Description

Technical Field

[0001] Cross-reference to related inventions

[0002] This application claims priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2022-0086796, filed on July 14, 2022, with the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference for all purposes.

[0003] The following description relates to an imaging lens system that can be mounted in a camera with a wide field of view (FOV). Prior Technology

[0004] Recently manufactured vehicles are equipped with cameras to significantly reduce liability for personal injury and property damage caused by traffic accidents. For example, one or more cameras can be mounted on the front and rear bumpers of a vehicle to provide the driver with information about objects positioned in front of and behind the vehicle. Since accurately identifying objects around the vehicle and providing that information to the driver is crucial for vehicle cameras, imaging lens systems with high resolution and wide field of view are required.

[0005] However, due to limitations in installation location, it may be difficult to install imaging lens systems with high resolution and wide field of view in vehicle cameras. For example, in order to implement a vehicle camera with a low f-number, the diameter of the foreground lens and other lenses should be relatively large, but due to the structural and design limitations of the vehicle components on which the camera is mounted (e.g., bumpers), it may be difficult to arbitrarily change the size of the lenses.

[0028] The following detailed description is provided to aid the reader in gaining a comprehensive understanding of the methods, apparatus, and / or systems described herein. However, various variations, modifications, and equivalents of the methods, apparatus, and / or systems described herein will become apparent upon understanding the inventive scope of this invention. For example, the order of operations described herein is merely illustrative and is not limited to the order set forth herein, but the order of operations may be altered, except for those operations that must occur in a particular order, as will become apparent upon understanding the inventive scope of this invention. Furthermore, for clarity and brevity, descriptions of features known after understanding the inventive scope of this invention may be omitted; note that the omission of features and their descriptions is not intended to acknowledge their common knowledge.

[0029] The features described herein may be embodied in different forms and should not be construed as limited to the instances described herein. Rather, only the instances described herein are provided to illustrate some of the many possible ways of implementing the methods, apparatus, and / or systems described herein that will become apparent upon understanding the inventive scope of the invention.

[0030] Although terms such as "first," "second," and "third" may be used herein to describe various components, assemblies, areas, layers, or sections, such components, assemblies, areas, layers, or sections are not limited to these terms. In fact, these terms are used only to distinguish one component, assembly, area, layer, or section from another. Therefore, without departing from the teaching of the examples described herein, the first component, assembly, area, layer, or section referred to in the examples may also be called the second component, assembly, area, layer, or section.

[0031] Throughout this specification, when an element such as a layer, region, or substrate is described as being "on" another element, "connected to" another element, or "coupled to" another element, the element may be directly "on" another element, "connected to" another element, or "coupled to" another element, or there may be one or more other elements intervening therebetween. Conversely, when an element is described as being "directly above" another element, "directly connected to" another element, or "directly coupled to" another element, there may be no other elements intervening therebetween. Similarly, expressions such as "between" and "immediately between" and "adjacent to" and "next to" are also to be understood as described above.

[0032] The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular instances only and is not intended to limit the invention. As used herein, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular form "a / an" and "the" are intended to include the plural form as well. As used herein, the term "and / or" includes any one of the associated listed items and any combination of two or more of them. As used herein, the terms "comprising," "including," and "having" specify the presence of the features, numbers, operations, elements, components, and / or combinations thereof specified in the statement, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, numbers, operations, elements, components, and / or combinations thereof. In this document, the use of the term "may" (e.g., with respect to what an instance or embodiment may include or implement) with respect to an instance or embodiment means that there exists at least one instance or embodiment that includes or implements this feature, but not all instances are limited thereto.

[0033] Unless otherwise defined, all terms used herein, including technical and scientific terms, shall have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains upon understanding of the invention. Terms (such as those defined in common dictionaries) are to be interpreted as having the same meaning as they have in the context of the relevant art and the invention, and are not to be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense, unless expressly so defined herein.

[0034] One or more examples provide an imaging lens system that has high resolution and a wide field of view while significantly reducing changes in lens size.

[0035] In this example, the first lens refers to the lens closest to the object (or individual), and the seventh lens refers to the lens closest to the imaging plane (or image sensor). In this example embodiment, the radius of curvature, thickness, TTL (distance from the object-side surface of the first lens to the imaging plane), ImgHT (height of the imaging plane), focal length, and effective radius are indicated in millimeters (mm).

[0036] Lens thickness, inter-lens gap, and TTL refer to the distance of the lens along the optical axis. Furthermore, in the description of lens shape, a convex surface configuration indicates that the paraxial region of the corresponding surface is convex, and a concave surface configuration indicates that the paraxial region of said surface is concave. Therefore, even when describing a lens with one convex surface, the lens edge can still be concave. Similarly, even when describing a lens with one concave surface, the lens edge can still be convex.

[0037] The imaging lens system described herein can be configured for mounting on a transport device. For example, the imaging lens system can be mounted on a front and rear surveillance camera or an autonomous driving camera mounted on a car, truck, van, fire truck, forklift, or the like. However, the scope and examples of use of the imaging lens system described herein are not limited to the aforementioned devices. For example, the imaging lens system can be mounted on an image capture camera used to monitor or transport drones or the like.
