[0036] The following specific embodiments will further illustrate the present invention in conjunction with the above-mentioned drawings. Specific Embodiments

[0037] To better understand the present application, more detailed descriptions of various aspects of the present application will be made with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these detailed descriptions are only descriptions of the embodiments of the present application and do not 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.

[0038] It should be noted that in this specification, the expressions such as first, second, third, etc. are only used to distinguish one feature from another feature, and do not represent any limitation on the features. Therefore, without departing from the teachings of the present invention, the first lens discussed below may also be referred to as the second lens or the third lens.

[0039] In the drawings, for ease of illustration, the thickness, size, and shape of the lens have been slightly exaggerated. Specifically, the spherical or aspherical shapes shown in the drawings are shown by way of example. That is, the spherical or aspherical shapes are not limited to the spherical or aspherical shapes shown in the drawings. The drawings are only examples and are not drawn to an exact scale.

[0040] In this document, the paraxial region refers to the region near the optical axis. If the lens surface is convex and the position of the convex surface is not defined, it means that the lens surface is convex at least in the paraxial region; if the lens surface is concave and the position of the concave surface is not defined, it means that the lens surface is concave at least in the paraxial region. The surface of each lens closest to the object being photographed is called the object side surface of the lens, and the surface of each lens closest to the imaging surface is called the image side surface of the lens.

[0041] It should also be understood that the terms "comprises", "comprising", "has", "including", and / or "including having", when used in this specification, indicate the presence of the stated features, elements, and / or components, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, elements, components, and / or combinations thereof. In addition, when an expression such as "at least one of..." appears after the list of listed features, it modifies the entire list of listed features, rather than modifying individual elements in the list. In addition, when describing the embodiments of the present application, the use of "may" means "one or more embodiments of the present application". And the term "exemplary" is intended to refer to an example or illustration.

[0042] Unless otherwise defined, all terms used herein (including technical and scientific terms) have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. It should also be understood that terms (such as those defined in a common dictionary) should be interpreted as having a meaning consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art and will not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense unless expressly so defined herein.

[0043] It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0044] The optical lens provided by the embodiment of the present invention is composed of seven lenses, which are, in order from the object side to the imaging surface along the optical axis, the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens, the fifth lens, the sixth lens, and the seventh lens.

[0045] In some embodiments, the first lens may have a positive focal power, with its object side being convex and its image side being convex. The second lens may have a positive focal power, with its object side being convex and its image side being concave. The third lens may have a negative focal power, with its object side being concave and its image side being convex. The fourth lens may have a positive focal power, with its object side being convex and its image side being convex. The fifth lens may have a negative focal power, with its object side being concave and its image side being convex. The sixth lens may have a positive focal power, with its object side being convex and its image side being either concave or convex. The seventh lens may have a negative focal power, with its object side being concave and its image side being either concave or convex.

[0046] In some embodiments, the optical lens may further include a diaphragm, and the diaphragm may be located between the third lens and the fourth lens. It can be understood that the diaphragm is used to limit the amount of incident light to change the brightness of the imaging. Additionally, when the diaphragm is located between the third lens and the fourth lens, the diaphragm can reasonably distribute the functions of the first lens to the seventh lens. For example, the first lens, the second lens, and the third lens can be used to receive light to a greater extent, and the fourth lens to the seventh lens can be used to correct aberrations, which is beneficial to balancing the structure of the entire optical system. In addition, when the diaphragm is located between the third lens and the fourth lens, it is convenient to correct the diaphragm aberration.

[0047] In some embodiments, the optical lens may further include a filter and a protective glass, and the filter and the protective glass may be sequentially disposed along the optical axis 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. The protective glass plays a role in protecting the optical lens, preventing the photosensitive chip from being damaged, and can improve the anti-impact and scratch-resistant capabilities of the optical lens, while having almost no impact on the imaging quality of the optical lens.

[0048] In some embodiments, the fourth lens and the fifth lens may be glued together to form a cemented lens, which can effectively correct the chromatic aberration of the optical lens, reduce the eccentricity sensitivity of the optical lens, balance the aberration of the optical lens, and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens; it can also reduce the assembly sensitivity of the optical lens, thereby reducing the processing difficulty of the optical lens and improving the assembly yield of the optical lens.

[0049] In some embodiments, the radius of curvature R5 of the object side of the third lens and the radius of curvature R6 of the image side of the third lens satisfy: -0.7 < (R5 - R6) / (R5 + R6) < -0.1. Meeting the above range, the third lens has a suitable surface shape and has the effect of diverging light, which can disperse the central light and marginal light of each field of view and correct the aberration generated by the front-end lens. More specifically, -0.57 < (R5 + R6) / (R5 - R6) < -0.2.

[0050] In some embodiments, the total optical length TTL of the optical lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 2.1 < TTL / f < 2.7. Meeting the above range can effectively limit the length of the lens and is conducive to the miniaturization of the optical lens. More specifically, 2.33 < TTL / f < 2.45.

