     TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The present disclosure relates to the technical field of optical devices, in particular, to a heating apparatus for a lens, a lens assembly having a heating apparatus, and a method for manufacturing a lens assembly having a heating apparatus. 
     BACKGROUND 
     With the development of science and technology, optical apparatuses such as vehicle-mounted lens assemblies, optical lens assemblies, and optical lampshades are more and more applied in people&#39;s daily life. For example, in order to provide comfort and safety for car driving, vehicle-mounted lens assemblies are widely used in the fields such as front view, rear view, surround view, interior view, and side view of cars. At the same time, with the continuous development of automobile technology, the number and performance of vehicle-mounted lens assemblies required in cars have been greatly improved, and requirements for weather resistance of vehicle-mounted lens assemblies are also more stringent. When a vehicle is traveling in continuous rainy, frosty or alternatively cold and hot environments, inner and outer surfaces of a lens on a near-object side of the vehicle-mounted lens assembly are prone to fogging or frosting, which seriously affects an optical performance of the vehicle-mounted lens assembly and endangers people&#39;s driving safety. 
     In order to ensure the driving safety, the current commonly used means is to install a heat generating element in the vehicle-mounted lens assembly to heat and evaporate moisture attached to the surface of the lens or to prevent fogging or frosting. For example, an electric heating wire may be directly used to heat the lens assembly product to achieve functions of defogging and defrosting. 
     However, since the electric heating wire needs to be embedded in the lens to keep it fixed, it changes an original structure of the corresponding lens, which not only increases the difficulty of an overall manufacturing process of the lens assembly and increases costs, but also destroys strength of the corresponding lens, making the lens easy to crack especially after heating up, deteriorating an imaging quality, and the lens cannot be repaired. Moreover, the electric heating wire itself also has problems such as low heating efficiency, poor heating uniformity or complicated installation. In addition, if the heating material is directly embedded in the lens structure, it has problems such as weak overall stability of the lens assembly or poor weather resistance in bad weathers. Therefore, it is of great importance to develop a lens defogging product with simple structure, high heat efficiency, uniform heating, safety in use, and strong weather resistance.

The present disclosure will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments. 
       FIGS.  1 A to  1 C  are cross-sectional views of a lens having a heating apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in  FIGS.  1 A to  1 C , in an embodiment of the present disclosure, a first lens  1000  is arranged in an overall structure of a lens assembly, the overall structure of the lens assembly also includes a lens barrel and other lens(es), such as a second lens  2000 . However, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that without departing from the technical solution claimed in the present disclosure, the number of lenses having a heating apparatus or other related elements included in the lens assembly may be changed to obtain the various results and advantages described in this specification. The lens barrel may include a sidewall for fixing the lens. Each lens in the lens assembly is arranged along an axial direction of the lens assembly and mounted in the lens barrel in sequence. An edge of each lens is mounted on the sidewall of the lens barrel, where various modes, such as slotting on the sidewall to hold the edge of the lens, may be adopted to fix the lens in the lens barrel. 
     Considering that an outermost first lens in the lens assembly close to the object side is most susceptible to influence of temperature and climate in external environments such as rain and snow environment, low temperature environment, and/or high temperature environment, and condenses moisture on a surface of the lens. Therefore, alternatively, the first lens located on the object side in the lens assembly, such as the first lens  1000  in the present embodiment, is set as the lens having a heating apparatus, while other lens(es), such as the second lens  2000  in the present embodiment, may be set as an ordinary lens or a lens having a heating apparatus, since the second lens  2000  is less affected by the external environment, the second lens  2000  is not susceptible to condense moisture on the surface of the lens. 
     As shown in  FIG.  1 A , the first lens  1000  is composed of a lens body made of transparent material, the lens body has a first surface  1100  and a second surface  1200  opposite to each other, the first surface  1100  and the second surface  1200  are used to pass light for imaging. As shown in  FIG.  1 A , the first surface  1100  and the second surface  1200  may have a substantially arc-shaped contour, and a radius of the first surface  1100  is greater than a radius of the second surface and the first surface  1100  and the second surface are separated by a predetermined distance. In the present disclosure, a part connecting the first surface  1100  and the second surface  1200  is referred to as an edge  1300 . The edge  1300  includes a surface  1310   a  extending along a cut from the first surface  1100  and being referred to as an “upper end surface”  1310   a , a surface  1310   b  extending along a cut from the second surface  1200  and being referred to as a “lower end surface”  1310   b  (in the following description, “end surface  1310 ” is used to refer to the upper end surface  1310   a  and the lower end surface  1310   b ), and a surface  1320  referred to as a “side surface”  1320 , the surface  1320  is substantially perpendicular to the upper end surface  1310   a  and the lower end surface  1310   b  and extends and connects to the second surface  1200 . 
     A heating apparatus  1400  may be arranged on the end surface  1310  at the edge  1300 . The heating apparatus  1400  may be a ceramic heating ring heating apparatus  1410  (shown in  FIG.  1 A ) or a polyimide PI heating film heating apparatus  1420  (as shown in  FIG.  4 A ). However, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that without departing from the technical solution claimed in the present disclosure, a type of the heating apparatus in the lens including a heating apparatus may be changed to obtain the various results and advantages described in this specification, for example, the heating apparatus  1400  may be one or more of the different apparatuses such as cast aluminum heater, electric heating belt, and/or mica heating sheet. 
     When the lens assembly is affected by the external environment, such as high temperature environment, low temperature environment, and/or rain and snow environment, moisture may condense on the surface of the lens. For a lens assembly installed with the first lens  1000  having the heating apparatus  1400 , the heating apparatus  1400  may transfer heat to the first lens  1000  by means of heating conduction or thermal radiation, to evaporate or disperse moisture, effectively improving an overall weather resistance and reliability of the lens assembly. 
     In  FIGS.  1 A to  1 H , a structure and operating process of the heating apparatus  1400  are described in detail using the ceramic heating ring heating apparatus  1410  as an example. The ceramic heating ring heating apparatus  1410  (hereinafter referred to as the heating apparatus  1410 ) may be arranged on the end surface  1310  at the edge  1300 , that is, the heating apparatus  1410  may be arranged on the upper end surface  1310   a  (as shown in  FIG.  1 A ) or the lower end surface  1310   b  (as shown in  FIG.  1 B ) of the edge  1300 . 
     As shown in  FIG.  1 C , the heating apparatus  1410  may also be arranged on the side surface  1320  of the first lens  1000  at the edge  1300 ; or the heating apparatus  1410  may also be provided simultaneously at the end surface  1310  (on the upper end surface  1310   a  or on the lower end surface  1310   b ) of the first lens  1000  at the edge  1300  and the side surface  1320 . For example, the heating apparatus  1410  as shown in  FIG.  1 D  is provided simultaneously at the upper end surface  1310   a  and the side surface  1320 , the heating apparatus  1410  as shown in  FIG.  1 E  is provided simultaneously at the lower end surface  1310   b  and the side surface  1320 , or the heating apparatus  1410  as shown in  FIG.  1 F  is provided simultaneously at the upper end surface  1310   a , the lower end surface  1310   b  and the side surface  1320 . 
