[0002] At present, with the booming development of automotive assisted driving and autonomous driving technologies, in-vehicle cameras play a crucial role. There are various types of in-vehicle cameras, including interior view, rear view, front view, side view, surround view, etc. They each have unique functions and different application scenarios. For example, the main function of the front-view wide-angle camera is to accurately identify nearby objects, and in scenarios such as urban road conditions and low-speed vehicle driving, it can provide key information for driving.
[0003] The front-view camera is a core component of the ADAS (Advanced Driving Assistance System). It not only shoulders the important task of ranging, but also can accurately identify objects and clearly distinguish road markings. Therefore, the visual algorithms required for it are extremely complex and the technical threshold is quite high. In order to fully utilize the performance of the front-view camera, it is urgent to develop an optical lens with excellent imaging effects.

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.
[0050] 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.

[0052] 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.
[0053] It should also be understood that the terms "comprising", "including", "having", "containing", 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 a list of listed features, it modifies the entire list of listed features, rather than modifying an individual element in the list. In addition, when describing 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.
[0054] 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.
[0055] It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and in combination with the embodiments.
[0056] The optical lens provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes seven lenses, which are, 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.
[0057] In some embodiments, the first lens may have a negative optical power, its object side may be concave, and its image side may be concave. The second lens may have a positive optical power, its object side may be convex or concave, and its image side may be concave or convex. The third lens may have a positive optical power, its object side may be convex or concave, and its image side may be convex or concave. The fourth lens may have a positive optical power, its object side may be convex, and its image side may be convex. The fifth lens may have a negative optical power, its object side may be concave, and its image side may be concave. The sixth lens may have a positive optical power, its object side may be concave, and its image side may be convex. The seventh lens may have a negative optical power, its object side may be concave, and its image side may be convex.
[0058] In some embodiments, the optical lens may further include a diaphragm, and the diaphragm may be located between the second lens and the third lens. It can be understood that the diaphragm is used to limit the amount of incident light to change the brightness of the imaging. When the diaphragm is located between the second lens and the third lens, it is convenient for correcting the diaphragm aberration.
[0059] In some embodiments, the optical lens may further include a filter and a protective glass, which are sequentially arranged 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.
[0060] 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.
[0061] In some embodiments, the radius of curvature R13 of the object side of the seventh lens and the radius of curvature R14 of the image side of the seventh lens satisfy: -0.6 < (R13 - R14) / (R13 + R14) < -0.2; the radius of curvature R1 of the object side of the first lens and the radius of curvature R2 of the image side of the first lens satisfy: -0.8 < (R1 + R2) / (R1 - R2) < -0.4. Meeting the above ranges and controlling the seventh lens and the first lens to have appropriate surface shapes is beneficial to increasing the divergence degree of light, achieving large target surface imaging of the lens, and improving the imaging quality of the optical lens. More specifically: -0.56 < (R13 - R14) / (R13 + R14) < -0.23; -0.77 < (R1 + R2) / (R1 - R2) < -0.48.
[0062] In some embodiments, the total optical length TTL of the optical lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 1.8 < TTL / f < 2.3; 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: 3 < TTL / IH < 3.7. Meeting the above ranges is conducive to achieving the balance of a small volume and a large image plane of the optical lens, making the lens have a smaller total length. More specifically: 1.91 < TTL / f < 2.22; 3.06 < TTL / IH < 3.58.
[0063] In some embodiments, the maximum field of view angle FOV of the optical lens and the aperture value Fno of the optical lens satisfy: 21° < FOV / Fno < 22°; 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: 0.9 < IH / EPD < 1.1. Meeting the above ranges reasonably limits the ratio of the field of view angle to the aperture value, enabling the collection of light at large angles and obtaining good imaging quality. At the same time, reasonably limiting the ratio of the image height to the entrance pupil diameter is conducive to increasing the light transmission amount, making the peripheral field of view and the central field of view brighter and more uniform. More specifically: 21.2° < FOV / Fno < 21.89°; 0.98 < IH / EPD < 1.04.
[0064] In some embodiments, the back focal length BFL of the optical lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 0.26 < BFL / f < 0.33; the back focal length BFL of the optical lens and the total optical length TTL of the optical lens satisfy: 0.11 < BFL / TTL < 0.17. Meeting the above ranges limits the optical lens to have an appropriate back focus, facilitating the reasonable arrangement of the positions of each lens, while reducing the processing and assembly difficulty. At the same time, it is beneficial to reduce the interference between different components and improve the yield.
