When the combination of technical solutions is mutually contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.

[0051] The present invention proposes a projection optical system, which aims to improve the problem of how to achieve high performance and high brightness at low cost while ensuring image clarity at high temperatures.

[0052] See also Figure 1-2, in an embodiment of the present invention, the projection optical system 100 includes a first lens 1, a second lens 2, a third lens 3, a fourth lens 4, a fifth lens 5, a sixth lens 6, a seventh lens 7, an eighth lens 8, and a light-emitting chip 12 that are sequentially arranged from the object side to the image side along the optical axis direction. The first lens 1 and the second lens 2 are configured as plastic aspherical lenses, and the third lens 3, the fourth lens 4, the fifth lens 5, the sixth lens 6, the seventh lens 7, and the eighth lens 8 are configured as glass spherical lenses. The focal length of the first lens 1 is f1, the focal length of the second lens 2 is f , the focal length of the third lens 3 is f3, the focal length of the fourth lens 4 is f4, the focal length of the fifth lens 5 is f5, the focal length of the sixth lens 6 is f6, the focal length of the seventh lens 7 is f7, and the focal length of the eighth lens 8 is f8. The projection optical system 100 satisfies the following conditions: -40 mm < f1 < -25 mm; and -40 mm < f2 < -25 mm; and 35 mm < f3 < 50 mm; and 20 mm < f4 < 35 mm; and -20 mm < f5 < -10 mm; and 10 mm < f6 < 20 mm; and -30 mm < f7 < -15 mm; and 25 mm < f8 < 40 mm.

[0053] In the technical solution of the present invention, light emitted by the light-emitting chip 12 is sequentially incident on the eighth lens 8, the seventh lens 7, the sixth lens 6, the fifth lens 5, the fourth lens 4, the third lens 3, the second lens 2, and the first lens 1, and then irradiated onto the projection surface for imaging. At this time, the first lens 1 and the second lens 2 are configured as plastic aspheric lenses. Aspheric lenses have better curvature radius characteristics and have the advantages of improving distortion aberration, astigmatism, and aberration. After using aspheric lenses, aberrations occurring during imaging can be eliminated as much as possible, improving edge image quality, thereby improving the imaging quality of the lens. Using plastic lenses can further reduce the manufacturing cost of the projection optical system 100. The third lens 3, the fourth lens 4, the fifth lens 5, the sixth lens 6, the seventh lens 7, and the eighth lens 8 are configured as glass spherical lenses. This allows the above lenses to have good resistance to thermal deformation, thereby reducing the impact of temperature on the projection optical system 100, and providing the projection optical system 100 with good athermal performance. In this way, by combining the materials and distributing the surface shapes of the multiple lenses of the projection optical system 100, and reasonably controlling the focal lengths of the first lens 1, the second lens 2, the third lens 3, the fourth lens 4, the fifth lens 5, the sixth lens 6, the seventh lens 7 and the eighth lens 8, the projection optical system 100 has high performance, high brightness and low cost, and can maintain high definition of the projection image during long-term use.

[0054] It can be understood that in the present invention, the first lens 1 and the second lens 2 are set as plastic lenses. In this way, the first lens 1 and the second lens 2 are set away from the light-emitting chip 12. When the light-emitting chip 12 emits light, only a small amount of heat can be transferred to the first lens 1 and the second lens 2, so as to reduce the influence of the temperature change of the first lens 1 and the second lens 2 on the optical back focus of the projection optical system 100.

[0055] Similarly, the first lens 1, the second lens 2, the third lens 3, the fourth lens 4, the fifth lens 5, the sixth lens 6, the seventh lens 7, and the eighth lens 8 are set as glass spherical lenses. In this way, the back focus change caused by the temperature change of the first lens 1 and the second lens 2 during the use of the projection optical system 100 can be compensated, thereby ensuring clear imaging of the projection optical system 100 at high temperatures.

