Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to an optical lens assembly and a head-mounted electronic device, and more particularly to an optical lens assembly applicable to a head-mounted electronic device. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of the semiconductor industry, the functions of various consumer electronics products have become increasingly powerful. Coupled with the emergence of various software applications and services, consumers have more choices. When the market was no longer satisfied with handheld electronic products, head-mounted displays emerged. However, current head-mounted displays are relatively heavy and have poor image quality. Summary of the Invention
[0003] Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to provide an optical lens assembly and a head-mounted electronic device, which, when the refractive lens in the optical lens assembly meets certain conditions, can not only fold the optical path to reduce the weight of the device, but also ensure the imaging quality.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides an optical lens assembly, comprising, from the eye side to the image source side, the following in sequence: a first lens having positive refractive power, wherein the eye-side surface of the first lens is convex near the optical axis; an optical element comprising, from the eye side to the image source side, an absorptive polarizing element, a reflective polarizing element, and a first phase retardation element; a second lens having positive refractive power, wherein the image source-side surface of the second lens is convex near the optical axis, and at least one of the eye-side surface and the image source-side surface of the second lens is aspherical; a partially reflective and partially transmissive element; a second phase retardation element; and an image source surface.
[0005] The overall focal length of the optical lens group is f, the maximum image source height of the optical lens group is IMH, the focal length of the first lens is f1, and the focal length of the second lens is f2, satisfying the following conditions: 0.40 < IMH / f < 1.26; and 0.21 < f2 / f1 < 2.35. This helps to achieve a more appropriate distribution of refractive power in the optical lens group, thereby reducing aberrations.
[0006] Alternatively, the optical lens group may contain a total of two lenses with refractive power.
[0007] The thickness of the first lens along the optical axis is CT1, and the thickness of the second lens along the optical axis is CT2, satisfying the condition: 0.62 < CT2 / CT1 < 6.97. This helps to ensure that the lens thickness meets the processing requirements of lens manufacturing while maintaining image quality.
[0008] The thickness of the first lens on the optical axis is CT1, and the displacement parallel to the optical axis from the intersection of the eye-side surface of the first lens with the optical axis to the position of the maximum effective radius of the eye-side surface of the first lens is TDP1, satisfying the following condition: 0.98 < CT1 / TDP1 < 5.79. This helps to achieve optimal performance and optimal assembly stability of the first lens.
[0009] The overall focal length of the optical lens group is f, and the focal length of the first lens is f1, satisfying the condition: 0.04 < f / f1 < 0.28. This helps to enhance the wide-angle characteristics of the optical lens group, provide a larger viewing angle, and maintain the illumination of the optical lens group.
[0010] The first lens has a radius of curvature of R1 on its eye-side surface and a focal length of f1, satisfying the condition: 0.33 < R1 / f1 < 0.76. This helps to effectively improve the distortion and reduce the aberrations of the optical lens group, and further reduce the lens size.
[0011] The overall focal length of the optical lens group is f, and the focal length of the second lens is f2, satisfying the condition: 0.07 < f / f2 < 0.30. This helps to enhance the wide-angle characteristics of the optical lens group, provide a larger viewing angle, and maintain the illumination of the optical lens group.
[0012] The second lens has a radius of curvature of R4 on its image source side surface and a focal length of f2, satisfying the condition: -1.20 < R4 / f2 < -0.22. This helps to effectively reduce image field curvature, improve the imaging quality of the optical lens group, and ensure lens shape retention.
[0013] The distance from the eye-side surface of the first lens to the image source surface on the optical axis is TL, and the radius of curvature of the eye-side surface of the first lens is R1, satisfying the following condition: 2.05 < R1 / TL < 12.83. This helps to maintain suitable lens shape properties.
[0014] The first lens has an Abbe number of vd1, the second lens has an Abbe number of vd2, and the first lens has a refractive index of nd1, satisfying the condition: 0.93 < (vd1*nd1) / vd2 < 2.16. This allows for a more suitable material combination between the first and second lenses, resulting in better image quality.
