[0048] refer to Figures 2 to 4 , Figures 6 to 8 as well as Figures 10 to 12 The first aspect of this application provides an optical imaging system that may include a six-lens group, comprising a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, a fifth lens, and a sixth lens arranged sequentially along the optical axis from the object side to the image side. An air gap may exist between any two adjacent lenses in the first to sixth lenses.

[0049] In an exemplary embodiment, the first lens may have negative optical power, with its object side being convex or concave and its image side being concave.

[0050] In an exemplary embodiment, the second lens may have positive optical power, with its object side being concave and its image side being convex.

[0051] In an exemplary embodiment, the third lens may have positive optical power, with its object side being convex and its image side being convex.

[0052] In an exemplary embodiment, the fourth lens may have negative optical power, with its object side being convex or concave and its image side being concave.

[0053] In an exemplary embodiment, the fifth lens may have positive optical power, with its object side being convex and its image side being convex.

[0054] In an exemplary embodiment, the sixth lens may have a negative optical power, with its object side surface being concave and its image side surface being concave.

[0055] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging system may further include a set of spacer elements, which may include one or more of a first spacer element, a second spacer element, a third spacer element, a fourth spacer element, a fifth spacer element, and a second auxiliary spacer element. The first spacer element may be placed on the image side surface of the first lens and at least partially contact the image side surface of the first lens. The second spacer element may be placed on the image side surface of the second lens and at least partially contact the image side surface of the second lens. The third spacer element may be placed on the image side surface of the third lens and at least partially contact the image side surface of the third lens. The fourth spacer element may be placed on the image side surface of the fourth lens and at least partially contact the image side surface of the fourth lens. The fifth spacer element may be placed on the image side surface of the fifth lens and at least partially contact the image side surface of the fifth lens. The second auxiliary spacer element may be placed on the image side surface of the second spacer element and at least partially contact the image side surface of the second spacer element. Reasonable use of the spacer elements can effectively avoid the risk of stray light, reduce the interference to the image quality, and thus improve the imaging quality of the optical imaging system.

[0056] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging system may further include a lens barrel, and the six-piece lens group and the set of spacer elements are placed inside the lens barrel. The lens barrel may include an object-side end face, an image-side end face, an outer ring surface, and an inner ring surface. Among them, the end face of the lens barrel closest to the object side is the object-side end face of the lens barrel, and the end face of the lens barrel closest to the image side is the image-side end face of the lens barrel; in the direction perpendicular to the optical axis, the outermost surface of the lens barrel away from the optical axis is the outer ring surface, and the innermost surface of the lens barrel closest to the optical axis is the inner ring surface.

[0057] In an exemplary embodiment, the air gap T56 between the fifth lens and the sixth lens on the optical axis and the central thickness CT6 of the sixth lens on the optical axis may satisfy: 1 < T56 / CT6 < 2; the central thickness CT5 of the fifth lens on the optical axis, the maximum thickness CP4 of the fourth spacer element, and the gap EP45 between the fourth spacer element and the fifth spacer element along the optical axis may satisfy: 1.3 < (CT5 - CP4) / EP45 < 2.7. By making the optical imaging system satisfy "1 < T56 / CT6 < 2" and "1.3 < (CT5 - CP4) / EP45 < 2.7", the gap between the fourth spacer element and the fifth spacer element along the optical axis can be constrained within a certain range, which is beneficial to controlling the edge thickness of the fifth lens. At the same time, by restricting the air gap between the fifth lens and the sixth lens and the central thicknesses of the fifth lens and the sixth lens, it is beneficial to controlling the overall thickness uniformity and surface profile of the fifth lens and the sixth lens, and thus is beneficial to the molding of the fifth lens and the sixth lens, improving the assembly stability and imaging quality of the optical imaging system.

