Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of optical elements, and specifically, to an imaging lens. Background Art

[0002] The length of the lens has always been an important factor restricting the imaging quality of the lens. However, the thickness of smart phones restricts the lens from being too long, which makes the performance of the lens unable to be fully exerted. The birth of the "retractable lens" has broken through the shackles of the existing optical design of smart phones and significantly improved the imaging quality. The "retractable lens" is in the extended state during the working state, and the lens protrudes from the surface of the mobile phone rear shell. At this time, the lens has a long length and can fully exert high performance; in the non-working state, the lens is in the retracted state, and the lens does not protrude from the surface of the mobile phone rear shell, and there will be no inconvenience when using other functions of the mobile phone.

[0003] The "retractable lens" usually requires a long optical back focal length to achieve the retractable function of the lens. However, in the mainstream trend of miniaturization, the improvement of the performance and the reduction of the size of the image sensor also make the design freedom of the corresponding lens smaller and smaller, increasing the design difficulty of the lens. The contradiction between pursuing a large image plane and shortening the total length of the lens has always existed. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to design a seven-piece imaging lens with a long optical back focal length, a large image plane, and the retractable function of the lens. Summary of the Invention

[0011] In one embodiment, the effective focal length f7 of the seventh lens, the radius of curvature R13 of the object-side surface of the seventh lens, and the radius of curvature R14 of the image-side surface of the seventh lens satisfy: 0.5 <f7 / (R13+R14)<2.5。

[0012] In one embodiment, the radius of curvature R13 of the object side of the seventh lens and the radius of curvature R14 of the image side of the seventh lens satisfy: 0 < (R13 + R14) / (R13 - R14) < 0.8.

[0013] In one embodiment, the radius of curvature R1 of the object side of the first lens, the radius of curvature R4 of the image side of the second lens, the center thickness CT1 of the first lens on the optical axis, and the center thickness CT2 of the second lens on the optical axis satisfy: 5.0 < (R1 + R4) / (CT1 + CT2) < 9.0.

[0014] In one embodiment, the effective half-aperture DT41 of the object side of the fourth lens, the effective half-aperture DT42 of the image side of the fourth lens, and the effective half-aperture DT51 of the object side of the fifth lens satisfy: 1.0 < (DT41 + DT42) / DT51 < 2.0.

[0015] In one embodiment, the edge thickness ET4 at the maximum effective radius of the fourth lens, the edge thickness ET6 at the maximum effective radius of the sixth lens, and the edge thickness ET7 at the maximum effective radius of the seventh lens satisfy: 0 < (ET4 + ET6) / ET7 < 7.0.

[0016] In one embodiment, the distance SAG71 between the intersection of the object side surface of the seventh lens and the optical axis and the vertex of the effective radius of the object side surface of the seventh lens, and the distance SAG72 between the intersection of the image side surface of the seventh lens and the optical axis and the vertex of the effective radius of the image side surface of the seventh lens, satisfy: -0.1 < (SAG71 - SAG72) / (SAG71 + SAG72) < 1.0.

[0017] The seven-element imaging lens proposed in this application combines good image quality, long back focal length, and large image plane characteristics. It can realize the lens extension function. The rational design of the lens surface shape, optical power, thickness of the fourth lens, and the spacing of the fourth and fifth lenses is conducive to balancing aberrations and spherical aberrations, improving the lens resolution, and also helps to improve the stability of lens assembly. The rational design of the image height and optical back focal length of the imaging lens ensures that the lens has a sufficiently large imaging area while having a long optical back focal length, thereby realizing the extension function of the lens.

[0039] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0040] The features, principles and other aspects of this application are described in detail below.

[0041] An imaging lens according to an exemplary embodiment of this application may include seven lenses with optical power, namely a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, a fifth lens, a sixth lens, and a seventh lens arranged sequentially along the optical axis from the object side to the image side. These seven lenses are arranged sequentially along the optical axis from the object side to the image side. Any two adjacent lenses among the first to seventh lenses may have a gap distance between them.

[0042] In an exemplary embodiment, the first lens has positive optical power, the sixth lens has positive optical power, its object side is convex, its image side is convex, and the seventh lens has negative optical power, its object side is concave, and its image side is concave.

