Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] With the continuous upgrading and iteration of electronic products, and to meet the diverse needs of customers, the performance requirements of various products are gradually increasing, with camera capabilities becoming a key focus. Simultaneously, as electronic products become increasingly smaller, miniaturized lenses are gaining market favor. This environment necessitates that camera performance maintain image quality while achieving a slim and lightweight design.

[0003] In the field of optical imaging lenses, the presence of stray light and deviations in assembly stability significantly affect the image quality. For example, if the optical power settings of the lenses in an optical imaging lens are not properly configured, the deflection paths of light within the lens may become chaotic, leading to stray light. Similarly, if the size of the lens closest to the image side is not properly configured, a satisfactory image plane size may not be achieved. Furthermore, improper design of the position and size of the spacers in an optical imaging lens can also result in chaotic light deflection paths, further contributing to stray light. Moreover, improper design of the position and size of the spacers can also lead to poor stability between the lenses, resulting in poor assembly stability of the optical imaging lens.

[0004] Therefore, how to rationally arrange the lenses and spacers in an optical imaging lens, and how to rationally set the optical parameters of the optical imaging lens, in order to control the light path in the optical imaging lens, improve the manufacturability of each lens, improve the assembly stability of the optical imaging lens, and reduce the low production yield of the optical imaging lens, is one of the urgent problems to be solved in the field of optical imaging.

[0037] Unless otherwise specified, 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 application pertains. It should also be understood that terms (e.g., those defined in common dictionaries) shall be interpreted as having the meaning consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art and shall not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense, unless expressly so specified herein.

[0038] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other. The following embodiments only illustrate several implementation methods of this application, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application.

For example, the lens groups (i.e., the first lens to the seventh lens), lens barrel structure, and spacer elements in the various embodiments of this application can be arbitrarily combined, and it is not limited to the lens group in one embodiment being combined only with the lens barrel structure, spacer elements, etc. of that embodiment.

[0039] The features, principles and other aspects of this application are described in detail below.

[0040] Figure 1A schematic diagram illustrating the structural arrangement and some parameters of an optical imaging lens according to this application is shown. Those skilled in the art will understand that some parameters frequently used in the art, such as the center thickness CT1 of the first lens on the optical axis, are not shown. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, Figure 1 The illustration only shows partial parameters of the lens barrel and spacer elements of an optical imaging system according to this application, to facilitate a better understanding of the invention. Figure 1 As shown, EP12 represents the spacing between the image-side surface of the first spacer element and the object-side surface of the second spacer element along the optical axis; CP1 represents the maximum thickness of the first spacer element along the optical axis; CP2 represents the maximum thickness of the second spacer element along the optical axis; d2s represents the inner diameter of the object-side surface of the second spacer element; d4m represents the inner diameter of the image-side surface of the fourth spacer element; D6m represents the outer diameter of the image-side surface of the sixth spacer element; d6m represents the inner diameter of the image-side surface of the sixth spacer element, and so on.

[0041] refer to Figure 1 As shown, a first aspect of this application provides an optical imaging lens that may include a lens barrel and a lens group mounted within the lens barrel. The lens group 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. 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. The lens barrel can accommodate the first to seventh lenses. In an exemplary embodiment, the outer surface of the lens barrel away from the optical axis is parallel to the optical axis.

[0042] According to an exemplary embodiment of this application, each of the first to seventh lenses may have an optical region for optical imaging and a non-optical region extending outward from the outer periphery of the optical region. Generally speaking, the optical region refers to the area of ​​the lens used for optical imaging, while the non-optical region is the structural area of ​​the lens. During the assembly of the optical imaging lens, spacer elements can be set at the non-optical regions of each lens using processes such as adhesive bonding, and each lens can be connected to the lens barrel, i.e., each lens abuts against the inner wall of the lens barrel. During the imaging process of the optical imaging lens, the optical regions of each lens can transmit light from the object to form an optical path, forming the final optical image; while the non-optical regions of each assembled lens are housed in the lens barrel, which cannot transmit light, thus the non-optical regions do not directly participate in the imaging process of the optical imaging lens. It should be noted that, for ease of description, this application describes each lens as divided into two parts: an optical region and a non-optical region. However, it should be understood that the optical region and the non-optical region of the lens can be formed as a whole during the manufacturing process, rather than as two separate parts.