[0015] The first lens has a radius of curvature of R1 on its eye-side surface, and the second lens has a radius of curvature of R4 on its image-source-side surface, satisfying the condition: -2.74 < R1 / R4 < -0.54. This mutual constraint between the two radii of curvature helps prevent excessively small radii of curvature and reduces sensitivity to assembly tolerances.
[0016] The second lens has an eye-side surface radius of curvature of R3 and an image-source-side surface radius of curvature of R4, satisfying the condition: -0.83 < R4 / R3 < 0.49. This mutual constraint between the two radii of curvature helps prevent excessively small radii of curvature and reduces sensitivity to assembly tolerances.
[0017] The distance from the eye-side surface of the second lens to the image source surface on the optical axis is T2M, and the thickness of the second lens on the optical axis is CT2, satisfying the following condition: 0.68 < T2M / CT2 < 2.37. This helps to achieve a more appropriate balance between the lens shaping properties and refractive power of the second lens.
[0018] The distance from the eye-side surface of the first lens to the image source surface on the optical axis is TL, and the maximum image source height of the optical lens group is IMH, satisfying the following condition: 0.54 < TL / IMH < 1.80. This helps to achieve a proper balance between the miniaturization of the optical lens group and the size of the light-emitting area of the image source surface.
[0019] The second lens has a radius of curvature of R4 on its image source side surface and a refractive index of nd2, satisfying the condition: -116.45mm < R4 / nd2 < -19.09mm. This helps to achieve an optimal balance between lens shapeability and performance when selecting second lenses made of different materials.
[0020] Alternatively, the image source side surface of the second lens may be convex near the optical axis.
[0021] Alternatively, the reflective portion of the transmissive element has an average light reflectance of at least 30% in the visible light range, preferably 50%.
[0022] Alternatively, the optical element may further include an anti-reflective coating that is closer to the image source side than the phase retardation element.
[0023] Alternatively, the overall focal length of the optical lens group is f, and the following condition must be met: 12.07mm < f < 38.00mm.
[0024] Alternatively, the maximum field of view of the optical lens group is FOV, and the following conditions must be met: 76.5 degrees < FOV < 132.0 degrees.
[0025] Optionally, the distance from the eye side surface of the first lens to the image source surface on the optical axis is TL, and satisfies the following condition: 10.39mm < TL < 29.54mm.
[0026] Alternatively, the maximum image source height of the optical lens group is IMH, and the following conditions must be met: 8.08mm < IMH < 29.63mm.
[0027] Furthermore, the present invention also provides a head-mounted electronic device, comprising: a housing; an optical lens group disposed within the housing; an image source disposed within the housing and disposed on the image source surface of the optical lens group; and a controller disposed within the housing and electrically connected to the image source.

[0120] Furthermore, the optical lens group of the first embodiment, through a combination of absorptive polarizing elements, reflective polarizing elements, phase retardation elements, and lenses, utilizes the transmission and reflection of light to fold the optical path without affecting image quality, thereby compressing the length of the lens group required for imaging. Please refer to... Figure 10 As shown, linearly polarized incident light emitted from image source 170 travels along optical path L1 to the user's eye. Specifically, when this linearly polarized incident light passes through the second phase retardation element 150, it changes from a linearly polarized state to a circularly polarized state. A portion of the circularly polarized incident light is transmitted as light through the partially reflective transmission element 140 and enters the second lens 130, where it is refracted by the second lens 130 to the first phase retardation element 123. This transmitted light changes from a circularly polarized state to a linearly polarized state the first time it passes through the first phase retardation element 123, and has a polarization direction parallel to the reflection axis of the reflective polarizing element 122. Then, this linearly polarized transmitted light is reflected by the reflective polarizing element 122, and passes through the first phase retardation element 123 a second time to return to a linearly polarized state. The polarization state is converted back to circular polarization. Then, after passing through the second lens 130, part of the transmitted light, which is now circularly polarized again, is reflected back to the second lens 130 by the partial reflection and partial transmission element 140, and travels to the first phase retardation element 123 after passing through the second lens 130. When the reflected light passes through the first phase retardation element 123, it is converted from circular polarization to linear polarization and has a polarization direction perpendicular to the reflection axis of the reflective polarizing element 122. Finally, the linearly polarized reflected light is refracted to the user's eye by the first lens 110 after passing through the reflective polarizing element 122 and the absorptive polarizing element 121.

