DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0025] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0026] See also Figures 1 to 10 The present invention provides a glass lens, liquid lens hybrid large depth of field double telecentric lens, including a glass lens group, a liquid lens and a lens aperture, the glass lens group includes 12 groups of single lenses and 3 groups of double glued lenses, wherein 8 groups of the single lenses are arranged at one end of a corresponding group of the double glued lenses, and the other 4 groups of the single lenses are arranged at the other end of the corresponding group of the double glued lenses, wherein 1 group of the double glued lenses is located on the left side of the liquid lens, and 2 groups of the double glued lenses are located on the right side of the liquid lens, the liquid lens is arranged next to the lens aperture, and the two ends of the lens aperture are respectively provided with a lens object plane and a lens image plane.
[0027] In this embodiment, by integrating the advantages of high telecentricity and low distortion of a double telecentric lens and the advantages of variable curvature and adjustable depth of field of a liquid lens, a glass lens and a liquid lens hybrid with a large depth of field that integrates large depth of field, high telecentricity and low distortion are successfully realized. The telecentricity of the lens is less than 0.01 degrees, the distortion is less than 0.5%, and the depth of field is more than 20 times that of a traditional double telecentric lens. In addition, the curvature radius and thickness of the 12 groups of single lenses and the 3 groups of double-cemented lenses all meet the preset optical path matching conditions. In this way, the technical problem that the traditional double telecentric lens has the advantages of high telecentricity and low distortion, but has a limited depth of field and is difficult to adapt to complex and changeable detection environments, especially when precise measurement of workpieces at different distances is required, the limitations of the traditional double telecentric lens are particularly prominent is effectively solved.
[0028] Furthermore, the front and rear surface curvature radii of the single lenses in 8 groups are both >0 and are bent toward the liquid lens, the front and rear surface curvature radii of the single lenses in 2 groups are both <0 and are bent toward the liquid lens, the rear surface curvature radius of the single lenses in 1 group is >0 and is bent away from the liquid lens, and the single lenses in 1 group are one of a biconvex and plano-convex structure, with a front surface curvature radius >0 and a rear surface curvature radius <0.
[0029] In this embodiment, the optical path is further optimized and the clarity and contrast of the imaging are improved by designing a specific curvature radius direction; at the same time, the single lens is one of a double convex and plano-convex structure, which provides more design possibilities and helps to meet the imaging requirements in different scenarios.
[0030] Furthermore, the driving mode of the liquid lens is one of electrowetting and piezoelectric driving, the response time is ≤10ms, and the curvature adjustment accuracy reaches ±0.0001.
[0031] In this embodiment, the short response time of this design ensures that the lens can quickly adjust the depth of field to meet the real-time imaging requirements; at the same time, the high curvature adjustment accuracy enables the lens to accurately control the depth of field and improve the accuracy and stability of imaging.
[0032] Furthermore, the aperture of the lens diaphragm is adjustable within a range of F / #=8 to 12, and can be adapted to imaging requirements under different lighting conditions.
[0033] In this embodiment, the aperture adjustability of the lens diaphragm enables the lens to adapt to imaging requirements under different lighting conditions, thereby improving the versatility and flexibility of the lens; at the same time, adjusting the aperture can further optimize the imaging quality and meet the imaging requirements in specific application scenarios.
[0034] Furthermore, the optical parameters of the lens aperture are telecentricity <0.01°, distortion <0.5%, and depth of field ≥10 mm.
[0035] In this embodiment, the uniformity and consistency of imaging are ensured by low telecentricity, avoiding image distortion caused by changes in viewing angle; low distortion improves the accuracy of imaging, making the lens suitable for application scenarios with high requirements on image quality; and the large depth of field enables the lens to maintain clear imaging over a wider range, enhancing the practicality and applicability of the lens.
[0036] Furthermore, the distance between the lens object plane and the lens image plane is 100-200 mm.
[0037] In this implementation, by specifying the distance range between the lens object plane and the lens image plane, the imaging quality of the lens within the working distance is ensured, thereby improving the practicality and stability of the lens.
[0038] Furthermore, the liquid lens dynamically adjusts the depth of field of the lens by adjusting the radius of curvature of the film.
