Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] In recent years, with the explosive popularity of AI and the metaverse, people's entertainment options have become increasingly diverse, among which VR devices for human-computer interaction are gaining popularity. However, the visual systems currently integrated into VR devices have limited internal space to achieve diopter adjustment and adapt to miniaturized VR devices. During the light path reflection and transmission process, the space constraints of the lens barrel and different component groups lead to the generation of a large amount of stray light, thus affecting the user's visual experience. Therefore, how to rationally arrange the internal space of the visual system to ensure the range of diopter adjustment while reducing stray light generation is a very important issue.

[0052] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0053] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains.
[0054] In this invention, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "upper," "lower," "top," and "bottom" are generally used in relation to the direction shown in the accompanying drawings, or in relation to the vertical, perpendicular, or gravitational direction of the component itself; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours of each component itself, but the above directional terms are not intended to limit this invention.
[0055] It should be noted that in this specification, the terms "first," "second," "third," etc., are used only to distinguish one feature from another and do not imply any limitation on the features. Therefore, without departing from the teachings of this application, the first lens discussed below may also be referred to as the second lens or the third lens.
[0056] In the accompanying drawings, the thickness, size, and shape of the lenses have been slightly exaggerated for ease of illustration. Specifically, the shapes of the spherical or aspherical surfaces shown in the drawings are illustrated by way of example. That is, the shapes of the spherical or aspherical surfaces are not limited to those shown in the drawings. The drawings are for illustrative purposes only and are not drawn strictly to scale.
[0057] In this paper, the paraxial region refers to the region near the optical axis. If the lens surface is convex and the location of that convexity 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 location of that concaveness is not defined, it means that the lens surface is concave at least in the paraxial region. The determination of the surface shape in the paraxial region can be based on the judgment method commonly used by those knowledgeable in the field, using the R value (R refers to the radius of curvature of the paraxial region, usually the R value in the lens database of optical software) to determine convexity or concavity. For the eye-side surface, when the R value is positive, it is determined to be convex, and when the R value is negative, it is determined to be concave; for the display-side surface, when the R value is positive, it is determined to be concave, and when the R value is negative, it is determined to be convex.
[0058] To address the problem of severe stray light in existing visual systems, this invention provides a visual system.
[0059] First Implementation Method
[0060] like Figures 1 to 26As shown, the visual system includes an optical element group and a lens barrel group. The optical element group includes a first element group and a second element group. Along the optical axis of the visual system, the first element group includes, from the first side to the second side, a first lens, a polarizer, a reflective polarizing element, and a quarter-wave plate. The first lens has positive optical power, a first side surface of the first lens is convex, and a second side surface of the first lens is flat. The second element group includes, from the first side to the second side, a second lens, a partially reflective element, and a display. The second lens has positive optical power, a first side surface of the second lens is convex, and a second side surface of the second lens is convex. The lens barrel group includes a first lens barrel and a second lens barrel. The first element group rests on the first lens barrel, and at least a portion of the second element group rests on the second lens barrel. The second element group can move along the optical axis to approach or move away from the first element group; the maximum thickness La from the first side surface to the second side surface of the first lens barrel, the maximum thickness Lb from the first side surface to the second side surface of the second lens barrel, and the change in effective focal length Δf of the visual system moving from +2D state to -5D state satisfy: 3.45≤(La+Lb) / Δf≤7.79; the distance ΔL that the second element group moves along the optical axis when the visual system moves from +2D state to -5D state, the inner diameter dam of the second side surface of the first lens barrel, and the inner diameter dbs of the first side surface of the second lens barrel satisfy: 4.54mm≤ΔL×(dam / dbs)≤5.01mm.
[0061] This application achieves diopter adjustment from +2D to -5D by reasonably configuring the visual system and controlling (La+Lb) / Δf and ΔL×(dam / dbs) within a reasonable range. At the same time, it ensures that the total thickness of the first and second lens tubes is large enough to provide space for multiple reflections of the light path, avoids stray light interference and ghosting at the edge of the field of view caused by insufficient lens tube thickness, and prevents the lens tubes from being too thick and heavy, which would limit the size of the visual system and avoid light energy loss and contrast reduction due to excessively long optical path.
