[0050] For a better understanding of the present application, various aspects of the present application will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these detailed descriptions are merely descriptions of embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the scope of the present application in any way. Throughout the specification, the same reference numerals refer to the same elements. The expression "and / or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0051] It should be noted that in this specification, the terms "first," "second," "third," etc., are used solely to distinguish one feature from another and do not limit the features. Thus, the first lens discussed below could also be referred to as the second lens or the third lens without departing from the teachings of the present invention.

[0053] In this article, the paraxial region refers to the area near the optical axis. If a lens surface is convex and the location of the convex surface is undefined, it means that the lens surface is convex at least in the paraxial region. If a lens surface is concave and the location of the concave surface is undefined, it means that the lens surface is concave at least in the paraxial region. The surface of each lens closest to the subject is called the object-side surface of the lens, and the surface of each lens closest to the imaging plane is called the image-side surface of the lens.

[0054] It should also be understood that the terms "comprises," "including," "having," "includes," and / or "comprising," when used in this specification, indicate the presence of the stated features, elements, and / or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, elements, components, and / or combinations thereof. In addition, when expressions such as "at least one of..." appear after a list of listed features, they modify the entire list of features rather than modifying the individual elements in the list. In addition, when describing embodiments of the present application, "may" is used to mean "one or more embodiments of the present application." And, the term "exemplary" is intended to refer to an example or illustration.

[0055] Unless otherwise defined, all terms used herein (including technical and scientific terms) have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. It should also be understood that terms (such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries) should be interpreted as having a meaning consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant technology and will not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense unless expressly defined as such herein.

[0056] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features of the embodiments in this application can be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0057] The optical lens provided in an embodiment of the present invention comprises seven lenses, which are arranged in order from the object side to the imaging surface along the optical axis: a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, a fifth lens, a sixth lens, and a seventh lens.

[0058] In some embodiments, the first lens may have a negative optical power, with its object side being convex and its image side being concave. The second lens may have a positive optical power, with its object side being concave and its image side being convex. The third lens may have a positive optical power, with its object side being convex and its image side being convex. The fourth lens may have a negative optical power, and its object side may be concave or convex, and its image side may be concave or convex. The fifth lens may have a positive optical power, and its object side may be concave or convex, and its image side may be concave or convex. The sixth lens may have a negative optical power, with its object side being concave, and its image side may be concave or convex. The seventh lens may have a negative optical power, and its object side may be concave or convex, and its image side is concave near the optical axis.

[0059] In some embodiments, the optical lens may further include an aperture, and the aperture may be located between the second lens and the third lens. It can be understood that the aperture is used to limit the amount of incident light to change the brightness of the imaging.

[0060] In some embodiments, the optical lens may further include a filter, and the filter may be disposed between the seventh lens and the imaging surface. The filter is used to filter out interfering light to prevent the interfering light from reaching the imaging surface of the optical lens and affecting normal imaging.

[0061] In some embodiments, the minimum edge thickness value ETmin among the first lens to the seventh lens and the maximum edge thickness value ETmax among the first lens to the seventh lens satisfy: 2.4 < ETmax / ETmin < 7.3. By satisfying the above conditional formula, since the thickness of each lens has a great influence on the total length of the optical lens, in order to achieve the miniaturized design of the optical lens, by controlling the ratio of the maximum edge thickness value of the seven lenses of the optical lens to the minimum edge thickness value of the seven lenses of the optical lens, the total length of the optical lens can be reduced, and it helps to reduce the distortion and aberration of the optical lens, and the imaging quality of the optical lens can be improved.

[0062] In some embodiments, the true image height IH corresponding to the maximum field angle of the optical lens and the entrance pupil diameter EPD of the optical lens satisfy: 4 < IH / EPD < 4.6. By satisfying the above conditional formula, an optical lens with a large image plane can have a relatively large entrance pupil diameter and a relatively high light transmittance, thereby increasing the imaging effect when the optical lens works in a dark environment, and reducing the aberration of the edge field of view.

[0063] In some embodiments, the maximum field of view angle FOV of the optical lens and the chief ray angle of incidence CRA at the maximum image height of the optical lens satisfy: 3 < FOV / CRA < 3.3. By satisfying the above conditional formula, the optical lens has a relatively large field of view angle by limiting the ratio of the field of view angle to the chief ray angle of incidence, so as to meet the requirements of large field of view angles of electronic devices such as mobile phones and laptop computers. At the same time, reducing the angle of incidence of the chief ray on the imaging surface can improve the photosensitive performance of the photosensitive element, which is beneficial to improving the imaging quality of the optical lens.