[0043] In an exemplary embodiment, the imaging lens according to the present application may satisfy: 2.0 < CT4 / T45 < 9.0, where CT4 is the central thickness of the fourth lens on the optical axis, and T45 is the air gap between the fourth lens and the fifth lens on the optical axis.

[0044] In an exemplary embodiment, the imaging lens according to the present application may satisfy: 1.5 < ImgH / BFL < 3.0, where ImgH is half of the diagonal length of the effective pixel area of the imaging lens, and BFL is the distance from the image side of the seventh lens to the imaging surface of the imaging lens on the optical axis.

[0045] The imaging lens according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application may include seven lenses with optical power, namely, a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, a fifth lens, a sixth lens, and a seventh lens arranged in sequence from the object side to the image side along the optical axis. Among them, the first lens has a positive optical power, the sixth lens has a positive optical power, its object side is convex, and its image side is convex. The seventh lens has a negative optical power, its object side is concave, and its image side is concave. By setting the central thickness CT4 of the fourth lens on the optical axis, the air gap T45 between the fourth lens and the fifth lens on the optical axis, half of the diagonal length ImgH of the effective pixel area of the imaging lens, and the distance BFL from the image side of the seventh lens to the imaging surface of the imaging lens on the optical axis to satisfy: 2.0 < CT4 / T45 < 9.0 and 1.5 < ImgH / BFL < 3.0, by controlling the surface shape, optical power of some lenses reasonably designed, and the ratio of the central thickness of the fourth lens to the air gap between the fourth lens and the fifth lens on the optical axis within a certain range, the thickness and interval distribution of the fourth lens and the fifth lens can be made more reasonable, which is beneficial to balancing aberrations, improving the lens resolution, and at the same time helps to improve the stability of lens assembly; by controlling the ratio of half of the image height of the imaging lens to the distance from the image side of the seventh lens to the imaging surface on the optical axis within a certain range, while ensuring that the lens has a sufficiently large imaging area, the lens can have a long optical back focal length, so as to achieve the telescopic function of the lens. The above settings make the seven-piece imaging lens proposed in the present application have the characteristics of good imaging quality, long back focal length, and large image surface.

[0046] In an exemplary embodiment, at least one of the second lens and the third lens has a negative optical power, and at least one of the fourth lens and the fifth lens has a negative optical power. This setting can make the optical power distribution of the lens more reasonable, effectively balance aberrations, and improve the resolution of the lens.

[0047] In an exemplary embodiment, the imaging lens of the present application may further include an aperture disposed on the object side of the first lens.

[0048] In an exemplary embodiment, the imaging lens according to the present application may satisfy: 1.0 < TTL / ImgH < 2.0, where TTL is the distance on the optical axis from the object side surface of the first lens to the imaging surface of the imaging lens, and ImgH is half of the diagonal length of the effective pixel area of the imaging lens. Satisfying 1.0 < TTL / ImgH < 2.0 controls the ratio of the distance on the optical axis from the object side surface of the first lens to the imaging surface to half of the image height within a certain range. While ensuring that the lens has a sufficient imaging area, the overall optical length of the lens is not too long, which is beneficial to the miniaturization of the lens.

[0049] In an exemplary embodiment, the imaging lens according to the present application may satisfy: 5.0 < (CT4 + CT5 + CT6) / CT7 < 12.5, where CT4 is the central thickness of the fourth lens on the optical axis, CT5 is the central thickness of the fifth lens on the optical axis, CT6 is the central thickness of the sixth lens on the optical axis, and CT7 is the central thickness of the seventh lens on the optical axis. Controlling the ratio of the sum of the central thicknesses of the fourth, fifth, and sixth lenses to the central thickness of the seventh lens within a certain range can make the lens thickness distribution of the fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh lenses more reasonable, which is beneficial to balancing aberrations, improving the lens resolution, and at the same time contributing to improving the stability of lens assembly.

[0050] In an exemplary embodiment, the imaging lens according to the present application may satisfy: 7.5 < f / tan(Semi-FOV) < 11.0, where f is the effective focal length of the imaging lens, and Semi-FOV is half of the maximum field angle of the imaging lens. Satisfying 7.5 < f / tan(Semi-FOV) < 11.0 controls the ratio of the effective focal length of the imaging lens to the tangent value of half of the maximum field angle of the imaging lens within a certain range, which can ensure that the field angle and focal length of the imaging lens are within the optimal range, facilitating the imaging lens to obtain a large image plane feature to obtain a sufficient back focus and making the imaging lens parameters meet the basic requirements.

