Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of imaging lenses, in particular to an optical lens. BACKGROUND

[0002] Long-focus cameras can meet the needs of consumers to shoot specific targets, but the total length of the traditional long-focus camera is too large, which does not meet the design requirements of the thin and light smart phone.

[0003] In order to give the mobile phone photography stronger telephoto long-focus characteristics, the periscopic mobile phone lens has been a hot topic since its inception and has become a standard configuration of some image flagship phones. The existing periscopic long-focus lens usually uses a right-angle prism or other catadioptric elements to turn the light path at the light inlet and then enter the optical system. This conventional periscopic scheme has many disadvantages and shortcomings, which is not conducive to the optimization of aberration and the adjustment of different architectures of the whole machine. SUMMARY

[0004] In view of the above problems, the purpose of the present application is to provide an optical lens with the advantages of excellent imaging quality.

[0005] The technical scheme adopted by the present application is:

[0006] An optical lens composed of four lenses and one reflecting element, including from the object side to the imaging surface in the order of:

[0007] The first lens with positive refractive power, the object side of which is convex, and the image side of which is concave;

[0008] The second lens with negative refractive power, the image side of which is concave;

[0009] The third lens with positive refractive power, the image side of which is convex;

[0010] The fourth lens with negative refractive power;

[0011] The reflecting element, which is a prism, includes an incident surface, a reflecting surface and an exit surface, all of which are flat. Light rays enter the prism along the optical axis from the incident surface, are reflected by the reflecting surface, and exit from the exit surface to the imaging surface. The reflecting surface and the optical axis of the incident surface and the optical axis of the exit surface form an included angle of 45°.

[0016] Further preferably, the distance TTL of the object side surface of the first lens to the imaging surface on the optical axis, the real image height IH corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens and the maximum field of view angle FOV of the optical lens satisfy: 0.05 / ° < TTL / IH / FOV < 0.055 / °.

[0017] Further preferably, the radius of curvature R1 of the object side surface of the first lens and the radius of curvature R2 of the image side surface of the first lens satisfy: 0.07 < R1 / R2 < 0.36.

[0018] Further preferably, the sum ∑CT of the central thicknesses of the first lens and the reflecting element along the optical axis respectively and the distance TTL of the object side surface of the first lens to the imaging surface on the optical axis satisfy: 0.5 < ∑CT / TTL < 0.54.

[0019] Further preferably, the effective focal length f of the optical lens, the maximum field of view angle FOV of the optical lens and the real image height IH corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens satisfy: 53° < (f x FOV) / IH < 56°.

[0020] Further preferably, the maximum field of view angle FOV of the optical lens and the aperture value Fno of the optical lens satisfy: 13° < FOV / Fno < 14°.

[0021] Further preferably, the half light passing radius DM11 of the object side surface of the first lens and the half light passing radius DM42 of the image side surface of the fourth lens satisfy: 1.3 < DM11 / DM42 < 1.5.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the object side beam of the optical lens of the present application passes through the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens and then the reflecting element, is reflected on the reflecting surface of the reflecting element, so that the optical axis is turned by 90°, and finally passes through the filtering treatment of the filter to achieve image collection on the photosensitive chip. The rear placement of the reflecting element facilitates the adjustment of the overall architecture. The long focal length, large image surface and periscopic imaging effect of the lens are better achieved, and the development trend of the ultra-thin portable electronic device such as a mobile phone is also met.

[0045] For a better understanding of the present application, various aspects of the present application will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It is to be noted that these detailed descriptions are only descriptions of embodiments of the present application and do not limit the scope of the present application in any way. Throughout the specification, like reference numerals refer to like elements. The expression "and / or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0046] It should be noted that, in the present specification, the expressions first, second, third and the like are used only to distinguish one feature from another feature, and do not indicate any limitation on the features.

The drawings are merely examples and are not drawn to scale.

[0048] In this context, the paraxial region refers to a region near the optical axis. If a lens surface is convex and the position of the convex surface is not specified, it means that the lens surface is convex at least in the paraxial region. If a lens surface is concave and the position of the concave surface is not specified, it means that the lens surface is concave at least in the paraxial region. The surface of each lens closest to the object is referred to as the object side surface of the lens, and the surface of each lens closest to the image plane is referred to as the image side surface of the lens.