[0051] In some embodiments, the total optical length TTL of the optical lens and the true image height IH corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens satisfy: 4 < TTL / IH < 4.8. Meeting the above range ensures that, with the same total length of the lens, it has a larger image plane, can match a larger-sized imaging chip to achieve high-definition imaging, and better realizes the balance between the small total length and the large image plane of the lens. More specifically, 4.38 < TTL / IH < 4.43.

[0052] In some embodiments, the maximum field of view angle FOV of the optical lens and the f-number Fno of the optical lens satisfy: 15° < FOV / Fno < 18°. Meeting the above range limits the optical lens to have a suitable field of view angle and f-number, can collect light at a large angle, and obtain good imaging quality. More specifically, 15.78° < FOV / Fno < 17.66°.

[0053] In some embodiments, the true 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: 0.85 < IH / EPD < 1.1. Meeting the above range can increase the width of the light beam incident on the optical lens, improve the brightness at the image plane of the optical lens, and avoid the generation of vignetting. More specifically, 0.9 < IH / EPD < 1.03.

[0054] In some embodiments, the clear aperture radius d1 of the object side of the first lens, the true 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: 6 < d1 / (IH / 2) / tan(FOV / 2) < 7.5. Meeting the above range can have a small front aperture while meeting the requirements of the optical lens having a large field of view angle and a large image plane. More specifically, 6.41 < d1 / (IH / 2) / tan(FOV / 2) < 7.09.

[0055] In some embodiments, the combined focal length f123 of the first lens, the second lens, and the third lens and the combined focal length f4567 of the fourth lens, the fifth lens, the sixth lens, and the seventh lens satisfy: 4.2 < f123 / f4567 < 20. Meeting the above range is conducive to balancing various aberrations of the system and improving the overall imaging quality by reasonably setting the focal length relationship of the lens groups before and after the aperture stop. More specifically, 4.65 < f123 / f4567 < 18.31.

[0056] In some embodiments, the focal length f1 of the first lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 2.7 < f1 / f < 4; the object-side curvature radius R1 of the first lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 3.5 < R1 / f < 6; the image-side curvature radius R2 of the first lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -7.5 < R2 / f < -6; the object-side curvature radius R1 of the first lens and the image-side curvature radius R2 of the first lens satisfy: -0.4 < (R1 + R2) / (R1 - R2) < 0. Meeting the above ranges, by setting the first lens to have a positive refractive power and a suitable surface shape, it has the effect of converging light, reducing the height of peripheral light, which is beneficial to reducing the aperture of the rear lens. More specifically, 2.95 < f1 / f < 3.89; 3.85 < R1 / f < 5.76; -6.83 < R2 / f < -6.18; -0.25 < (R1 + R2) / (R1 - R2) < -0.07.

[0057] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f2 of the second lens satisfy: 10 < f2 / f < 40; the object-side curvature radius R3 of the second lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 0.6 < R3 / f < 1.4; the image-side curvature radius R4 of the second lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 0.6 < R4 / f < 1.6. Meeting the above ranges, it is defined that the second lens has an appropriate positive optical power and a suitable surface shape, further converges light, and can share the positive optical power at the front end of the optical lens, thereby facilitating avoiding excessive light deflection caused by the overly concentrated optical power of the first lens and reducing the difficulty of aberration correction. More specifically, 11.37 < f2 / f < 37.33; 0.68 < R3 / f < 1.25; 0.79 < R4 / f < 1.48.

[0058] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f3 of the third lens satisfy: -7.5 < f3 / f < -2.5; the object-side curvature radius R5 of the third lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -1.4 < R5 / f < -0.8; the image-side curvature radius R6 of the third lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -5 < R6 / f < -1.2. Meeting the above ranges, the third lens has a negative optical power and a suitable surface shape, has the effect of diverging light, can disperse the central light and marginal light of each field of view, and can correct the aberration generated by the front lens. More specifically, -6.96 < f3 / f < -2.78; -1.31 < R5 / f < -0.86; -4.69 < R6 / f < -1.33.

[0059] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f4 of the fourth lens satisfy: 0.5 < f4 / f < 0.8; the object-side curvature radius R7 of the fourth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 0.45 < R7 / f < 1; the image-side curvature radius R8 of the fourth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -1.2 < R8 / f < -0.4; the object-side curvature radius R7 of the fourth lens and the image-side curvature radius R8 of the fourth lens satisfy: |(R7 + R8) / (R7 - R8)| < 0.5. Meeting the above ranges defines that the fourth lens has an appropriate positive optical power and surface shape, and the light rays converge further. And gluing the fourth lens with positive optical power and the fifth lens with negative optical power is beneficial for the light rays to enter the rear lens gently, can adjust the optical path difference between different fields of view, and improve the resolution. More specifically, 0.56 < f4 / f < 0.72; 0.5 < R7 / f < 0.95; -1.14 < R8 / f < -0.4; -0.37 < (R7 + R8) / (R7 - R8) < 0.4.