[0228] Ninth Embodiment
[0229] Please refer to Figure 9 The schematic diagram shown is of an optical lens assembly according to a ninth embodiment of the present invention. This optical lens assembly, along the optical axis 980 from the eye side to the image source side, sequentially includes an aperture 900, a first lens 910, an optical element 920, a second lens 930, a partially reflective and partially transmissive element 940, a second phase retardation element 950, and an image source surface 960. The total number of refractive lenses in the optical lens assembly is two, but not limited to this. The optical lens assembly can be used with an image source 970. The optical element 920, from the eye side to the image source side, sequentially includes an absorptive polarizing element 921, a reflective polarizing element 922, and a first phase retardation element 923.
[0230] The configuration of the aperture 900, the first lens 910, the absorptive polarizing element 921, the reflective polarizing element 922, the first phase retardation element 923, the second lens 930, the partially reflective and partially transmissive element 940, the second phase retardation element 950, the image source surface 960, and the image source 970 can be the same as the configuration of the aperture, the first lens, the absorptive polarizing element, the reflective polarizing element, the first phase retardation element, the second lens, the partially reflective and partially transmissive element, the second phase retardation element, the image source surface, and the image source in any of the first to eighth embodiments, and will not be described again here.
[0231] The optical element 920 further includes an anti-reflective film 924, which is closer to the image source side than the first phase delay element 923 and can be stacked (e.g., but not limited to, a film) on the first phase delay element 923, with both of its surfaces being planar.
[0232] The optical lens assembly provided by this invention allows the lenses to be made of either plastic or glass. Using plastic effectively reduces production costs, while using glass increases the freedom of refractive power configuration. Furthermore, the aspherical lens surfaces in the optical lens assembly can be fabricated into shapes other than spherical to obtain more control variables and reduce aberrations, thereby reducing the number of lenses used and effectively lowering the overall length of the optical lens assembly.
[0233] In the optical lens assembly provided by the present invention, taking a lens with refractive power as an example, if the lens surface is convex and the position of the convex surface is not defined, it means that the lens surface is convex near the optical axis; if the lens surface is concave and the position of the concave surface is not defined, it means that the lens surface is concave near the optical axis.
[0234] Furthermore, the optical lens assembly provided by this invention can be applied to head-mounted electronic devices. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 11 The diagram shown is a schematic of a head-mounted electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention. This head-mounted electronic device 10 is, for example, but not limited to, a head-mounted display that uses virtual reality (VR) technology, and includes a housing 1001 and an optical engine module 1002, an image source 1003, and a controller 1004 disposed within the housing 1001.
[0235] The optical engine module 1002 corresponds to the user's left and right eyes respectively. The optical engine module 1002 includes an optical lens group, and this optical lens group can be any of the optical lens groups in the first embodiment to the ninth embodiment.
[0236] The image source 1003 can be any of the first to ninth embodiments. The image source 1003 can correspond to the left eye and the right eye respectively, and the type of the image source 1003 can be a liquid crystal display, an LED display, or an OLED display, but is not limited thereto.
[0237] The controller 1004 is electrically connected to the image source 1003 to control the image source 1003 to display images, thereby enabling the head-mounted electronic device 10 to project stereoscopic images onto the user's eyes and form virtual images.
[0238] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
