institute area surrounded of inboard and inside differs 180 °.Below be referred to as " vibration mode 2 ".
Therefore, this " resonance point detects action " subprogram shown in Figure 5 be carried out the detection action of the resonance frequency in above-mentioned vibration mode 1 and 2 two kinds of vibration modes of vibration mode at first.
Because therefore the scope that can exist according to characteristic (for example shape, composition, support method etc.) the prediction resonance frequency of glass should apply the vibration detection resonance point to glass plate in this scope.Otherwise, spend the time of Duoing than the detection required time of action.And,, might detect the resonance frequency in the vibration mode high order resonance mode of wanting in addition if do not predict detection range.
Therefore in this example, the necessary parameter of in advance detection of resonance frequency being moved is stored among the EEPROM29 with a plurality of zones of representing with the memory location distribution diagram among Fig. 9, and " with vibration mode 1 corresponding Control Parameter " for example arranged.In store with the occurrence of vibration mode 1 corresponding Control Parameter with the value that is illustrated among Figure 10 (a).For example, StartOffset represents the starting position of reading of this table.
And similarly, with the occurrence of vibration mode 1 corresponding Control Parameter with the in store conduct of the illustrative value of Figure 11 (a) " with vibration mode 1 corresponding frequency compensation table ".Such tables of data is set in N and advances value in the counter 41 when representing to drive glass with vibration mode 1.This table is calculated as the pulse signal of clock pulse generator 55 output frequencies 40 (MHz).Can enough (1 formulas) that had illustrated calculate for example driving frequency.
StopOffset represents to read with this vibration mode 1 corresponding frequency compensation table the position of end of a period.Change driving frequency if arrive the scope of StopOffset at StartOffset, glass plate vibrates with vibration mode 1 with any one value in the table.
StepTime represents use the time of 1 frequency drives when changing driving frequency.Consider decision stabilization time of dustproof glass drive circuit 40.Even the change driving frequency, the vibration of glass plate is also not necessarily followed immediately.If it is not do not follow, consistent with the output of supervisory signal yet.
ADwait is the parameter of the frequency of decision A/D conversion supervisory signal, according to the suitable value of resonance frequency decision of glass.M1OscTime represents to add with detected frequency the time of the dustproof glass 30 that shakes.This is essential in " dedusting action " subprogram.
It more than is the Control Parameter in the vibration mode 1.
Be shown among Figure 10 (b) with the details of vibration mode 2 corresponding Control Parameter.And, be shown among Figure 11 (b) with the details of vibration mode 2 corresponding frequency compensation tables, for the parameter of vibration mode 1 with spline structure because basic identical, therefore omit its explanation.
Below again according to the flow chart of Fig. 5 and the process of Fig. 9~Figure 12 explanation " resonance point detects action ".
In #100, read 4 Control Parameter (StartOffset, StopOffset, StepTime, ADwait) from EEPROM29.
In #101, set the read start address of AddressM1+StartOffset then, set AddressM1+StopOffset as reading the end of a period address as EEPROM29.AddressM1 represents the top address with vibration mode 1 corresponding frequency compensation table.
If suppose to read starting position (StartOffset) for " 3 ", read ultimate position (StopOffset) and be " 9 ", then will be with among Figure 11 (a) *1 to *The preset value " N " in the zone of 2 expressions is set and is advanced counter 41 to N.That is, from f1, f2, f3 ..., f7 frequency in detect the frequency of supervisory signal when being output as maximum.
In #102, will set to memory D_ADMAX as the #0 of the minimum value of supervisory signal in order to ensure interim maximum of preserving supervisory signal.

In #104, read preset value (N) from the address of the EEPROM29 that sets.The preset value that to read from the D_NCnt of IO port is set to N and advances the counter 41 then.
Regular hour till standby is stablized to the frequency drives circuit in #105 then.
In #106, Steptime is set time started counting action to time counter 1.If preserve for example Steptime shown in Figure 10 (a), then 2 (msec) are set to time counter 1.
In #107,, #0 is set to storage area D_ADSUM in order to ensure interim additional calculation data of preserving A/D converter 60.And number is returned in the action in order to ensure counting A/D converter 60, and #0 is set to memory D_ADcount.
In #108, ADwait is set to time counter 2, begin the counting action.If preserved for example ADwait shown in Figure 10 (a), then 80 (μ sec) are set to time counter 2.
Then, in #109, obtain the A/D transformed value of supervisory signal with A/D converter 60.