     The heating apparatus  1400  may include a heat generating element. The heat generating element may be an electric heating wire. The temperature-inductive resistance of the electric heating wire has a large temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR). After power is supplied, a temperature-inductive resistance of the heat generating element increases with an ambient temperature. Under the same voltage input, when the ambient temperature is low, the power of the heating apparatus  1400  is high, which may achieve rapid heating; when the ambient temperature is high, the temperature-inductive resistance of the heat generating element increases, and the power of the heating apparatus  1400  decreases, so that the temperature of the heating apparatus  1400  may be guaranteed not to be over high. Therefore, after the power is supplied, the heating apparatus  1400  may heat the first lens  1000 , so that the temperature of the first lens  1000  increases, thereby accelerating evaporation or accelerating dispersion of moisture (such as fog, frost, water droplets, or ice) attached to the first surface  1100  and the second surface  1200  of the first lens  1000 . At the same time, the first lens  1000  may also be heated by the heating apparatus  1400  after the power supply, to prevent the first surface  1100  and the second surface  1200  of the first lens  1000  from condensing moisture, to prevent the lens assembly from being unclear or having blind spots, etc., to ensure imaging reliability of the first lens  1000 . 
     Further, the heat generated by the heating apparatus  1400  may be transferred to the first lens  1000  by direct or indirect contact. First, the edge  1300  of the first lens  1000 , which is tightly fixed to the heating apparatus  1400 , receives the heat generated by the heating apparatus  1400  evenly by means of heat conduction, then the heat is evenly diffused from the edge  1300  to a center of the first lens  1000  by means of heat conduction and thermal radiation. In this way, the heat diffuses more evenly, which may effectively eliminate the moisture on the first surface  1100  and the second surface  1200  of the first lens  1000 , and avoid local overheating of the first lens  1000 . 
     The heating apparatus  1400  may be a ring-like structure, a contour of the ring-like structure matches a contour of the edge  1300  of the first lens  1000 , so that the heating apparatus  1400  can be tightly fixed to the edge  1300  of the first lens  1000 . However, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that without departing from the technical solution claimed in the present disclosure, the shape and structure of the heating apparatus  1400  may be changed to obtain the various results and advantages described in this specification. 
     It is worth mentioning that a cross-sectional shape of the ring-like structure of the heating apparatus  1400  may be circular, rectangular, trapezoidal, stepped, etc., according to actual requirements. Without departing from the technical solution claimed in the present disclosure, the cross-sectional shape of the heating apparatus  1400  may be changed to obtain the various results and advantages described in this specification. 
     The heat generating element (not shown) in the heating apparatus  1400  is configured to generate heat required by the apparatus  1400  to provide to the first lens  1000  for fixing the heating apparatus  1400 . The heat generating element may be a metal heating wire, such as nickel-iron wire, iron-chromium-aluminum wire, nickel-chromium wire. Alternatively, the heat generating element may contain one or more of the above electric heating wires. That is, the shape, structure or material of the heat generating element may be changed to obtain the various results and advantages described in this specification. 
     Further, a mechanism member  1500  may also be provided between the various lenses, for example, the mechanism member  1500  may ensure that in the lens assembly, for example, a safety gap with a constant distance between the first lens  1000  and the second lens  2000  maintains. In the present disclosure, the mechanism member  1500  may be directly set as the ceramic heating ring heating apparatus. As shown in  FIG.  1 G , the heating apparatus  1410  may also be arranged adjacent to the mechanism member  1500 , i.e., arranged between the lower end surface  1310   b  of the first lens  1000  and a seal  1600  in an overall structure of the lens assembly; or as shown in  FIG.  1 C , the heating apparatus  1410  may be arranged between the first lens  1000  and a sidewall of the lens assembly; or as shown in  FIG.  1 H , the heating apparatus  1410  may directly replace the mechanism member  1500 , acting as a spacer to separate adjacent lenses, arranged between the lower end surface  1310   b  of the first lens  1000  and a seal  1600  in an overall structure of the lens assembly. 
       FIGS.  2 A to  2 F  are cross-sectional views of a notch groove  1330  of the edge  1300  of the first lens  1000  having the heating apparatus  1400  according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in  FIGS.  2 A to  2 F , in order to more conveniently and effectively install the heating apparatus  1400 , the notch groove  1330  for accommodating the heating apparatus  1400  may be provided on the outside of the edge  1300  of the first lens  1000 . The heating apparatus  1400  is arranged in the notch groove  1330  and is fixed to an inner wall of the notch groove  1330 . The notch groove  1330  may be a rectangular notch groove, a triangular notch groove, or an arc-shaped notch groove, which is not limited herein, as long as a contact area between the heating apparatus  1400  and the first lens  1000  can be increased within a protection scope of the present disclosure. 
     In addition, as shown in  FIGS.  2 A to  2 E , the notch groove  1330  may be arranged on the end surface  1310  of the edge  1300  of the first lens  1000 . As shown in  FIG.  2 A , the notch groove  1330  is arranged on the lower end surface  1310   b . As shown in  FIG.  2 B , the notch groove  1330  is arranged on the lower end surface  1310   b , and is set to have a stepped rectangular groove. As shown in  FIG.  2 C , the notch groove  1330  is arranged on the upper end surface  1310   a ; As shown in  FIGS.  2 D and  2 E , when heating apparatus  1400  is arranged in the notch groove  1330  at the end surface  1310 , the heating apparatus  1400  may extend in a direction of the side surface  1320 . As shown in  FIG.  2 F , the notch groove  1330  may be arranged on the side surface  1320  of the edge  1300  of the first lens  1000 . As shown in  FIGS.  2 A to  2 F , the notch groove  1330  being a rectangular notch groove is used as an example. However, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that without departing from the technical solution claimed in the present disclosure, the shape and structure of the notch groove  1330  may be changed to obtain the various results and advantages described in this specification. 
       FIG.  3    is a schematic diagram of a position of a fixing element  1402  in a lens assembly according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in  FIG.  3   , in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the heating apparatus  1400  may also include the fixing element  1402 . The fixing element  1402  may be any element capable of fixing the heating apparatus  1400  for fixing the heating apparatus  1400  to the first lens  1000  in the lens assembly. Through the fixing element  1402 , the heating apparatus  1400  can be tightly fixed to the inner wall of the notch groove  1330 , so as not to detach from the edge  1300  of the first lens  1000 , and can always transfer heat to the edge  1300  by contact. 
