Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of lens technology, and in particular to an ultra-wide-angle lens that can be used for in vivo diagnosis and treatment of patients and provide high-quality imaging for a corresponding endoscope system. Background Art

[0002] Endoscope is an effective tool for clinical diagnosis. It enters the body through the natural channels or surgical incisions of the human body. It can be directly peeked by simply aiming the front lens at the corresponding part. It has a wide range of applications in the examination of organ lesions in the body and minimally invasive surgery. Most traditional endoscopic devices are reusable, that is, they are put back into use after cleaning and disinfection after the patient has completed the examination. The lenses of reusable endoscopes are mostly made of glass, which can achieve very excellent optical performance indicators and provide doctors with high-definition diagnostic images. At the same time, this small-sized lens also has the disadvantages of high processing difficulty and high cost. However, after years of development, reusable endoscopes have always been unable to get rid of the risk of cross-infection. Due to the complex structure of reusable endoscopes and the use of special materials, it is very difficult to disinfect and sterilize them; and because of their high price, most hospitals purchase limited quantities, which often cannot meet the clinical diagnosis and treatment needs of patients, so there will be safety hazards such as too short disinfection time. For example, a disposable electronic endoscope is disclosed in the Chinese utility model patent with publication number CN202120621824.6. Its core advantage is that it can effectively reduce the risk of cross infection and is low in price.

[0003] Disposable electronic endoscopes need to take into account optical performance while controlling costs. For example, when doctors perform bronchial examinations, they will encounter some narrow tissue channels, which makes it impossible to control the shooting angle by bending the end of the endoscope. This places high demands on the mechanical and optical performance of the lens itself. When the resolution is sufficient, a larger field of view can provide a larger observation field of view and reduce blind spots, making it easier for doctors to find lesions. Endoscope products generally use ultra-wide-angle lenses to increase the observation range. Existing ultra-wide-angle lenses generally use specific structures to compensate for aberrations during the design process. Increasing the number of lenses or using aspherical lenses can also improve image quality, but the lens structure is complex and the mechanical aperture is large.

[0004] However, the existing wide-angle lenses are not conducive to the miniaturization of head-end components. In addition, there are problems such as edge field aberrations that are difficult to eliminate, low relative illumination, dark corners and poor image quality around the image surface. Disposable endoscope lenses are difficult to control costs while ensuring image quality.

[0005] In summary, there is an urgent need for an ultra-wide-angle lens that can ensure imaging quality and reduce production costs. Summary of the invention

Detailed Embodiments

[0036] The following description is used to elaborate on the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement the present invention. The preferred embodiments in the following description are only examples, and other obvious variations can be conceived by those skilled in the art. The basic principles defined in the following description of the present invention can be applied to other implementation schemes, variant schemes, improvement schemes, equivalent schemes, and other technical schemes without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

[0037] To ensure imaging quality and reduce production costs, the present invention provides the following embodiments.

[0038] See Figure 1 , a super wide-angle lens provided by the present invention includes:

[0039] Along the optical axis from the object side to the image plane 80 side, it includes a first lens 10, a second lens 20, a diaphragm 60, a third lens 30, a fourth lens 40, and a filter 70 in sequence. The first lens 10, the second lens 20, the diaphragm 60, the third lens 30, and the fourth lens 40 are coaxially arranged in sequence from the object side to the image side. Among them, the first lens 10 and the fourth lens 40 have negative optical powers, the second lens 20 and the third lens 30 have positive optical powers. The first lens 10, the second lens 20, the third lens 30, and the fourth lens 40 are all made of plastic material. At least one surface of the first lens 10, the second lens 20, the third lens 30, and the fourth lens 40 is aspherical. The diaphragm 60 is arranged at the central position of the whole super wide-angle lens;

[0040] The ratio of the total optical length TTL of the super wide-angle lens to the full height 2Y of the chief ray corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the super wide-angle lens on the image plane 80 satisfies the condition: 1.5 < TTL / 2Y < 2.5.