[0062] like Figures 26 to 28 The diagram shows the stray light energy of the visual systems in Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 2, and an alternative embodiment 1 of this application. Figure 27 As shown, when the visual system of Comparative Example 1 satisfies the conditions (La+Lb) / Δf=8.2 and ΔL×(dam / dbs)=5.5mm, the overall volume of the visual system is large, the lens barrel is too thick and the internal optical path is too long, resulting in a higher risk of light leakage and significantly stronger stray light energy. Figure 28As shown, when the visual system of Comparative Example 2 satisfies the conditions (La+Lb) / Δf=2.9 and ΔL×(dam / dbs)=4.1mm, the thickness of the first and second lens tubes is insufficient, resulting in spatial constraints during the optical path refracting process and thus severe stray light interference. In contrast, the visual system of Option 1 of this application... Figure 26 As shown, stray light energy is very low and effectively controlled, allowing users to obtain a good visual experience.
[0063] In this embodiment, the radius of curvature R3 of the first side surface of the second lens and the outer diameter Dbs of the first side surface of the second lens barrel satisfy the following condition: 3.08 ≤ R3 / Dbs ≤ 3.58. By limiting R3 / Dbs within a reasonable range, the internal focusing mechanism of the second element group can be supported. By moving the second element group to change the light refraction path, the focal length change is synchronized with the user's eye adjustment, thereby alleviating the dizziness caused by a fixed focal length. It also helps to make the structure of the visual system more compact, in line with the trend of VR devices becoming thinner and lighter. In addition, it helps to maintain the mechanical stability of the second element group and prevents the deformation of components due to frequent adjustments.
[0064] In this embodiment, the maximum thickness La from the first side surface to the second side surface of the first lens barrel, the effective focal length f1 of the first lens, and the radius of curvature R1 of the first side surface of the first lens satisfy the following: 2.65mm ≤ La / (f1 / R1) ≤ 6.57mm. By limiting La / (f1 / R1) within a reasonable range, the physical size of the first lens barrel can be limited, allowing it to accommodate the first element group while meeting the requirements for a thinner and lighter VR device. At the same time, it ensures the linearity and accuracy of the spacing adjustment between the first and second element groups, avoiding jamming due to excessively tight mechanical structure or insufficient adjustment stroke to cover the user's refractive power requirements.
[0065] In this embodiment, the inner diameter das of the first side surface of the first lens barrel and the center thickness CT1 of the first lens on the optical axis satisfy the following ratio: 9.04 ≤ das / CT1 ≤ 11.49. By limiting das / CT1 within a reasonable range, when the first lens barrel is made of plastic injection molding, the value of das / CT1 can directly affect the mold tolerance requirements. Satisfying the range of 9.04 ≤ das / CT1 ≤ 11.49 means that an easily moldable parameter combination has been selected, reducing defects such as flash and shrinkage during the molding process and improving the yield of the first lens barrel. At the same time, this ratio range allows for the installation of eye-tracking components by slotting the side wall of the first lens barrel while maintaining optical performance without interference. In addition, it also provides an adjustment margin of ±0.5mm or more for the motor-driven second element group, ensuring linear displacement accuracy.
[0066] In this embodiment, the combined focal length fz of the first lens, polarizer, reflective polarizing element, and quarter-wave plate, and the outer diameters Das and Dam of the first and second side surfaces of the first lens barrel satisfy the following condition: 1.63 ≤ fz / (Das+Dam) ≤ 1.98. By limiting fz / (Das+Dam) within a reasonable range, micron-level ventilation slots can be designed on the side of the first lens barrel. Air convection is used to control the temperature rise of the first lens and OLED screen to less than 5°C, avoiding polarization film aging or liquid crystal layer response delay caused by high temperatures, while also limiting the generation of higher-order dispersion (such as second-order spectral density). For the visible light band (400-700nm), the visual system can avoid color fringing or rainbow effects affecting visual immersion.
[0067] In this embodiment, the effective focal length f2 of the second lens and the inner diameter dbm of the second side surface of the second lens barrel satisfy the following condition: 3.10 ≤ f2 / dbm ≤ 3.37. By limiting f2 / dbm within a reasonable range, an assembly gap of ≥0.1mm can be maintained between the second lens and the second lens barrel wall, avoiding deformation of the second lens curvature or displacement of some reflective elements due to compression, ensuring stable performance of the optical components, and increasing the assembly margin, which can reduce the coating damage rate from 1.5% to below 0.05%.