[0043] An optical imaging lens according to an exemplary embodiment of this application further includes at least one spacer element, such as a second spacer element located between a second lens and a third lens, which may abut against a non-optical region on the image-side of the second lens. Exemplarily, the second spacer element may contact both the non-optical region on the image-side of the second lens and the non-optical region on the object-side of the third lens.

[0044] According to an exemplary embodiment of this application, the spacer element may further include a first spacer element located between the first lens and the second lens, a third spacer element located between the third lens and the fourth lens, etc. Exemplarily, the spacer element may include a spacer plate and may also include a spacer ring. By reasonably setting the number, thickness, inner diameter, and outer diameter of the spacer element, it is beneficial to block stray light, improve the imaging quality of the optical imaging lens, and enhance the assembly stability of the optical imaging lens.

[0045] It should be understood that the surface of each spacer element closest to the subject is called the object-side surface of that spacer element, and the surface of each spacer element closest to the imaging plane is called the image-side surface of that spacer element. The surface of the lens barrel closest to the subject is called the object-side end or front end of the lens barrel, and the surface of the lens barrel closest to the imaging plane is called the image-side end or rear end of the lens barrel.

[0046] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging lens according to this application satisfies: 2.0 < TD / (CT2+CT3+CT7) < 3.0, where TD is the distance along the optical axis from the object-side surface of the first lens to the image-side surface of the seventh lens, CT2 is the center thickness of the second lens along the optical axis, CT3 is the center thickness of the third lens along the optical axis, and CT7 is the center thickness of the seventh lens along the optical axis. By limiting TD / (CT2+CT3+CT7) within a reasonable range, it is beneficial to reasonably control the center thicknesses of the second, third, and seventh lenses, making the lens structure more compact and lightweight, achieving lens miniaturization, and avoiding excessive light deflection.

[0047] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging lens according to this application satisfies: -0.5 < f3 / (R4 / f2) d2s) < 1.0, where f2 is the effective focal length of the second lens, f3 is the effective focal length of the third lens, R4 is the radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the second lens, and d2s is the inner diameter of the object-side surface of the second spacer element. This is achieved by f3 / (R4 / f2) By controlling d2s within a reasonable range, the aperture design of the second and third lenses can be kept from being too large, thus meeting the requirements of miniaturization design. At the same time, in order to meet the optical performance requirements, the ability of the first few lenses to converge light can be improved by designing reasonable focal length and radius of curvature parameters, so that the incident light can meet the performance requirements. In addition, by controlling the inner diameter of the second spacer element, invalid light at the edge can be filtered out, thereby improving the image quality.

[0048] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging lens according to this application satisfies: -1.5 < (D1m) D2s) / (R4 CT2) < -0.5, where D1m is the outer diameter of the image-side surface of the first spacer element, D2s is the outer diameter of the object-side surface of the second spacer element, CT2 is the center thickness of the second lens on the optical axis, and R4 is the radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the second lens. By reasonably controlling the outer diameters of the first and second spacer elements, the lens head diameter is kept within a reasonable design range. Simultaneously, by coordinating the center thickness and radius of curvature parameters of the second lens, the aspect ratio and thickness ratio of the lens are kept within a favorable processing range, thereby allowing for reasonable control of the deflection angle of the principal ray.

[0049] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging lens according to this application satisfies: -0.6 < EP01 (CT1-T12) / (R1 CP1) < 0.1, where EP01 is the gap between the front end face of the lens barrel and the first spacer element, CT1 is the center thickness of the first lens on the optical axis, T12 is the air gap between the first and second lenses on the optical axis, R1 is the radius of curvature of the side surface of the first lens, and CP1 is the maximum thickness of the first spacer element. By reasonably controlling the above air gap and center thickness parameters, the thickness ratio of the first lens can be reasonably controlled, which is beneficial to molding; at the same time, controlling the radius of curvature of the side surface of the first lens can ensure that the incident light angle meets the design requirements, and controlling the thickness of the first spacer element helps to reduce the sensitivity of the first air gap to the overall field curvature and improve product yield.