     In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the fixing element  1402  may be a double-sided adhesive having good thermal conductivity, that is, the fixing element  1402  may be one or more of a thermal conductive glue or a thermal conductive tape. When the fixing element  1402  is the thermal conductive glue or the thermal conductive tape having good thermal conductivity, it is bonded between the heating apparatus  1400  and the edge  1300  of the first lens  1000 , so that the heating apparatus  1400  can be tightly fixed to the edge  1300  of the first lens  1000 . In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the fixing element  1402  may also be an resilient element, which may be placed at the edge  1300  in a compressed state. When the first lens  1000  is fixed to the sidewall of the lens assembly, the resilient element may rely on the resilience generated by a sidewall support force to tightly fix the heating apparatus  1400  to the edge  1300  of the first lens  1000 , so that the heating apparatus  1400  can transfer heat to the edge  1300  of the first lens  1000  by heat conduction through the direct contact. However, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that without departing from the technical solution claimed in the present disclosure, the position where the resilient element is arranged may be changed to obtain the various results and advantages described in this specification. For example, the resilient element may be arranged between the first lens  1000  and the second lens  2000 . 
     In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the fixing element  1402  may also be a double-sided adhesive having good electric conductivity performance, that is, the fixing element  1402  may be one or more of an electric conductive glue or an electric conductive tape. When the fixing element  1402  is the electric conductive glue or the electric conductive tape, it is bonded between the heating apparatus  1400  and the edge  1300  of the lens  1000 , so that the heating apparatus  1400  can be tightly fixed to the edge  1300  of the first lens  1000 . 
     The fixing element  1402  itself may also be a locking element of the lens assembly, such as an external pressuring ring. 
     In the lens assembly system, the heating apparatus  1400  may be fixed between a lens and a lens barrel wall or between adjacent lenses through the fixing element  1402 , such as between the first lens  1000  and the second lens  2000  or between a lens and a spacer ring. 
     In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the heating apparatus  1400  may be the ceramic heating ring heating apparatus  1410 . The ceramic itself is material stable and may withstand various external environments. The ceramic heating ring heating apparatus  1410  made of ceramic material has high reliability as a whole. In addition, the ceramic itself has good thermal conductivity and insulation, which may provide perfect protection for the heat generating element, and because of its low production cost and easy-to-process appearance, external dimensions of the ceramic heating ring heating apparatus  1410  may be formulated according to the use requirements, and an external shape of the ceramic heating ring heating apparatus  1410  may be formulated based on an actual shape of the first lens  1000  to ensure that the ceramic heating ring heating apparatus  1410  can have a large contact area with the to-be-heated first lens  1000 , effectively improving the utilization rate of heat energy. 
     In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the heating apparatus  1400  may be the polyimide PI heating film heating apparatus  1420 . Polyimide film is a kind of translucent metal flexible electric heating film. Since it can change its shape on some uneven surfaces, the polyimide film can not only ensure a good fit with the end surface  1310  or the side surface  1320  of the first lens  1000 , at the same time, can also ensure that its contact area with the to-be-heated first lens  1000  is large enough. Moreover, a heat conduction efficiency of the polyimide film itself is very high, therefore, while protecting the heat generating element, the polyimide film can greatly transfer heat generated by the heat generating element to the tightly fixed first lens  1000 . In addition, a thickness of the polyimide film may be as low as, for example, 0.1 mm, which takes up very little space. 
       FIGS.  4 A to  4 I  are cross-sectional views of the first lens  1000  having a polyimide heating film heating apparatus according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. In  FIGS.  4 A to  4 I , there are partial schematic structural diagrams of lens portions G, H, I, J, K, L, M and N after ten times (10:1) enlargement.

As shown in  FIGS.  8 A,  8 B,  8 D and  8 G , when the heating apparatus  1400  is the polyimide heating film heating apparatus  1420 , the conductive unit  1403  may have at least two leads  1403   c  for connecting the heat generating element and the energy supply unit. The two ends of the heat generating element are respectively connected to the conductive unit  1403 , and the conductive unit  1403  is respectively connected to the positive and negative electrodes of the energy supply unit, so that the heat generating element is turned on, converts electrical energy into heat energy, and transfers the heat energy to the fixed first lens  1000 . In the present embodiment, a heat-resistant hard carrier is added to the polyimide PI heating film, so that the designed installation positions of the at least two leads  1403   c  are different from those of the at least two leads  1403   a  and the at least two leads  1403   b.    
     In  FIG.  8 A , the at least two leads  1403   c  are designed to be installed on the outer end surface  1405   a  of the polyimide film  1405  in the heating apparatus  1420 ; in  FIG.  8 C , a partial schematic structure of a portion C of the lens enlarged ten times (10:1) is also shown; as shown in  FIG.  8 B , the at least two leads  1403   c  are designed to be installed on the outer side surface  1405   b  of the polyimide film  1405  in the heating apparatus  1420 ; in  FIGS.  8 E and  8 F , partial schematic structures of portions D and E of the lens enlarged ten times (10:1) are also shown; as shown in  FIG.  8 D , the at least two leads  1403 C are designed to be installed on the outer end surface  1405   a  and the inner side surface  1405   c  of the polyimide film  1405  in the heating apparatus  1420 ; in  FIG.  8 H , a partial schematic structure of a portion F of the lens enlarged ten times (10:1) is also shown.

The above description is only an embodiment of the present disclosure and a description of the technical principles used. Those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the protection scope involved in the present disclosure is not limited to the technical solution formed by specific combinations of the above technical features, and should also cover other technical solutions formed by any combination of the above technical features or their equivalent features without departing from the technical concept. For example, technical solutions formed by replacing the above features with technical features having similar functions disclosed in the present disclosure (but not limited to). 
     Referring to  FIG.  9   , which shows a schematic structural diagram of a lens assembly module of another embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in  FIG.  9   , the lens assembly module according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure may include a lens assembly body  11 , a heater  12  and a structural member  13 , and a controller  14 . The lens assembly body  11  is equivalent to the overall structure of the lens assembly aforementioned. The heater  12  is configured to generate heat for heating the lens assembly body  11 . The controller  14  is configured to generate a control command for controlling operation of the heater  12  to generate the heat. The structural member  13  is fixedly connected to the lens assembly body  11 , and is configured to transmit the control command generated by the controller  14  to the heater  12 . The structural member  13  and the lens assembly body  11  may be rigidly connected. 
     In some embodiments, the lens assembly body  11  is composed of at least one lens  112  and a lens barrel  111  capable of accommodating at least one lens, and is usually fixed to a vehicle body to assist a driver to obtain a clear field of vision, and at the same time may provide reliable evidence for judgement in traffic accidents. Therefore, the imaging quality of the lens assembly body  11  is essential. In order to enable the lens assembly body  11  to automatically defog and deicing in a cold and humid environment to ensure the imaging quality, the present embodiment has the heater  12  fixed and installed on the lens assembly body  11 . 
