[0064] It should be noted that the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0065] The optical lens provided by the embodiments of the present application comprises seven lenses, which are sequentially arranged along the optical axis from the object side to the imaging surface as the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens, the fifth lens, the sixth lens, and the seventh lens.

[0066] In some embodiments, the first lens can have a negative focal power, the object side surface can be concave or convex, and the image side surface can be concave. The second lens can have a positive focal power, the object side surface can be convex, the third lens can have a negative focal power, the object side surface can be concave, and the image side surface can be concave. The fourth lens can have a positive focal power, the object side surface can be convex, and the image side surface can be convex. The fifth lens can have a positive focal power, the object side surface can be convex, and the image side surface can be concave. The sixth lens can have a negative focal power, the object side surface can be convex, and the image side surface can be concave. The seventh lens can have a positive focal power, the object side surface can be convex, and the image side surface can be concave.

[0067] In some embodiments, the optical lens can further include a diaphragm, which can be located between the third lens and the fourth lens. It can be understood that the diaphragm is used to limit the amount of light to change the brightness of the imaging. When the diaphragm is located between the third lens and the fourth lens, the correction of the diaphragm aberration is facilitated.

[0068] In some embodiments, the optical lens can further include a filter and a protective glass, which are sequentially arranged between the seventh lens and the imaging surface along the optical axis. The filter is used to filter out interference light to prevent the interference 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 impact resistance and scratch resistance of the optical lens, while having little effect on the imaging quality of the optical lens.

[0069] In some embodiments, the fifth lens and the sixth lens can be glued to form a glued 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.

[0070] In some embodiments, the object side surface curvature radius R5 of the third lens and the image side surface curvature radius R6 of the third lens satisfy: -1<(R5+R6) / (R5-R6)<-0.5. Satisfying the above range, the third lens is double-concave, has the function of diverging light rays, can disperse the central light rays and the edge light rays of each field of view, and can correct the aberration generated by the front end lens. More specifically, -0.93<(R5+R6) / (R5-R6)<-0.52.

[0071] In some embodiments, the sixth lens satisfies: 1 < (R11+R12) / (R11-R12) < 1.1. Satisfying the above range makes the light rays of the edge field have an upward trend, which is beneficial to the image point on the imaging surface being away from the optical axis, so as to realize the effect of matching a large chip, obtain a larger picture, effectively eliminate aberration, and improve the resolving power of the optical lens. More specifically, 1.04 < (R11+R12) / (R11-R12) < 1.07.

[0072] In some embodiments, the optical total length TTL of the optical lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 5.3 < TTL / f < 5.6. Satisfying the above range can effectively limit the length of the lens, which is beneficial to the miniaturization of the optical lens. More specifically, 5.32 < TTL / f < 5.58.

[0073] In some embodiments, the optical total length TTL of the optical lens and the real image height IH corresponding to the maximum field angle of the optical lens satisfy: 4.3 < TTL / IH < 4.9. Satisfying the above range ensures that the lens has a larger image surface under the condition of the same total length, which can match a larger size imaging chip to realize high-definition imaging, and better realize the balance between the small total length and the large image surface of the lens. More specifically, 4.38 < TTL / IH < 4.89.

[0074] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f1 of the first lens satisfy: -1.9 < f1 / f < -1.3. Satisfying the above range, by setting the first lens to have negative refractive power, it is beneficial to the first lens to accommodate a larger angle of light and collect as much light as possible into the rear optical system, thereby realizing a large field of view while increasing the light flux. More specifically, -1.87 < f1 / f < -1.34.

[0075] In some embodiments, the focal length f2 of the second lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 1.9 < f2 / f < 2.8. Satisfying the above range limits the second lens to have appropriate positive refractive power, which has the effect of converging light rays and reducing the height of peripheral light rays, which is beneficial to the reduction of the aperture of the rear lens. More specifically, 1.91 < f2 / f < 2.76.