[0050] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging lens according to this application satisfies: 0.5 < f3 (T23+CP2) / (d2m R5) < 1.5, where f3 is the effective focal length of the third lens, T23 is the air gap between the second and third lenses on the optical axis, CP2 is the maximum thickness of the second spacer element, d2m is the inner diameter of the image side of the second spacer element, and R5 is the radius of curvature of the object side of the third lens. By controlling the above parameters, light can be reasonably diverged at the third lens, improving chip matching accuracy. At the same time, controlling the inner diameter of the spacer element allows edge-dependent light to be absorbed, preventing stray light.

[0051] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging lens according to this application satisfies: 1.0 < D²s (CT2 / EP12) / f2 < 2.0, where D2s is the outer diameter of the side of the second spacer element, EP12 is the spacing between the first and second spacers, CT2 is the center thickness of the second lens on the optical axis, and f2 is the effective focal length of the second lens. By reasonably controlling the above outer diameters, a relatively gradual increase in the lens outer diameter from the head to the waist can be obtained. At the same time, in conjunction with the control of other parameters, the thickness of the second lens can be made more uniform. A reasonable effective focal length helps to reduce aberrations in the edge field of view, shorten the overall length of the optical system, and meet the requirements of thinness and lightness.

[0052] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging lens according to this application satisfies: 0.5 < EP23 (T34 / CP3) / R7 < 2.5, where EP23 is the spacing between the second and third spacers, T34 is the air gap between the third and fourth lenses on the optical axis, CP3 is the maximum thickness of the third spacer, and R7 is the radius of curvature of the object side of the fourth lens. By controlling these parameters, the system sensitivity of the combination of the third and fourth lenses can be reduced, which is beneficial to achieving the characteristics of a large aperture and high resolution in the imaging system, while improving its ability to correct astigmatism and field curvature.

[0053] In an exemplary embodiment, the lens with the highest refractive index among the lenses with optical power in the lens group is the third lens. The optical imaging lens according to this application satisfies: -1.0 < (D3s + D2m) / f3 < 1.0, where D3s is the outer diameter of the object-side surface of the third spacer element, D2m is the outer diameter of the image-side surface of the second spacer element, N3 is the refractive index of the third lens, f3 is the effective focal length of the third lens, and R6 is the radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the third lens. By controlling parameters such as the focal length, radius of curvature, and refractive index of the third lens, the converging light rays entering the third lens through the aperture stop begin to diverge reasonably according to design requirements, which is beneficial for achieving a large image plane characteristic, reducing on-axis chromatic aberration, and ensuring better image quality.

[0054] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging lens may further include a fourth spacer element located between the fourth lens and the fifth lens, the fourth spacer element being in direct contact with the image side of the fourth lens.

[0055] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging lens according to this application satisfies: -18.5 < d4m D4m / (R9 CP4) < 6.5, where d4m is the inner diameter of the image-side surface of the fourth spacer element, D4m is the outer diameter of the image-side surface of the fourth spacer element, R9 is the radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the fifth lens, and CP4 is the maximum thickness of the fourth spacer element. By reasonably controlling the inner and outer diameter parameters of the fourth spacer element, a reasonable annular area parameter of the spacer element can be obtained, which is beneficial to reducing abnormal stray light spots. At the same time, in combination with the radius of curvature of the fifth lens and the maximum thickness of the fourth spacer element, the size of the fourth air gap can be effectively controlled, so that it can better control the field curvature and distortion range, and improve the image quality.

[0056] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging lens may further include a fifth spacer element located between the fifth lens and the sixth lens, the fifth spacer element being in direct contact with the image side of the fifth lens.

[0057] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging lens according to this application satisfies: -0.5 < CT5 d5m / (f5 CP5) < 0.5, where CT5 is the center thickness of the fifth lens on the optical axis, d5m is the inner diameter of the image-side surface of the fifth spacer element, f5 is the effective focal length of the fifth lens, R10 is the radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the fifth lens, and CP5 is the maximum thickness of the fifth spacer element. By controlling the above parameters related to the fifth lens, the manufacturability of the fifth lens is improved, and its contribution range of optical power and its contribution rate of negative spherical aberration can be reasonably controlled, thereby improving image quality.

[0058] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging lens may further include a sixth spacer element located between the sixth lens and the seventh lens, the sixth spacer element being in direct contact with the image side of the sixth lens.