[0041] Through the above limitations, the diaphragm 60 is centrally arranged and the lens structure is optimized. The distribution of the optical powers of the lenses in the lens structure is negative, positive, positive, negative, effectively reducing the off-axis aberration, improving the relative illumination of the edge field of view of the super wide-angle lens and the imaging quality. The use of 4 plastic aspherical lenses and the lens design of 1.5 < TTL / 2Y < 2.5 improve the optical performance while reducing the manufacturing difficulty and the unit cost.

[0042] Specifically, continue to refer to Figure 1 , this embodiment provides a super wide-angle lens.

[0043] The protective glass 50 is located on the side of the first lens 10 facing the object, and the protective glass 50 includes two flat surfaces, namely a first flat surface 51 and a second flat surface 52. Preferably, the flat surface of the protective glass 50 on the object side is coated with a hydrophobic film;

[0044] The optical focal length of the first lens 10 is negative. The first lens 10 is an aspheric lens. At least one side of the first lens 10 is an aspheric surface. In this embodiment, the first lens 10 includes a first aspheric surface 11 and a second aspheric surface 12, that is, the first lens 10 is a lens with concave front and rear surfaces.

In addition, the infrared cut-off filter 70 has other functions, for example, it can protect the endoscope lens from thermal damage, prevent infrared radiation from damaging the equipment, and at the same time, it can also reduce image noise and improve the stability of the imaging system.

[0054] The refractive index of the filter 70 is 1.48-1.68, and the Abbe number is 55-65.

[0055] In this embodiment, the absolute value of the ratio of the focal length of the first lens 10 to the focal length of the ultra wide-angle lens is 0.49-2.39; the absolute value of the ratio of the focal length of the second lens 20 to the focal length of the ultra wide-angle lens is 2.81-4.53; the absolute value of the ratio of the focal length of the third lens 30 to the focal length of the ultra wide-angle lens is 0.68-2.52; the absolute value of the ratio of the focal length of the fourth lens 40 to the focal length of the ultra wide-angle lens is 1.33-3.26.

[0057]

[0058]

[0059] The aspherical surface shape of the ultra-wide-angle lens conforms to the following calculation formula:

[0060]

[0061] Among them, Y is the projection height of the light on the surface; R is the radius of curvature of the surface centered at its intersection with the optical axis; k is the cone coefficient, A4, A6, A8, A 10 , A 12 is the high-order aspheric coefficient; X is the length of the perpendicular line between the point on the aspheric surface at a distance Y from the optical axis and the optical axis. The various aspheric coefficients in this embodiment are shown in the following table:

[0062] k <![CDATA[A4]]> <![CDATA[A6]]> <![CDATA[A8]]> <![CDATA[A 10 ]]> <![CDATA[A 12 ]]> The first aspheric surface 35.969 0.376 -0.972 1.293 -0.822 0.169 Second aspheric surface -1.245 -2.013 31.949 -202.142 707.706 -1146.015 The third aspheric surface 0.459 -1.546 12.866 -95.479 346.859 -562.872 Fourth aspheric surface 50.000 -2.419 259.949 -2.053E+04 8.124E+05 -1.200E+07 Fifth aspheric surface 3.358 -2.481 6.423 -442.715 6688.610 -4.587E+04 The sixth aspheric surface -3.677 -2.339 5.678 -39.860 -262.667 3181.353 Seventh aspheric surface -5.206 2.642 -75.743 627.916 -3787.400 9678.044 The eighth aspheric surface -22.154 1.772 -9.400 22.646 -29.528 17.258

[0063] In this embodiment, through the above parameter settings, large-aperture ultra-wide-angle imaging with an F-number of 4 and a full field of view of 140 degrees for the ultra-wide-angle lens is achieved. It should be noted that the aperture range of ultra-wide-angle lenses is usually between F2.8 and F16. For wide-angle lenses, the smaller the aperture value, the greater the amount of light entering. Therefore, lenses with smaller F-values usually have a greater amount of light entering and are suitable for shooting under relatively dim light conditions. An ultra-wide-angle lens with an F-number of 4 can obtain clearer photos under dim conditions.