In #110, the A/D transformed value of supervisory signal is added on the memory area D_ADSUM.Incremental calculation storage area D_ADcount (add 1 calculate) again.Standby is over to the counting action of time counter 2 in #111.
Whether the counting action of judging time counter 1 in #112 is over.If also do not had, then, shift to above-mentioned #108 in order to measure supervisory signal once more.If be over then shift to #113.
In #113, obtain the mean value of AD conversion according to storage area D_ADSUM and D_Adcount.And mean value is saved among the storage area D_ADAVE of the record of guaranteeing this mean value.D_ADAVE represents the level of the supervisory signal in the present driving frequency.
In #114, compare the content of D_ADAVE and the content of D_ADMAX.If the content of D_ADAVE is bigger than the content of D_ADMAX, then shift to #115, hour shift to #119.
In #115, the content of D_ADAVE is moved on among the D_ADMAX.And, nullify original maximum, current measured value is preserved as the maximum of supervisory signal.And, measuring in the supervisory signal with vibration mode 1, then shifting to #117 from #116 if be now.And if be to measure in the supervisory signals now with vibration mode 2, then shift to #118 from #116.
In #117, the address of present EEPROM29 is kept among the D_M1resonant.D_M1resonant is in order to ensure the zone on the memory of the address of preserving vibration mode 1 usefulness.
In #118, the address of present EEPROM is kept among the D_M2resonant.D_M2resonant is in order to ensure the zone on the memory of the address of preserving vibration mode 2 usefulness.
The value of these D_M1resonant and D_M2resonant is used in " dedusting action " described later subprogram.
In #119, judge whether the mensuration of reading the supervisory signal of the driving frequency of representing the end of a period address with EEPROM is over.If also do not had then shifted to #121, if be over then shift to thereafter #120.
In #120, stop the processing of drive actions.Make transistor Q00 be in OFF, stop the action of clock pulse generator.
In #121, add 1 address of reading of calculating EEPROM29, shift to #104.
In #122, judge whether the detection action of resonance point in vibration mode 1 and the vibration mode 2 is over.If the detection action all is over then returns main program.
If have only vibration mode 1 to be over, then shift to #130 for the resonance frequency that detects in the vibration mode 2.And because the action of #130, #131 is basic identical with the #100, the #101 that have illustrated, so its explanation is omitted.And, shift to above-mentioned #102 once more in order to detect resonance frequency.
And this subprogram is read preset value from the frequency compensation table in the scope with 2 parameters (StartOffset, StopOffset) regulation.Utilize all these preset values to drive glass plate then, measure the level of supervisory signal.
Figure 12 represents the relationship of amplitude of frequency and glass plate.And, suppose *The characteristic of 3 expression resonance modes 1.
This routine be determined at the illustrative f1 of Figure 11 (a), f2, f3 ..., the level of supervisory signal in the such frequency (preset value) of f7. *Resonance frequency in 3 the characteristic is fc.Fc is equivalent to f4.This routine f1, f2, f3, f4 on one side changes the mensuration that driving frequency is carried out supervisory signal on one side so successively.And, also continue to drive according to f5, f6, the such order of f7 even surpass resonance frequency fc.
F1~f4 is the direction that supervisory signal increases.And, begin supervisory signal from f5 and change to reducing direction.Therefore, change to reducing direction by increasing direction, then needn't use frequency f 6, f7 to drive if detect this supervisory signal.And, when frequency range is wide, in order to shorten the detection time of resonance frequency, preferably making as illustrative control program here.
Here, " dedusting action " subprogram shown in Figure 6 is described.
This subprogram is set like this: make dustproof glass 30 resonance drive pressure electric device 31 like that with above-mentioned vibration mode 1 and 2 two patterns of vibration mode.Usually, according to the characteristic (for example weight, shape, material etc.) of dust, easy frequency or the amplitude difference that dust is removed.Therefore, preferably make its glass plate resonance in order positively to remove dust with these two vibration modes.Certainly, also can make its resonance with more vibration mode.But,, therefore should take into full account the degree and the suitable number of needed time set of dust removing effects owing to have dedusting action spended time or also will spend more time taking situation than this.
Therefore, at first in #200 according to EEPROM29 read M1OSCtime with vibration mode 1 corresponding Control Parameter, according to reading M2OSCtime with vibration mode 2 corresponding Control Parameter.
In #201, carry out the warming-up exercise of drive pressure electric device 31.The P_PwCont of control IO port makes transistor Q00 be in the ON state.And, clock pulse generator 55 beginning output pulse signals.If the data setting that will obtain from the table of EEPROM29 advances counter 41 to N in this state, then can be with desirable frequency drives piezoelectric element 31.