[0049] It should also be understood that the words "comprise," "comprising," "include," "including," and / or "has," "having," when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated features, elements, and / or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, elements, components, and / or groups thereof. Furthermore, when describing the embodiments of the present application, the word "may" is used to mean "one or more embodiments of the present application." Also, the word "example" is used to mean "serving as an example, instance, or illustration."

[0050] Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. It will be further understood that terms, such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries, should be interpreted as having a meaning that is consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art and will not be interpreted in an overly literal or overly formal sense unless expressly so defined herein.

[0051] It should be noted that the embodiments and features of the embodiments in the present application can be combined with each other without conflict. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0052] The optical lens provided by the embodiment of the present application is composed of four lenses and one reflecting element, and sequentially includes a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens and a reflecting element from the object side to the imaging surface along the light propagation direction. The reflecting element of the present application is used to fold the light, and by changing the angle of the light, the lens module can be arranged horizontally (such as the thickness direction of the mobile phone). The structure of the prism behind the lens is conducive to adjusting different architectures of the whole machine, reducing the overall thickness of the optical system, realizing the effect of the periscope long focal length of the lens, and is also conducive to the optimization of the aberration of the optical system.

[0053] In some embodiments, the first lens can have a positive focal power, the object side surface of which is convex, and the image side surface of which is concave. The second lens can have a negative focal power, the object side surface of which can be concave or convex, and the image side surface of which is concave. The third lens can have a positive focal power, the object side surface of which can be concave or convex, and the image side surface of which is convex. The fourth lens can have a negative focal power, the object side surface of which can be concave or convex, and the image side surface of which can be concave or convex.

[0054] Specifically, the reflecting element can be a prism, the prism including an incident plane, a reflecting plane and an exit plane, all of which are planes, light rays enter the prism from the incident plane along an optical axis, are reflected by the reflecting plane, and exit from the exit plane to an imaging plane; the reflecting plane of the reflecting element forms a 45° angle with the optical axis of the incident plane and the exit plane of the reflecting element, and the angle between the incident plane and the exit plane is 90°. The prism can be a right-angled triangular prism made of plastic.

[0055] In some embodiments, the optical lens can further include a diaphragm, which can be located between the object side and the first lens or between the first lens and the second lens. It can be understood that the diaphragm is used to limit the amount of light to change the brightness of the imaging.

[0056] In some embodiments, the optical lens can further include a filter, which can be disposed between the reflecting element and the imaging plane. The filter is used to filter out interference light to prevent interference light from reaching the imaging plane of the optical lens and affecting normal imaging.

[0057] The object beam of the optical lens of the present application sequentially passes through the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens, and is reflected on the reflecting plane of the prism when passing through the reflecting element, so that the optical axis is turned by 90°, and finally the light is filtered by the filter to complete image acquisition on the photosensitive chip (imaging plane).

[0058] In some embodiments, the focal length f3 of the third lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 0.46 < f3 / f < 1.52. Satisfying the above range, the third lens adopts a positive lens, which can re-converge the divergent light rays, compensate for the diverging effect of the negative lens, avoid excessive diffusion of the light path leading to uneven brightness of the image plane, and correct residual monochromatic aberrations such as spherical aberration and coma.

[0059] In some embodiments, the distance TTL (i.e. the propagation path length of light along the optical axis from the object side surface of the first lens to the imaging plane) from the object side surface of the first lens to the imaging plane on the optical axis and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 1.1 < TTL / f < 1.15. Satisfying the above range, on the premise of realizing a long-focus lens, the total length of the lens is shortened by realizing a periscope structure through the prism, which is beneficial to the miniaturization of the optical lens.

[0060] In some embodiments, the focal length f1 of the first lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 0.5 < f1 / f < 0.76. Satisfying the above range, as the first positive lens, the incident light rays are converged, the long-focus light path is constructed, and the basis for subsequent light path compression of the negative lens is provided.

[0061] In some embodiments, the real image height IH corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 0.62<IH / f<0.64. Satisfying the above range can make the lens have a longer focal length and a larger imaging surface.

