Detailed implementation
[0041] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It can be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the related invention and do not limit the invention. Additionally, it should be noted that for ease of description, only the parts related to the invention are shown in the drawings.
[0042] Explanatory Scanning Display System
[0043] For current scanning display imaging, it can be implemented by a Digital Micromirror Device (DMD) or a Fiber Scanning Display (FSD) device. Among them, the FSD scheme, as a new type of scanning display imaging method, realizes the scanning output of images through a fiber optic scanner. To enable those skilled in the art to clearly understand the solution of the present application, the brief principle and corresponding system of fiber optic scanning imaging will be described below.
[0044] As Figure 1a shown, a schematic scanning display system in the present application mainly includes:
[0045] Processor 100, laser group 110, fiber optic scanning module 120, transmission fiber 130, light source modulation circuit 140, scanning drive circuit 150, and beam combining unit 160.
[0046] Among them, the processor 100 can be a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU), a Central Processing Unit (CPU), or other chips or circuits with control functions and image processing functions, which are not specifically limited here.
[0047] When the system is working, the processor 100 can control the light source modulation circuit 140 to modulate the laser group 110 according to the image data to be displayed. The laser group 110 includes a plurality of monochromatic lasers, which emit light beams of different colors. As can be seen from FIG. 1, red (R), green (G), and blue (B) lasers can be specifically adopted in the laser group. The light beams emitted by the lasers in the laser group 110 are combined into a single laser beam by the beam combining unit 160 and coupled into the transmission optical fiber 130.
[0048] The processor 100 can also control the scanning drive circuit 150 to drive the fiber scanner in the fiber optic scanning module 120 to scan, so as to scan and output the light beam transmitted in the transmission optical fiber 130.
[0049] The light beam scanned and output by the fiber scanner acts on a pixel position on the surface of the medium, and a light spot is formed at this pixel position, thus realizing the scanning of this pixel position. Driven by the fiber scanner, the output end of the transmission optical fiber 130 sweeps along a certain scanning trajectory, so that the light beam moves to the corresponding pixel position. During the actual scanning process, the light beam transmitted by the transmission optical fiber 130 will form a light spot with corresponding image information (such as color, gray level or brightness) at each pixel position. In the time of one frame, the light beam traverses each pixel position at a high enough speed to complete the scanning of one frame of image. Due to the "persistence of vision" characteristic of the human eye observing things, the human eye cannot perceive the movement of the light beam at each pixel position, but sees a complete frame of image.
[0050] Continue to refer to Figure 1b , which is the specific structure of the fiber optic scanning module 120, including: a scanning actuator 121, a fiber optic cantilever 122, a lens group 123, a scanner housing 124 and a fixing member 125. The scanning actuator 121 is fixed in the scanner housing 124 through the fixing member 125. The transmission optical fiber 130 extends at the front end of the scanning actuator 121 to form a fiber optic cantilever 122 (also called a scanning optical fiber). During operation, the scanning actuator 121 is driven by a scanning drive signal, and its slow axis 121a (also called the first actuating part) vibrates in the vertical direction (this vertical direction is parallel to Figure 1a , 1b the Y axis in the reference coordinate system in, and in the present application, this vertical direction can also be called the first direction), and its fast axis 121b (also called the second actuating part) vibrates in the horizontal direction (this horizontal direction is parallel to Figure 1a , 1bThe X-axis in the reference coordinate system can vibrate in the horizontal direction (which can also be referred to as the second direction in this application). Driven by the scanning actuator 121, the front end of the fiber optic cantilever 122 sweeps two-dimensionally along a preset trajectory and emits a light beam. The emitted light beam can then pass through the lens group 123 to achieve scanning imaging. Generally, the structure formed by the scanning actuator 121 and the fiber optic cantilever 122 can be referred to as a fiber optic scanner.
[0051] As Figure 2a shown, in the embodiment of this application, through the movement of the fast and slow axes, the movement trajectory of the fiber optic light-emitting end forms a scanning surface 230. After passing through the corresponding lens group 123, it is converted into an imaging plane 240 (when imaging on a planar carrier, the image formed is planar. It should be noted that in other embodiments of the present invention, the image formed after passing through the lens group 123 can correspond to the surface of the imaging carrier, that is, it can change with the shape of the carrier surface as long as the imaging is clear).
[0052] For the convenience of description and to make it easy for those skilled in the art to understand the solution of this application, it should be noted that the optical imaging lens group in this application (such as Figure 2a the lens group 123 shown) acts as an eyepiece. Through the action of this optical imaging lens group, the scanning surface 230 can be converted into an imaging plane 240 (in actual application, the direction of light transmission is: from the scanning surface 230 to the imaging plane 240).