[0064] In some embodiments, the focal length f1 of the first lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -4.8 < f1 / f < -2.8. By satisfying the above conditional formula, setting the first lens of the optical lens as a lens with negative optical power can capture the light rays entering the optical lens at large angles, expanding the field of view angle range of the optical lens; at the same time, it is also beneficial to reduce the sensitivity of the optical lens and achieve the miniaturized design of the optical lens.

[0065] In some embodiments, the focal length f2 of the second lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 2.6 < f2 / f < 4.5. By satisfying the above conditional formula, it is beneficial to cooperate with the first lens to make light rays enter the optical lens at large angles, thereby expanding the field of view angle of the optical lens. At the same time, it is also beneficial to correct the astigmatism and chromatic aberration of the optical lens and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens.

[0066] In some embodiments, the focal length f4 of the fourth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -3 < f4 / f < -1.2. By satisfying the above conditional formula, as the intermediate lens of the imaging lens group, the negative refractive power provided by the fourth lens for the optical lens can better constrain the light beam, so it can be used to correct the chromatic aberration of the optical lens. At the same time, it can perform intermediate correction on the aberrations generated by the decentration of each lens on the object side and reduce the correction pressure of the subsequent lens group.

[0067] In some embodiments, the combined focal length f37 of the third lens, the fourth lens, the fifth lens, the sixth lens and the seventh lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 1.1 < f37 / f < 1.5. By satisfying the above conditional formula, it is possible to reasonably configure the proportion of the combined focal length of the third lens to the seventh lens in the effective focal length of the optical lens, which is beneficial to the reasonable transition of light rays between the third lens and the seventh lens. Thus, it is beneficial to reduce the height of the light beam exiting the optical lens, ensuring the reduction of the aberration of the optical lens and the effective aperture of each lens among the third lens to the seventh lens, meeting the requirements of miniaturized design.

[0068] In some embodiments, the central thickness CT1 of the first lens on the optical axis and the sag SAGX11 corresponding to the maximum clear aperture radius on the object side of the first lens satisfy: 0.7 < SAGX11 / CT1 < 1.2. By satisfying the above conditional formula and controlling the ratio of the sag of the object side surface of the first lens to the central thickness of the first lens on the optical axis, the surface shape of the object side surface can be biased towards being curved; at the same time, a larger sag is beneficial for the first lens to collect light rays in a large field of view, achieving high angular resolution at the center of the optical lens, and thus improving the imaging quality of the central region.

[0069] In some embodiments, the spacing CT12 between the first lens and the second lens on the optical axis and the total optical length TTL of the optical lens satisfy: 0.1 < CT12 / TTL < 0.2. By satisfying the above conditional formula, by reasonably configuring the air gap between the first lens and the second lens and adjusting the total length of the optical lens at the same time, the optical lens can be made more compact, reducing the risk of decentration of the lens while ensuring the imaging effect of the optical lens.

[0070] In some embodiments, the edge thickness ET1 of the first lens, the edge thickness ET2 of the second lens, the central thickness CT1 of the first lens on the optical axis, and the central thickness CT2 of the second lens on the optical axis satisfy: 1 < (ET1 + ET2) / (CT1 + CT2) < 1.2. By satisfying the above relational formula, the sum of the edge thicknesses of the first lens and the second lens is greater than the sum of the central thicknesses, which is beneficial for smoothing down the large-angle incident light rays, not bringing the pressure of aberration correction to the subsequent lenses, and reducing the sensitivity of the optical lens.

[0071] In some embodiments, the total optical length TTL of the optical lens and the f-number Fno of the optical lens satisfy: 5.1 mm < TTL / Fno < 6.4 mm. By satisfying the above conditional formula, by controlling the relationship between the total length of the optical lens and the f-number, it is ensured that the optical lens can meet the requirements of large aperture and miniaturization design, enabling the optical lens to obtain sufficient light transmission in a dim environment and meeting the needs of high-quality and high-definition shooting.

[0072] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the f-number Fno of the optical lens satisfy: 2.1 mm < f / Fno < 2.5 mm. By satisfying the above conditional formula, it can be ensured that an optical lens with a long focal length obtains more light input, realizes the characteristics of a large aperture, makes the scenery photographed by the optical lens brighter, and improves the imaging quality.