[0062] In some embodiments, the distance TTL on the optical axis from the object side surface of the first lens to the imaging surface, the real image height IH corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens, and the maximum field of view angle FOV of the optical lens satisfy: 0.05 / °<TTL / IH / FOV<0.055 / °. Satisfying the above range can help balance the relationship among the total length, the image height, and the field of view angle of the optical lens.

[0063] In some embodiments, the radius of curvature R1 of the object side surface of the first lens and the radius of curvature R2 of the image side surface of the first lens satisfy: 0.07<R1 / R2<0.36. Satisfying the above range can make the incident light rays converge to a greater extent, and more light rays enter the system, which helps improve the light intake of the lens.

[0064] In some embodiments, the sum ∑CT of the central thicknesses of the first lens and the reflecting element along the optical axis and the distance TTL on the optical axis from the object side surface of the first lens to the imaging surface satisfy: 0.5<∑CT / TTL<0.54. Satisfying the above range can effectively compress the total length of the lens, while helping the structural design and production process of the lens. It can be understood that the central thickness of the reflecting element along the optical axis is the propagation path length of the incident surface to the exit surface along the optical axis, that is, the sum of the distance from the incident surface to the reflecting surface and the distance from the reflecting surface to the exit surface.

[0065] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens, the maximum field of view angle FOV of the optical lens, and the real image height IH corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens satisfy: 53°<(f×FOV) / IH<56°. Satisfying the above range can make the optical lens have good optical performance by reasonably limiting the relationship among the focal length, the field of view angle, and the image height of the optical lens, and can well capture the details of the subject.

[0066] In some embodiments, the maximum field of view angle FOV of the optical lens and the aperture value Fno of the optical lens satisfy: 13°<FOV / Fno<14°. Satisfying the above range can make the lens improve the light flux through a large aperture, and make the lens more compact, which is suitable for a periscope structure (such as a mobile phone long-focus lens), and the folded light path still maintains a small volume.

[0067] In some embodiments, the object-side half-aperture radius DM11 of the first lens and the image-side half-aperture radius DM42 of the fourth lens satisfy: 1.3 < DM11 / DM42 < 1.5. By satisfying the above range, by reasonably setting the focal length and aperture relationship of the first and last lenses, the area of the light entering the image plane is increased while ensuring that as much light as possible enters the system, thereby achieving high relative illumination and large image plane imaging of the lens.

[0068] In some embodiments, the focal length f2 of the second lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -2.8 < f2 / f < -0.4. By satisfying the above range, the second lens adopts a negative lens, which can diverge light, extend the equivalent focal length but shorten the physical light path length, and at the same time compensate for the aberration of the positive lens in the front group.

[0069] In some embodiments, the focal length f4 of the fourth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -40 < f4 / f < -0.7. By satisfying the above range, the fourth lens can correct field curvature, balance chromatic aberration, and form complementary dispersion in combination with the first three lenses, and adapt to the sensor image plane.

[0070] In some embodiments, the object-side curvature radius R7 of the fourth lens and the image-side curvature radius R8 of the fourth lens satisfy: -0.1 < R7 / R8 < 1.5. By satisfying the above range, it is beneficial to moderate the degree of deflection of light passing through the lens, and the aberration can be well reduced.

[0071] In some embodiments, the object-side curvature radius R1 of the first lens and the image-side curvature radius R2 of the first lens satisfy: -2.2 < (R1+R2) / (R1-R2) < -1.1. By satisfying the above range, the curvature radii of the object-side surface and the image-side surface of the first lens at the near optical axis are reasonably controlled, thereby being beneficial to control the shape of the first lens, correct the aberration generated by itself, and improve the imaging quality.

[0072] In some embodiments, the object-side curvature radius R1 of the first lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 0.25 < R1 / f < 0.3. By satisfying the above range, the direction of light can be controlled, spherical aberration can be reduced, coma can be corrected, light utilization can be increased, and stability can be improved.