[0064] In addition, the optical total length of the ultra-wide-angle lens and the full height of the image satisfy the following condition: 1.5 < TTL / 2Y < 2.5; where TTL represents the optical total length of the ultra-wide-angle lens; 2Y represents the full height of the image formed by the chief ray corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the ultra-wide-angle lens on the image plane. In this embodiment, the TTL (optical total length) of the ultra-wide-angle lens is 3.57 mm, the focal length is 0.64 mm, and the maximum diameter of the lens is 1.8 mm.

[0065] See Figure 2 , from the field curvature curve graph of the ultra-wide-angle lens, it can be seen that the maximum absolute value of the field curvature of the ultra-wide-angle lens is at most 0.04 mm. Continuing to refer to Figure 3 , it can be seen that the maximum absolute value of the distortion of the ultra-wide-angle lens is 40%, and the distortion curve of the edge field of view changes relatively smoothly.

[0066] See Figure 4 , Figure 4 is the MTF curve graph (Modulation Transfer Funtion) of the ultra-wide-angle lens. MTF is used to characterize the attenuation degree of the contrast of the sine intensity distribution function at different frequencies after passing through the optical system. The horizontal axis of this MTF curve graph represents the spatial frequency, with the unit of lp / mm; the vertical axis is the modulation degree of the optical transfer function, representing the attenuation degree of the contrast at each spatial frequency. The topmost straight line (diffraction limit) is the MTF curve under the ideal condition where only diffraction occurs and the influence of aberration is not considered when light passes through the optical system for imaging. This MTF curve graph respectively shows the MTF curves at field of view angles of 0°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 40°, 50°, 60°, and 70°. It can be seen that the MTF curves at field of view angles of 0° and 10° are basically close to the diffraction limit. At a field of view angle of 60°, the modulation degree at a spatial frequency of 200 lp / mm is approximately 0.2, and it slightly decreases at a field of view angle of 70°. Generally speaking, the ultra-wide-angle lens in this embodiment has good resolution and resolving power.

[0067] See Figure 5 , Figure 5It is the relative illumination curve of the ultra-wide-angle lens. From this figure, it can be seen that the relative illumination of the ultra-wide-angle lens is greater than 0.5 within the full field of view angle range, and the relative illumination curve changes gently, indicating that the image brightness uniformity of the image formed by the ultra-wide-angle lens is good, avoiding the problem of vignetting in the edge field of view.

[0068] In summary, the ultra-wide-angle lens provided by the present invention includes a protective glass, a first lens, a second lens, a diaphragm, a third lens, a fourth lens, and a filter along the optical axis from the object side to the image side. The first lens has a negative focal power and is a lens with both front and rear surfaces being concave; the second lens has a positive focal power and is a lens with the concave surface facing the image side; the third lens has a positive focal power and is a lens with both front and rear surfaces being convex; the fourth lens has a negative focal power and is a lens with the concave surface facing the object side. At least one surface of the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, and the fourth lens is an aspherical surface, and the first lens, the second lens, the diaphragm, the third lens, the fourth lens, and the filter are coaxially arranged in sequence from the object side to the image side. The following conditions are satisfied for the optical total length and the imaging full height of the ultra-wide-angle lens of the present invention: 1.5 < TTL / 2Y < 2.5; where TTL represents the optical total length of the ultra-wide-angle lens; 2Y represents the imaging full height of the chief ray corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the ultra-wide-angle lens on the image plane.

[0069] The advantages of the present invention are as follows:

[0070] (1) Aiming at the problem that it is difficult to design a large field of view, large aperture, and small size lens using all plastic materials or glass-plastic materials for traditional ultra-wide-angle lenses, the present invention adopts 4 plastic aspherical lenses to achieve a lens design that exceeds the current imaging performance, with an F number of 4, a full field of view angle of 140 degrees, and 1.5 < TTL / 2Y < 2.5. While reducing the manufacturing difficulty and the unit cost, the optical performance is improved.

The scope of the patent adoption of the present invention cannot be limited only by this embodiment, that is, any equivalent changes or modifications made according to the spirit disclosed by the present invention still fall within the scope of the patent of the present invention.