     In some embodiments, the lens barrel  111  of the lens assembly body  11  is provided with a protruding portion, the protruding portion is an annular platform arranged in a circular direction around the lens barrel  111 , and a diameter of the protruding portion is slightly larger than a diameter of the lens barrel  111 . The protruding portion may be a flange, which may be used to position or fix when the lens assembly body  11  is connected to the controller  14 . 
     In some embodiments, the heater  12  may be arranged in the lens barrel and acts directly on the lens. The heater  12  may include a heating unit  123  and a conductive unit. Illustratively, the heating unit  123  is arranged on an edge or non-optical area of the lens  122 ; and the conductive unit includes at least two power supply lines  120 . The heating unit  123  may be composed of a temperature sensor (not shown) and a heat generating element (not shown). The temperature sensor detects a temperature of the environment in which the lens assembly body  11  is located in real time, and transmits the detected temperature value to the controller  14  in the form of an electrical signal. The controller  14  compares the received temperature value with a predetermined threshold. When the ambient temperature is lower than a first preset threshold, the controller  14  sends a heating command to the heater  12  in the form of an electrical signal. In response to receiving the heating command sent by the controller  14 , the heat generating element in the heater  12  begins heating works to generate heat. 
     Further, when the temperature sensor senses in real time that the ambient temperature of the lens assembly body  11  exceeds a second preset threshold, that is, when it is proved that the lens  112  may not fog or freeze at the current ambient temperature, the controller  14  sends a command to the heater  12  to stop heating. When the heater  12  receives the command from the controller  14  to stop heating, the heat generating element stops heating. 
     The heater  12  and the controller  14  need to be electrically connected to achieve interaction of the above electrical signals, then it is necessary to connect the power supply line  120  of the heater  12  to an output end  141  of the controller  14 . However, the position of the power supply line  120  of the heater  12  is constrained by the structure and positional relationship between the heater  12  and the lens assembly body  11 , and thus cannot be adjusted based on the position of the output end  141  of the controller  14 , and the position of the output end  141  of the controller  14  is not fixed. In order to avoid installation difficulties caused by mismatch between a lead-out position of the power supply line  120  of the heater  12  and the position of the output end  141  of the controller  14 , the present embodiment provides the structural member  13  for connecting the heater  12  and the controller  14 . 
       FIG.  10    is an enlarged view of an area μl of  FIG.  9   ; and  FIG.  11    is a schematic structural diagram of a structural member in a lens assembly module of an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in  FIGS.  10  and  11   , the structural member  13  includes a first conductive end  131 , a second conductive end  132  and a structural member body  133 . The first conductive end  131  may, for example, be arranged on a side of the structural member body  133 , and has a positive electrode  1311  or a negative electrode  1312  electrically connected to the controller  14 ; the second conductive end  132  may be arranged on another side of the structural member body  133 , and has a positive electrode  1321  or a negative electrode  1322  electrically connected to the heater  12 . Illustratively, the positive electrode  1311  or the negative electrode  1312  of the first conductive end  131  is a rigid rod, such as a copper rod. 
     In order to enable the controller  14  to connect to the heater  12 , the first conductive end  131  is arranged at a position that matches the position of the output end  141  of the controller  14 . Illustratively, the controller  14  includes a printed circuit board (PCB). Since the position of the output end  141  of the controller  14  is randomly set based on a specific model, it is necessary to first accurately determine the position of the output end  141  of the controller  14 , and find the position matching the position of the output end  141  of the controller  14  on the structural member body  133 , then fixedly connect the first conductive end  131  to the structural member body  133  by means such as welding. 
     The first conductive end  131  may be configured to position when the structural member  13  is connected to the controller  14 , which makes assembly of the lens assembly module more accurate and convenient. 
     In some embodiments, the connection between the first conductive end  131  and the output end  141  of the controller  14  may include: welding connection, or piercing connection. As shown in  FIG.  9   , the first conductive end  131  and the output end  141  of the controller  14  are welded and connected, the first conductive end  131  runs through the output end  141  of the controller  14 , and is welded and fixed to ensure stability of its connection. 
     Referring to  FIGS.  9  and  11   , the controller  14  may be regarded as a first device, and the heater  12  arranged on the lens assembly body  11  may be regarded as a second device. The first device and the lens assembly body  11  need to be installed together. Due to different types and models of the first device, the position of the output end  141  on the first device is different. With assistance of the structural member  13  provided in the present disclosure, the first device and the second device may be accurately positioned during installation. 
     A first terminal (the first conductive end  131 ), the structural member body  133 , and a second terminal (the second conductive end  132 ) are fixedly connected. The fixed connection may be rigid. The position of the first terminal is set in response to fixed positions of the structural member body  133  and the first device, the position of the second terminal is set in response to fixed positions of the structural member body  133  and the second device, and the first terminal and the second terminal are connected communicatively through the structural member body  133 . Further, the controller  14  may be used as an external power supply for the heater  12 , thereby supplying power to the heater  12 . 
     The structural member  13  is configured to transmit commands output from the first device to the second device. The first device may transmit signals, such as electrical signals or optical signals, to the second device. The structural member  13  is also conducive to enhancing firmness of the first device and the second device after the installation. The first terminal is rigid and its material may be a conductive material. The first terminal may also be an electric conductive channel formed by setting a conductive material in a substrate of a dielectric material, or may be an optical channel formed by setting a refractive material in the substrate of the dielectric material. Further, the first terminal and the first device are electrically connected or communicated in other ways. At the same time, the second terminal is communicatively connected with the second device. 
     Illustratively, the structural member body  13  has a mounting axis L. The structural member body  13  may have multiple mounting positions after rotating along the mounting axis L, and may be used to connect to the lens assembly body  11 . The structural member body  13  may also have only one mounting position. When the structural member body  13  is fixedly connected to the lens assembly body  11 , the mounting axis L may coincide with an optical axis of the lens assembly body  11 . 
     Illustratively, the first terminal is a rigid pin header. The rigid pin header may be solid or hollow. The rigid pin header has a good degree of position when installed to the first device. When the rigid pin header is used for conducting electricity, an output end of the first device may be a pad hole. The rigid pin header is rigidly connected and may be electrically connected to the pad hole. Further, the rigid pin header may be welded to the pad hole. 
       FIG.  12    is a schematic diagram of a shape of a first conductive end in a lens assembly module of an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure; and  FIG.  13    is a schematic diagram of a shape of a first conductive end in a lens assembly module of another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. 