[0065] 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: 3.6 < d1 / (IH / 2) / tan(FOV / 2) < 4.5; the combined focal length f34567 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: 0.8 < f34567 / f < 1.8. Meeting the above ranges can reasonably arrange the overall geometry of the optical lens and improve its structural stability. At the same time, reasonably limiting the proportion of the optical power of the lens group behind the diaphragm is conducive to correcting the chromatic aberration and field curvature of the optical system, as well as reducing the light deflection angle, reducing the sensitivity, and reducing the lens forming difficulty. More specifically: 3.65 < d1 / (IH / 2) / tan(FOV / 2) < 4.47; 0.82 < f34567 / f < 1.77.
[0066] In some embodiments, the focal length f1 of the first lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -1.7 < f1 / f < -0.5; the radius of curvature R1 of the object side surface of the first lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -1.7 < R1 / f < -0.5; the radius of curvature R2 of the image side surface of the first lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 1.8 < R2 / f < 5.6. Meeting the above ranges, by reasonably defining the proportion of the optical power of the first lens and its surface shape, the light passing through it can be diverged, which is beneficial to achieving a small front aperture. More specifically: -1.57 < f1 / f < -0.57; -1.63 < R1 / f < -0.59; 1.88 < R2 / f < 5.59.
[0067] In some embodiments, the focal length f4 of the fourth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 0.7 < f4 / f < 0.9; the radius of curvature R7 of the object side surface of the fourth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 0.6 < R7 / f < 1.1; the radius of curvature R8 of the image side surface of the fourth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -2.1 < R8 / f < -0.6. Meeting the above ranges, by reasonably defining the proportion of the optical power of the fourth lens and its surface shape, the aberration of the optical lens can be effectively corrected, and the imaging quality can be improved. More specifically: 0.71 < f4 / f < 0.89; 0.65 < R7 / f < 1.04; -2.06 < R8 / f < -0.69.
[0068] 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 < 1.7; the radius of curvature R11 of the object side surface of the sixth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -18 < R11 / f < -3; the radius of curvature R12 of the image side surface of the sixth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -1.1 < R12 / f < -0.7. Meeting the above ranges, by reasonably defining the proportion of the optical power of the sixth lens and its surface shape, it is beneficial for the convergence of light, enabling the light trend to smoothly transition to the rear, reducing the height of the light incident on the rear, slowing down the upward trend of the light, and being beneficial to improving the illuminance of the edge field of view. More specifically: 1.07 < f6 / f < 1.64; -17.66 < R11 / f < -3.27; -1.04 < R12 / f < -0.76.
[0069] In some embodiments, the focal length f7 of the seventh lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -1.8 < f7 / f < -1.1; the radius of curvature R13 of the object side surface of the seventh lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -0.6 < R13 / f < -0.4; the radius of curvature R14 of the image side surface of the seventh lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -1.8 < R14 / f < -0.7. Satisfying the above ranges and reasonably defining the refractive power ratio and surface shape of the seventh lens is beneficial to increasing the divergence degree of light rays, increasing the area of light rays entering the imaging surface, achieving large target surface imaging of the lens, and improving the imaging quality of the optical lens. More specifically: -1.77 < f7 / f < -1.19; -0.53 < R13 / f < -0.41; -1.76 < R14 / f < -0.7.
[0070] In some embodiments, the radius of curvature R11 of the object side surface of the sixth lens and the radius of curvature R12 of the image side surface of the sixth lens satisfy: 0.5 < (R11 - R12) / (R11 + R12) < 1; the radius of curvature R7 of the object side surface of the fourth lens and the radius of curvature R8 of the image side surface of the fourth lens satisfy: |(R7 + R8) / (R7 - R8)| < 0.6. Satisfying the above ranges and controlling the sixth lens and the fourth lens to have appropriate surface shapes is beneficial to light convergence, enabling the light path to smoothly transition to the rear, reducing the height of light rays incident on the rear, slowing down the upward trend of light rays, and being beneficial to improving the illuminance of the edge field of view. Moreover, it can effectively correct the aberration of the optical lens and improve the imaging quality. More specifically: 0.53 < (R11 - R12) / (R11 + R12) < 0.91; -0.45 < (R7 + R8) / (R7 - R8) < 0.2.