[0056] It should also be noted that in a further embodiment of the present invention, both the first lens 1 and the second lens 2 are even-order aspheric lenses. This arrangement further corrects distortion caused by a large field of view, while effectively correcting aberrations such as spherical aberration and chromatic aberration.

[0057] It can also be understood that the present invention does not limit the specific values ​​of the focal lengths of the first lens 1, the second lens 2, the third lens 3, the fourth lens 4, the fifth lens 5, the sixth lens 6, the seventh lens 7, and the eighth lens 8.

[0058] For example, in one embodiment of the present invention, the focal length of the first lens 1 can be set to -39mm, -37mm, -35mm, -30mm, -26mm, etc.; the focal length of the second lens 2 can be set to -39mm, -38mm, -35mm, -31mm, -25mm, etc.; the focal length of the third lens 3 can be set to 35mm, 37mm, 38mm, 40mm, 47mm, etc.; the focal length of the fourth lens 4 can be set to 21mm, 24mm, 27mm, 31mm, 3 4mm, etc.; the focal length of the fifth lens 5 can be set to -19mm, -18mm, -15mm, -13mm, -12mm, etc.; the focal length of the sixth lens 6 can be set to 11mm, 12mm, 14mm, 15mm, 18mm, etc.; the focal length of the seventh lens 7 can be set to -28mm, -25mm, -21mm, -20mm, -17mm, etc.; the focal length of the eighth lens 8 can be set to 26mm, 28mm, 30mm, 33mm, 38mm, 19mm, etc.

[0059] In other embodiments of the present invention, the focal length of the first lens 1, the focal length of the second lens 2, the focal length of the third lens 3, the focal length of the fourth lens 4, the focal length of the fifth lens 5, the focal length of the sixth lens 6, the focal length of the seventh lens 7, and the focal length of the eighth lens 8 can also be set to any value within the corresponding range. The present invention does not impose any limitation on this. In actual setting, it can be selected according to needs.

[0060] Furthermore, in one embodiment of the present invention, the refractive index of the first lens 1 is n1, 1.50≤n1≤1.60; the refractive index of the second lens 2 is n2, 1.50≤n2≤1.60; the refractive index of the third lens 3 is n3, 1.80≤n3≤1.90; the refractive index of the fourth lens 4 is n4, 1.55≤n4≤1.65; the refractive index of the fifth lens 5 is n5, 1.85≤n5≤1.95; the refractive index of the sixth lens 6 is n6, 1.45≤n6≤1.60; the refractive index of the seventh lens 7 is n7, 1.85≤n5≤1.95; and the refractive index of the eighth lens 8 is n8, 1.85≤n8≤1.95.

[0061] Similarly, the present invention does not limit the specific values ​​of the refractive indices of the first lens 1, the second lens 2, the third lens 3, the fourth lens 4, the fifth lens 5, the sixth lens 6, the seventh lens 7, and the eighth lens 8. In one embodiment of the present invention, the refractive index of the first lens 1 can be set to 1.50, 1.51, 1.52, 1.55, 1.59, etc.; the refractive index of the second lens 2 can be set to 1.50, 1.51, 1.53, 1.55, 1.58, etc.; the refractive index of the third lens 3 can be set to 1.81, 1.83, 1.86, 1.88, etc. The refractive index of the fourth lens 4 can be set to 1.55, 1.57, 1.58, 1.63, 1.65, etc.; the refractive index of the fifth lens 5 can be set to 1.85, 1.88, 1.89, 1.92, 1.95, etc.; the refractive index of the sixth lens 6 can be set to 1.47, 1.49, 1.50, 1.53, 1.55, 1.58, etc.; the refractive index of the seventh lens 7 can be set to 1.85, 1.86, 1.89, 1.93, 1.95, etc.; the refractive index of the eighth lens 8 can be set to 1.87, 1.88, 1.89, 1.91, 1.94, etc.

