Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of optics, and more particularly to a lens device. Background Art
[0002] Figure 1 Schematic diagram of a lens device in the prior art. Figure 1 As shown, the lens device 1 includes: a prism module 11, which is used to reflect the light incident from the second direction Y to the first direction X; a lens module 12, which has an optical axis along the first direction X; and an image sensing unit 13. The lens module 12 can be, for example, a telephoto lens module. As the telephoto multiple of the telephoto lens module increases, its effective focal length (EFL) also increases exponentially. Due to the thickness limitation of the lens device 1, when the effective focal length of the lens module 12 increases exponentially while the effective incident area remains unchanged, its aperture becomes smaller, resulting in the light incident on the image sensing unit 13 being unacceptably dark, which will have a significant adverse effect on imaging.

[0060] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0061] Figure 2A is a schematic diagram of a first embodiment of a lens device according to the present invention. Figure 2A As shown, in the first embodiment, the lens device 100 includes: a reflection module 110; a lens module 120 having an optical axis along a first direction X; a light splitting module 130 for splitting the light from the lens module 120 into a first, a second and a third light beam, wherein the first, the second and the third light beam have different wavelength ranges, and can be, for example, one of red, green and blue light; and an image sensing module 140, including a first light beam image sensing unit 141, a second light beam image sensing unit 142 and a third light beam image sensing unit 143 for sensing the first, the second and the third light beams, respectively. The lens device 100 may further include an optical path turning module 150 disposed between the lens module 120 and the light splitting module 130 on the optical path.
[0062] The reflection module 110 may include: a reflection unit, such as a reflection prism or a reflection mirror, for reflecting the light incident from the second direction Y to the first direction X; a reflection unit carrier for fixing the reflection unit; and a reflection unit fixing seat for carrying the reflection unit carrier. The reflection surface of the reflection unit preferably includes a metal layer, such as a metal layer formed by aluminum (Al) or silver (Ag), etc. The manufacturing method of the metal layer is not limited, including but not limited to plating, printing, coating, etc. The metal layer can avoid color deviation and halo phenomenon during imaging, so that the lens device can improve color deviation and effectively concentrate the point light source to obtain good imaging quality.
[0063] The lens module 120 may be, for example, a zoom lens module, which changes its focal length by moving different lenses along the optical axis. The lens module 120 may include: a lens unit fixing seat; a lens unit having an optical axis along a first direction X; a lens unit carrier, which carries the lens unit and is connected to the lens unit fixing seat. In a preferred embodiment, the lens unit carrier can move relative to the lens unit fixing seat in at least one of the first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z. The third direction Z is perpendicular to the first direction X and the second direction Y. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the lens module 120 may also be, for example, a fixed-focus lens module.
[0064] The optical path turning module 150 includes a first reflection unit 151 and a second reflection unit 152. The first reflection unit 151 includes a first reflection surface 151a, which is used to reflect the light emitted from the lens module 120 to the second reflection unit 152, and the first reflection surface 151a may be at an angle of 45 degrees with the first direction X; the second reflection unit 152 includes a second reflection surface 152a, which is used to reflect the light from the first reflection surface 151a to the light splitting module 130, and the second reflection surface 152a may be perpendicular to the first reflection surface 151a. The first reflection surface 151a and the second reflection surface 152a preferably include a metal layer, such as a metal layer formed by aluminum (Al) or silver (Ag), etc. The manufacturing method of the metal layer is not limited, including but not limited to plating, printing, coating, etc. The metal layer can avoid color deviation and halo phenomenon during imaging, so that the lens device can improve color deviation and effectively concentrate the point light source to obtain good imaging quality.