     In some embodiments, in order to make the first conductive end  131  and the output end  141  of the controller  14  more easily fixedly connected, as shown in  FIG.  12   , the first conductive end  131  may be set to a polygonal needle shape. Or as shown in  FIG.  13   , the first conductive end  131  may be set as a rectangular sheet shape. Alternatively, the shape of the first conductive end  131  may be a combination of the rectangular sheet shape and the polygonal needle shape. Of course, an extension length of the first conductive end  131  is short. The polygonal needle shape may be circular needle shape, rectangular needle shape, hexagonal needle shape, etc. In addition, the first conductive end  131  must be made of metal. Compared with the power supply line  120 , this short needle shape or sheet shape metal connection end has strong rigidity and is easy to be connected and fixed to the output end  141  of the controller  14 . 
     In some embodiments, the second conductive end  132  is arranged on a side of the structural member body  133 , and is located on a different side from the first conductive end  131 . A shape of a first electrical contact area of the second conductive end  132  and the structural member body may be at least one of: dot shape, closed loop shape, and/or broken loop shape. Since the electrodes of the second conductive end  132  include the positive electrode  1321  and the negative electrode  1322 , the first electrical contact area of the structural member body and the second conductive end  132  is also divided into a first positive electrode area  1331  and a first negative electrode area  1332 . 
       FIG.  14    is a structural diagram of a structural member body in a lens assembly module of an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure;  FIG.  15    is a top view of  FIG.  14   ;  FIG.  16    is a structural diagram of a structural member body in a lens assembly module of another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure;  FIG.  17    is a top view of  FIG.  16   ;  FIG.  18    is a structural diagram of a structural member body in a lens assembly module of an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure; and  FIG.  19    is a top view of  FIG.  18   . 
     As shown in  FIGS.  14  and  15   , the shapes of the first electrical contact area  1331 - 1332  of the second conductive end  132  and the structural member body  133  are closed loop shapes. The first electrical contact areas  1331 - 1332  of the structural member body  133  and the second conductive end  132  is arranged on a second end surface  1333  of the structural member body  133  itself. The second end surface  1333  of the present embodiment may be an end surface facing away from the controller. In order to match a position of the first electrical contact areas  1331 - 1332  of the structural member body  133 , the second conductive end  132  is also fixed on the second end surface  1333  of the structural member body  133  when it is in electrical contact with the structural member body  133 . When the position of the heater  12  provided in the lens assembly body  11  has an uncertain position based on a different model, then the position of the power supply line  120  is different, any position on the second end surface  1333  of the structural member  13  may be used to electrically connect the power supply line  120  and be fixed. This arrangement of the structural member  13  makes the connection between the heater  12  and the controller  14  more convenient. The first conductive end  131  may be arranged on a first end surface  1336 , and electrically connected to the second conductive end  130 . 
     Further, the structural member body  133  may include an outer peripheral surface  1334  and an inner peripheral surface  1335 . The installation position of the structural member body  133  on the lens assembly body  11  may be adjusted. For example, the structural member body  133  is arranged on a radial outer side of the optical axis of the lens assembly body  11  and is integrally formed with the lens assembly body  11 . In this regard, the structural member body  133  may not have the inner peripheral surface  1335 . 
     As shown in  FIGS.  16  and  17   , the shape of the first electrical contact area  1331 - 1332  of the second conductive end  132  and the structural member body  133  is closed loop shape. The first electrical contact areas  1331 - 1332  of the structural member body  133  and the second conductive end  132  are arranged on the inner peripheral surface  1335  of the structural member body  133  itself. In order to match the position of the first electrical contact areas  1331 - 1332  of the structural member body  133 , the second conductive end  132  is also fixed on the inner peripheral surface  1335  of the structural member body  133  when it is in electrical contact with the structural member body  133 . When the position of the heater  12  provided in the lens assembly body  11  has an uncertain position based on a different model, then the position of the power supply line  120  is different, any position on the inner peripheral surface  1335  of the structural member  13  may be used to electrically connect the power supply line  120  and be fixed. The arrangement of the structural member  13  makes the connection between the heater  12  and the controller  14  more convenient. The first conductive end  131  may be arranged on the first end surface  1336 , and electrically connected to the second conductive end  132 . 
     As shown in  FIGS.  18  and  19   , the shape of the first electrical contact area of the second conductive end  132  and the structural member body  133  is closed loop shape. The first positive electrode area  1331  of the structural member body  133  is arranged on the second end surface  1333  of the structural member body  133 , and the first negative electrode area  1332  is arranged on the inner peripheral surface  1335  of the structural member body  133 . In order to match the position of the first electrical contact area of the structural member body  133 , the positive electrode  1321  is also arranged on the second end surface  1333  of the structural member body  133 , and fixedly connected to the positive electrode area  1331 , when the second conductive end  132  is in electrical contact with the structural member body  133 . Similarly, the negative electrode  1322  of the second conductive end  132  may be arranged on the inner peripheral surface  1335  of the structural member body  133 , and is fixedly connected to the first negative electrode area  1332 . When the position of the heater  12  provided in the lens assembly body  11  has an uncertain position based on a different model, then the position of the power supply line  120  is different, any position on the inner peripheral surface  1335  of the structural member  13  may be used to electrically connect a negative electrode power supply line and be fixed; any position on the second end surface  1333  of the structural member  13  may be used to electrically connect a positive electrode power supply line and be fixed. The arrangement of the structural member  13  makes the connection between the heater  12  and the controller  14  more convenient. The first conductive end  131  may be arranged on the first end surface  1336 , and electrically connected to the second conductive end  132 . 
     The positions of the first positive electrode area  1331  and the first negative electrode area  1332  of the structural member body  133  may exchange as required. Correspondingly, the positions of the positive electrode  1321  and the negative electrode  1322  of the second conductive end  132  also exchange, which is not limited herein. 
     Of course, the form of the first electrical contact areas  1331 - 1332  of the structural member body  133  is limited by a structural shape of the structural member body  133 , so that the number and shape of each electrode of the second conductive end  132  are also limited by the structural shape of the structural member body  133 . Illustratively, the shape of the second conductive end  132  includes: a polygonal needle shape, a rectangular sheet shape, or a combination of the polygonal needle shape and the rectangular sheet shape. 
     Illustratively, the first conductive end  131  is arranged on the first end surface  1336  of the structural member body  133 , in particular, fixed to a position corresponding to the output end  141  of the controller  14 . The first conductive end  131  may be a pin header, etc., electrically connected to the first electrical contact area through electrical contact and/or concealed wiring. Illustratively, the structural member body  133  includes a conductive portion, and the conductive portion along both ends of the mounting axis may be used as a first electrical connection area and a second electrical connection area. 
     In an exemplary embodiment, the structural member body  133  is provided with a second electrical contact area, and the second electrical contact area may include a second positive electrode area and a second negative electrode area.

       FIG.  20    is a schematic diagram of connection between a second conductive end and a power supply line in a lens assembly module of an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure; and  FIG.  21    is a schematic diagram of connection between a second conductive end and a heater power supply line. 