[0073] In some embodiments, the radius of curvature R1 of the object side surface of the first lens and the effective focal length f1 of the first lens satisfy: -0.3 < R1 / f1 < -0.1. Meeting the above conditional formula enables the optical lens to capture light rays incident at large angles, reduces the sensitivity of the optical lens, and realizes the characteristics of miniaturization; at the same time, it can prevent the object side surface of the first lens from being too curved, reduces the sensitivity to assembly eccentricity, and improves the yield rate.

[0074] In some embodiments, the radius of curvature R2 of the image side surface of the first lens and the effective focal length f1 of the first lens satisfy: -0.15 < R2 / f1 < -0.05. Meeting the above conditional formula controls the radius of curvature of the image side surface of the first lens within a certain range. Most of the light rays emitted by the first lens enter the object side surface of the second lens, and the light rays are overly gentle, which is beneficial to reducing light energy loss. At the same time, the light rays enter the rear lens gently, resulting in smaller aberrations, which is beneficial to achieving high resolution.

[0075] In some embodiments, the radius of curvature R1 of the object side surface of the first lens, the radius of curvature R2 of the image side surface of the first lens, and the effective focal length f1 of the first lens satisfy: -5.5 < f1 / (R1 + R2) < -2.5. Meeting the above conditional formula can constrain the surface shapes of the object side surface and the image side surface of the first lens, which is beneficial to reducing the bending degree of the light rays at the image side surface of the first lens, reducing the astigmatism amount of the optical lens, and balancing the astigmatism problem brought by the large field angle of the optical lens, so that the astigmatism of the optical lens is not too large while having a large field of view, thereby ensuring that the optical lens has excellent imaging quality.

[0076] In some embodiments, the optical lens satisfies the conditional formula: 11.6 mm < TTL < 12.7 mm; 4.6 mm < f < 5.1 mm; 115° < FOV < 125°; 2.1 mm < EPD < 2.5 mm; 1.9 < Fno < 2.4; 9.5 mm < IH < 10.2 mm; 3 mm < CSD11 < 3.5 mm; 2.1 mm < CSD12 < 2.6 mm; where, TTL represents the total optical length of the optical lens, f represents the effective focal length of the optical lens, FOV represents the maximum field angle of the optical lens, EPD represents the entrance pupil diameter of the optical lens, Fno represents the aperture value of the optical lens, IH represents the true image height corresponding to the maximum field angle of the optical lens, CSD11 represents the clear aperture radius of the object side end of the first lens, and CSD12 represents the clear aperture radius of the image side end of the first lens. Meeting the above conditions indicates that the optical lens provided by the embodiments of the present invention has at least one or more advantages of miniaturization, large aperture, small diameter, large field angle, high pixel, and large image height.

[0077] In some embodiments, the lens material of the optical lens provided by the present invention can be glass or plastic. When the lens material is plastic, production costs can be effectively reduced. Alternatively, when the lens material is glass, the inherent low dispersion of glass can be used to effectively correct the geometric chromatic aberration of the optical system. The optical lens provided by the present invention can utilize an all-plastic lens structure, which not only provides excellent imaging performance but also makes the lens structure more compact, effectively achieving a balance between miniaturization and high image quality.

[0078] In some embodiments, the first lens, second lens, third lens, fourth lens, fifth lens, sixth lens, and seventh lens may be spherical lenses or aspherical lenses. Compared to spherical structures, aspherical structures can effectively reduce the aberrations of the optical system, thereby reducing the number and size of lenses, and better achieving lens miniaturization. More specifically, the first lens, second lens, third lens, fourth lens, fifth lens, sixth lens, and seventh lens of the present invention may all be aspherical lenses, which can effectively reduce the aberrations of the optical lens, thereby reducing the number and size of lenses, and better achieving lens miniaturization.

[0079] In various embodiments of the present invention, when the lens is an aspheric lens, the shapes of the aspheric surfaces of the optical lens satisfy the following equations:

[0080] ;

[0081] Where z is the distance between the surface and the vertex in the direction of the optical axis, h is the distance from the optical axis to the surface, c is the curvature of the surface vertex, K is the quadratic surface coefficient, and B, C, D, E, F, G, and H are the fourth-order, sixth-order, eighth-order, tenth-order, twelfth-order, fourteenth-order, and sixteenth-order surface coefficients, respectively.

[0082] The present invention is further illustrated below with reference to several embodiments. In each embodiment, the thickness, radius of curvature, and material selection of each lens in the optical lens vary; for details, please refer to the parameter tables of each embodiment. The following embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Any other changes, substitutions, combinations, or simplifications that do not deviate from the novelties of the present invention shall be considered equivalent replacements and are included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