[0065] The light splitting module 130 includes: a first prism unit 131, a second prism unit 132 adjacent to the first prism unit 131, and a third prism unit 133 adjacent to the second prism unit 132. The first prism unit 131 includes: a first surface 131a for allowing incident light to pass through; a second surface 131b for reflecting the first light beam and allowing the second light beam and the third light beam to pass through, the second surface 131b being coated with a first light splitting film; and a third surface 131c, the third surface 131c can be connected between the first surface 131a and the second surface 131b. After the first light beam is reflected by the second surface 131b to the first surface 131a, it is greater than the critical angle, so it is totally reflected on the first surface 131a and emitted from the third surface 131c. The first light beam image sensing unit 141 is disposed adjacent to the third surface 131c, and is used to receive the first light beam emitted from the third surface 131c and form an image. Among them, the first surface 131a is based on Snell's Law. When light waves propagate from one medium to another medium with a different refractive index, refraction will occur. If the light is incident from a medium with a larger refractive index to a medium with a smaller refractive index, its incident angle exceeds the critical angle, the light will no longer be refracted but will be completely reflected back to the original medium, that is, there is no refracted light but only reflected light, forming a total reflection phenomenon (Total Reflection). The critical angle is the minimum incident angle that causes total reflection to occur. Light that meets the total reflection angle will directly undergo total reflection without penetrating.
[0066] The first dichroic film on the second surface 131 b may be a long-wave pass filter film, which can allow light with a wavelength range of, for example, 400 to 600 nm to pass through, that is, allow blue light and green light to pass through and reflect red light.
[0067] The second prism unit 132 includes: a fourth surface 132a for the second and third light beams to pass through, which is opposite to the second surface 131b, and the fourth surface 132a can be parallel to the second surface 131b and an air gap is left between the two, and the air gap can be, for example, 10 μm; a fifth surface 132b for reflecting the second light beam and allowing the third light beam to pass through, and the fifth surface 132b is coated with a second beam splitting film; and a sixth surface 132c, which can be connected between the fourth surface 132a and the fifth surface 132b, and after the second light beam is reflected by the fifth surface 132b to the fourth surface 132a, it is totally reflected on the fourth surface 132a and emitted from the sixth surface 132c. The second light beam image sensing unit 142 is disposed adjacent to the sixth surface 132c, and is used to receive the second light beam emitted from the sixth surface 132c and form an image.
[0068] The second spectroscopic film on the fifth surface 132b may be a bandpass filter film, which allows light with a wavelength range of, for example, 500 to 600 nm to pass through, that is, allows green light to pass through and red light to reflect. It is understood that the wavelength ranges of the long-wave pass filter film and the bandpass filter film may be adjusted according to demand. For example, the long-wave pass filter film may also allow light with a wavelength range of, for example, 500 to 700 nm to pass through, that is, allows red light and green light to pass through and blue light to reflect. The bandpass filter film may also allow light with a wavelength range of, for example, 400 to 600 nm to pass through, that is, allows green light to pass through and red light to reflect. The spectroscopic wavelength ranges on the first spectroscopic film and the second spectroscopic film may change in accordance with demand, and the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0069] The third prism unit 133 includes a seventh surface 133a for the third light beam to pass through, and an eighth surface 133b for the third light beam to be emitted. The seventh surface 133a is disposed adjacent to the fifth surface 132b. The third light beam image sensing unit 143 is disposed adjacent to the eighth surface 133b, and is used to receive the third light beam emitted from the eighth surface 133b and form an image.
[0070] The first prism unit 131 and the second prism unit 132 may be triangular prisms, for example. Those skilled in the art may understand that the third prism unit 133 is not necessary, and the third light beam image sensing unit 143 may be directly disposed adjacent to the fifth surface 132b of the second prism unit 132 to receive the emitted third light beam.
[0071] The lens device 100 further includes an image synthesis module for synthesizing the images formed by the first light beam image sensing unit 141, the second light beam image sensing unit 142, and the third light beam image sensing unit 143. Image synthesis is a prior art and will not be described in detail herein.
[0072] In the present invention, the light is incident on the reflection module 110 along the second direction Y, and then is reflected by the reflection module 110 along the first direction to the lens module 120. The light emitted from the lens module 120 reaches the first reflection unit 151 of the optical path turning module 150 and is reflected, and then reaches the second reflection unit 152 and is reflected into the first surface 131a of the light splitting module 130; then the first light beam is split on the second surface 131b, the first light beam is reflected, and the second light beam and the third light beam pass through. After the first light beam is reflected by the second surface 131b to the first surface 131a, it is totally reflected on the first surface 131a and emitted from the third surface 131c, and finally reaches the first light beam image sensing unit 141. After the second light beam and the third light beam pass through the fourth surface 132a, the second light beam is split on the fifth surface 132b, the second light beam is reflected, and the third light beam passes through. After the second light beam is reflected by the fifth surface 132b to the fourth surface 132a, it is totally reflected on the fourth surface 132a and emitted from the sixth surface 132c, and finally reaches the second light beam image sensing unit 142. After the third light beam passes through the seventh surface 133a, it is emitted from the eighth surface 133b and finally reaches the third light beam image sensing unit 143.