     As shown in  FIG.  20   , the second conductive end  132  is provided with a recess capable of electrical contact with the power supply line  120  of the heater  12 . In some embodiments, the second conductive end  132  is provided on the structural member body  133 , and is located on a different side from the first conductive end  131 . The second conductive end  132  may be connected to the heater through welding interconnection, or piercing connection. As shown in  FIG.  21   , a diameter of the recess of the second conductive end  132  is slightly smaller than a diameter of the power supply line  120 . The power supply line  120  consists of a metal wire  121  and an insulating sheath  122  wrapping the metal wire  121 . Since the insulating sheath  122  is soft in texture and easy to be pierced, when the power supply line  120  is connected to the second conductive end  132 , the insulating sheath  122  of the power supply line  120  is pierced by the second conductive end  132 , so that the metal wire  121  is exposed to the recess of the second conductive end  132 , and clamped tightly by the recess. Inevitably, the second conductive end  132  is made of metal. When the second conductive end  132  clamps the metal wire  121  tightly, fixed connection between the structural member  13  and the heater  12  is realized. Further, the structural member  13  and the heater  12  may perform information interaction through electrical signals, avoiding the heater  12  from drawing the power supply line  120  to the outside of the lens assembly body  11  in open wiring, which in turn leads to confusion of the wires of the lens assembly module and affects the assembly efficiency. 
     In some embodiments, the structural member body  133  is arranged between the first conductive end  131  and the second conductive end  132  in the present disclosure, which is used to integrate an electrical signal transmission line. The electrical signal transmission line is arranged in the form of concealed wiring inside the structural member body  133 , avoiding the heater  12  from drawing the power supply line  120  to the outside of the lens assembly body  11  in open wiring, which in turn leads to confusion of the wires of the lens assembly module and affects the assembly efficiency. 
     In some embodiments, the structural member  13  is fixed to the lens assembly body  11  through the structural member body  133 . 
       FIGS.  22  to  25    are schematic diagrams of a structural member fixed to different positions of a lens assembly body in a lens assembly module of an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure.  FIG.  22    is a schematic diagram of the structural member body  133  embedded to an outer wall surface of the lens assembly body  11 .  FIG.  23    is a schematic diagram of the structural member body  133  embedded to a bottom surface of the lens assembly body  11 .  FIG.  24    is a schematic diagram of the structural member body  133  embedded to a side edge of a protruding part of a protruding portion of the lens assembly body  11 .  FIG.  25    is a schematic diagram of the structural member body  133  embedded in a bore of the lens assembly body  11 . That is, the structural member body  133  may be arranged on the outer wall surface of the lens barrel, the bottom surface of the lens barrel, the side edge of the protruding part of the protruding portion or the bore of the lens assembly body  11 . The specific set position may be selected based on its relative position with the controller  14 , etc., and a fixed position is not limited, making it convenient for producers to choose according to their needs. 
     In some embodiments, due to differences in the structure of different lens assembly bodies  11 , in order to match the shapes of different lens assembly bodies  11 , the shape of the structural member body  133  may also be set in a variety of styles. 
       FIGS.  26  to  29    are schematic diagrams of a shape of a structural member body in a lens assembly module of an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure.  FIG.  26    is a schematic structural diagram of the structural member body  133  in a circular shape.  FIG.  27    is a schematic structural diagram of the structural member body  133  in a rectangular ring shape.  FIG.  28    is a schematic structural diagram of the structural member body  133  being a combination of a circular ring shape and a tangent shape.  FIG.  29    is a schematic structural diagram of the structural member body  133  in a broken ring shape. That is, the shape of the structural member body  133  may be set to the circular ring shape, the rectangular ring shape, the combination of the circular ring shape and the tangent shape, or a broken ring shape. Of course, the shape of the structural member body  133  needs to be determined based on the shape of the lens assembly body  11 , so that the structural member  13  can be firmly connected to the lens assembly body  11 , avoid increasing assembly difficulty due to an unfit shape. In order to ensure that the structural member  13  can match the position of the power supply line  120  of the heater  13  and the position of the output end of the controller  14 , the shape of the structural member body  133  must be set in a ring shape, so that the conductive end of the structural member  13  may be fixed at any position in a circumferential direction of the structural member body  133  in the ring shape. Of course, if the lens assembly body  11  is in other shapes, then the specific ring shape of the structural member body  133  may also be set accordingly, which is not limited herein. 
     In some embodiments, the fixing between the lens assembly  11  and the structural member body  133  may be: hole shaft interference fitting, hot riveting, broken ring snap fixation, snap hook fitting, dispensing fixing and screw locking fixing, etc. As long as the lens assembly body  11  can be fixed firmly to the structural member body  133 , producers can assemble according to their own conditions, and the specific fixation is not limited herein. 
     Further, the two sides of the structural member body  133  are also used to fix the conductive end. Since the lead-out position of the power supply line  120  of the heater  12  is randomly set, the position of the output end of the controller  14  is also set randomly according to its different models, in order to match the lead-out position of the power supply line  120  of the heater  12  and the position of the output end of the controller  14 , in the present embodiment, the position of the conductive end of the structural member body  133  may be fixed and installed according to the actual situation. 
       FIG.  30    is a schematic diagram of a position of a second conductive end on a structural member body in a lens assembly module an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure; and  FIG.  31    is a schematic diagram of a position of a first conductive end on a structural member body in a lens assembly module an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in  FIG.  30   , a first angle α is an inclined angle between the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the second conductive end  132 . The first angle α is an inclined angle of the two electrodes in a plane perpendicular to the optical axis relative to the optical axis. In order to match the lead-out position of the power supply line  120  of the heater  12  in different positions, a degree value of the first angle α may be adjusted between 0 degrees and 360 degrees so that connectivity between the structural member  13  and the heater  12  is not constrained by the position of the connection ends. 
     Similarly, as shown in  FIG.  31   , a second angle β is an inclined angle between the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the first conductive end  131 . In order to match the output end of the controller  14  in different positions, a degree of the second angle β may be adjusted between 0 degrees and 360 degrees so that connectivity between the structural member  13  and the controller  14  is not constrained by the position of the connection ends. 
     In some embodiments, the structural member body  133  may be selected from materials of less mass such as plastic, such that an overall weight of the lens assembly module is not significantly increased after the inclusion of the structural member  13  in the lens assembly module. The lens assembly module provided in the present embodiment is an optical apparatus, and other types of optical apparatuses including the structural member  13  may also be obtained without departing from the teachings of the present embodiment. 
       FIG.  32    is a flowchart of a method for manufacturing a lens assembly module of an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. 
     As shown in  FIG.  32   , based on the above lens assembly module, the present disclosure also provides a method  1000  for manufacturing a lens assembly module, including: 
     Step S 1 , setting up a heater for generating heat to heat a lens assembly body. 