[0068] In this embodiment, the outer diameter Dbm of the second side surface of the second lens barrel and the center thickness CT2 of the second lens on the optical axis satisfy the following condition: 8.98 ≤ Dbm / CT2 ≤ 11.44. By limiting Dbm / CT2 within a reasonable range, the contact area between the second lens barrel and the second lens is optimized, absorbing high-frequency vibrations during equipment use, preventing collisions between the second lens barrel and the second lens, and reducing image quality degradation caused by impact. Furthermore, a light-absorbing structure can be designed on the inner wall of the second lens barrel to control stray light intensity to below 0.5% of the total light intensity, preventing halos or ghosting on the screen.
[0069] In this embodiment, the maximum thickness Lb from the first side surface to the second side surface of the second lens barrel and the distance BFL from the second side surface of the second lens to the display on the optical axis satisfy the following condition: 5.78 ≤ Lb / BFL ≤ 10.67. By limiting Lb / BFL within a reasonable range, edge aberrations can be optimized, distortion can be reduced to less than 0.3%, and field curvature drift at high temperatures can be suppressed. By reserving a BFL adjustment margin, the assembly precision requirements are reduced, allowing imaging requirements to be met even when the cumulative tolerance is greater than 0.15mm, thus improving the production line yield. In addition, it provides a hardware foundation for integrating eye tracking and dynamic zoom algorithms, supports real-time focal length adjustment, and achieves suppression of "visual convergence-accommodation conflict".
[0070] In this embodiment, the outer diameter Dbs of the first side surface of the second lens barrel, the outer diameter Dbm of the second side surface of the second lens barrel, and the distance ΔL that the second element group moves along the optical axis when the viewing system moves from a +2D state to a -5D state satisfy the following condition: 0.45 ≤ (Dbs - Dbm) / ΔL ≤ 1.84. By limiting (Dbs - Dbm) / ΔL to a reasonable range, the matching between the outer diameter difference of the two side surfaces of the second lens barrel and the movement of the second element group is constrained, enhancing the axial rigidity of the second lens barrel and avoiding stress concentration due to excessive taper or deformation due to insufficient taper. Furthermore, it allows for the design of micron-level heat dissipation grooves on the sidewall of the second lens barrel, forming a convection airflow channel in conjunction with the movement space of the second element group, controlling the temperature rise of the OLED screen to less than 5°C and extending the display lifespan.
[0071] In this embodiment, the outer diameter Dam of the second side surface of the first lens barrel, the inner diameter dam of the second side surface of the first lens barrel, and the change in effective focal length Δf of the visual system moving from +2D to -5D satisfy the following condition: 1.01 ≤ (Dam - dam) / Δf ≤ 2.15. By limiting (Dam - dam) / Δf within a reasonable range, space is provided for the lateral mounting of a miniature infrared camera, supporting eye-tracking interaction functions with a tracking accuracy of less than 0.2°, while avoiding optical path obstruction. It can also accommodate injection molding shrinkage, reducing warping and shrinkage issues of the first lens barrel, and is suitable for thin-walled lens barrel structures. Furthermore, it ensures that light is reflected at the optimal incident angle, reducing polarization crosstalk and light intensity loss.
[0072] In this embodiment, the maximum thickness La from the first side surface to the second side surface of the first lens barrel satisfies the following relationship with the entrance pupil diameter EPD of the visual system: 1.23 ≤ La / EPD ≤ 3.00. By limiting La / EPD within a reasonable range, the radius of curvature of the aspherical lens can be optimized, and the wavefront errors of spherical aberration and coma can be controlled to less than 0.05λ (λ = 550nm), adapting to monocular 4K resolution. It can also balance the optical path folding depth and image field flatness, making edge distortion less than 0.3%, while suppressing field curvature drift at temperatures above 45°C.
[0073] In this embodiment, the maximum thickness Lb from the first side surface to the second side surface of the second lens barrel, and the radius of curvature R3 of the first side surface of the second lens and the radius of curvature R4 of the second side surface of the second lens satisfy the following: -11.90mm ≤ Lb×(R3 / R4) ≤ -6.39mm. By limiting Lb×(R3 / R4) within a reasonable range, the curvature of the second lens barrel and the second lens are designed in a coordinated manner, enhancing the axial rigidity of the second lens barrel, suppressing lens barrel deflection during zoom adjustment, and ensuring optical axis alignment accuracy. Simultaneously, it can reduce optical path escape, keeping light leakage less than 3%, while avoiding volume redundancy caused by an excessively long second lens barrel.