[0073] The present invention utilizes the light splitting module 130 to split the incident light twice, into the first, second and third light beams, and forms images on the first light beam image sensing unit 141, the second light beam image sensing unit 142 and the third light beam image sensing unit 143 respectively, thereby effectively increasing the image sensing area and sensing the incoming light to the greatest extent. When the lens module has a high telephoto multiple, it can compensate for the problem of insufficient incident light brightness and effectively improve the image quality.
[0074] Figure 2B is an optical path diagram of a first embodiment of a lens device according to the present invention; in one implementation, the first reflection unit 151 and the second reflection unit 152 of the optical path turning module 150 can move in the same direction or in opposite directions along a third direction Z, thereby changing the optical path between the lens module 120 and the image sensing module 140, and realizing auto focus (Auto Focus) and vibration compensation (Optical Image Stabilization) of the lens device 100. Figure 2BThe figure shows a schematic diagram of the optical path of the first reflection unit 151 and the second reflection unit 152 moving away from each other along the third direction Z. The solid line shows the initial positions of the first reflection unit 151 and the second reflection unit 152; the dotted line shows the positions of the first reflection unit 151 and the second reflection unit 152 after they move. The first reflection unit 151 moves a distance L1 in the third direction Z, and the second reflection unit 152 moves a distance L2 in the opposite direction in the third direction Z, so that the two move away from each other. At this time, the optical path between the lens module 120 and the image sensing module 140 increases by ΔS=L1+L2, thereby realizing the automatic focus of the lens device 100. L1 and L2 are absolute values.
[0075] Those skilled in the art can understand that when the values of the reverse movement of L1 and L2 are equal, the light will still move along the path that coincides with the path before the movement after being reflected by the second reflection unit 152. At this time, the imaging position of the light on the image sensing module 140 will not change, and the lens device 100 only realizes automatic focus. When the values of the reverse movement of L1 and L2 are not equal, the light will deviate from the path before the movement after being reflected by the second reflection unit 152. At this time, the imaging position of the light on the image sensing module 140 will deviate, and the distance of deviation relative to the distance before the movement is S=|L1-L2|. Thus, vibration compensation of the lens device 100 in the third direction Z is realized.
[0076] When the first reflection unit 151 and the second reflection unit 152 move in the same direction in the third direction Z, vibration compensation of the lens device 100 in the third direction Z can be achieved.
[0077] However, the present invention is not limited to the above automatic focusing method. In an alternative embodiment, the lens module further includes a driving member for driving the lens unit carrier to move relative to the lens unit fixing seat in the first direction X to achieve automatic focusing.
[0078] In this embodiment, there are several implementations to achieve vibration compensation of the lens device in the second direction Y and the third direction Z, and the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0079] In an optional embodiment, the lens module further includes a driving member (not shown) for driving the lens unit carrier to move relative to the lens unit fixing seat in the second direction Y, thereby achieving vibration compensation in the second direction Y. The lens device 100 further includes a driving member for driving the light splitting module 130 and the image sensing module 140 to move along the third direction Z, thereby achieving vibration compensation in the third direction Z.
[0080] In another optional embodiment, the reflective unit carrier is connected to the reflective unit fixing seat via a rotating shaft along the third direction Z, and the lens device 100 further includes a driving member for driving the reflective unit carrier to rotate along the third direction Z, thereby achieving vibration compensation in the second direction Y. The lens device 100 further includes a driving member for driving the optical path turning module 150 to translate along the first direction X, thereby achieving automatic focusing.
[0081] Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of a second embodiment of a lens device according to the present invention. For the sake of brevity, the same or similar parts as those of the first embodiment will not be described in detail. Figure 3 As shown, in the second embodiment, the lens device 100 includes: a reflection module 110; a lens module 120; a light splitting module 130; and an image sensing module 140. The lens device 100 also includes an optical path turning module 150 disposed between the lens module 120 and the light splitting module 130 on the optical path. The difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment lies in the optical path turning module 150 and the optical path change caused thereby.
[0082] The optical path turning module 150 includes a first reflection unit 153 , a reflection prism unit 154 , and a second reflection unit 155 .
[0083] The first reflection unit 153 includes a front reflection surface 153a, which is used to reflect the light emitted from the lens module 120 to the reflection prism unit 154. The front reflection surface 153a can be at an angle of 45 degrees with the first direction X. The second reflection unit 155 includes a rear reflection surface 155a, which can be perpendicular to the front reflection surface 153a. The front and back here are relative to the order of arrival of the light on the optical path and should not be regarded as a limitation of the present invention. The reflection prism unit 154 includes a first prism unit surface 154a and a second prism unit surface 154b, the first prism unit surface 154a is used to reflect the light entering the reflection prism unit 154 to the second prism unit surface 154b, and the second prism unit surface 154b is used to reflect the light from the first prism unit surface 154a to the rear reflection surface 155a. The rear reflection surface 155a is used to reflect the light to the light splitting module 130. It should be noted that the first reflective unit 153 and the second reflective unit 155 can be an integrally formed single component.
[0084] In this embodiment, the reflective prism unit 154 can move along the third direction Z, thereby changing the optical path between the lens module 120 and the image sensing module 140, and realizing the automatic focusing of the lens device 100. When the reflective prism unit 154 moves L3 along the third direction Z and away from the first reflective unit 153, the optical path between the lens module 120 and the image sensing module 140 will increase by ΔS=2xL3. Wherein L3 is an absolute value. In an optional implementation, the reflective prism unit 154 can also rotate along the second direction Y as the axis to realize vibration compensation of the lens device 100.
[0085] However, the present invention is not limited to the above automatic focusing method. In an alternative embodiment, the lens module further includes a driving member for driving the lens unit carrier to move relative to the lens unit fixing seat in the first direction X to achieve automatic focusing.
[0086] In this embodiment, there may be several implementations to achieve vibration compensation of the lens device in the second direction Y and the third direction, and the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0087] In an optional embodiment, the reflection unit carrier is connected to the reflection unit fixing seat via a rotation axis along the third direction Z, and the lens device 100 further includes a driving member for driving the reflection unit carrier to rotate along the third direction Z, thereby achieving vibration compensation in the second direction Y. The lens device 100 further includes a driving member for driving the reflection prism unit 154 of the optical path turning module 150, or driving the first reflection unit 153 and the second reflection unit 155 of the optical path turning module 150 to move relative to the lens module 120 along the first direction X, thereby achieving vibration compensation in the third direction Z.
[0088] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the two different optical path turning modules 150 in the first and second embodiments are not limited to the embodiments to which they are applied, but can be applied to all embodiments having the optical path turning module 150 .
[0089] Figure 4 FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a third embodiment of a lens device according to the present invention; for the sake of brevity, the same or similar parts as those of the second embodiment are not described in detail. Figure 4 As shown, in the third embodiment, the lens device 100 includes: a reflection module 110; a lens module 120; a light splitting module 130; and an image sensing module 140. The lens device 100 also includes an optical path turning module 150 disposed between the lens module 120 and the light splitting module 130 on the optical path. The difference between the third embodiment and the second embodiment lies in the structure of the light splitting module 130, the arrangement of the image sensing module 140, and the resulting optical path changes.
[0090] like Figure 4As shown, the light splitting module 130 includes: a first prism unit 134, a second prism unit 135 adjacent to the first prism unit 134, and a third prism unit 136 adjacent to the second prism unit 135. The first prism unit 134 includes: a first surface 134a for allowing incident light to pass through; a second surface 134b for reflecting the first light beam and allowing the second and third light beams to pass through, the second surface 134b being coated with a first light splitting film, and the incident light is first split on the second surface 134b; and a third surface 134c, from which the first light beam is emitted. The first light beam image sensing unit 141 is disposed adjacent to the third surface 134c, and is used to receive the first light beam emitted from the third surface 134c and form an image.
[0091] The first dichroic film on the second surface 134 b may be a long-wave pass filter film, which can allow light with a wavelength range of, for example, 500 to 700 nm to pass through, that is, allow green light and red light to pass through and reflect blue light.