[0059] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging lens according to this application satisfies: 5.5 < D6s / R11 + CP6 / CT6 < 7.0, where D6s is the outer diameter of the object side of the sixth spacer element, R11 is the radius of curvature of the object side of the sixth lens, CP6 is the maximum thickness of the sixth spacer element, and CT6 is the center thickness of the sixth lens on the optical axis. By reasonably controlling the outer diameter of the sixth spacer element, the step difference between the fifth and sixth lenses can be effectively controlled. Simultaneously, by coordinating the radius of curvature, center thickness, and edge thickness data of the sixth lens, the astigmatism of the optical imaging lens and the aperture size of the control system can be effectively balanced, thereby improving the overall brightness of the image.

[0060] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging lens according to this application satisfies: 1.0 < f6 (EP56+T67) / (CT6 R12) < 4.5, where f6 is the effective focal length of the sixth lens, EP56 is the spacing between the fifth and sixth spacers, T67 is the air gap between the sixth and seventh lenses on the optical axis, CT6 is the center thickness of the sixth lens on the optical axis, and R12 is the radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the sixth lens.

By reasonably controlling the inner and outer diameters of the sixth spacer element, stray light anomalies can be effectively controlled, while its effective focal length and radius of curvature can be controlled, so that the outgoing light rays can better match the designed image plane parameters, control the image height of the system, and thus facilitate the miniaturization of the optical imaging lens.

[0062] A second aspect of this application provides an optical imaging lens that may include a lens barrel and a lens group mounted within the lens barrel. The lens group may include seven lenses of 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. 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. The lens barrel can accommodate the first to seventh lenses. In an exemplary embodiment, the outer surface of the lens barrel away from the optical axis is parallel to the optical axis.

[0063] The optical imaging lens according to embodiments of this application further includes at least one spacer element, such as a first spacer element located between a first lens and a second lens. Exemplarily, the first spacer element may contact a non-optical region on the image-side of the first lens and simultaneously contact a non-optical region on the object-side of the second lens.

[0064] According to an exemplary embodiment of this application, the spacer element may further include a second spacer element located between the second lens and the third lens, which may abut against the non-optical region on the image-side surface of the second lens. Exemplarily, the spacer element may include a spacer plate and may also include a spacer ring. By reasonably setting the number, thickness, inner diameter, and outer diameter of the spacer element, it is beneficial to block stray light, improve the imaging quality of the optical imaging lens, and enhance the assembly stability of the optical imaging lens.

[0065] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging lens according to this application satisfies: -1.5 < (D1m) D2s) / (R4 CT2) < -0.5, where D1m is the outer diameter of the image-side surface of the first spacer element, D2s is the outer diameter of the object-side surface of the second spacer element, CT2 is the center thickness of the second lens on the optical axis, and R4 is the radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the second lens. By reasonably controlling the outer diameters of the first and second spacer elements, the lens head diameter is kept within a reasonable design range. Simultaneously, by coordinating the center thickness and radius of curvature parameters of the second lens, the aspect ratio and thickness ratio of the lens are kept within a favorable processing range, thereby allowing for reasonable control of the deflection angle of the principal ray.

[0066] A third aspect of this application provides an optical imaging lens that may include a lens barrel and a lens group mounted within the lens barrel. The lens group may include seven lenses of 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. 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. The lens barrel can accommodate the first to seventh lenses. In an exemplary embodiment, the outer surface of the lens barrel away from the optical axis is parallel to the optical axis.

[0067] An optical imaging lens according to an exemplary embodiment of this application further includes at least one spacer element, such as a second spacer element located between a second lens and a third lens, which may abut against a non-optical region on the image-side of the second lens. Exemplarily, the second spacer element may contact both the non-optical region on the image-side of the second lens and the non-optical region on the object-side of the third lens.

[0068] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging lens according to this application satisfies: 0.5 < f3 (T23+CP2) / (d2m R5) < 1.5, where f3 is the effective focal length of the third lens, T23 is the air gap between the second and third lenses on the optical axis, CP2 is the maximum thickness of the second spacer element, d2m is the inner diameter of the image side of the second spacer element, and R5 is the radius of curvature of the object side of the third lens. By controlling the above parameters, light can be reasonably diverged at the third lens, improving chip matching accuracy. At the same time, controlling the inner diameter of the spacer element allows edge-dependent light to be absorbed, preventing stray light.