[0058] Figure 14AThe modulation transfer function curve limited by the diffraction limit when the optical imaging system satisfies T56 / CT6 = 1.26 and (CT5 - CP4) / EP45 = 1.79; Figure 14B The modulation transfer function curve limited by the diffraction limit when the optical imaging system satisfies T56 / CT6 = 1.33 and (CT5 - CP4) / EP45 = 2.04; Figure 14C The modulation transfer function curve limited by the diffraction limit when the optical imaging system satisfies T56 / CT6 = 0.01 and (CT5 - CP4) / EP45 = 0.001; Figure 14D The modulation transfer function curve limited by the diffraction limit when the optical imaging system satisfies T56 / CT6 = 12.2 and (CT5 - CP4) / EP45 = 14.

[0059] From Figure 14A and Figure 14B it can be seen that when the optical imaging system satisfies 1 < T56 / CT6 < 2 and 1.3 < (CT5 - CP4) / EP45 < 2.7, the peak value of the MTF of the optical imaging system is at a defocus position within the range of -0.005 mm to 0.005 mm. From Figure 14C and Figure 14D it can be seen that when the optical imaging system does not satisfy 1 < T56 / CT6 < 2 and 1.3 < (CT5 - CP4) / EP45 < 2.7, the peak value of the MTF of the optical imaging system is at a defocus position within the range of -0.01 mm to 0.01 mm. It can be seen that by controlling the optical imaging system to satisfy "1 < T56 / CT6 < 2 and 1.3 < (CT5 - CP4) / EP45 < 2.7", it helps to improve the imaging quality of the optical imaging system.

[0060] In an exemplary embodiment, the central thickness of the fifth lens on the optical axis is greater than the central thickness of any other lens in the six-piece lens group except the fifth lens on the optical axis, and the central thickness CT5 of the fifth lens on the optical axis and the intervals EP45 of the fourth spacer element and the fifth spacer element along the optical axis can satisfy: 1.4 < CT5 / EP45 < 2.6. By controlling the above conditional formula, the central thickness and edge thickness of the fifth lens can be constrained within a reasonable range, improving the overall structural symmetry of the fifth lens, being beneficial to lens mold processing and lens injection molding, and reducing the AS risk.

[0061] In an exemplary embodiment, the spacing EP45 between the fourth spacer element and the fifth spacer element along the optical axis, the maximum thickness CP4 of the fourth spacer element, and the maximum thickness CP5 of the fifth spacer element may satisfy: 7 < EP45 / (CP4 + CP5) < 14. By controlling the above conditional expression, the edge thickness of the fifth lens and the thicknesses of the fourth and fifth spacer elements can be constrained within a reasonable range, avoiding problems such as easy generation of stray light caused by too large thickness of the spacer element or difficulty in processing and forming due to too small thickness.

[0062] In an exemplary embodiment, the radius of curvature R11 of the object side surface of the sixth lens and the radius of curvature R12 of the image side surface of the sixth lens may satisfy: -3.5 < R11 / R12 < -0.5. The effective focal length f6 of the sixth lens, the refractive index N6 of the sixth lens, and the outer diameter D5m of the image side surface of the fifth spacer element may satisfy: -4.5 < D5m / f6 × N6 < -1.5. By controlling the above conditional expressions, the ratio of the radius of curvature of the object side surface and the image side surface of the sixth lens can be constrained within a reasonable range. At the same time, with a reasonable effective focal length and refractive index of the sixth lens, the light can be refracted by the sixth lens and converge on the Gaussian image plane, reducing the influence of spherical aberration on the imaging quality of the optical imaging system and improving the optical performance of the optical imaging system.

[0063] In an exemplary embodiment, the central thickness CT5 of the fifth lens on the optical axis and the outer diameter D5s of the object side surface of the fifth spacer element may satisfy: 3 < D5s / CT5 < 6. By constraining the outer diameter of the object side surface of the fifth spacer element and the central thickness of the fifth lens on the optical axis within a reasonable range, the overall shape and external dimensions of the fifth lens can be effectively constrained, avoiding problems caused by insufficient dimensions in the design of the suction nozzle, coating plate, etc. of the mechanism part (i.e., the non-effective diameter part) of the fifth lens.

