Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of endoscopes, and in particular relates to a high-definition sinusoscope optical system. Background Art

[0002] An endoscope is a medical device that allows doctors to enter the body through natural orifices (such as the mouth, nose, anus, etc.) or small incisions to observe the condition of internal organs. It is an important tool for medical intervention and observation.

[0003] In order to ensure a positive image, the steering system of current endoscopes uses an odd number of steering units (rod mirror groups) for steering, that is, the rod mirror groups are set to 1, 3, 5, 7, etc.

[0004] It is difficult to achieve a large entrance pupil diameter in conventional nose mirrors. Generally, a 75-degree nose mirror with a lens thickness of 2.7-2.8mm has an entrance pupil diameter of 0.2mm, and the corresponding theoretical angular resolution is 5c / °. The actual angular resolution produced is generally only 3.5-4c / °, which cannot meet the HD standard. If the HD standard is to be met, the angular resolution must reach 4.8c / °@75 degrees, which is difficult to achieve with a conventional three-group rod mirror steering system. If a five-group rod mirror steering system is used, the system is difficult to design due to the limitations of the sinus mirror structure, including the corresponding viewing prism, which is also difficult to design and process. Summary of the invention

In addition, in the present invention, the descriptions such as "first", "second", "one", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In the description of the present invention, the meaning of "multiple" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly defined. In the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined and defined, the terms "connection", "fixation", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "fixation" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral body; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the ability of ordinary technicians in this field to implement. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the protection scope required by the present invention.

[0032] The following is a specific embodiment of the present invention, and Figure 1-5 , the technical solution of the present invention is further described, but the present invention is not limited to this embodiment.

[0033] A high-definition sinus mirror optical system comprises: an objective lens system 100, a steering system and an eyepiece system 600 arranged in sequence from the object side to the image side. The steering system comprises an even number of steering units arranged in sequence. In this embodiment, the number of steering units is four.

[0034] The high-definition sinusoscope optical system of the present invention increases the entrance pupil diameter of the system by using four sets of steering units compared to the conventional three sets of steering units, so that the angular resolution of the sinusoscope system is greater than 4.8c / °, reaching the high-definition standard. It should be noted that in the optical system, "c / °" is a unit used to describe spatial frequency, which represents the number of cycles that can be distinguished within each degree of viewing angle. This unit is usually used to measure the resolution of the human visual system or the resolution ability of the imaging system.

[0035] In the high-definition sinus mirror optical system of the present invention, the magnification of the objective lens system 100 is -1X, and in the steering system, the magnification of each group of steering units is also -1X. Since the present invention creatively uses four groups of steering units compared to the conventional three-rod mirror group steering system, the image formed after the steering system is an inverted image. In order to compensate for the problem that the image formed after adopting an even number of steering units is an inverted image, the present invention also sets the magnification of the eyepiece system 600 to -1X, that is, the eyepiece system 600 forms an inverted image. In order to be able to set the eyepiece system 600 as an inverted image system with a magnification of -1X, the length of the eyepiece system 600 needs to be increased, and the length of the eyepiece system 600 needs to be at least greater than 20mm. By setting the eyepiece system 600 to form an inverted image, it is used to compensate for the inverted image problem formed after adopting an even number of steering units, so that the entire system forms a positive image.

[0036] The objective lens system 100 of the high-definition sinus mirror optical system of the present invention is provided with a stray light barrier 160. Specifically, the objective lens system 100 includes an objective lens 1 110, an objective lens 2 120, an objective lens 3 130, and an objective lens 4 140 arranged in sequence from the object side to the image side, and the stray light barrier 160 is arranged between the objective lens 2 120 and the objective lens 3 130, and the stray light barrier 160 is offset against the objective lens 2 120 and the objective lens 3 130 respectively.

[0037] The stray light barrier 160 is a device used in an optical system to reduce or eliminate the influence of stray light. The working principle of the stray light barrier 160 is mainly to physically block unnecessary light to ensure that only the expected light can reach the observer's eyes. The present invention can shield the stray light that is not needed by the system by arranging the stray light barrier 160 in the objective lens group, and only allow the imaging light to pass through, thereby improving the contrast of the system.

[0038] like Figure 2 As shown, the specific structure of the objective lens system 100 in the present invention is as follows: the object side of objective lens 1 110 is a plane, and the image side is a concave surface; the object side and the image side of objective lens 2 120 are both planes; the object side of objective lens 3 130 is a concave surface, and the image side is a convex surface; objective lens 4 140 includes a glued lens 1 141 and a lens 2 142, the object side of lens 1 141 is a convex surface, and the image side is a concave surface, and the object side of lens 2 142 is a convex surface, and the image side is a convex surface.

[0039] The objective lens system 100 further includes an objective lens 5 150, which is disposed between the objective lens 4 140 and the steering system. The objective lens 5 150 includes a glued lens 3 151 and a lens 4 152. The lens 3 151 has a concave surface on the object side and an image side, and the lens 4 152 has a convex surface on the object side and an image side. There are intervals between each of the objective lens 1 110, the objective lens 2 120, the objective lens 3 130, the objective lens 4 140 and the objective lens 5 150.

[0040] It should be noted that the objective lens system 100 in the present invention can achieve the purpose of the present invention by using objective lens 1 110, objective lens 2 120, objective lens 3 130, and objective lens 4 140. In this embodiment, objective lens 5 150 is provided to further improve the imaging quality of the system.

[0041] The steering system in the present invention has an even number of steering units, four in the present embodiment, namely a first steering unit 200, a second steering unit 300, a third steering unit 400 and a fourth steering unit 500, the structures of the four steering units are identical to each other, specifically, the structures of the first steering unit 200 and the third steering unit 400 are identical, and the structures of the second steering unit 300 and the fourth steering unit 500 are identical. In other embodiments, all steering unit structures may also be identical.

[0042] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, the steering unit includes a rod mirror 1 210, a steering mirror 220 and a rod mirror 2 230 arranged in sequence from the object side to the image side, and the steering mirror 220 is set as a glued mirror group.

In this embodiment, the rod mirror 1 210 and the rod mirror 2 230 have the same structure, and the two are arranged in reverse.

[0043] It should be noted that the steering unit in the present invention is not limited to the structure in this embodiment (the steering mirror 220 is arranged between two rod mirrors), and can also be set to other structures, such as the steering mirror 220 is arranged on one side of the steering unit, or the steering mirror 220 is arranged on both sides of the steering unit, etc.

[0044] The eyepiece system 600 of the present invention includes eyepiece 1 610, eyepiece 2 620, eyepiece 3 630, eyepiece 4 640, eyepiece 5 650 and eyepiece 6 660 arranged in sequence from the object side to the image side, and the eyepiece 1 610, eyepiece 4 640 and eyepiece 6 60 are arranged as a glued lens group. The eyepiece 1 610, eyepiece 2 620, eyepiece 3 630, eyepiece 4 640, eyepiece 5 650 and eyepiece 6 60 are provided with intervals between each two.

[0046] In summary, the objective lens system 100 in the high-definition sinusoscope optical system of the present invention has a stray light bar 160 that helps to eliminate stray light and improve the contrast of the high-definition sinusoscope. At the same time, the system contains four sets of steering units, plus an eyepiece with a magnification of -1X, to form a complete sinusoscope optical system. The system has the characteristics of eliminating stray light and high resolution. At the same time, the distortion of the system is about 10%, achieving a small distortion function.