[0062] In other embodiments of the present invention, the refractive index of the first lens 1, the refractive index of the second lens 2, the refractive index of the third lens 3, the refractive index of the fourth lens 4, the refractive index of the fifth lens 5, the refractive index of the sixth lens 6, the refractive index of the seventh lens 7, and the refractive index of the eighth lens 8 may also be set to any value within the corresponding range. The present invention does not impose any limitation on this, and in actual setting, it can be selected according to needs.

[0063] Furthermore, in one embodiment of the present invention, the dispersion coefficient of the first lens 1 is v1, 50.0≤v1≤60.0; the dispersion coefficient of the second lens 2 is v2, 50.0≤v2≤60.0; the dispersion coefficient of the third lens 3 is v3, 30.0≤v3≤40.0; the dispersion coefficient of the fourth lens 4 is v4, 60.0≤v4≤70.0; the dispersion coefficient of the fifth lens 5 is v5, 25.0≤v5≤35.0; the dispersion coefficient of the sixth lens 6 is v6, 75.0≤v6≤95.0; the dispersion coefficient of the seventh lens 7 is v7, 25.0≤v5≤35.0; and the dispersion coefficient of the eighth lens 8 is v8, 20.0≤v8≤30.0.

[0064] Of course, the present invention does not limit the specific values ​​of the chromatic aberration coefficients of the first lens 1 , the second lens 2 , the third lens 3 , the fourth lens 4 , the fifth lens 5 , the sixth lens 6 , the seventh lens 7 and the eighth lens 8 .

[0065] For example, in one embodiment of the present invention, the dispersion coefficient of the first lens 1 can be set to 50, 53, 55, 57, 58, etc.; the dispersion coefficient of the second lens 2 can be set to 51, 52, 55, 56, 58, 60, etc.; the dispersion coefficient of the third lens 3 can be set to 31, 33, 36, 38, 40, etc.; the dispersion coefficient of the fourth lens 4 can be set to 60, 63, 65, 66, 67, 70, etc.; the dispersion coefficient of the fifth lens 5 can be set to 26, 28, 29, 33, 34, etc.; the dispersion coefficient of the sixth lens 6 can be set to 77, 79, 80, 83, 87, 89, 90, 95, etc.; the dispersion coefficient of the seventh lens 7 can be set to 26, 29, 31, 34, 35, etc.; and the dispersion coefficient of the eighth lens 8 can be set to 20, 23, 24, 26, 29, 30, etc.

[0066] It is also understandable that, in other embodiments of the present invention, the dispersion coefficient of the first lens 1, the dispersion coefficient of the second lens 2, the dispersion coefficient of the third lens 3, the dispersion coefficient of the fourth lens 4, the dispersion coefficient of the fifth lens 5, the dispersion coefficient of the sixth lens 6, the dispersion coefficient of the seventh lens 7, and the dispersion coefficient of the eighth lens 8 can also be set to any value within the corresponding range. The present invention does not impose any limitation on this. In actual setting, it can be selected according to needs.

[0067] In the present invention, the optical power of the first lens 1 is negative, the object side surface of the first lens 1 is convex, and the image side surface is concave; the optical power of the second lens 2 is negative, the object side surface of the second lens 2 is concave, and the image side surface is concave; the optical power of the third lens 3 is positive, the object side surface of the third lens 3 is convex, and the image side surface is convex; the optical power of the fourth lens 4 is positive, the object side surface of the fourth lens 4 is convex, and the image side surface is convex; the optical power of the fifth lens 5 is negative, the object side surface of the fifth lens 5 is convex, and the image side surface is concave; the optical power of the sixth lens 6 is positive, the object side surface of the sixth lens 6 is convex, and the image side surface is convex; the optical power of the seventh lens 7 is negative, the object side surface of the seventh lens 7 is concave, and the image side surface is convex; the optical power of the eighth lens 8 is positive, and the object side surface of the eighth lens 8 is convex, and the image side surface is convex.