     Step S 2 , setting up a controller for generating a control command that controls the heater to generate the heat. 
     Step S 3 , setting up a structural member fixedly connected to the lens assembly body. 
     Step S 4 , connecting the controller to the structural member rigidly fixedly, where the structural member is configured to transmit the control command generated by the controller to the heater. 
     The method  1000  for manufacturing a lens assembly module is applied to manufacturing of the lens assembly module in the above embodiment, where, specific embodiment of each component of the lens assembly module is described in detail in the above description of the embodiment of the lens assembly module, detailed description thereof will be omitted. 
     In an embodiment, the structural member includes: a structural member body, a first conductive end, and a second conductive end. The structural member body includes a first electrical contact area and the second conductive end is electrically connected to the first electrical contact area. The step S 3  includes: 
     fixedly connecting the structural member body to the lens assembly body. 
     electrically connecting the second conductive end to the heater. A position of the second conductive end is determined based on a position of a power supply line of the heater. The second conductive end is then fixedly connected to the power supply line, and thus the second conductive end is electrically connected to the heater. 
     fixing the second conductive end at a position in the first electrical contact area corresponding to the heater. 
     fixing the first conductive end at a position in a second electrical contact area corresponding to an output end of the controller, where the second conductive end is electrically connected to the first conductive end through the structural member body; 
     rigidly electrically connecting the first conductive end to the output end of the controller, to receive the control command from the controller. 
     Illustratively, when fixing the structural member body, the structural member body may be fixed in response to a fixed connection position of the lens assembly body and the heater, so that the second conductive end corresponds to the position of the power supply line. 
     Illustratively, when fixing the first conductive end, the first conductive end may be fixed in the aforementioned position in response to a fixed connection position of the lens assembly body and the controller. 
     Further, based on styles of the structural member body, the first conductive end and the second conductive end, the structural member body may be connected to the lens assembly body, and the second conductive end may be connected to the heater through corresponding different methods. 
     The method  1000  for manufacturing a lens assembly module of the present disclosure, accurately positions the first conductive end of the structural member based on the position of the output end of the controller, and accurately positions the second conductive end of the structural member based on the position of the power supply line of the heater, then connects the heater and the controller through the structural member, thus avoiding the situation in the prior art where assembly of the heater and the controller is impossible due to mismatch between the lead-out position of the power supply line of the heater and the position of the output end of the controller, thereby reducing the difficulty of assembling the heating lens assembly and the controller, and improving the assembly efficiency and production capacity of the heating lens assembly and the controller. 
     In addition, the heater is connected to the controller by providing the structural member having a rigid conductive end, which reduces the difficulty of assembling the heater and the controller, and at the same time avoids uncontrollability of the power supply line of the heater, and guarantees stability of the heater and the controller after the assembly. 
     Referring to  FIG.  33   , illustrating a schematic diagram of the lens assembly  1000  according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. 
     The lens assembly  1000  may include a lens component  1100 , a lens barrel  1200 , a heating unit  1300 , and a connection component  1400 . The connection component  1400  may be a conductive unit. 
     The lens component  1100  may include at least one lens for adjusting and spreading light, thereby facilitating an imaging or projection action of the lens assembly. For example, the lens component  1100  may include a first lens  1110  and a second lens  1120  arranged opposite each other, where the first lens  1110  and the second lens  1120  may be bonded together by a bonding material. Light may incident along the first lens  1110  to the second lens  1120 , or may incident along the second lens  1120  to the first lens  1110 . 
     The lens barrel  1200  may be connected to a non-optical area of the lens component  1100  to fix the lens component  1100 . For example, the lens barrel  1200  may be connected to the non-optical area of the first lens  1110  and the second lens  1120  to fix the first lens  1110  and the second lens  1120 . 
     The heating module  1300  may be arranged in the non-optical area of the lens component  1100 . The heating module  1300  may be arranged in the non-optical area of a lens closest to the external environment in the lens component  1100 . For example, in the lens assembly  1000  shown in  FIG.  33   , the heating module  1300  may be arranged in a non-optical area of the first lens  1110  that is close to the external environment. Arranging the heating module  1300  in the non-optical area of the lens component  1100  facilitates a defogging and defrosting effect on the lens assembly without affecting light spreading. In addition, by arranging the heating module  1300  in the non-optical area of the lens component  1100 , it may effectively avoid problems such as oversized overall structure of the lens assembly  1000  and restricted installation space. 
     The connection component  1400  may be connected to the heating module  1300  through the lens barrel  1200 , where the connection component  1400  is adapted to be connected to an external power source so as to supply power to the heating module  1300 . For example, the connection component  1400  may pass through the lens barrel  1200  and then be connected to the heating module  1300  by welding. The connection component  1400  may include a first connection component  1410  and a second connection component  1420 , where the first connection component  1410  and the second connection component  1420  may pass through both sides of the lens barrel  1200  and then be connected to the heating module  1300 , where the first connection component  1410  and the second connection component  1420  are connected to the external power source so as to supply power to the heating module  1300 , to allow the heating module  1300  to generate heat to remove fog or ice crystals generated on the surface of the lens assembly. Illustratively, the first connection component  1410  and the second connection component  1420  may be wires having protective sleeves. 
     In an exemplary embodiment, the heating module  1300  may include the first film layer  1310 , the heating layer  1320 , and the second film layer  1330 , arranged in sequence. Illustratively, the first film layer  1310  and the second film layer  1330  may be made of polyimide (PI) material. Illustratively, the first film layer  1310  and the second film layer  1330  may be PI films made of polyimide (PI) material. The heating layer  1320  may serve as the aforementioned heat generating element. For example, the heating layer  1320  may be made of at least one metal foil material, such as rolled copper foil (RA copper foil), electrolytic copper foil, Constantan copper foil (copper-nickel alloy), and/or stainless steel. For example, the heating layer  1320  may be a wire-shaped heating wire made of at least one metal foil material, such as rolled copper foil, electrolytic copper foil, Constantan copper foil, and/or stainless steel. The heating layer  1320  may be a heating wire formed, in the non-optical area of the first lens  1110 , by at least one wire shape of a circular shape, a bow shape, a zigzag shape, and a circular ring shape. It should be understood that the present disclosure does not limit the set shape of the heating layer, and any shape that meets the requirements may be designed according to the actual situation. the spacing H 1  and the width H 2  of the wire-shaped heating wire each may be greater than or equal to 0.02 mm. In the present disclosure, the metal foil may be etched to form the wire-shaped heating wire by an etching process. As shown in  FIG.  34 A , the metal foil may be etched to form a circular heating wire circuit. As shown in  FIG.  35 B , the metal foil may be etched to form a bow-shaped heating wire circuit. As shown in  FIG.  35 C , the metal foil may be etched to form a zigzag-shaped heating wire circuit. As shown in  FIG.  35 D , the metal foil may be etched to form a circular ring-shaped heating wire circuit. It should be understood that the heating module  1300  provided in the present disclosure may be set by reasonably setting the shape of the heating layer  1320 , to meet a resistance requirement for the heating layer  1320  in practical applications, and thus heating uniformity of the heating module  1300  may be ensured. The resistance of the heating layer  1320  is R=ρL/S, p is resistivity of the heating layer, L is a length of the heating wire, and S is a cross-sectional area of the heating wire, i.e., S=width W*thickness T. When actually designing the circuit of the heating layer, it is necessary to consider the resistivity ρ, the thickness T, the width W, and the length L of the heating wire of the metal foil material made into the heating layer, and then control a size of the resistance R and a shape of a pattern into which the heating wire is set. According to the formula P=U 2 /R, when voltage provided by the external power supply is certain, a heating power of the heating layer may be controlled by controlling the resistance R. 