[0076] In some embodiments, the focal length f4 of the fourth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 1.8 < f4 / f < 2.2. Satisfying the above range is beneficial to the convergence of light, which makes the divergent light smoothly enter the rear optical system and better realizes high-quality imaging of the lens; at the same time, it can effectively correct the distortion of the edge field, reduce the deformation degree of the edge of the captured picture, and improve the picture quality. More specifically, 1.87 < f4 / f < 2.16.

[0077] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f3 of the third lens satisfy: -2.8 < f3 / f < -2; the curvature radius R5 of the object side surface of the third lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -2.9 < R5 / f < -1.6; the curvature radius R6 of the image side surface of the third lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 8.4 < R6 / f < 41. Meeting the above ranges has the effect of diverging light rays, can disperse the central rays and marginal rays of each field of view, and enables the rear optical system to have a larger light receiving surface to receive the light rays emerging from the image side surface of the third lens, realizing a larger light input amount, which is beneficial to increasing the relative illumination. More specifically, -2.72 < f3 / f < -2; -2.87 < R5 / f < -1.66; 8.46 < R6 / f < 40.1.

[0078] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f5 of the fifth lens satisfy: 1.7 < f5 / f < 2; the curvature radius R9 of the object side surface of the fifth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 1 < R9 / f < 1.2; the curvature radius R10 of the image side surface of the fifth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 40 < R10 / f < 45. Meeting the above ranges defines that the fifth lens has an appropriate positive optical power and a suitable surface shape, which is beneficial to light convergence. And the cooperation of the fifth lens with positive optical power and the sixth lens with negative optical power can adjust the optical path difference between different fields of view, improve the resolution, is beneficial to making the light enter the rear lens smoothly, and further can reduce the field curvature and correct the off-axis aberration of the optical lens. More specifically, 1.78 < f5 / f < 1.97; 1.03 < R9 / f < 1.15; 40.11 < R10 / f < 44.39.

[0079] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f6 of the sixth lens satisfy: -1.7 < f6 / f < -1.4; the curvature radius R11 of the object side surface of the sixth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 40 < R11 / f < 45; the curvature radius R12 of the image side surface of the sixth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 0.9 < R12 / f < 1.2. Meeting the above ranges defines that the sixth lens has an appropriate negative optical power and a suitable surface shape, can diverge the light rays emerging from the fifth lens, make the light rays in the marginal field of view show an upward trend, is beneficial to the image points on the imaging surface moving away from the optical axis, is beneficial to 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, -1.66 < f6 / f < -1.43; 40.11 < R11 / f < 44.39; 0.96 < R12 / f < 1.12.

[0080] In some embodiments, the focal length f7 of the seventh lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 2 < f7 / f < 2.3; 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: 0.9 < R13 / f < 1.1; 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: 1.6 < R14 / f < 2.2. Satisfying the above ranges, it is defined that the seventh lens has a positive optical power, which is beneficial to the convergence of light rays, enables the light rays 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 the excessive main ray angle of the large field of view light rays when reaching the imaging surface, is beneficial to improving the illuminance of the edge field of view, and is beneficial to achieving a short overall optical length. More specifically, 2.07 < f7 / f < 2.24; 0.93 < R13 / f < 1.07; 1.65 < R14 / f < 2.17.

[0081] In some embodiments, the combined focal length f123 of the first lens, the second lens and the third lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -1.8 < f123 / f < -1.4; the combined focal length f4567 of 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 < f4567 / f < 1. Satisfying the above ranges, by reasonably setting the focal lengths of the lens groups before and after the aperture, it is beneficial to balance various aberrations of the system and improve the overall imaging quality. More specifically, -1.8 < f123 / f < -1.48; 0.89 < f4567 / f < 0.95.