[0053] Furthermore, it should be noted that in the projection field, the image corresponding to the imaging end is a planar image, and the corresponding planar image carrier can be, for example, a projection screen, a curtain, the ground, a glass surface, or a wall surface, etc. The image corresponding to the light source end is a curved surface image, that is, an arc-shaped scanning surface scanned by the fiber optic scanner or emitted by other image sources; in the use scenario of the imaging field, the optical path is opposite to that in the projection field. Generally, the light source end corresponds to the object side for collecting image information, and the imaging end corresponds to the image side for collecting and imaging.
[0054] Optical Imaging Lens Group
[0055] The optical imaging lens group in the embodiments of the present application includes a plurality of lenses arranged coaxially in sequence from the second side to the first side. The focal length of the lens closest to the first side among the plurality of lenses is positive. The first side of the optical imaging lens group includes a diaphragm, and the distance between the surface of the lens closest to the first side among the plurality of lenses and the diaphragm on the optical axis is 0.1 mm to 0.23 mm. It should be noted that the distance between the surface of the lens closest to the first side among the plurality of lenses and the diaphragm on the optical axis affects the distance between the image-side focal plane and the exit pupil position on the optical axis, and the two are in a relationship similar to direct proportion. And the distance between the image-side focal plane and the exit pupil position on the optical axis affects the distance between the entrance and exit pupil positions and the object-side focal plane, and the two are in a relationship similar to inverse proportion. Further, the second corresponding image of the optical imaging lens group in the embodiments of the present application is a curved surface image. In order to enable the optical imaging lens group to collect appropriate light, the distance between the entrance pupil position and the object-side focal plane needs to approach the radius of the curved surface image. In the present application, by limiting the distance between the surface of the lens closest to the first side among the plurality of lenses and the diaphragm on the optical axis, the optical imaging lens group can receive more appropriate light in the curved surface image and achieve clear imaging of the image-side curved surface.
[0056] For the explanation of related terms, refer to the following:
[0057] Entrance pupil: The entrance pupil is the effective aperture that limits the incident light beam. It is the image formed by the aperture stop for the front optical system and is the conjugate image of the aperture stop in the object space. The entrance pupil corresponds to the exit pupil.
[0058] Entrance pupil position: The entrance pupil position is the position point of the image formed by the aperture stop for the front optical system (such as the optical imaging lens group provided in the embodiments of the present application). The calculation of the entrance pupil position is to regard the center of the aperture stop as an object point and perform ray tracing forward to the front optical system to obtain the intersection coordinates with the point on the optical axis. Usually, the distance from the first lens surface is used as the entrance pupil distance.
[0059] Exit pupil: The image formed by the aperture stop of the optical system in the imaging space of the optical system is the exit pupil of the lens.
[0060] Exit pupil position refers to the position point of the image formed by the aperture stop for the rear optical system (such as the optical imaging lens group provided in the embodiments of the present application). The calculation of the exit pupil position is to regard the center of the aperture stop as an object point and perform ray tracing backward to the rear optical system to obtain the intersection coordinates with the point on the optical axis. Usually, the distance from the last lens surface is used as the exit pupil distance.
[0061] Specifically refer to Figure 2b , along the direction extending from the second side to the first side, in sequence are the entrance pupil (entrance pupil position), the optical imaging lens group, the exit pupil (exit pupil position).
[0062] Further optionally, in some embodiments of the present invention, the distance between the entrance pupil position of the optical imaging module and the object-side focal plane on the optical axis is 1.65 mm to 2.04 mm. It should be noted that by further limiting the distance between the entrance pupil position of the optical imaging module and the object-side focal plane on the optical axis, the optical imaging lens group receives appropriate light rays in the curved surface image, realizing clear imaging of the image-side curved surface.
[0063] Further optionally, in some embodiments of the present invention, the surface of the second side of the optical imaging lens group is a concave surface, the second side corresponds to the curved surface image of the light source end, and the ratio of the distance between the entrance pupil position of the optical imaging module and the object-side focal plane on the optical axis to the radius of the curved surface image is 0.868 to 1.074. By limiting the distance between the entrance pupil position of the optical imaging module and the object-side focal plane on the optical axis and the radius of the curved surface image, at this time, this distance approaches the radius of the curved surface image, so that the optical imaging lens group receives appropriate light rays in the curved surface image, realizing clear imaging of the image-side curved surface.