[0068] In this embodiment, by setting the optical power of the first lens 1 to a negative value, it is possible to facilitate the collection of light by the projection optical system 100, thereby effectively increasing the field of view of the projection optical system.

[0069] At the same time, by setting the eighth lens 8 as a lens with positive refractive power, the eighth lens 8 can better correct the chromatic aberration of the projection optical system 100 and compress the volume of the projection optical system 100.

[0070] It should also be noted that, in a further embodiment of the present invention, the fifth lens 5, the sixth lens 6, and the seventh lens 7 are connected by gluing. This arrangement can further reduce light energy loss, increase imaging clarity, and protect the scale surface, thereby optimizing the processing flow to meet design requirements. By rationally using glued parts, the optical components can improve the image quality of the projection optical system 100. Furthermore, by arranging the three lenses for gluing, chromatic aberration of the projection optical system 100 can be further corrected, thereby improving the color saturation of the projection image of the projection optical system 100.

[0071] In another embodiment of the present invention, the diameter of the first lens 1 is D, D≤40 mm. This configuration can ensure the aperture of the projection optical system 100 and thus meet the installation space requirements of the final product.

[0072] In another embodiment of the present invention, the light-emitting chip 12 forms a light-emitting surface on one end surface facing the eighth lens 8. The diameter of the light-emitting surface is IC, where IC is ≤ 17.2 mm. This configuration effectively focuses light while ensuring a high field of view, thereby improving the light utilization efficiency of the projection optical system 100.

[0073] In yet another embodiment of the present invention, the effective focal length of the projection optical system 100 is EFL, the distance between the object-side surface of the first lens 1 and the end surface of the light-emitting chip 12 facing the eighth lens 8 is TTL, and TTL / EFL ≤ 9.6. This configuration further reduces the size of the projection optical system 100 along the optical axis, making the projection optical system 100 compact, thereby effectively ensuring that light emitted by the light-emitting chip 12 is focused on the projection plane, and improving imaging clarity.

[0074] Furthermore, to enable the projection optical system 100 to adjust the amount of light passing through according to actual conditions, in one embodiment of the present invention, the projection optical system 100 further includes an aperture 9, which is disposed between the seventh lens 7 and the eighth lens 8. The provision of the aperture 9 can effectively control the light passing aperture, thereby reducing the interference of stray light and improving imaging quality.

[0075] In another embodiment of the present invention, the projection optical system 100 further includes a galvanometer mirror 10 and a protective glass 11, which are sequentially arranged along the optical axis from the object side to the image side. The galvanometer mirror 10 and the protective glass 11 are disposed between the eighth lens 8 and the light-emitting chip 12.

Furthermore, the provision of the protective glass 11 can provide effective protection for the light-emitting chip 12.

In this embodiment, the focal length f of the projection optical system 100 is 12.53 mm, the aperture value F is 1.95, and the light-emitting surface diameter IC is 17.2.

[0080] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the aspheric surface shape of the aspheric lens satisfies the following conditions:

[0081]

[0082] Among them, Z represents the distance of the surface from the vertex of the surface in the direction of the optical axis, c is the curvature of the vertex of the surface; y is the distance from the optical axis to the surface; k is the cone coefficient (when the k coefficient is less than -1, the surface curve is a hyperbola, when the k coefficient is equal to -1, it is a parabola, when the k coefficient is between -1 and 0, it is an ellipse, when the k coefficient is equal to 0, it is a circle, and when the k coefficient is greater than 0, it is an oblate) A, B, C, D, E, F, and G represent the fourth-order, sixth-order, eighth-order, tenth-order, twelfth-order, fourteenth-order, and sixteenth-order aspheric coefficients respectively. The above parameters can be used to set the shape and size of the aspheric surfaces of the object side and image side of the lens.

[0083] In this embodiment, the high-order coefficients of each aspherical mirror surface can be seen from the following Table 2:
