Technical Field
[0001] This disclosure relates to a light shield and an imaging lens, and more particularly to a light shield and an imaging lens used in a portable electronic device. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, portable electronic devices have developed rapidly, such as smart electronic devices and tablet computers, which have become ubiquitous in modern life. As a result, imaging lenses and their light shields mounted on portable electronic devices have also flourished. However, with the advancement of technology, users have increasingly higher requirements for the quality of light shields.
[0003] Specifically, the multiple light-blocking structures of a light-blocking plate can reduce noise interference from imaging lenses in strong light source scenarios. Increasing the protrusion height of the light-blocking structure can improve the imaging lens's noise resistance in strong light source scenarios. However, this can also easily lead to excessive light blocking of the imaging lens, resulting in a decrease in image quality. Therefore, developing a light-blocking plate that can improve excessive light blocking and has noise resistance capabilities in strong light source scenarios has become an important and urgent problem for the industry.

[0087] This disclosure provides a light-shielding sheet comprising a central opening and a plurality of light-shielding structures. A central axis passes through the central opening, and the light-shielding structures are arranged around an inner circumferential surface of the central opening. The light-shielding structures gradually taper from the central opening towards the central axis and define a circumscribed circle and an inscribed circle. The ends of the plurality of inscribed circles of the light-shielding structures near the central axis are connected to the inscribed circle, and the ends of the plurality of circumscribed circles of the light-shielding structures away from the central axis are connected to the circumscribed circle. A light-transmitting portion is formed between the inscribed circle and each light-shielding structure, and a light-shielding portion is formed between the circumscribed circle and each light-shielding structure. The radius of the inscribed circle is Ri, the radius of the circumscribed circle is Ro, the area of the circumscribed circle minus the area of the inscribed circle is AA, the area of the light-transmitting portion is A1, and the area of the light-shielding portion is A2, which satisfy the following conditions: 34 μm ≤ Ro-Ri ≤ 157 μm; AA = A1+A2; and 0.9 ≤ A1 / A2 ≤ 5.4. Specifically, the light-shielding plate disclosed herein improves image quality and enhances noise reduction by controlling the area ratio of the light-shielding part to the light-transmitting part, thus solving the problem of excessive light blocking caused by the excessively high protrusion height of conventional light-shielding plates. This allows for faithful reproduction of the scene's appearance and low-noise imaging even under harsh environmental conditions. Specifically, harsh environmental conditions can include scenes facing strong light sources or scenes with low ambient light levels.
[0088] Furthermore, the light-shielding structure can be composed of straight or curved segments, and the inner and outer circular ends of the light-shielding structure can each be an endpoint, or they can each be a curved segment coinciding with the inner or outer circle. This prevents excessive light blocking by the light-shielding structure, thereby improving image quality.
[0089] The light-shielding sheet and the light-shielding structure can be molded as a single piece, thereby increasing manufacturing efficiency and making it suitable for mass production.
[0090] The surface of the light-shielding sheet may include a matting layer. Furthermore, the material of the light-shielding sheet can be metal or composite material. Metal materials may undergo sandblasting, ink coating, or film plating, while composite materials may be composed of multiple layers stacked together, such as a strip made by sandwiching plastic layers between two layers of black carbon-containing material, but this is not a limitation. This further enhances the noise reduction capability of the light-shielding sheet in strong light source environments.
[0091] Each light-transmitting portion of the light-shielding structure may include at least one arc segment, and the center of curvature of the arc segment is located inside the inscribed circle. The concave arc of the light-shielding structure facing the inscribed circle increases the area of the light-transmitting portion, thereby improving the relative illumination.
[0092] The radius of the inscribed circle is Ri, and the radius of the circumscribed circle is Ro, which can satisfy the following condition: 46 μm ≤ Ro-Ri ≤ 112 μm. This further enhances the light-blocking effect of the light-blocking structure.
[0093] The radius of the inscribed circle is Ri, the radius of the circumscribed circle is Ro, and the distance between adjacent ends of the inscribed circle is L. This distance satisfies the following condition: 0.27 ≤ (Ro-Ri) / L ≤ 1.32. This prevents adjacent shading structures from being too close together, thus avoiding excessive shading.