[0064] Further, the following ratio relationship exists between the minimum negative lens in the optical imaging lens group and the total focal length of the optical imaging lens group: 0.4 ≤ |f 最小负 / f 总 | ≤ 0.55, where f 最小负 is the focal length of the minimum negative lens, and f 总 is the total focal length of the optical imaging lens group. It should be noted that by limiting the ratio relationship between the focal length of the minimum negative lens among the multiple lenses and the total focal length of the optical imaging lens group, the optical power of the entire optical imaging lens group system is reasonably dispersed and configured, thereby strengthening the correction of various aberrations and further ensuring the imaging quality of the optical imaging lens group.
[0065] Further optionally, in some embodiments of the present invention, the multiple lenses include a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, a fifth lens, and a sixth lens that are coaxially arranged in sequence from the second side to the first side. The focal length of the first lens is positive or negative, and the corresponding focal lengths of the second lens to the sixth lens are positive, negative, positive, negative, and positive respectively. It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present invention, by reasonably optimizing the positive and negative properties of the focal lengths of the six coaxial lenses of the optical imaging lens group, the optical power of the system can be reasonably dispersed, the aberrations generated by the lenses can be reduced, the purpose of correcting various aberrations can be achieved, and clear imaging of the image-side curved surface can be realized.
[0066] Further optionally, in some embodiments of the present invention, the achromatic aberration correction ability Z n of the cemented lens is represented by the following formula:
[0067] where n is 3, 5, 6, and Z n represents the achromatic aberration correction ability of the nth lens, and fn_1 and f n_2 represent the focal lengths of the positive lens and the negative lens corresponding to the cemented lens; Ab n_1 and Ab n_2 represent the Abbe numbers of the positive lens and the negative lens corresponding to the cemented lens; the achromatic aberration ability Z3 of the third lens is -0.167 to -0.07, the achromatic aberration ability Z5 of the fifth lens is -0.856 to -0.457, and the achromatic aberration ability Z6 of the sixth lens is -0.606 to -0.227. It should be noted that the closer the achromatic aberration ability of the cemented lens is to 0, the higher the ability of the cemented lens to eliminate chromatic aberration. In this example, the third lens and the fifth lens are used to eliminate spherical aberration and chromatic aberration during the imaging process. Further, the achromatic aberration ability of the sixth lens is used to balance the system field curvature, thereby ensuring the imaging quality.
[0068] Further optionally, in some embodiments of the present invention, the third lens, the fifth lens, and the sixth lens at least satisfy any one of the following conditions: the refractive index difference between the negative lens and the positive lens in the third lens is 0.14 to 0.45; the refractive index difference between the negative lens and the positive lens in the fifth lens is 0.05 to 0.18; the refractive index difference between the positive lens and the negative lens in the sixth lens is 0.18 to 0.5. It should be noted that by setting the refractive index difference between the negative lens and the positive lens in the third lens and the fifth lens within a more preferable range, spherical aberration and chromatic aberration during the imaging process can be further eliminated. At the same time, by setting the refractive index difference between the positive lens and the negative lens in the sixth lens within a more preferable range, it is used to balance the system field curvature and further improve the imaging quality.
[0069] Further optionally, in some embodiments of the present invention, the third lens, the fifth lens, and the sixth lens are all cemented lenses combined with a positive lens and a negative lens. Among them, the refractive index of the positive lens in the third lens and the fifth lens is less than that of the negative lens, and the refractive index of the positive lens in the sixth lens is greater than that of the negative lens. It should be noted that the refractive index of the positive lens in the third lens and the fifth lens being less than that of the negative lens can effectively eliminate spherical aberration and chromatic aberration during the imaging process, and the refractive index of the positive lens in the sixth lens being greater than that of the negative lens is used to balance the system field curvature, thereby ensuring the imaging quality.
[0070] Further optionally, in some embodiments of the present invention, the average refractive index of the negative lens of the optical imaging lens group is 1.693 to 1.85. It should be noted that by optimizing the refractive index of the negative lens in the optical imaging group, the dispersion coefficient of the corresponding lens can be reasonably controlled to improve the imaging quality and ensure that the optical imaging lens group has a large field of view. It should be noted that the average refractive index of the negative lens here refers to the average value of the refractive indices of the negative lenses among the first lens, the second lens, and the fourth lens in the optical imaging lens group and the refractive indices of the sub-lenses that are negative lenses among the third lens, the fifth lens, and the sixth lens.