[0092] The second prism unit 135 includes: a fourth surface 135a for the second light beam and the third light beam to pass through, which is opposite to the second surface 134b, and the fourth surface 135a can be parallel to the second surface 134b and an air gap is left between the two, and the air gap can be, for example, 10 μm, or can be a gapless bonding method; a fifth surface 135b for reflecting the second light beam and allowing the third light beam to pass through, and the fifth surface 135b is coated with a second beam splitting film, and the second beam splitting is performed on the fifth surface 135b; and a sixth surface 135c, from which the second light beam is emitted. The second light beam image sensing unit 142 is disposed adjacent to the sixth surface 135c, and is used to receive the second light beam emitted from the sixth surface 135c and form an image.
[0093] The second spectroscopic film on the fifth surface 135b may be a bandpass filter film, which can allow light with a wavelength range of 600 to 700 nm to pass, that is, red light to pass. Similarly, it can be understood that the spectroscopic wavelength ranges on the first spectroscopic film and the second spectroscopic film can be changed according to the needs, which has been described in detail in the first embodiment and will not be repeated here.
[0094] The third prism unit 136 includes: a seventh surface 136a for the third light beam to pass through, and an eighth surface 136b for the third light beam to be emitted. The seventh surface 136a is disposed adjacent to the fifth surface 135b. The third light beam image sensing unit 143 is disposed adjacent to the eighth surface 136b, and is used to receive the third light beam emitted from the eighth surface 136b and form an image. It can be understood by those skilled in the art that the third prism unit 133 is not necessary.
[0095] That is, in the third embodiment, the separated first light beam is no longer totally reflected in the first prism unit 134 but is directly emitted, and the separated second light beam is no longer totally reflected in the second prism unit 135 but is directly emitted. The incident light is split twice by the light splitting module 130 into the first, second and third light beams, and images are formed on the first light beam image sensing unit 141, the second light beam image sensing unit 142 and the third light beam image sensing unit 143 respectively.
[0096] exist Figure 4 , the second surface 134b and the fifth surface 135b are at an angle to each other, and the angle may be, for example, 90 degrees, so that the first light beam and the second light beam are reflected in opposite directions. The first light beam image sensing unit 141 and the second light beam image sensing unit 142 are arranged on different sides of the spectroscopic module 130, and the third light beam image sensing unit 143 and the first light beam image sensing unit 141 and the second light beam image sensing unit 142 are arranged on different sides of the spectroscopic module 130, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

At this time, the first light beam image sensing unit 141 and the second light beam image sensing unit 142 are arranged on the same side of the spectroscopic module 130, and the third light beam image sensing unit 143 still maintains being arranged on a different side of the spectroscopic module 130 from the first light beam image sensing unit 141 and the second light beam image sensing unit 142.
[0097] In this embodiment, the reflective prism unit 154 can move along the third direction Z, thereby changing the optical distance between the lens module 120 and the image sensor module 140 to achieve automatic focusing of the lens device 100 .
[0098] However, the present invention is not limited to the above automatic focusing method. In an alternative embodiment, the lens module further includes a driving member for driving the lens unit carrier to move relative to the lens unit fixing seat in the first direction X to achieve automatic focusing.
[0099] In this embodiment, there are several implementations to achieve vibration compensation of the lens device in the second direction Y and the third direction Z, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0102] In this embodiment, the lens module further comprises a driving member for driving the lens unit carrier to move in a first direction X relative to the lens unit fixing seat to achieve automatic focusing.
[0103] In this embodiment, there may be several implementations to achieve vibration compensation of the lens device in the second direction Y and the third direction Z, and the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0104] In an optional embodiment, the reflection unit carrier is connected to the reflection unit fixing seat via a rotation axis along the third direction Z, and the lens module further includes a driving member for driving the reflection unit carrier to rotate along the third direction Z, thereby achieving vibration compensation in the second direction Y. The lens module further includes a driving member for driving the reflection module 110 to move relative to the lens module 120 along the third direction Z, thereby achieving vibration compensation in the third direction Z.