[0082] In some embodiments, the focal length f2 of the second lens and the focal length f3 of the third lens satisfy: -1.2 < f2 / f3 < -0.8. Satisfying the above ranges, by reasonably setting the focal length relationship between the second and third lenses, it is beneficial to the smooth transition of light rays, and at the same time corrects various aberrations of the optical lens, improving the imaging quality of the optical lens. More specifically, -1.12 < f2 / f3 < -0.83.

[0083] In some embodiments, the focal length f2 of the second lens and the focal length f6 of the sixth lens satisfy: -1.9 < f2 / f6 < -1.1. Satisfying the above ranges, by reasonably setting the focal length relationship between the second and sixth lenses, it is beneficial to the smooth transition of light rays, and at the same time corrects various aberrations of the optical lens, improving the imaging quality of the optical lens. More specifically, -1.9 < f2 / f6 < -1.17.

[0084] In some embodiments, the focal length f3 of the third lens and the focal length f4 of the fourth lens satisfy: -1.5 < f3 / f4 < -0.9; the focal length f3 of the third lens and the focal length f6 of the sixth lens satisfy: 1.2 < f3 / f6 < 1.9. Satisfying the above ranges, by reasonably setting the focal length relationships of the third, fourth, and sixth lenses, it is beneficial for the light to transition smoothly, and at the same time correct various aberrations of the optical lens, improving the imaging quality of the optical lens. More specifically, -1.43 < f3 / f4 < -0.93; 1.22 < f3 / f6 < 1.87.

[0085] In some embodiments, the true image height IH corresponding to the maximum field angle of the optical lens and the entrance pupil diameter EPD of the optical lens satisfy: 1.7 < IH / EPD < 2.2. Satisfying the above range is beneficial for increasing the light passing amount, making the peripheral field and the central field brightness more uniform. More specifically, 1.75 < IH / EPD < 2.2.

[0086] In some embodiments, the true image height IH corresponding to the maximum field angle of the optical lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 1 < IH / f < 1.3. Satisfying the above range, controlling the image height and focal length of the optical lens within a reasonable range helps the optical lens to have the characteristic of a large image plane and improves the imaging quality. More specifically, 1.09 < IH / f < 1.22.

[0087] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the back focal length BFL of the optical lens satisfy: 0.4 < BFL / f < 0.6. Satisfying the above range limits the optical lens to have an appropriate back focus, facilitating the reasonable arrangement of the positions of each lens and reducing the processing and assembly difficulty. More specifically, 0.45 < BFL / f < 0.57.

[0088] 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: 0.58 < ∑CT / TTL < 0.79. Satisfying the above range, reasonably configuring the total optical length of the optical lens and the sum of the thicknesses of each lens helps to achieve the characteristic of high pixels and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens.

[0089] 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: 3.13 < ΣCT / f < 4.14. 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.

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.

[0092] 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 structure, the aspherical structure can effectively reduce the aberration of the optical system, thereby reducing the number of lenses and the size of the lenses, and better achieving the miniaturization of the lens. More specifically, the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens, the fifth lens, and the sixth lens of the present invention adopt spherical lenses, and the seventh lens adopts an aspherical lens.

[0093] In various embodiments of the present invention, when the lens adopts an aspherical lens, the shapes of the aspherical surfaces of the optical lens satisfy the following equation:

[0094]

[0095] Where z is the distance between the surface and the vertex of the surface in the direction of the optical axis, h is the distance from the optical axis to the surface, c is the curvature of the vertex of the surface, K is the quadratic surface coefficient, and B, C, D, E, and F are the fourth, sixth, eighth, tenth, and twelfth order surface coefficients, respectively.

[0096] The present invention will be further described below with reference to several embodiments. In each embodiment, the thickness, radius of curvature, and material selection of each lens in the optical lens are different; for specific differences, please refer to the parameter tables of each embodiment. The following embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to the following embodiments. Any changes, substitutions, combinations, or simplifications made without departing from the innovative points of the present invention should be considered equivalent substitutions and are included within the protection scope of the present invention.