[0071] Further optionally, referring to Figure 2c , in some embodiments of the present invention, the second side corresponds to the curved surface image at the light source end, and optionally, the curved surface image is formed by the configuration of the fiber scanner, and the surface on the second side of the optical imaging lens group is a concave surface. It should be noted that the surface on the second side of the optical imaging lens group is a concave surface, and the curved surface image and the concave surface on the second side face in the same direction, which can enable the lens closest to the curved surface image to be well adapted to the curved surface image, facilitating the reception of light with a large viewing angle, and thus more comprehensively and fully capturing the information from the curved surface image. It should be emphasized that the unique feature of the optical imaging lens group provided in the embodiments of the present application is that it can correct and clearly image the curved surface image corresponding to the light source end on the second side (i.e., on the first side).
[0072] Furthermore, in a possible implementation manner, the connection method between the multiple lenses can be spaced connection or bonded together by an adhesive method, which will be determined according to the actual application needs and is not limited here.
[0073] Further optionally, in a possible implementation manner, the multiple lenses are all made of plastic or glass. It should be noted that lenses made of plastic can effectively reduce production costs. Compared with glass materials, the cost of plastic lenses is one-twentieth to one-tenth of the cost of glass materials, so it is very conducive to low-cost mass production. In addition, plastic lenses can usually be injection-molded, with low processing difficulty and can be easily processed into various aspherical surface structures. At the same time, plastic materials can also reduce the overall weight of the lens, which is beneficial to the lightweight product design. When using glass materials, the refractive index of glass materials is higher and wider, which has an advantage in correcting lens aberration; the expansion coefficient of glass materials is much smaller, which is beneficial to precision assembly. In addition, due to the characteristics of glass itself, such as high temperature resistance, ultraviolet resistance, and acid and alkali resistance, the service life and performance stability of the lens group have strong advantages. Of course, it should be emphasized that in other embodiments of the present invention, it is not limited to the two materials of plastic and glass provided in the embodiments of the present invention, and it can also be other materials capable of making lenses.
[0074] Example 1
[0075] Figure 3 Schematic structural diagram of an optical imaging lens group provided for Example 1. The optical imaging lens group includes six lenses arranged in sequence along the optical axis direction, that is, a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, a fifth lens, and a sixth lens arranged coaxially in sequence from the second side to the first side. It should be noted that the focal lengths corresponding to the first lens to the sixth lens in the optical imaging lens group of this embodiment are negative, positive, negative, positive, negative, and positive respectively.
[0076] Further, the second side of the optical imaging lens group of this embodiment corresponds to the curved surface image 01 at the light source end. The numerical aperture (NA) of the lens of the optical imaging lens group is 0.27 mm, the total focal length is 1.578 mm, the exit pupil diameter is 0.74 mm, the working distance is 0.4 mm, the full field of view angle is 36 degrees, the distance between the entrance pupil position and the object-side focal plane is 2.04 mm, and the ratio of the distance between the entrance pupil distance and the object-side focal plane to the radius of the curved surface image is 1.074. It should be noted that referring to Figure 2c , the working distance in the embodiments of this specification refers to the distance between the concave surface on the second side of the optical mirror group and the curved surface image on the optical axis. In addition, the radius of the curved surface image in the embodiments of this application is 1.9 mm. In some alternative embodiments, the radius of the curved surface image can also be other sizes, such as greater than 1.9 mm or less than 1.9 mm. The radius of the curved surface image can be changed according to the structure of the fiber scanner. When the radius of the curved surface image is other sizes, the above ratio relationship also applies.
[0077] In the embodiments of this specification, the optical imaging lens group further includes a diaphragm, and the diaphragm can be located on the first side of the optical imaging lens group. Among them, the side of the optical imaging lens group close to the diaphragm is a convex surface, that is, the side of a sub-lens corresponding to the sixth lens (that is, the positive lens L6_2 in this embodiment) close to the diaphragm is a convex surface. Further, the distance d between the side of the positive lens L6_2 corresponding to the sixth lens close to the diaphragm and the diaphragm on the optical axis is 0.1 mm. It should be noted that in some embodiments of this application, when the side of the positive lens L6_2 corresponding to the sixth lens close to the diaphragm is a concave surface, the distance between the side of the positive lens L6_2 corresponding to the sixth lens close to the diaphragm and the diaphragm on the optical axis refers to the maximum distance between the concave surface and the diaphragm on the optical axis.

The sixth lens L6 includes a negative lens L6_1 and a positive lens L6_2. f 最小负 is the focal length of the smallest negative lens (i.e., the negative lens in the sixth lens in this embodiment), f 总 is the total focal length of the optical imaging lens group. In addition, in the embodiments of this specification, the smallest negative lens in the optical imaging lens group refers to the smallest negative lens among the sub-lenses corresponding to single lenses (such as the first lens, the second lens, the fourth lens) and cemented lenses (such as the third lens, the fifth lens, and the sixth lens).