The figure shows a process in which one lens group moves along the optical axis to achieve zooming. The solid line shows the position before zooming, and the dotted line shows the position after zooming, so as to achieve the switching of magnification. Figure 5B The zoom conditions shown are applicable to all embodiments.
[0106] Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of a fifth embodiment of a lens device according to the present invention. For the sake of brevity, the same or similar parts as those of the fourth embodiment are not described in detail. Figure 6 As shown, in the fifth embodiment, the lens device 100 includes: a reflection module 110; a lens module 120; a light splitting module 130; and an image sensing module 140. The fifth embodiment is different from the fourth embodiment in the locations of the light splitting module 130 and the image sensing units of the image sensing module 140.
[0107] exist Figure 6In the embodiment, the second surface 134b, the fourth surface 135a and the fifth surface 135b are parallel to each other. The first light beam and the second light beam are reflected in the same direction. The first light beam image sensing unit 141 and the second light beam image sensing unit 142 are disposed on the same side of the light splitting module 130.
[0108] Figure 7 is a schematic diagram of a sixth embodiment of a lens device according to the present invention. For the sake of brevity, parts identical or similar to those of the fourth embodiment will not be described in detail. Figure 7 As shown, in the sixth embodiment, the lens device 100 includes: a reflection module 110; a lens module 120; a light splitting module 130; and an image sensing module 140. In this embodiment, no light path turning module is provided. The sixth embodiment differs from the fourth embodiment in the light splitting module 130.
[0109] The light splitting module 130 includes: a light incident surface 137 for light to enter the light splitting module 130; a light splitting surface 138, on which a semi-reflective and semi-transmissive film is coated, which splits the incident light into a first light beam and a second light beam, wherein the first light beam passes through and the second light beam is reflected; a first exit surface 139a, from which the first light beam is emitted; and a second exit surface 139b, from which the second light beam is emitted. The image sensing module 140 includes: a first image sensing unit 144, which is disposed adjacent to the first exit surface 139a; a second image sensing unit 145, which is disposed adjacent to the second exit surface 139b; a first filter disposed between the first image sensing unit 144 and the first exit surface 139a, which is used to filter out the red light in the first light beam by utilizing the different wavelength bands of different colors of light; and a second filter disposed between the second image sensing unit 145 and the second exit surface 139b, which is used to filter out the blue light in the second light beam by utilizing the different wavelength bands of different colors of light.
[0110] The light splitting surface 138 may be coated with, for example, a dielectric light splitting film. The first filter may be coated with, for example, a short-wave pass filter film, which allows, for example, light in the wavelength range of 400 to 600 nm to pass, that is, allows blue light and green light to pass, and reflects red light. The second filter may be coated with, for example, a long-wave pass filter film, which allows, for example, light in the wavelength range of 500 to 700 nm to pass, that is, allows green light and red light to pass, and reflects blue light.
[0111] After the red light is filtered out from the first light beam, only GB color (blue, green) light remains. After the red light is filtered out from the second light beam, only GR (green, red) light remains. The image obtained by the first image sensing unit 145 sensing the GB color light and the image obtained by the second image sensing unit 145 sensing the GR light are combined to obtain the final image. The technology of synthesizing images using GB and GR light can refer to the Bayer array.
[0112] This embodiment uses the spectroscopic module 130 to split the incident light into a first light beam and a second light beam, and after filtering, images are formed on the first image sensing unit 144 and the second image sensing unit 145, respectively, which effectively increases the image sensing area and can sense the incoming light to the greatest extent. When the lens module has a high telephoto multiple, it can make up for the problem of insufficient incident light brightness and effectively improve the image quality.

[0126] Fig.10is a schematic diagram of a ninth embodiment of a lens device according to the present invention. This embodiment is an improvement made on the basis of the eighth embodiment. For the sake of brevity, the same or similar parts as the eighth embodiment are not described in detail. Fig.10 As shown, in the ninth embodiment, the lens device 100 comprises: a reflection module 110; a lens module 120; an optical path turning module 150; a light splitting module 130; and an image sensing module 140. Different from the eighth embodiment, in this embodiment, the structure of the optical path turning module 150 is changed.
[0127] The optical path turning module 150 includes a first reflecting unit 151, a second reflecting unit 152 and a third reflecting unit 156.