[0064] In an exemplary embodiment, the effective focal length f4 of the fourth lens, the outer diameter D4s of the object side surface of the fourth spacer element, and the inner diameter d4m of the image side surface of the fourth spacer element may satisfy: -2 < (D4s - d4m) / f4 < 0. By constraining the ratio of the difference between the outer diameter of the object side surface and the inner diameter of the image side surface of the fourth spacer element to the effective focal length of the fourth lens within a reasonable range, the overall shape of the fourth lens can be constrained, which is beneficial to the processing and forming of the fourth lens. At the same time, the outer diameter of the object side surface and the inner diameter of the image side surface of the fourth spacer element can also be constrained. While effectively controlling the structural dimension step between the fourth lens and the fifth lens and improving the assembly stability of the fourth lens and the fifth lens, the fourth spacer element is used to block the ineffective light rays at the edge of the effective diameter of the fourth lens, reducing the risk of stray light in the optical imaging system.

[0065] In an exemplary embodiment, the axial distance SAG52 between the intersection of the image side surface of the fifth lens and the optical axis and the vertex of the effective radius of the image side surface of the fifth lens, the axial distance SAG61 between the intersection of the object side surface of the sixth lens and the optical axis and the vertex of the effective radius of the object side surface of the sixth lens, and the interval EP45 between the fourth spacer element and the fifth spacer element along the optical axis may satisfy: 1.2 < |SAG61 + SAG52| / EP45 < 2.4. By controlling the above conditional expression, the gap between the edges of the optical surfaces of the fifth lens and the sixth lens and the direction of the effective marginal rays can be constrained, which is beneficial to the placement of the spacer element between the fifth lens and the sixth lens and reduces the stray light risk of the optical imaging system.

[0066] In an exemplary embodiment, the central thickness CT4 of the fourth lens on the optical axis, the interval EP34 between the third spacer element and the fourth spacer element along the optical axis, and the interval EP45 between the fourth spacer element and the fifth spacer element along the optical axis may satisfy: 3 < (EP34 + EP45) / CT4 < 6. By controlling the above conditional expression, the intervals between the third spacer element and the fourth spacer element along the optical axis and between the fourth spacer element and the fifth spacer element along the optical axis can be respectively limited within a certain range, which is beneficial to constraining the edge thicknesses of the fourth lens and the fifth lens and improving the processing and molding properties of the fourth lens and the fifth lens; at the same time, the central thickness of the fourth lens can also be limited within a certain range, which is beneficial to constraining the thickness ratio of the fourth lens, reducing the molding appearance joint line and stray light risk, and improving the appearance and imaging quality.

[0067] In an exemplary embodiment, the radius of curvature R5 of the object side surface of the third lens and the radius of curvature R6 of the image side surface of the third lens may satisfy: -1.8 < R6 / R5 < -0.5, and the effective focal length f3 of the third lens, the central thickness CT3 of the third lens on the optical axis, and the maximum thickness CP3 of the third spacer element may satisfy: 1.5 < f3 / (CP3 + CT3)) < 3.5. By controlling the ratio of the radius of curvature of the image side surface and the object side surface of the third lens, the problem of poor imaging caused by spherical aberration can be improved; at the same time, by matching a reasonable ratio of the effective focal length of the third lens to the sum of the thicknesses of the third spacer element and the third lens, the surface shape and structural dimensions of the third lens can be constrained, which is beneficial to the processing and molding of the third lens.

[0068] In an exemplary embodiment, the combined focal length f23 of the second lens and the third lens, the air gap T23 between the second lens and the third lens on the optical axis, and the gap EP23 between the second spacer element and the third spacer element along the optical axis may satisfy: 2 < f23 / (EP23 + T23) < 4.5. By controlling the above conditional expression, the combined focal length of the second lens and the third lens can be constrained within a certain range, which is beneficial to restricting the trend and direction of light rays between the second lens and the third lens and reducing the sensitivity of the lens; at the same time, the air gap between the second lens and the third lens on the optical axis and the gap between the second spacer element and the third spacer element along the optical axis can also be constrained within a certain range, which is beneficial to restricting the shapes of the second lens and the third lens, improving the processing and forming properties of the second lens and the third lens, and enhancing the assembly stability and imaging quality of the optical imaging system.