[0071] In some embodiments, the true image height IH corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens, the effective focal length f of the optical lens, and the maximum field of view angle FOV of the optical lens satisfy: 0.97 < (IH / 2) / (f × tan(FOV / 2)) < 1.01. Satisfying the above range can control the optical lens to have less distortion and improve the imaging quality.
[0072] In some embodiments, the sum ΣCT of the central thicknesses of the first lens to the seventh lens along the optical axis respectively and the total optical length TTL of the optical lens satisfy: 0.58 < ΣCT / TTL < 0.7. Satisfying the above range and controlling the total optical length of the optical lens and the sum of the central thicknesses of each lens within a reasonable range helps to achieve high pixel characteristics and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0073] In some embodiments, the sum ΣCT 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: 1.13 < ΣCT / f < 1.53. By satisfying the above range and controlling the effective focal length of the optical lens and the sum of the central thicknesses of each lens within a reasonable range, the lens can be made more compact.
[0074] In some embodiments, the focal length f2 of the second lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 0.8 < f2 / f < 1.7. By satisfying the above range and reasonably defining the proportion of the optical power of the second lens, it has the effect of converging light rays, depressing the height of peripheral light rays, and is beneficial to reducing the aperture of the rear lens. More specifically: 0.8 < f2 / f < 1.56.
[0075] In some embodiments, the focal length f3 of the third lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 0.9 < f3 / f < 2.4. By satisfying the above range and reasonably defining the proportion of the optical power of the third lens, the aberration generated at the front end of the lens can be effectively corrected, and the imaging quality of the lens can be improved. More specifically: 0.96 < f3 / f < 2.38.
[0076] In some embodiments, the focal length f5 of the fifth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -0.7 < f5 / f < -0.4; the object-side curvature radius R9 of the fifth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -2.1 < R9 / f < -0.6; the image-side curvature radius R10 of the fifth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 0.5 < R10 / f < 1. By satisfying the above range and reasonably defining the proportion of the optical power of the fifth lens and its surface shape, spherical aberration can be optimized to achieve high-quality imaging. More specifically: -0.65 < f5 / f < -0.45; -2.06 < R9 / f < -0.69; 0.52 < R10 / f < 0.92.
[0077] In some embodiments, the optical lens satisfies the following conditional expressions: 14 mm < f < 16 mm; 30° < FOV < 40°; 9 mm < EPD < 10 mm; 29 mm < TTL < 33 mm; 1.5 < Fno < 1.7; 8.5 mm < IH < 10 mm; 17° < CRA < 22°; 3.5 mm < BFL < 5.5 mm. In the above conditional expressions, f represents the effective focal length of the optical lens, FOV represents the maximum field of view angle 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 aperture value of the optical lens, IH represents the true image height corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens, CRA represents the principal ray incident angle at the maximum image height of the optical lens, and BFL represents the back focal length of the optical lens. Meeting the above ranges, the optical lens has at least one or more advantages such as a large target surface, a large aperture, and low distortion. More specifically: 14.47 mm < f < 15.62 mm; 34° < FOV < 36°; 9.04 mm < EPD < 9.76 mm; 29.23 mm < TTL < 32.07 mm; 1.59 < Fno < 1.66; 8.97 mm < IH < 9.76 mm; 17.31° < CRA < 21.59°; 3.96 mm < BFL < 5.01 mm.
[0078] In some embodiments, the lens material in the optical lens provided by the present invention can 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.
[0079] 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 second lens of the present invention adopts an aspherical lens, and the first lens, the third lens, the fourth lens, the fifth lens, the sixth lens, and the seventh lens adopt spherical lenses.
[0080] In each embodiment of the present invention, when the lens adopts an aspherical lens, the surface shapes of the aspherical surfaces of the optical lens satisfy the following equations: ; Among them, z is the distance between the surface and the vertex of the surface in the optical axis direction, h is the distance from the optical axis to the surface, c is the curvature of the vertex of the surface, K is the conic coefficient, and B, C, D, E, F are the conic coefficients of the fourth, sixth, eighth, tenth, and twelfth orders respectively.