     The first film layer  1310  and the second film layer in the heating module  1300  may be PI films. The heating layer  1320  may be formed by performing an etching process on the metal foil to form the heating wire. The first connection component  1410  and the second connection component  1420  may be wires having protective sleeves. The first connection component  1410  and the second connection component  1420  may pass through the lens barrel  1200  and then be connected to the heating module  1300  by welding. The electrodes of the first connection component  1410  and the second connection component  1420  may be obtained by etching a lead out end of the heating wire, and positions of the electrodes are partially uncovered with PI films, to form an electrode that can be externally connected. It should be understood that the present disclosure does not limit the electrodes and the lead-out method the wires, according to the actual situation, it is possible to design any electrode and wire lead-out method to meet the requirements. Due to excellent solderability of chemical gold, in the present disclosure, chemical gold processing may be performed on surfaces of the electrodes, that is, through chemical method, a layer of thick nickel-gold alloy having good electrical properties may be wrapped around the copper surface. The nickel-gold alloy may be quickly merged into the melted solder, and the solder forms a Ni/Sn metal compound with Ni, for welding the connection component  1400  and the heating module  1300 .

In other words, the first connection component  1410  and the second connection component  1420  may be connected to an inner side of ring in the non-optical area where the heating module  1300  is provided, respectively.

     It should be understood that, in practical applications, the position where the first connection component and the second connection component lead out in the heating layer depends on the design of a graphic arrangement of the heating wire inside the heating layer. The positions of the first connection component and the second connection component lead out in the heating layer may be arranged either at the end of the heating layer, i.e., the outer end of the heating layer close to the non-optical area of the lens or the inner end of the heating layer away from the non-optical area of the lens, or may be arranged inside of the heating layer. Illustratively, the first connection component and the second connection component may be used as two leads of the conductive unit, further, as a positive power supply line and a negative power supply line, respectively. 
     In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in  FIGS.  39 A to  39 C , the heating module  1300  provided in the present disclosure may be folded and arranged in the non-optical area of the lens. The first film layer  1310  and the second film layer  1330  may be films made of PI material, which may be arbitrarily folded to form a multi-layer heating module. By connecting the multi-layer heating wire in series, the resistance of the heating layer  1320  may be increased. In addition, the multi-layer folded heating module may be connected to each other by means of glue, tape, etc. As shown in  FIG.  39 A , the heating module  1300  includes a PI film, a heating wire, and a PI film, arranged in sequence, where the PI film, the heating wire, and the PI film are bonded together using a glue  10 , etc. As shown in  FIG.  39 B , the heating module  1300  is formed by folding a first heating module  100  and a second heating module  200  opposite each other along an X axis, where the heating wire of the first heating module  100  and the heating wire of the second heating module  200  are connected in series. The first heating module  100  and the second heating module  200  are bonded together using the glue  10  or other adhesives. As shown in  FIG.  39 C , the heating module  1300  is formed by folding the first heating module  100 , the second heating module  200 , and a third heating module  300  together in sequence along the X axis and a Y axis, where the heating wire of the first heating module  100 , the heating wire of the second heating module  200 , and the heating wire of the third heating module  300  are connected in series. The first heating module  100  and the second heating module  200  are bonded together using glue or other adhesives, and the second heating module  200  and the third heating module  300  are bonded together using glue or other adhesives. It should be noted that in the present disclosure, when bending the multi-layer heating wire, the position(s) where the bending occurs is contiguous so that the multi-layer heating wires are conductive. It should be understood that the heating module provided in the present disclosure is not limited to a heating module with less than three layers, the above presentation is only an example, is not intended to strictly limit the number of layers of the heating module, in practical applications, the number of layers of the heating module may be set reasonably according to the specific condition. For example, in practical applications, there are often situations where an arrangement width (area) for the heating module is limited, and actual requirements cannot be achieved by controlling the resistance of the heating wire only, in this regard, the resistance requirement may be achieved by stacking several times to increase the area where the heating wire can be arranged. 
     In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in  FIGS.  40 A to  40 C , the heating module  1300  provided in the present disclosure may be stacked and arranged in the non-optical area of the lens. As shown in  FIG.  40 A , the heating module  1300  includes the first film layer  1310 , the heating layer  1320 , and the second film layer  1330 , arranged in sequence, where the first film layer  1310  does not completely cover the heating layer  1320 . As shown in  FIG.  40 B , a heating module  2300  includes a first film layer  2310 , a heating layer  2320 , and a second film layer  2330 , arranged in sequence, where the second film layer  2330  does not completely cover the heating layer  2320 . As shown in  FIG.  40 C , the heating module  1300  and the heating module  2300  are stacked to form a heating module  3300 . The first film layer  1310  and the second film layer  2330  may be bonded together by glue. In this regard, the electrodes of the heating layer  1320  and the heating layer  2320  may be electrically connected in series by, e.g., electric conductive adhesive and electric conductive tape, thus achieving the effect of stacking multiple heating layers. The first film layer  2310  and the second film layer  2330  provided in the present disclosure may be films made of PI material, which may be arbitrarily stacked to form multiple layers of heating modules. The multiple layers of stacked heating modules may be connected to each other by means of glue, tape, etc. The electrodes of the multi-layer heating module may be electrically connected by, e.g., electric conductive adhesive and electric conductive tape. 
     In an exemplary embodiment, the heating module  1300  may have thereon an aperture marking, and a notch marking, or an aperture marking and a notch marking. In actual production of the heating module, multiple heating modules are usually integrated on one sheet of material and subsequently cut out through processes such as stamping, laser cutting, which tends to confuse the multiple heating modules. The heating module provided in the present disclosure can identify a heating module in demand by designing a different marking on the heating module. As shown in  FIG.  41 A , one or more round hole markings 1 may be designed on the heating module  1300 .