[0069] In an exemplary embodiment, the inner diameter d2s of the object side surface of the second spacer element, the outer diameter D2s of the object side surface of the second spacer element, the inner diameter d3s of the object side surface of the third spacer element, and the outer diameter D3s of the object side surface of the third spacer element may satisfy: 1 < (D3s - d3s) / (D2s - d2s) < 3. By controlling the above conditional expression, the inner and outer diameters of the object side surface of the third spacer element can be restricted within a reasonable range, which is beneficial to constraining the contact position and size between the third spacer element and the third lens and improving the assembly force stability; at the same time, the inner and outer diameters of the object side surface of the second spacer element can also be restricted within a reasonable range, effectively constraining the misalignment amount of the contact between the second lens and the third lens, and reducing the risk of deformation of the third lens caused by excessive assembly step difference between the second lens and the third lens.

[0070] In an exemplary embodiment, the inner diameter d1s of the object side surface of the first spacer element and the entrance pupil diameter EPD of the optical imaging system may satisfy: 1.2 < d1s / EPD < 1.8. By controlling the ratio of the inner diameter of the object side surface of the first spacer element to the entrance pupil diameter of the optical imaging system, it is beneficial to adjust the light passing amount of light rays entering the third lens and reduce the stray light generated after the light rays pass through the third lens; at the same time, the first spacer element can also effectively intercept the invalid light rays at the edge of the optical imaging system, reduce the risk of stray light generated by the reflection of the invalid light rays in the lens group, and avoid blocking the effective light rays, thereby enhancing the illuminance and picture quality of the optical imaging system.

[0071] In an exemplary embodiment, the maximum thickness of the second spacer element is greater than the maximum thickness of any one of the spacer elements in the spacer element group other than the second spacer element, and the air gap T12 between the first lens and the second lens on the optical axis and the maximum thickness CP2 of the second spacer element satisfy: 1 < T12 / CP2 < 2.1. By making the second spacer element have a larger thickness, it is beneficial to thin the mechanical parts (i.e., non-effective diameter parts) of the second lens and the third lens, and it is more conducive to the processing and forming of the second lens and the third lens; at the same time, the air gap between the first lens and the second lens is larger. By controlling the ratio of this air gap to the maximum thickness of the second spacer element, it is beneficial to constrain the thickness of the second spacer element within a reasonable range, and on the basis of making the second spacer element meet the processing requirements, improve the assembly stability of the optical imaging system.

[0072] In an exemplary embodiment, the effective focal length f2 of the second lens and the outer diameter D2bs of the object side surface of the second auxiliary spacer element satisfy: 1.2 < f2 / D2bs < 6.8, and the effective focal length f3 of the third lens, the refractive index N3 of the third lens and the inner diameter d2bm of the image side surface of the second auxiliary spacer element satisfy: 1.3 < f3 / d2bm × N3 < 2.1. By controlling the above conditional expressions, it is possible to constrain the effective focal lengths of the second lens and the third lens and the refractive index of the third lens, effectively control the overall structure of the second lens and the third lens, and constrain the trend of the effective light rays, which is beneficial to the main value parameters of the system; at the same time, it is also possible to constrain the outer diameter of the object side surface and the inner diameter of the image side surface of the second auxiliary spacer element, and use the second auxiliary spacer element to block the marginal ineffective light rays and the structural reflected stray light rays between the second lens and the third lens, reduce the risk of stray light rays entering the third lens, and under the action of the second auxiliary spacer element, it is beneficial to reduce the inner hole size of the second spacer element, further reduce the stray light reflection of the inner hole inclined surface of the second spacer element, and improve the imaging quality of the optical imaging system.

[0073] In an exemplary embodiment, half of the maximum field angle of the optical imaging system, Semi-FOV, satisfies: 60° < Semi-FOV < 68°. By constraining half of the maximum field angle of the optical imaging system within the range of 60° to 68°, it is possible to control the aperture size of the optical imaging system and ensure the light incident amount of the optical imaging system.

