Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to an underwater observation lens, which is used in the field of underwater observation lens manufacturing. Background Technology

[0002] With technological breakthroughs in high-sensitivity, high-definition imaging devices and high-brightness lighting systems adapted for underwater photography, lenses have gradually expanded into the field of underwater exploration. However, the underwater environment differs from the atmospheric environment. Due to water refraction, objects observed underwater appear larger. Furthermore, light attenuation is enhanced in water, resulting in shorter observation distances. The water temperature is lower, and the presence of water pressure places higher demands on the lens's pressure resistance when used underwater. Therefore, compared to the atmospheric environment, designing lenses for underwater observation is more challenging. While existing underwater imaging optical systems exist (such as CN202211570338.1, a front-view underwater laser imaging optical system), they are narrow-range, long-focal-length zoom lenses (working band 525–535 nm, focal length 97 mm), which cannot meet the diverse needs of underwater observation. Therefore, providing an underwater observation lens with a wide working wavelength range, short focal length, fixed focus, and advantages such as large aperture, large target surface, and wide field of view has become an urgent priority. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To overcome the shortcomings of existing underwater imaging optical systems, which are narrow-range, large-focal-length zoom lenses that cannot meet the diverse needs of underwater observation, this invention provides an underwater observation lens that uses a spherical protective cover in conjunction with twelve lenses. The spherical protective cover, the air gaps of each lens, the optical power, the center thickness, and the shape, radius of curvature, and semi-diameter of each surface are optimized to achieve a wide working wavelength range. It is a short-focal-length fixed-focus lens with advantages such as a large aperture, a large target surface, and a wide field of view.

[0051] This application's underwater observation lens employs a combination of a spherical protective cover and twelve lenses. The spherical protective cover, the air gaps between each lens, the optical power, the center thickness, and the shape, radius of curvature, and semi-diameter of each surface are optimally selected. It has a wide operating wavelength range, is a short focal length fixed-focus lens, and possesses advantages such as a large aperture, large target surface, and large field of view. This ensures stable, wide-field, clear imaging comparable to atmospheric conditions even in the low temperatures and high water pressure environments underwater. The design considers using a spherical cover (spherical protective cover) at the front end because a sphere can evenly distribute force when subjected to stress, eliminating stress concentration points. Within the spherical surface, the force is evenly distributed, resulting in greater pressure resistance per unit area. A water depth of 100 meters corresponds to 11 atmospheres of pressure. One atmosphere is 101.325 kPa, or 1.0332275 kg / cm². A 1mm thick dome glass in deep water can withstand approximately 3.66 kg / cm² of pressure. The dome glass in this design is 8-10mm thick, meaning it can theoretically withstand at least 28 atmospheres of pressure. This design can withstand water depths of at least 100 meters. Because the lens design also considers low-temperature optical compensation, all optical materials in the system meet the requirements for operating environments down to -30°C. Since this underwater observation lens is used underwater, where temperatures are generally above 0°C, low temperatures will not affect the product's normal function. The spherical protective cover is primarily used to protect the lens from water penetration. Compared to other shapes, the spherical cover has higher pressure resistance and deformation resistance. Furthermore, it ensures that the light beam emitted from the water, after passing through the cover, enters the rear optical system without deflection. It also balances the significant field curvature and astigmatism caused by the replacement of air with water in the spatial medium, thus achieving clear imaging. The underwater observation lens is installed in front of detector 15.

[0052] The underwater observation lens of this application has a focal length of 5.6mm±5%, an aperture of F0.9, a half-image height of up to 6.5mm, a total length of less than 128.061mm, a relative illumination of not less than 62%, can achieve day and night confocal focusing in the 380~905nm wavelength band, optical distortion can be reduced to <-66.84%, and it has a wide-angle observation field of 148°, which can ensure stable wide-field clear imaging comparable to atmospheric conditions in underwater low temperature and high water pressure environments.

[0064] The first surface half-diameter of the twelfth lens is 7.308±0.2mm, and the second surface half-diameter is 7.16±0.2mm.

[0065] The optimized semi-diameter of each lens surface allows the lens as a whole to better fit the mechanical components, reduce light loss, and improve image quality.

[0077] The twelfth lens is made of glass: 1.80 <n<2.10 17<Vd<27;

[0078] Where n is the refractive index and Vd is the Abbe coefficient.