In #202, from the address of the EEPROM29 of D_M1resonant indication, read preset value (N).This value is set to N advances counter 41.Dustproof glass drive circuit 40 drives its glass plate with the resonance frequency of vibration mode 1 thus.
In #203, M1OscTime is set to time counter 1, begin the counting action.For example, if the M1OscTime of preservation shown in Figure 10 (a), then 200 (msec) are set to time counter 1.
In #204, standby always is over to the counting action of time counter 1.
By above-mentioned steps, the dedusting of vibration mode 1 action is over.Then, in order positively to carry out dedusting, with vibration mode 2 vibration glass plates.
In #205, from the address of the EEPROM29 of D_M2resonant indication, read preset value (N).This value is set to N advances counter 41.Dustproof glass drive circuit 40 drives its glass plate with the resonance frequency of vibration mode 2 thus.
In #206, M2OscTime is set to time counter 2, begin the counting action.For example, if the M2OscTime of preservation shown in Figure 10 (b), then 100 (msec) are set to time counter 2.
In #207, standby always is over to the counting action of time counter 2.
In #208, stop the processing of drive actions then.Make transistor Q00 be in the OFF state, stop the action of clock pulse generator 55.
After this, return main program.
In addition, in the design phase of camera chain, the distribution of the resonance frequency of prediction glass plate is very difficult.Therefore, after this camera chain is finished, the Control Parameter of the driving frequency of decision piezoelectric element 31 can be set.Therefore aforesaid necessary parameter of the present invention can both selectively be stored among the EEPROM29.
And this " dedusting action " subprogram only adopts with above-mentioned " resonance point detects action " detected resonance frequency of subprogram carries out the driving of glass plate.
Figure 12 represents the relationship of amplitude of frequency and glass plate.Characteristic when supposing to carry out " resonance point detects action " subprogram is *3.Resonance frequency fc is for being equivalent to the frequency of the f4 among Figure 11 (a).But, owing to do not predict this main cause of resonance frequency, characteristic also just like *4, *5 possibilities that change like that.Even also can be corresponding, preferably from the table of EEPROM29, except that f4, also read the data of f3, f5 and carry out this subprogram in order to produce such change.
And, because variations in temperature, resonance frequency is change within the specific limits also, therefore the temperature compensation table that can make by the certain experiment of set basis suitably, and can preserve with reference to ground, drive its glass plate with only resonance frequency in the temperature when it uses.Therefore, for from the corresponding temperature compensation table of vibration mode read and at that time temperature corresponding parameter, can be before this subprogram be carried out with temperature sensor (not illustrating among the figure) the detected temperatures information (t) of temperature measuring circuit 33.
In this wise, if adopt the electronic image pickup device (for example video camera) of the band dust reduction capability of this example, owing to be to load and unload lens unit 10 and recording medium 27, accessories apparatus such as external power source 70 or electronic flash unit 80, having the component parts (dustproof glass 30) that is configured between pick-up lens 1 and the CCD unit 22 and planting frequency with plural number makes this glass vibration remove the dust cleaning apparatus (piezoelectric element 31 and dustproof glass drive circuit 40) of the dust of attachment removal, therefore, any one installation in can corresponding above-mentioned accessories apparatus is effectively removing dust with the resonance action that piezoelectric element 31 produces opportunity.
In the special dust reduction capability here, have for the resonance frequency that detects optical element (dustproof glass 30) and drive the resonance frequency detecting pattern that adds vibrating device (piezoelectric element 31), with in order to remove the dedusting pattern of drive pressure electric device 31 attached to the dust on the above-mentioned optical element, when accessories apparatus has been installed, carry out above-mentioned resonance frequency detecting pattern and above-mentioned dedusting pattern basically continuously.And, be not subjected in order to photograph at once because of detecting the influence of the time lag that the needed time of resonance frequency causes, the detection action of before will photographing, omitting resonance frequency.Therefore, cause bad influence opportunity can be neither for photography, again can be effectively and positively remove dust.
(variation)
Though the example of cover glass (dustproof glass) has been described as an example of electronic image pickup device with camera chain above; even but in abstaining from other electronic image pickup device of dust; perhaps component parts beyond the dustproof glass or other position; if use the present invention equally, also can obtain and the equal effect of above-mentioned example.
And, can also use glass optical element in addition that can not determine resonance frequency, in this case, do not need to adjust because the eigentone that the dispersion of each goods causes can be expected and above-mentioned equal effect yet.
In addition, can do various distortion in the scope that does not break away from essence of the present invention implements.