[0074] In an exemplary embodiment, the maximum thickness CP2 of the second spacer element and the maximum thickness CP3 of the third spacer element satisfy: 1 < CP2 / CP3 < 23. By controlling the above conditional expressions, it is possible to constrain the thicknesses of the second spacer element and the third spacer element within a reasonable range, and avoid the problems of easy generation of stray light caused by too large thickness of the spacer element or difficult processing and forming caused by too small thickness.

[0075] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical imaging system further includes an aperture stop disposed between the second lens and the third lens.

[0076] The optical imaging system according to the above embodiments of this application can employ six lenses and at least one spacer element. By rationally allocating the parameters of each lens and each spacer element, the stray light risk of the optical imaging system can be reduced, and the fabrication formability, assembly stability, and imaging quality of the optical imaging system can be improved.

[0077] In embodiments of this application, at least one of the surfaces of the first to sixth lenses is an aspherical surface. An aspherical lens is characterized by a continuously changing curvature from its center to its periphery. Unlike a spherical lens, which has a constant curvature from its center to its periphery, an aspherical lens has superior curvature radius characteristics, offering advantages in improving distortion and astigmatism. By using an aspherical lens, aberrations occurring during imaging can be eliminated as much as possible, thereby improving image quality. Optionally, both the object-side and image-side surfaces of the second to sixth lenses are aspherical surfaces.

[0078] A second aspect of this application provides an optical imaging system comprising a lens barrel and a six-element lens group and a spacer element group disposed within the lens barrel. The six-element lens group includes a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, a fifth lens, and a sixth lens arranged sequentially along the optical axis from the object side to the image side; the first, fourth, and sixth lenses have negative optical power, and the second, third, and fifth lenses have positive optical power. The spacer element group includes a second spacer element disposed on and in contact with the image side of the second lens, and a third spacer element disposed on and in contact with the image side of the third lens.

[0079] Among them, half of the maximum field angle of view of the optical imaging system, Semi-FOV, satisfies: 60° < Semi-FOV < 68°; the maximum thickness CP2 of the second spacer element and the maximum thickness CP3 of the third spacer element satisfy: 16 < CP2 / CP3 < 23; the combined focal length f23 of the second lens and the third lens, the air gap T23 between the second lens and the third lens on the optical axis, and the spacer EP23 between the second spacer element and the third spacer element along the optical axis satisfy: 2 < f23 / (EP23 + T23) < 4.5. By making the optical imaging system satisfy "60° < Semi-FOV < 68°", the aperture size of the optical imaging system can be controlled, and the light input of the optical imaging system can be ensured. At the same time, by controlling the optical imaging system to satisfy "16 < CP2 / CP3 < 23" and "2 < f23 / (EP23 + T23) < 4.5", the combined focal length of the second lens and the third lens can be constrained within a certain range, which is beneficial to controlling the trend and direction of light between the second lens and the third lens, reducing the sensitivity of the lens, and more beneficial to controlling the overall external dimensions of the optical imaging system; it can also constrain the air gap between the second lens and the third lens on the optical axis and the spacer between the second spacer element and the third spacer element along the optical axis within a certain range, which is beneficial to controlling the shapes of the second lens and the third lens, improving the processing formability of the second lens and the third lens, and improving the assembly stability and imaging quality of the optical imaging system.

[0080] Those skilled in the art should understand that, without departing from the technical solutions claimed in this application, the number of lenses and spacer elements constituting the optical imaging system can be changed to obtain the various results and advantages described in this specification.

[0091]

[0092] Where x is the distance vector from the vertex of the aspherical surface at a height of h along the optical axis; c is the paraxial curvature of the aspherical surface, c = 1 / R (i.e., the paraxial curvature c is the reciprocal of the radius of curvature R in Table 1 above); k is the conic coefficient; Ai is the i-th order correction coefficient of the aspherical surface. Table 2 gives the higher-order coefficients A4, A6, A8, A12 that can be used for each aspherical surface S1-S12 in Example 1. 10 A 12 A 14 A 16 A 18 A 20 A 22 A 24 A 26 and A 28 .