[0094] The number of light-shielding structures is N, which can satisfy the following condition: 28 ≤ N ≤ 93. This can prevent the light-shielding sheet from over-shielding and maintain noise resistance in strong light source scenes.
[0095] The area of the light-transmitting part is A1, and the area of the light-blocking part is A2, which satisfies the following condition: 1.05 ≤ A1 / A2 ≤ 3.4. This further improves image quality and reduces noise interference in both strong and low light environments.
[0096] The various technical features of the light-shielding sheet disclosed herein can be combined and configured to achieve the corresponding effects.
[0097] This disclosure provides an imaging lens comprising the aforementioned light-shielding plate and at least two optical lenses, wherein the optical lenses and the light-shielding plate are disposed within a lens barrel along a central axis. The imaging lens has a first field of view, FOV1, which satisfies the following condition: 18 degrees ≤ FOV1 ≤ 51 degrees. Excessive light shading can be reduced through the imaging lens with a small field of view.
[0098] This disclosure provides an electronic device comprising at least two imaging lenses having different viewing angles. One of the imaging lenses is a first imaging lens, and the first imaging lens has a first viewing angle. The first imaging lens includes at least one light-shielding plate, wherein the light-shielding plate includes a central opening and a plurality of light-shielding structures. A central axis of the first imaging lens passes through the central opening, and the light-shielding structures are disposed around an inner circumferential surface of the central opening. The light-shielding structures taper from the central opening toward the central axis and define a circumcircle and an incircle. The ends of the plurality of incircles of the light-shielding structures near the central axis are connected to the incircle, and the ends of the plurality of circumcircles of the light-shielding structures away from the central axis are connected to the circumcircle. The first viewing angle is FOV1, the radius of the incircle is Ri, and the radius of the circumcircle is Ro, which satisfy the following conditions: 18 degrees ≤ FOV1 ≤ 51 degrees; and 34 μm ≤ Ro-Ri ≤ 157 μm. Specifically, the first imaging lens may be a telephoto lens with a narrow viewing angle. The first imaging lens has the characteristic of a small angle of light incidence, which can further reduce excessive shading.
[0099] Furthermore, the electronic device includes imaging lenses with different viewing angles. When one of them has a specific imaging angle, and through the light-blocking structure of the light-blocking plate, the imaging lens can achieve a similar level of image quality when switching scenes, even in more demanding shooting conditions. Therefore, when using shooting functions with continuously changing viewing angles, it is less likely to cause drops in image quality or a sense of lag, and a better shooting experience can be maintained.
[0100] Furthermore, the light-shielding structure can be composed of straight or curved segments, and the inner and outer circular ends of the light-shielding structure can each be an endpoint, or they can each be curved segments coinciding with the inner or outer circle. This prevents excessive light blocking by the light-shielding structure, thereby improving image quality. Moreover, it can faithfully reproduce the scene's appearance under harsh environmental conditions to obtain images with low noise interference. Specifically, harsh environmental conditions can be scenes facing strong light sources or scenes with low ambient light levels.
[0101] The light-shielding sheet and the light-shielding structure can be molded as a single piece, thereby increasing manufacturing efficiency and making it suitable for mass production.
[0102] The surface of the light-shielding sheet may include an matting layer. This further enhances the noise reduction capability of the light-shielding sheet in strong light source scenarios.
[0103] Each light-transmitting portion of the light-shielding structure may include at least one arc segment, and the center of curvature of the arc segment is located inside the inscribed circle. The concave arc of the light-shielding structure facing the inscribed circle increases the area of the light-transmitting portion, thereby improving the relative illumination.
[0104] The other of the imaging lenses can be a second imaging lens, and the second imaging lens has a second field of view, FOV2, which can satisfy the following condition: 68 degrees ≤ FOV2 ≤ 175 degrees. Specifically, the second imaging lens can be a wide-angle lens or an ultra-wide-angle lens. Furthermore, the electronic device can achieve optical zoom by switching between imaging lenses with different field of view.
[0105] The number of imaging lenses can be at least three, one of which can be a third imaging lens, and the third imaging lens has a third field of view, FOV3, which can satisfy the following conditions: 5 degrees ≤ FOV3 ≤ 22 degrees. Specifically, the third imaging lens can be an ultra-telephoto telephoto lens. Furthermore, the electronic device can achieve optical zoom by switching between imaging lenses with different field of view.