[0069] A fourth aspect of this application provides an optical imaging lens that may include a lens barrel and a lens group mounted within the lens barrel. The lens group may include seven lenses of optical power: a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, a fifth lens, a sixth lens, and a seventh lens. These seven lenses are arranged sequentially along the optical axis from the object side to the image side. Any two adjacent lenses from the first to the seventh lens may have a gap between them. The lens barrel can accommodate the first to the seventh lenses. In an exemplary embodiment, the outer surface of the lens barrel away from the optical axis is parallel to the optical axis.

[0070] An optical imaging lens according to an exemplary embodiment of this application further includes at least one spacer element, such as a fourth spacer element located between a fourth lens and a fifth lens, which may abut against a non-optical region on the image-side of the fourth lens. Exemplarily, the fourth spacer element may contact both the non-optical region on the image-side of the fourth lens and the non-optical region on the object-side of the fifth lens.

[0071] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging lens according to this application satisfies: -18.5 < d4m D4m / (R9 CP4) < 6.5, where d4m is the inner diameter of the image-side surface of the fourth spacer element, D4m is the outer diameter of the image-side surface of the fourth spacer element, R9 is the radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the fifth lens, and CP4 is the maximum thickness of the fourth spacer element. By reasonably controlling the inner and outer diameter parameters of the fourth spacer element, a reasonable annular area parameter of the spacer element can be obtained, which is beneficial to reducing abnormal stray light spots. At the same time, in combination with the radius of curvature of the fifth lens and the maximum thickness of the fourth spacer element, the size of the fourth air gap can be effectively controlled, so that it can better control the field curvature and distortion range, and improve the image quality.

[0072] In the embodiments of this application, at least one of the mirror surfaces of each lens is an aspherical mirror surface; that is, at least one mirror surface from the object-side surface of the first lens to the image-side surface of the seventh lens is an aspherical mirror surface. The characteristic of an aspherical lens is that its curvature changes continuously from the center to the periphery of the lens. Unlike a spherical lens, which has a constant curvature from the center to the periphery, an aspherical lens has better radius of curvature characteristics, offering advantages in improving distortion aberrations and astigmatism. By using an aspherical lens, aberrations occurring during imaging can be eliminated as much as possible, thereby improving image quality.

[0073] Optionally, at least one of the object-side surface and image-side surface of each of the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh lenses is an aspherical mirror. Optionally, both the object-side surface and image-side surface of each of the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh lenses are aspherical mirrors.

[0074] However, those skilled in the art will understand that the number of lenses constituting the optical imaging lens can be varied to obtain the various results and advantages described herein without departing from the technical solutions claimed in this application. For example, although seven lenses are described as an example in the embodiment, the optical imaging lens is not limited to including seven lenses. If desired, the optical imaging lens may also include other numbers of lenses. At least one spacer element may be included between any two adjacent lenses.

[0075] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging lens according to this application further includes an aperture stop. The aperture stop can constrain the light path and control the light intensity. Optionally, the optical imaging lens may also include a filter for correcting color deviation and / or a protective glass for protecting the photosensitive element located on the imaging surface. This application proposes an optical imaging lens with characteristics such as a large image plane, good assembly stability, high light-gathering ability, and high imaging quality. The optical imaging lens according to the above embodiments of this application can employ multiple lenses, such as the seven lenses mentioned above. By rationally allocating the optical power, surface shape, material, center thickness of each lens, and on-axis spacing between each lens, incident light 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 optical imaging lens more conducive to production and processing. This application, through the rational combination of lenses, spacers, and lens barrels, facilitates the uniform distribution of lenses, enhances the light-gathering ability, and improves imaging quality.

[0076] like Figure 2 As shown, stray light enters the optical imaging lens from the object side and exits from the image side. Through a reasonable design of focal length and radius of curvature parameters, the light-gathering ability of the first few lenses in the lens group can be improved, ensuring that the incident light meets performance requirements. Simultaneously, by designing the number and inner diameter of the second spacer element (which directly contacts the image side of the second lens) between the second and third lenses, and the third spacer element (which directly contacts the image side of the third lens) between the third and fourth lenses, effective blocking of stray light at the lens edges can be achieved, filtering out invalid edge light and improving image quality.