[0073] In some embodiments, the focal length f1 of the first lens and the focal length f2 of the second lens satisfy: -1.25 < f1 / f2 < -0.2; the focal length f2 of the second lens and the focal length f3 of the third lens satisfy: -1.8 < f2 / f3 < -0.5; the focal length f3 of the third lens and the focal length f4 of the fourth lens satisfy: -1.6 < f3 / f4 < 0; and the focal length f1 of the first lens and the focal length f4 of the fourth lens satisfy: -0.8 < f1 / f4 < 0. Satisfying the above ranges, a positive-negative focal length combination is formed, which can improve the temperature drift stability of the lens, help to reduce the influence of the environment temperature on the lens group, and meet the compactness requirement of the lens.

[0074] In some embodiments, the distance CT12 between the first lens and the second lens on the optical axis, the distance CT23 between the second lens and the third lens on the optical axis, the distance CT34 between the third lens and the fourth lens on the optical axis, and the distance TTL from the object side surface of the first lens to the imaging surface on the optical axis satisfy: 0.06 < (CT12+CT23+CT34) / TTL < 0.09. Satisfying the above condition, the total length of the lens is compressed by reducing the distance between the first lens, the second lens, the third lens and the fourth lens.

[0075] In some embodiments, the real image height IH corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens and the entrance pupil diameter EPD of the optical lens satisfy: 1.5 < IH / EPD < 1.7. Satisfying the above range, the field of view and the light flux are balanced, and the imaging quality of the lens is improved.

[0076] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens, the maximum field of view angle FOV of the optical lens, and the real image height IH corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens satisfy: 0.97 < (2xfxtan(FOV / 2)) / IH < 0.98. Satisfying the above range, the lens has a small distortion value and can provide a high-definition imaging effect.

[0077] In the embodiments of the present application, the optical lens satisfies the following conditional expressions: 11.5 mm < TTL < 12.5 mm; 10.5 mm < f < 11 mm; 34° < FOV < 35°; 6.7 mm < IH < 6.9 mm; and 2.4 < Fno < 2.7. In the conditional expressions, TTL represents the distance from the object side surface of the first lens to the imaging surface on the optical axis (i.e., the propagation path length of the light along the optical axis from the object side surface of the first lens to the imaging surface), f represents the effective focal length of the optical lens, FOV represents the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens, IH represents the real image height corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens, and Fno represents the aperture value of the optical lens. Satisfying the above ranges, the optical lens has one or more advantages such as telephoto, miniaturization, large image surface, etc.

[0078] In some embodiments, the material of the four lenses in the optical lens provided by the present application can be glass or plastic. When the material of the lenses is plastic, the production cost can be effectively reduced. When the material of the lenses is glass, the geometric chromatic aberration of the optical system can be effectively corrected by the low dispersion characteristics of the glass. The optical lens provided by the present application can adopt a full-plastic lens structure, which not only has excellent imaging performance, but also has a compact structure, and can better achieve the balance between miniaturization and high image quality.

[0079] In some embodiments, the first lens, the second lens, the third lens and the fourth lens can adopt a spherical lens or an aspherical lens. Compared with the spherical structure, the aspherical structure can effectively reduce the aberration of the optical system, thereby reducing the number of lenses and the size of the lenses, and better achieving the miniaturization of the lens. More specifically, the first lens, the second lens, the third lens and the fourth lens of the present application can all adopt an aspherical lens, which can effectively reduce the aberration of the optical lens, thereby reducing the number of lenses and the size of the lenses, and better achieving the miniaturization of the lens.

[0080] In order to make the system have better optical performance, a plurality of aspherical lenses are used in the lens, and the shape of each aspherical surface of the optical lens satisfies the following equation:

[0081] ;

[0082] Wherein, z is the distance of the curved surface and the vertex of the curved surface in the direction of the optical axis, h is the distance from the optical axis to the curved surface, c is the curvature of the vertex of the curved surface, K is the quadratic surface coefficient, 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 curved surface coefficients, respectively.

[0083] The present application will be further described in the following embodiments. In each embodiment, the thickness, the radius of curvature and the material selection of each lens in the optical lens are different, and the specific differences can be referred to the parameter table of each embodiment. The following embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present application, but the embodiments of the present application are not limited to the following embodiments, and any changes, substitutions, combinations or simplifications made without departing from the innovative points of the present application should be regarded as equivalent replacement methods, and are included in the protection scope of the present application.