[0106] The first imaging lens may further include at least two optical lenses, one of which has the largest outer diameter. There may be multiple light-blocking plates, and one of the light-blocking plates has a central opening with the smallest inner diameter. The largest outer diameter of one of the optical lenses is φMax, and the smallest inner diameter of the central opening of one of the light-blocking plates is φmin, which satisfies the following condition: 0.29 ≤ φmin / φMax ≤ 0.79. This results in better image quality.
[0107] The maximum outer diameter of one of the optical lenses is φMax, and the effective focal length of the first imaging lens is EFL, which can satisfy the following condition: 0.8 ≤ EFL / φMax ≤ 4.2. This allows for the attainment of better image quality.
[0108] The first-person perspective is FOV1, which satisfies the following condition: 22 degrees ≤ FOV1 ≤ 40 degrees. This further mitigates the problem of excessive shading.
[0109] The radius of the inscribed circle is Ri, and the radius of the circumscribed circle is Ro, which can satisfy the following condition: 46 μm ≤ Ro-Ri ≤ 112 μm. This further enhances the light-blocking effect of the light-blocking structure.
[0110] The radius of the inscribed circle is Ri, the radius of the circumscribed circle is Ro, and the distance between adjacent ends of the inscribed circle is L. This distance satisfies the following condition: 0.27 ≤ (Ro-Ri) / L ≤ 1.32. This prevents adjacent shading structures from being too close together, thus avoiding excessive shading.
[0111] The number of light-blocking structures is N, which satisfies the following condition: 28 ≤ N ≤ 93. This prevents excessive light blocking by the light-blocking structures and maintains the noise resistance of the first imaging lens in strong light source scenes.
[0112] The area between the inscribed circle and each light-shielding structure can form a light-transmitting portion, and the area between the circumscribed circle and each light-shielding structure can form a light-shielding portion. The area of the circumscribed circle minus the area of the inscribed circle is AA, the area of the light-transmitting portion is A1, and the area of the light-shielding portion is A2. This satisfies the following conditions: AA = A1 + A2; and 0.9 ≤ A1 / A2 ≤ 5.4. This achieves the effect of eliminating stray light and controls the area of the light-shielding portion to avoid excessive light blocking. Furthermore, it satisfies the following condition: 1.05 ≤ A1 / A2 ≤ 3.4. This further improves image quality and reduces noise interference in both strong and low light environments.
[0113] The various technical features in the electronic device disclosed herein can be combined and configured to achieve the corresponding effects.
[0114] Based on the above implementation methods, specific embodiments are presented below and described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0115] <First Embodiment>
[0116] Please refer to Figure 1A It illustrates a schematic diagram of the imaging lens 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1A It is known that the imaging lens 100 includes at least one light shield, at least two optical lenses and a lens barrel 130, wherein the optical lenses and the light shield are disposed in the lens barrel 130 along a central axis O of the imaging lens 100.
[0117] In detail, the imaging lens 100, from the object side to the image side, includes an optical lens 121, a light-blocking plate 111, an optical lens 122, a light-blocking plate 112, an optical lens 123, a light-blocking plate 113, an optical lens 124, a light-blocking plate 114, and an optical lens 125. It must be noted that the number, structure, surface shape, and other optical characteristics of the optical lenses can be configured according to different imaging requirements and are not limited thereto.
[0118] Please refer to Figure 1B and Figure 1C ,in Figure 1B Drawing according to Figure 1A A schematic diagram of the light-shielding sheet 112 in the first embodiment. Figure 1C Drawing according to Figure 1B A partially enlarged view of the light-shielding sheet 112 in the first embodiment. (From...) Figure 1B and Figure 1CIt is understood that the light-shielding sheet 112 includes a central opening 141 and multiple light-shielding structures 142, wherein the central axis O passes through the central opening 141, and the light-shielding structures 142 are arranged around an inner circumferential surface of the central opening 141, and the light-shielding structures 142 gradually taper from the central opening 141 toward the central axis O. Specifically, the light-shielding structures 142 are composed of arc segments.