[0128] In this embodiment, the first reflection unit 151 and the second reflection unit 152 can move along the third direction Z and move in the same direction or opposite directions to each other, thereby changing the optical path between the lens module 120 and the image sensing module 140 to achieve automatic focusing and vibration compensation of the lens device 100.
[0129] However, the present invention is not limited to the above automatic focusing method. In an alternative embodiment, the lens module further includes a driving member for driving the lens unit carrier to move relative to the lens unit fixing seat in the first direction X to achieve automatic focusing.
[0130] In this embodiment, there are several implementations to achieve vibration compensation of the lens device in the second direction Y and the third direction Z, and the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0131] In an optional embodiment, the reflection unit carrier is connected to the reflection unit fixing seat via a rotation axis along the third direction Z, and the lens device 100 further includes a driving member for driving the reflection unit carrier to rotate along the third direction Z, thereby achieving vibration compensation in the second direction Y. The lens device 100 further includes a driving member for driving the optical path turning module 150 to move relative to the lens module 120 along the first direction X, thereby achieving automatic focusing.
[0132] Fig.111 is a schematic diagram of a tenth embodiment of a lens device according to the present invention. This embodiment is an improvement made on the basis of the eighth embodiment. For the sake of brevity, the same or similar parts as the eighth embodiment are not described in detail. Fig.11 As shown, in the tenth embodiment, the lens device 100 comprises: a reflection module 110, a lens module 120, an optical path turning module 150, a light splitting module 130, and an image sensing module 140. Different from the eighth embodiment, the structure of the optical path turning module 150 is changed.
[0133] The optical path turning module 150 includes a first reflecting unit 151 , a second reflecting unit 152 , and a reflecting prism unit 157 . The reflecting prism unit 157 is disposed after the second reflecting unit 152 and before the light splitting module 130 on the optical path, that is, between the second reflecting unit 152 and the light splitting module 130 .
[0134] The reflective prism unit 157 includes: a first prism incident surface 157a, which may be perpendicular to the first direction X; a first prism reflection surface 157c that reflects light; a second prism reflection surface 157b that receives and reflects the light reflected by the first prism reflection surface 157c; and a first prism output surface 157d, which may be parallel to the first direction X. The first prism output surface 157d is adjacent to the light incident surface 137 of the light splitting module 130, and the two may be parallel to each other.
[0135] The first prism incident surface 157a may be coated with a fully dielectric high-transmittance film, which allows more than 98% of light to pass through. The second prism reflection surface 157b and the first prism reflection surface 157c may be coated with a high-reflection film.
[0136] The light is incident on the reflection module 110 along the second direction Y, and then is reflected by the reflection module 110 along the first direction to the lens module 120. The light emitted from the lens module 120 reaches the first reflection unit 151 of the optical path turning module 150 and is reflected, and then reaches the second reflection unit 152 and is reflected into the first prism incident surface 157a of the reflection prism unit 157, and then is reflected on the first prism reflection surface 157c, and reaches the second prism reflection surface 157b and is reflected again, and then is emitted from the first prism exit surface 157d and enters the spectrometer module 130 for spectrometry.
[0137] The reflective prism unit 157 may be, for example, a pentagonal prism. The advantage of using a pentagonal prism is that a longer focal length and a higher magnification optical zoom can be achieved within a limited space. Using a pentagonal prism can compress a long focal length within a limited space.
[0138] In this embodiment, the first reflection unit 151 and the second reflection unit 152 can move along the third direction Z and move in the same direction or opposite directions to each other, thereby changing the optical path between the lens module 120 and the image sensing module 140 to achieve automatic focusing of the lens device 100 and vibration compensation in the first direction X.
[0139] However, the present invention is not limited to the above automatic focusing method. In an alternative embodiment, the lens module further includes a driving member for driving the lens unit carrier to move relative to the lens unit fixing seat in the first direction X to achieve automatic focusing.
[0140] In this embodiment, there are several implementations to achieve vibration compensation of the lens device in the second direction Y and the third direction Z, and the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0141] In an optional embodiment, the reflection unit carrier is connected to the reflection unit fixing seat via a rotation axis along the third direction Z, and the lens device 100 further includes a driving member for driving the reflection unit carrier to rotate along the third direction Z, thereby achieving vibration compensation in the second direction Y. The lens device 100 further includes a driving member for driving the optical path turning module 150 to move relative to the lens module 120 along the first direction X, thereby achieving automatic focusing.
