Embodiment 2

[0247] A plastic rod lens was manufactured in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the draw ratio was changed to 3.50 times and the relaxation rate was changed to 500 / 700.

[0248] The radius R of the obtained plastic rod lens is 0.187 mm, and the central refractive index is 1.497. The refractive index distribution in the range of 0.2R to 0.8R from the central axis to the outer periphery is similar to formula (5). In the case of a wavelength of 525nm, the refractive index The distribution constant g is 0.84mm -1 .

[0249] Next, it was the same as in Example 1, except that the distance between the plastic rod lenses was changed from 0.37 mm to 0.39 mm, and the adhesive was changed from "Araldite Rapid" to "s-dine 9607K" manufactured by SEKISUI FULLER Co., Ltd. Fabricated to produce a rod lens array.

[0250] The conjugate length Tc of the rod lens array at 525 nm is 10.0 mm, and the MTF at this time is 72.6%.

Abstract

The invention relates to a plastic rod lens provided with a cylindrical shape with a radius R. A refraction factor n is gradually reduced from center axis towards outer peripheral part. And the plastic rod lens meet following requirements (1) to (3): (1) v<1> is more than or equal to 43 and less than or equal to 60; (2) |{nXv / (n-1)}-{nXv / (n-1)}| is less than 5; (3) n<0>-n<1> is more than or equal to 0.01. In the above expressions, n<1>, n<0>, n, and n respectively represents the outer peripheral part, center, refraction factor n at any point A and any point B of the plastic rod lens; and v<1>, v, and v respectively represents the outer peripheral part, Abbe's number v at any point A and any point B of the plastic rod lens.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a plastic rod lens and a rod lens array, a rod lens plate, an image sensor, and a printer that can be used as a light transmission path of a light-concentrating rod lens, an optical sensor, and the like. Background technique [0002] Generally speaking, a plastic rod lens is a lens element made of plastic, has a cylindrical shape, and the refractive index decreases continuously from the center to the outer periphery to form an equal magnification erect image. The plastic rod lens is mirror-ground so that its two ends become parallel planes perpendicular to the central axis, and multiple lenses are closely arranged and bonded into one body. In the form of a rod lens array, it is used as a variety of scanners and copiers such as manual scanners. , fax machines, etc., and are widely used in writing devices for LED printers, etc. The field of use of plastic rod lenses is expanding for reasons such as low cost and compact o...