[0119] The light-shielding structure 142 defines a circumcircle 143 and an inscribed circle 144. The plurality of inscribed circle ends 152 of the light-shielding structure 142 near the central axis O are connected to the inscribed circle 144, and the plurality of circumcircle ends 151 of the light-shielding structure 142 away from the central axis O are connected to the circumcircle 143. Furthermore, the inscribed circle end 152 is an arc segment coinciding with the inscribed circle 144, while the circumcircle end 151 is an endpoint tangent to the circumcircle 143.
[0120] A light-transmitting portion 145 is formed between the inner circle 144 and each light-shielding structure 142, and a light-shielding portion 146 is formed between the outer circle 143 and each light-shielding structure 142.
[0121] By controlling the area ratio of the light-transmitting part 145 to the light-blocking part 146, excessive light blocking by the light-blocking structure 142 can be avoided, thereby improving the imaging quality of the imaging lens 100. Furthermore, it can faithfully reproduce the scene appearance under harsh environmental conditions to obtain imaging with low noise interference.

Specifically, the telephoto lens 711 is characterized by a narrow angle of view and a small angle of light incidence, which can further reduce excessive light shading. Furthermore, by switching between imaging lenses with different angles of view, the electronic device 70 can achieve optical zoom functionality. It must be noted that the lens cover 72 is only used to illustrate the telephoto lens 711, ultra-wide-angle lens 712, ultra-telephoto lens 713, and wide-angle main lens 714 inside the electronic device 70, and does not indicate that the lens cover 72 is detachable. Specifically, the telephoto lens 711 can be the imaging lens of the first to sixth embodiments described above, but is not limited thereto.
[0188] The electronic device 70 also includes an electronic photosensitive element 73 and a user interface 74, wherein the electronic photosensitive element 73 is disposed on the imaging surface of the telephoto lens 711, the ultra-wide-angle lens 712, the ultra-telephoto lens 713 and the wide-angle main lens 714 (not shown in the figure), and the user interface 74 may be a touch screen or a display screen, and is not limited thereto.
[0189] Furthermore, the user enters the shooting mode through the user interface 74 of the electronic device 70. At this time, the telephoto lens 711, the ultra-wide-angle lens 712, the super telephoto lens 713, and the wide-angle main lens 714 converge the imaging light onto the electronic image sensor 73 and output the relevant electronic signal of the image to the image signal processor (ISP) 75.
[0190] Depending on the camera specifications of the electronic device 70, the electronic device 70 may further include an optical image stabilization component 76, which may be an OIS image stabilization feedback device. Furthermore, the electronic device 70 may also include at least one auxiliary optical element (not shown) and at least one sensing element 77. In the seventh embodiment, the auxiliary optical element is a flash module 78 and a focus assist module 79. The flash module 78 can be used to compensate for color temperature, and the focus assist module 79 may be an infrared rangefinder, a laser focus module, etc. The sensing element 77 can have the function of sensing physical momentum and kinetic energy, such as an accelerometer, gyroscope, or Hall effect element, to sense the shaking and tremors caused by the user's hand or the external environment. This facilitates the autofocus function and optical image stabilization component 76 of the imaging lenses (i.e., telephoto lens 711, ultra-wide-angle lens 712, super telephoto lens 713, and wide-angle main lens 714) in the electronic device 70, resulting in good image quality. This helps the electronic device 70 according to the present invention to have multiple shooting modes, such as optimized Selfie, low-light HDR (High Dynamic Range) imaging, and high-resolution 4K (4K Resolution) video recording. In addition, the user can directly view the camera's shooting screen from the touch screen and manually operate the framing on the touch screen to achieve a WYSIWYG autofocus function.
[0191] In addition, the electronic device 70 may also include, but is not limited to, a display unit, a control unit, a storage unit, a random access memory (RAM), a read-only memory (ROM), or a combination thereof.
[0192] In detail, the telephoto lens 711 has a first perspective, the wide-angle main lens 714 and the ultra-wide-angle lens 712 have a second perspective, and the super telephoto lens 713 has a third perspective, wherein the first perspective is FOV1, the second perspective is FOV2, and the third perspective is FOV3, and the parameters satisfy the conditions in Table 7 below.
[0193]
[0194] Furthermore, the structure and configuration of the remaining components in the seventh embodiment are the same as those in the first to sixth embodiments, and will not be described again here.
[0195] Although the present invention has been disclosed above by way of embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone skilled in the art can make some modifications and refinements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be determined by the scope defined in the appended claims.