[0142] Fig.12 1 is a schematic diagram of an eleventh embodiment of a lens device according to the present invention. This embodiment is an improvement made on the basis of the seventh and tenth embodiments. For the sake of brevity, the same or similar parts as those of the seventh and tenth embodiments are not described in detail. Fig.12 As shown, in the eleventh embodiment, the lens device 100 comprises: a reflection module 110; a lens module 120; an optical path turning module 150; a light splitting module 130; and an image sensing module 140. Different from the seventh and tenth embodiments, the structure of the optical path turning module 150 is changed.
[0143] The optical path turning module 150 includes a first reflecting prism unit 158 and a second reflecting prism unit 159 .
[0144] The first reflecting prism unit 158 includes: a first prism incident surface 158a, which can be perpendicular to the first direction X; a first prism reflecting surface 158b that reflects light; a second prism reflecting surface 158c that receives the light reflected by the first prism reflecting surface 158b and reflects it; and a first prism exit surface 158d, which can be parallel to the first direction X.
[0145] The first prism incident surface 158a may be coated with a fully dielectric high-transmittance film, which allows more than 98% of light to pass through. The first prism reflection surface 158b and the second prism reflection surface 158c may be coated with a high-reflection film.
[0146] The second reflective prism unit 159 includes: a second prism incident surface 159a, which can be parallel to the first direction X; a third prism reflection surface 159c for reflecting light; a fourth prism reflection surface 159b for receiving and reflecting the light reflected by the third prism reflection surface 159c; and a second prism output surface 159d, which can be perpendicular to the first direction X. The second prism output surface 159d is adjacent to the light incident surface 137 of the light splitting module 130, and the two can be parallel to each other.
[0147] The second prism incident surface 159a may be coated with a fully dielectric high-transmittance film, which allows more than 98% of light to pass through. The third prism reflection surface 159c and the fourth prism reflection surface 159b may be coated with a high-reflection film.
[0148] The light is incident on the reflection module 110 along the second direction Y, and then is reflected by the reflection module 110 along the first direction to the lens module 120. The light emitted from the lens module 120 enters the first prism incident surface 158a of the first reflection prism unit 158, and then is reflected on the first prism reflection surface 158b, reaches the second prism reflection surface 158c and is reflected again, and then is emitted from the first prism exit surface 158d. The light then enters the second prism incident surface 159a of the second reflection prism unit 159, and then is reflected on the third prism reflection surface 159c, reaches the fourth prism reflection surface 159b and is reflected again, and then is emitted from the second prism exit surface 159d and enters the light splitting module 130 for light splitting.
[0149] In this embodiment, the first prism reflection surface 158b forms an obtuse angle with the first direction X, and the second reflection prism unit 159 is located in the negative direction of the third direction Z relative to the first reflection prism unit 158, that is, the first reflection prism unit 158 and the second reflection prism unit 159 are arranged along the third direction Z.
[0150] The first reflecting prism unit 158 and the second reflecting prism unit 159 may be, for example, penta-prisms. The advantage of using two penta-prisms is that the focal length is further increased and a higher magnification optical zoom is performed.
[0151] In this embodiment, the first reflective prism unit 158 and the second reflective prism unit 159 can move in the same direction or in opposite directions along the third direction Z, thereby changing the optical path between the lens module 120 and the image sensing module 140 to achieve automatic focusing of the lens device 100 and vibration compensation in the third direction Z.
[0152] However, the present invention is not limited to the above automatic focusing method. In an alternative embodiment, the lens module further includes a driving member for driving the lens unit carrier to move relative to the lens unit fixing seat in the first direction X to achieve automatic focusing.
[0153] In this embodiment, there are several implementations to achieve vibration compensation of the lens device in the second direction Y and the third direction Z, and the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0154] In an optional embodiment, the reflection unit carrier is connected to the reflection unit fixing seat via a rotation axis along the third direction Z, and the lens device 100 further includes a driving member for driving the reflection unit carrier to rotate along the third direction Z, thereby achieving vibration compensation in the second direction Y.