[0074] In this embodiment, the outer diameter Das of the first side surface of the first lens barrel and the maximum thickness La from the first side surface to the second side surface of the first lens barrel satisfy the following condition: 4.61 ≤ Das / La ≤ 11.22. By limiting Das / La to a reasonable range, it is possible to prevent the thickness of the first lens barrel along the optical axis from being too small, which would lead to insufficient internal space, affecting the zoom range or accuracy, and ensuring that the first lens barrel can withstand assembly stress and mechanical impacts during use. In addition, it provides the necessary space for the folded optical path design, ensuring that light propagates efficiently within the compact structure and avoiding stray light interference.
[0075] In this embodiment, the effective focal length f1 of the first lens, the effective focal length f2 of the second lens, and the maximum thickness Lb from the first side surface to the second side surface of the second lens barrel satisfy the following condition: 3.03 ≤ (f1-f2) / Lb ≤ 10.28. By limiting (f1-f2) / Lb within a reasonable range, a wide range of zoom (such as switching from telephoto to near-photo) can be achieved, while avoiding the risk of limited movement or collision of the second element group due to excessively small thickness of the second lens barrel along the optical axis. Simultaneously, it ensures a reasonable load on the drive mechanism, avoiding positioning errors or vibrations due to excessive inertia, reducing system power consumption, and extending battery life.
[0076] Second Implementation Method
[0077] like Figures 1 to 26 As shown, the visual system includes an optical element group and a lens barrel group. The optical element group includes a first element group and a second element group. Along the optical axis of the visual system, the first element group, from the first side to the second side, sequentially includes a first lens, a polarizer, a reflective polarizing element, and a quarter-wave plate. The first lens has positive optical power, its first side surface is convex, and its second side surface is flat. The second element group, from the first side to the second side, sequentially includes a second lens, a partially reflective element, and a display. The second lens has positive optical power, its first side surface is convex, and its second side surface is convex. The lens barrel group includes a first lens barrel and a second lens barrel. The first element group rests against the first... On the lens barrel, at least a portion of the second element group rests on the second lens barrel; wherein the second element group is movable along the optical axis to move closer to or further away from the first element group; the maximum thickness La from the first side surface to the second side surface of the first lens barrel, the maximum thickness Lb from the first side surface to the second side surface of the second lens barrel, and the change in effective focal length Δf of the visual system moving from +2D state to -5D state satisfy: 3.45≤(La+Lb) / Δf≤7.79; the radius of curvature R3 of the first side surface of the second lens and the outer diameter Dbs of the first side surface of the second lens barrel satisfy: 3.08≤R3 / Dbs≤3.58.
[0078] This application, through reasonable configuration of the visual system and control of (La+Lb) / Δf and R3 / Dbs within a reasonable range, supports the internal focusing mechanism of the second element group, enabling diopter adjustment from +2D to -5D. By moving the second element group to change the light refraction path, the focal length change is synchronized with the user's eye adjustment, thereby alleviating dizziness caused by a fixed focal length. Furthermore, it ensures that the total thickness of the first and second lens barrels is sufficiently large to provide space for multiple reflections of light, avoiding stray light interference and ghosting at the edges of the field of view due to insufficient lens barrel thickness. Simultaneously, it ensures a relatively compact structure for the visual system, conforming to the trend of thinner and lighter VR devices. In addition, it helps maintain the mechanical stability of the second element group, preventing component deformation due to frequent adjustments.
[0079] This embodiment may also include other parametric expressions from the first embodiment, which will not be elaborated here.
[0080] In this application, at least one of the first and second lenses has an aspherical mirror surface. An aspherical lens is characterized by a continuously changing curvature from its center to its periphery. Unlike a spherical lens, which has a constant curvature from its center to its periphery, an aspherical lens has superior curvature radius characteristics, offering advantages in improving distortion and astigmatism. By using an aspherical lens, aberrations occurring during imaging can be eliminated as much as possible, thereby improving image quality.
[0081] However, those skilled in the art will understand that the number of lenses constituting the visual system can be varied to obtain the various results and advantages described herein without departing from the technical solutions claimed in this application. For example, although two lenses are described as an example in the embodiments, the visual system is not limited to including two lenses. If necessary, the visual system may also include other numbers of lenses.