[0051] In an exemplary embodiment, the imaging lens according to the present application may satisfy: 0.5 < f / (f6 + |f7|) < 1.5, where f is the effective focal length of the imaging lens, f6 is the effective focal length of the sixth lens, and f7 is the effective focal length of the seventh lens. Satisfying 0.5 < f / (f6 + |f7|) < 1.5 controls the effective focal lengths of the sixth and seventh lenses within a certain range, which can make the distribution of the optical power of the lens more reasonable, balance aberrations better, and is beneficial to improving the resolution of the system.

[0052] In an exemplary embodiment, the imaging lens according to the present application may satisfy: 0 < f6 / (R11 - R12) < 1.0, where f6 is the effective focal length of the sixth lens, R11 is the curvature radius of the object side surface of the sixth lens, and R12 is the curvature radius of the image side surface of the sixth lens. Controlling the ratio of the effective focal length of the sixth lens to the difference between the curvature radius of the object side surface of the sixth lens and the curvature radius of the image side surface of the sixth lens within a certain range can make the optical power and shape of the sixth lens more reasonable, contribute to balancing aberrations, improving the lens resolution, and also facilitating the processability of the sixth lens.

[0053] In an exemplary embodiment, the imaging lens according to the present application may satisfy: 0.5 < f7 / (R13 + R14) < 2.5, where f7 is the effective focal length of the seventh lens, R13 is the curvature radius of the object side surface of the seventh lens, and R14 is the curvature radius of the image side surface of the seventh lens. Controlling the ratio of the effective focal length of the seventh lens to the sum of the curvature radius of the object side surface of the seventh lens and the curvature radius of the image side surface of the seventh lens within a certain range can make the optical power and shape of the seventh lens more reasonable, contribute to balancing aberrations, improving the lens resolution, and facilitating the processability of the seventh lens.

[0054] In an exemplary embodiment, the imaging lens according to the present application may satisfy: 0 < (R13 + R14) / (R13 - R14) < 0.8, where R13 is the curvature radius of the object side surface of the seventh lens and R14 is the curvature radius of the image side surface of the seventh lens. Satisfying 0 < (R13 + R14) / (R13 - R14) < 0.8 can make the shape of the seventh lens more reasonable, avoid total reflection ghost images of the seventh lens, and facilitate the processability of the seventh lens.

[0055] In an exemplary embodiment, the imaging lens according to the present application may satisfy: 5.0 < (R1 + R4) / (CT1 + CT2) < 9.0, where R1 is the curvature radius of the object side surface of the first lens, R4 is the curvature radius of the image side surface of the second lens, CT1 is the central thickness of the first lens on the optical axis, and CT2 is the central thickness of the second lens on the optical axis. Controlling the ratio of the sum of the curvature radius of the object side surface of the first lens and the curvature radius of the image side surface of the second lens to the sum of the central thickness of the first lens and the central thickness of the second lens within a certain range can make the thickness distribution and shape of the first lens and the second lens more reasonable, contribute to balancing aberrations, improving the lens resolution, and at the same time help to improve the stability of lens assembly.

[0056] In an exemplary embodiment, the imaging lens according to this application satisfies: 1.0 < (DT41 + DT42) / DT51 < 2.0, where DT41 is the effective half-aperture of the object-side surface of the fourth lens, DT42 is the effective half-aperture of the image-side surface of the fourth lens, and DT51 is the effective half-aperture of the object-side surface of the fifth lens. By controlling the ratio of the effective half-aperture of the object-side surface of the fourth lens and the sum of the effective half-apertures of the image-side surface of the fourth lens to the effective half-aperture of the object-side surface of the fifth lens within a certain range, the effective diameters of the fourth and fifth lenses can be kept from being too large, which is beneficial for the miniaturization of the entire lens.

[0057] In an exemplary embodiment, the imaging lens according to this application satisfies: 0 < (ET4 + ET6) / ET7 < 7.0, where ET4 is the edge thickness at the maximum effective radius of the fourth lens, ET6 is the edge thickness at the maximum effective radius of the sixth lens, and ET7 is the edge thickness at the maximum effective radius of the seventh lens. Controlling the ratio of the sum of the edge thicknesses at the maximum effective radius of the fourth lens and the sixth lens to the edge thickness at the maximum effective radius of the seventh lens within a certain range allows for a more reasonable distribution of the edge thicknesses of the fourth, sixth, and seventh lenses. This improves the lens's manufacturability and facilitates subsequent lens assembly.

