Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of infrared temperature measurement thermal imagers, and in particular to a long-wave infrared athermal wide-angle temperature measurement lens. Background Art
[0002] Infrared temperature measurement thermal imagers can realize non-contact long-distance temperature measurement and fault detection. They are safe and accurate, efficient and time-saving, the results are simple and intuitive, and they can work around the clock. They are widely used in industrial inspection, temperature monitoring in the petrochemical industry, power equipment monitoring, and fire hazard monitoring in key occasions.
[0003] The thermal imaging temperature measurement lens is the core component of the infrared temperature measurement thermal imager. Its imaging performance directly affects the temperature measurement accuracy and consistency of the infrared temperature measurement thermal imager. At present, domestic developers of online and handheld temperature measurement thermal imagers all use standard fixed-focus temperature measurement lenses (horizontal field of view 6° / 12° / 24° / 48°) to achieve temperature measurement. The temperature measurement accuracy can reach ±2°C or ±2% (national standard), which can basically meet the needs of the low-end industrial temperature measurement market.
[0004] However, in the field of temperature measurement of infrared imaging, due to the limitation of detection distance, the thermal radiation field of ambient temperature will affect the lens. Changes in ambient temperature will cause changes in the refractive index of the lens material. Thermal expansion and contraction of the lens barrel material will also change the air gap of the lens, causing changes in optical focal length and displacement of the optimal position of the image plane, resulting in reduced contrast and brightness, and ultimately a decline in image quality.
[0005] At the same time, the existing infrared imaging lenses for temperature measurement still have the following problems: high cost and small temperature measurement field of view, which restricts the application scope of infrared imaging lenses for temperature measurement.
[0006] For example, CN 201811617398.8 discloses a long-wave infrared pinhole wide-angle temperature measurement lens and an imaging method thereof, wherein the lens comprises: each lens set for imaging after the light passes through the meniscus positive lens A1, meniscus positive lens A2, meniscus positive lens A3, meniscus positive lens B1, and meniscus positive lens B2 from left to right in sequence. The structure requires the use of at least 5 lenses, resulting in an increase in the overall size, an increase in manufacturing costs, and a decrease in light transmittance, which affects the imaging quality. Moreover, the imaging of this lens cannot avoid the adverse effects of ambient temperature on the imaging quality. At the same time, the lens also has the problem of too long total optical length (total optical length TTL≤72mm), resulting in a low overall integration of the lens, which cannot meet the use requirements of miniaturization. At the same time, the working performance of the lens at different temperatures has not been tested, and its actual normal operating temperature range cannot be determined.
[0007] The information disclosed in the background technology section is only intended to enhance the understanding of the overall background of the invention and should not be regarded as an admission or any form of suggestion that the information constitutes the prior art already known to a person skilled in the art.

[0064] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.
[0065] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the invention claimed for protection, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0066] The technical means that are not described in detail in this application and are not used to solve the technical problems of this application are all set according to the common knowledge in the field, and can be implemented in a variety of common knowledge settings.
[0067] See also Figures 1 to 12 The long-wave infrared athermal wide-angle temperature measurement lens provided by the present application includes: a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, an aperture STOP, a fourth lens, and a filter, which are optically connected in sequence along the optical axis from the object side to the image side.
[0068] The object side surface of the first lens is convex, and the image side surface is concave; the object side surface of the second lens is convex, and the image side surface is concave; the object side surface of the third lens is concave, and the image side surface is convex; the object side surface of the fourth lens is convex, and the image side surface is convex.
[0069] In addition, the long-wave infrared athermal wide-angle temperature measurement lens involved in this embodiment meets the requirement of configuring an aperture between the third lens and the fourth lens, which is convenient for controlling the aperture number F of the lens to reach 1.0, and can reduce the entry of stray light from the lens. The filter is set in the long-wave uncooled detector and connected to the optical path of the fourth lens; IMA is the image plane of the long-wave uncooled detector.
[0070] By adopting the design of the first lens to the fourth lens, the number of lenses used is reduced, the production cost is reduced, and the simplified lens combination can ensure that the horizontal viewing angle reaches more than 90° and the aperture number is less than or equal to 1.0. In addition, the total optical length of the lens is less than or equal to 50mm, realizing a lightweight structural design, and the total weight of the lens is less than 120g, achieving the goal of miniaturization of the lens. At the same time, by utilizing the advantages of optical athermalization and active and passive focus compensation of the electric adjustment system, higher imaging quality can be obtained under complex ambient temperatures. "Total optical length" refers to the distance from the first object side surface of the object side lens in the lens to the final imaging surface.
[0071] In a specific embodiment, the optical system lens assembly is installed in a lens barrel, the pressing ring 1 fixes the first lens in the lens barrel, and the pressing ring 2 fixes the second lens and the third lens in the lens barrel.
[0072] A spacer is set between the second lens and the third lens to separate them, and the pressure ring 3 fixes the fourth lens in the focusing frame. The motor is installed on the outer wall of the lens and is connected to the cam barrel drive. By driving the cam barrel to rotate, the cam barrel drives the focusing frame of the fourth lens to move back and forth along the central axis of the barrel to realize the active focusing function of the lens. The aperture STOP is installed on the end face of the barrel so that the aperture STOP is set between the third lens and the fourth lens.
[0073] The first lens is fixed in the lens barrel by the pressing ring 1, the second lens and the third lens are fixed in the lens barrel by the pressing ring 2, wherein the second lens and the third lens are separated by the spacer ring, and the fourth lens is fixed in the lens frame by the pressing ring 3. The motor drives the cam barrel to rotate, and the cam barrel drives the lens frame to move back and forth along the lens barrel.
[0074] As shown in the attached figure Fig.11 and Fig.12 As shown, topology optimization is used to lightweight the main lens barrel and cam barrel, which effectively controls the overall quality of the lens. By taking advantage of optical athermalization and the electric adjustment system, the lens can perform passive and active focusing compensation under a certain temperature environment, thereby improving the overall comprehensive performance of the lens and enabling it to adapt to more complex temperature measurement environments.

[0087] By using the above parameters to control the thermal expansion coefficient of the lens, the lens can be made optically athermal, reducing the impact of high and low temperature environments on the lens. This ensures that the imaging performance of the lens is not affected by changes in ambient temperature, maintaining image clarity and stability.