[0082] Figure 1 Parameters such as das and Dbm are labeled to clearly and intuitively explain their meaning. To better illustrate the structure of the visual system and specific surface types, these parameters will not be shown in the accompanying drawings when explaining specific examples later.
[0083] It should be noted that in the following embodiments, the visual system of the same embodiment has a first state and a second state. The radius of curvature, center thickness and higher order image coefficient of the first lens and the second lens are the same in these two states, but the spacing distance between the first element group and the second element group, the lens barrel and other parameters are different.
[0084] It should be noted that the movement of the second element group of the visual system closer to the first element group along the optical axis causes a change in refractive power. The refractive power of the visual system is +2D in the first state and -5D in the second state. Specifically, the first state indicates that the visual system is suitable for users with a hyperopia of 200 diopters, and the second state indicates that the visual system is suitable for users with a myopia of 500 diopters. The visual system also has other states besides the first and second states, and the refractive power of the visual system in these other states can be between +2D and -5D.
[0085] It should be noted that the first side refers to the side of the human eye, and the second side refers to the side of the display screen, with the image surface located on the display screen.
[0086] The following describes in further detail, with reference to the accompanying drawings, specific surface features and parameters of the visual system applicable to the above embodiments.
[0087] Example 1
[0088] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the structure of the visual system of Embodiment 1 of this application in the first state and the second state are described respectively.
[0089] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a first element group rests on a first lens barrel Pa, and at least a portion of a second element group rests on a second lens barrel Pb. The first element group, from the first side to the second side, sequentially includes a first lens E1, a polarizer LP, a reflective polarizing element RP, and a quarter-wave plate QWP. The second element group, from the first side to the second side, sequentially includes a second lens E2, a partially reflective element BS, and a display. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the first side end of the first lens barrel Pa extends towards the optical axis so that the first side surface of the first lens rests on the first lens barrel Pa. Therefore, the first lens E1, polarizer LP, reflective polarizing element RP, and quarter-wave plate QWP are assembled from the second side of the first lens barrel Pa. Simultaneously, the second side end of the second lens barrel Pb extends towards the optical axis so that the second side surface of the second lens rests on the second lens barrel Pb. Therefore, the second lens E2 and the partially reflective element BS are assembled from the first side of the second lens barrel Pb.
[0090] In this embodiment, the first lens has positive optical power, a first side surface of the first lens is convex, and a second side surface of the first lens is planar. The second lens also has positive optical power, a first side surface of the second lens is convex, and a second side surface of the second lens is also convex. The visual system further includes an aperture stop STO located between the first side and the first element group. The first side surface of the polarizer is at least partially attached to the second side surface of the first lens. The second side surface of the polarizer is attached to the first side surface of the reflective polarizing element. The second side surface of the reflective polarizing element is attached to the first side surface of the quarter-wave plate. The first side surface of the partially reflective element is at least partially attached to the second side surface of the second lens.
[0091] In this embodiment, light rays from the image plane IMG pass sequentially through the second lens E2 and the quarter-wave plate QWP before reaching the reflective polarizing element RP. After being reflected by the reflective polarizing element RP, the light rays pass sequentially through the quarter-wave plate QWP and the second lens E2 before reaching the partial reflective element BS on the second side of the second lens. After being reflected by the partial reflective element BS, the light rays pass through the second lens E2, the quarter-wave plate QWP, the reflective polarizing element RP, the polarizer LP, and the first lens E1 before exiting.
[0092] Table 1 shows the basic structural parameters of the visual system in Embodiment 1, where the units for radius of curvature, thickness / distance, and effective focal length are millimeters (mm). In Table 1, light rays from the image plane IMG propagate from surface number 16 to surface number 0. Refraction / reflection refers to the refraction or reflection of light rays by the surface represented by that surface number. Surfaces 16 to 0 are, in order, the image plane, the second side surface of the second lens, the first side surface of the second lens, the second side surface of the quarter-wave plate, the first side surface of the quarter-wave plate (the second side surface of the reflective polarizing element), the second side surface of the quarter-wave plate, the first side surface of the second lens, the second side surface of the second lens (the first side surface of the partially reflective element), the first side surface of the second lens, the second side surface of the quarter-wave plate, the first side surface of the quarter-wave plate (the second side surface of the reflective polarizing element), the first side surface of the reflective polarizing element (the second side surface of the polarizer), the first side surface of the polarizer, the second side surface of the first lens, the first side surface of the first lens, the aperture plane, and the virtual image plane.