[0058] In an exemplary embodiment, the imaging lens according to this application satisfies: -0.1 < (SAG71 - SAG72) / (SAG71 + SAG72) < 1.0, where SAG71 is the distance on the optical axis between the intersection of the object-side surface of the seventh lens and the optical axis, and the vertex of the effective radius of the object-side surface of the seventh lens; SAG72 is the distance on the optical axis between the intersection of the image-side surface of the seventh lens and the optical axis, and the vertex of the effective radius of the image-side surface of the seventh lens. Satisfying -0.1 < (SAG71 - SAG72) / (SAG71 + SAG72) < 1.0 controls the sagitta of the object-side surface and the image-side surface of the seventh lens within a certain range, making the shape of the seventh lens more reasonable, avoiding excessive bending of the lens, and improving the manufacturability of the seventh lens.

[0059] In an exemplary embodiment, at least one of the mirror surfaces of each of the first lens to the seventh lens is an aspherical mirror surface. The present application does not specifically limit the specific numbers of spherical lenses and aspherical lenses. When focusing on the resolution quality, aspherical lenses can be used for all the lenses. The characteristics of an aspherical lens are that the curvature continuously changes from the center of the lens to the periphery of the lens. The characteristics of a spherical lens are that it has a constant curvature from the center to the periphery. An aspherical lens has better curvature radius characteristics and has the advantages of improving distortion aberration and astigmatism aberration. After using an aspherical lens, it is possible to eliminate as much as possible the aberration that occurs during imaging, thereby improving the imaging quality. Optionally, the object side and the image side of each of the first lens to the seventh lens are both aspherical mirror surfaces.

[0060] In an exemplary embodiment, the effective focal length f of the imaging lens can be, for example, in the range of 6.7 mm to 8.8 mm, the effective focal length f1 of the first lens can be, for example, in the range of 7.9 mm to 25.8 mm, the effective focal length f2 of the second lens can be, for example, in the range of -25.8 mm to 30.3 mm, the effective focal length f3 of the third lens can be, for example, in the range of -35.1 mm to 55.1 mm, the effective focal length f4 of the fourth lens can be, for example, in the range of -22.5 mm to 37.1 mm, the effective focal length f5 of the fifth lens can be, for example, in the range of -256.0 mm to 272.0 mm, the effective focal length f6 of the sixth lens can be, for example, in the range of 3.6 mm to 4.5 mm, and the effective focal length f7 of the seventh lens can be, for example, in the range of -4.6 mm to -3.4 mm. The distance TTL from the object side of the first lens to the imaging surface of the imaging lens on the optical axis can satisfy 8.9 mm < TTL < 10.9 mm. The maximum half-field angle Semi-FOV of the imaging lens can be, for example, in the range of 37.1° to 40.2°. The half of the diagonal length of the effective pixel area of the imaging lens ImgH can be, for example, in the range of 5.7 mm to 7.0 mm.

[0061] In an exemplary embodiment, the imaging lens according to the present application further includes a filter for correcting color deviation and / or a protective glass for protecting the photosensitive element located on the imaging surface.

[0062] This application proposes an imaging lens with characteristics such as a large image area, high pixel count, miniaturization, and high image quality. The imaging lens according to the above embodiments of this application can employ multiple lens elements, such as the seven elements mentioned above. By rationally allocating the optical power, surface shape, center thickness of each lens, and on-axis spacing between lenses, incident light rays can be effectively converged, the overall optical length of the imaging lens can be reduced, and the manufacturability of the imaging lens can be improved, making the imaging lens more favorable for manufacturing. However, those skilled in the art should understand that the number of lenses constituting the imaging lens can be changed without departing from the technical solutions claimed in this application to obtain the various results and advantages described in this specification. For example, although seven lenses are described as an example in the embodiments, the imaging lens is not limited to including seven lenses. If necessary, the imaging lens may also include other numbers of lenses.

[0063] The following describes in further detail, with reference to the accompanying drawings, specific embodiments of the imaging lens applicable to the above-described embodiments.