[0060] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f5 of the fifth lens satisfy: -2.5 < f5 / f < -1.8; the object-side curvature radius R9 of the fifth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -1.2 < R9 / f < -0.4; the image-side curvature radius R10 of the fifth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -2.9 < R10 / f < -0.6. Meeting the above ranges defines that the fifth lens has an appropriate negative optical power and a suitable surface shape, can diverge the light rays emitted by the fourth lens, make the light rays in the edge field of view show an upward trend, is beneficial for the image points on the imaging surface to be away from the optical axis, is beneficial for achieving the effect of matching with a large chip, obtaining a larger picture, can effectively eliminate aberrations, and improve the resolution ability of the optical lens. More specifically, -2.32 < f5 / f < -2.06; -1.14 < R9 / f < -0.4; -2.71 < R10 / f < -0.64.

[0061] In some embodiments, the true 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: 0.5 < IH / f < 0.6. Meeting the above ranges controls the image height and focal length of the optical lens within a reasonable range, which helps the optical lens to have the characteristic of a large image plane and improve the imaging quality. More specifically, 0.52 < IH / f < 0.56.

[0062] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the back focal length BFL of the optical lens satisfy: 0.21 < BFL / f < 0.31. Meeting the above ranges defines that the optical lens has an appropriate back focus, which is convenient for arranging the positions of the lenses reasonably and reducing the processing and assembly difficulty at the same time.

[0063] In some embodiments, the total optical length TTL of the optical lens and the sum ∑CT of the central thicknesses of the first lens to the seventh lens along the optical axis satisfy: 0.68 < ∑CT / TTL < 0.78. Satisfying the above range can effectively compress the total length of the optical lens, and is beneficial to the structural design and production process of the optical lens.

[0064] In some embodiments, the sum ∑CT of the central thicknesses of the first lens to the seventh lens along the optical axis and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 1.61 < ΣCT / f < 1.87. Satisfying the above range can effectively correct the field curvature and distortion of the optical lens and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens.

[0065] In some embodiments, the focal length f6 of the sixth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 1 < f6 / f < 1.6. Satisfying the above range defines that the sixth lens has a positive optical power, which is beneficial to the convergence of light rays, enables the light ray trend to smoothly transition to the rear, reduces the height of the light rays incident on the rear, slows down the upward trend of the light rays, avoids the light energy loss caused by too large an angle between the main light ray of the large field of view light rays and the chip when reaching the imaging surface, is beneficial to improving the illuminance of the edge field of view, and is beneficial to achieving a short total optical length. More specifically, 1.07 < f6 / f < 1.54.

[0066] In some embodiments, the focal length f7 of the seventh lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -0.6 < f7 / f < -0.5. Satisfying the above range can effectively balance various aberrations generated by the front lens group, and is beneficial to increasing the divergence degree of light rays, increasing the area of light rays entering the imaging surface, realizing large target surface imaging of the lens, and improving the imaging quality of the optical lens. More specifically, -0.58 < f7 / f < -0.52.

[0067] In some embodiments, the optical lens satisfies the following conditional expressions: 13 mm < f < 15 mm; 7 mm < EPD < 9 mm; 33 mm < TTL < 34 mm; 1.6 < Fno < 2; 20° < CRA < 30°; 3 mm < BFL < 4.5 mm; 29° < FOV < 32°; 7 mm < IH < 8 mm. In the above conditional expressions, f represents the effective focal length of the optical lens, EPD represents the entrance pupil diameter of the optical lens, TTL represents the overall optical length of the optical lens, Fno represents the f-number of the optical lens, CRA represents the chief ray angle of incidence of the optical lens, BFL represents the back focal length of the optical lens, FOV represents the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens, and IH represents the true image height corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens. Meeting the above ranges, the optical lens has at least one or more advantages such as a large image surface, a large aperture, and a long focal length characteristic. More specifically, 13.71 mm < f < 14.27 mm; 7.45 mm < EPD < 8.3 mm; 33.29 mm < TTL < 33.51 mm; 1.69 < Fno < 1.91; 21.8° < CRA < 28.56°; 3.01 mm < BFL < 4.3 mm; 29.9° < FOV < 31.1°; 7.54 mm < IH < 7.6 mm.

[0068] In some embodiments, the lens material in the optical lens provided by the present invention may be glass or plastic. When the lens material is plastic, the production cost can be effectively reduced. Additionally, when the lens material is glass, due to the low dispersion characteristic of the glass itself, the geometric chromatic aberration of the optical system can be effectively corrected. The optical lens provided by the present invention can adopt an all-glass lens structure, which can reduce dispersion, effectively correct the chromatic aberration of the optical lens, and improve the imaging quality.

[0069] In some embodiments, the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens, the fifth lens, the sixth lens, and the seventh lens can adopt spherical lenses or aspherical lenses. Compared with the spherical lens 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 realizing the miniaturization of the lens. More specifically, the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens, the fifth lens, the sixth lens, and the seventh lens of the present invention adopt spherical lenses.

[0070] The present invention will be further described in multiple embodiments below. In each embodiment, the thickness, curvature radius, and material selection of each lens in the optical lens are somewhat different. For specific differences, refer to the parameter tables of each embodiment.
