[0066] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solutions of the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0067] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the description and claims of the present invention and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the numbers used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the present invention described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0068] Figure 1 This is a schematic structural diagram of a zoom lens at the wide-angle end provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the structure of a zoom lens at the telephoto end provided by an embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the zoom lens includes a first fixed lens group G1, a zoom lens group G2, a focus lens group G3 and a second fixed lens group G4 which are arranged in sequence along the optical axis from the object plane to the image plane; the first fixed lens group G1 and the second fixed lens group G4 are fixedly arranged, and the zoom lens group G2 and the focus lens group G3 are movable along the optical axis; the first fixed lens group G1 has positive focal power, the zoom lens group G2 has negative focal power, the focus lens group G3 has negative focal power, and the second fixed lens group G4 has positive focal power; the first fixed lens group G1 includes a first lens 101 and a second lens 102 which are arranged in sequence along the optical axis from the object plane to the image plane, the first lens 101 has negative focal power, and the second lens 102 has positive focal power; the zoom lens group G2 includes a first lens 101 and a second lens 102 which are arranged in sequence along the optical axis from the object plane to the image plane, the first lens 101 has negative focal power, and the second lens 102 has positive focal power. A third lens 103, a fourth lens 104 and a fifth lens 105 are arranged in sequence along the optical axis from the object plane to the image plane, the third lens 103 has negative focal power, the fourth lens 104 has negative focal power, and the fifth lens 105 has positive focal power; the focusing lens group G3 includes a sixth lens 106, a seventh lens 107, an eighth lens 108, a ninth lens 109 and a tenth lens 110, which are arranged in sequence along the optical axis from the object plane to the image plane, the sixth lens 106 has positive focal power, the seventh lens 107 has negative focal power, the eighth lens 108 has positive focal power, the ninth lens 109 has negative focal power, and the tenth lens 110 has positive focal power; the second fixed lens group G4 includes an eleventh lens 111, and the eleventh lens 111 has positive focal power.

[0069] For example, in the zoom lens provided in this embodiment, the first fixed lens group G1, the zoom lens group G2, the focus lens group G3 and the second fixed lens group G4 can be arranged in one lens barrel ( Figure 1 The first fixed lens group G1 and the second fixed lens group G4 are fixed in position within the lens barrel, while the zoom lens group G2 and the focus lens group G3 can reciprocate along the optical axis within the lens barrel. Through the combined movement of the zoom lens group G2 and the focus lens group G3, the focal length of the zoom lens can be continuously changed from wide-angle to telephoto, ensuring high image quality at all focal positions while also ensuring the miniaturization of the zoom lens.

[0070] It can be understood that in the process of zooming by moving the zoom lens group G2 and the focus lens group G3, the zoom lens is located at the wide-angle end when the focal length is shortest, and is located at the telephoto end when the focal length is longest. At the wide-angle end and the telephoto end, the zoom lens has different focal lengths and optical focal powers, and also has different lengths or shapes.

[0071] Furthermore, the optical power is equal to the difference between the convergence of the image-side beam and the convergence of the object-side beam, and it characterizes the ability of an optical system to deflect light. The larger the absolute value of the optical power, the stronger the ability to bend light, and the smaller the absolute value of the optical power, the weaker the ability to bend light. When the optical power is a positive number, the refraction of light is convergent; when the optical power is a negative number, the refraction of light is divergent. The optical power can be used to characterize a certain refractive surface of a lens (i.e., a surface of a lens), can be used to characterize a certain lens, and can also be used to characterize a system formed by multiple lenses (i.e., a lens group).

[0072] In this embodiment, the first fixed lens group G1 is set to have a positive optical focal length, the zoom lens group G2 is set to have a negative optical focal length, the focus lens group G3 is set to have a negative optical focal length, and the second fixed lens group G4 is set to have a positive optical focal length; the optical focal lengths of the first fixed lens group G1, the zoom lens group G2, the focus lens group G3 and the second fixed lens group G4 cooperate with each other, and can compensate for the aberrations caused by the zoom movement of the zoom lens group G2 and the focus lens group G3, thereby ensuring the clarity of the image under different focal length states.

[0073] Further, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first fixed lens group G1 includes a first lens 101 with negative optical power and a second lens 102 with positive optical power, which are arranged in sequence along the optical axis from the object plane to the image plane; the first lens 101 has a negative optical power, which can expand the beam of incident light, allowing more light to enter the subsequent lens group, thereby facilitating the realization of a larger aperture. The second lens 102 has a positive optical power, that is, the combination of a negative lens and a positive lens is beneficial for controlling the light path, allowing it to pass through the subsequent lens group more smoothly. At the same time, it also helps to offset the dispersion effects of each other and reduce chromatic aberration. It should be noted that the first fixed lens group G1 can reduce the weight and volume of the lens by using a smaller number of lenses. At the same time, it can also reduce the number of air-glass interfaces that the light passes through, thereby reducing reflection losses and improving overall light transmittance. The zoom lens group G2 includes a third lens 103 with negative optical power, a fourth lens 104 with negative optical power and a fifth lens 105 with positive optical power; the focusing lens group G3 includes a sixth lens 106 with positive optical power, a seventh lens 107 with negative optical power, an eighth lens 108 with positive optical power, a ninth lens 109 with negative optical power and a tenth lens 110 with positive optical power, and the second fixed lens group G4 includes an eleventh lens 111 with positive optical power.

[0074] The zoom lens provided by the present invention utilizes only 11 lenses, a relatively small number of which helps reduce the lens length to less than 53mm. By properly combining the focal lengths of these 11 lenses, aberrations can be effectively corrected, resulting in an ultra-wide-angle, large aperture (F1.49 to F3.01) and infrared confocal zoom lens with full focal length. This lens is compatible with sensors as large as 1 / 1.4" (1 / 1.4"), thus meeting a wide range of security surveillance needs.

[0075] In summary, the embodiments of the present invention provide a four-element zoom lens, comprising a first fixed lens group G1, a zoom lens group G2, a focus lens group G3, and a second fixed lens group G4, arranged in sequence along the optical axis from the object plane to the image plane. Specifically, 11 lenses are used, resulting in a relatively small number of lenses, thereby helping to reduce the length of the lens. By properly matching the first fixed lens group G1, the zoom lens group G2, the focus lens group G3, and the second fixed lens group G4, as well as the optical power of each lens therein, aberrations can be effectively corrected, ensuring image clarity at different focal lengths. At the same time, the zoom lens has the advantages of a small size, a large aperture, and a large aperture, meeting a wider range of usage requirements.

[0076] As an implementable method, continue to refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the first fixed lens group G1, the object-side surface of the first lens 101 is convex, and the image-side surface is concave; the object-side surface of the second lens 102 is convex. In the zoom lens group, the image-side surface of the third lens 103 is concave; the object-side surface and the image-side surface of the fourth lens 104 are concave; and the object-side surface and the image-side surface of the fifth lens 105 are convex.

[0077] In the focusing lens group G3, the object-side surface of the sixth lens 106 is convex, and the image-side surface is concave; the object-side surface of the seventh lens 107 is convex, and the image-side surface is concave; the object-side surface of the eighth lens 108 is convex, and the image-side surface is convex; the object-side surface of the ninth lens 109 is concave, and the image-side surface is concave; and the object-side surface of the tenth lens 110 is convex, and the image-side surface is convex. In the second fixed lens group G4, the object-side surface of the eleventh lens 111 is concave, and the image-side surface is convex. The surface shape of a lens affects the direction of light propagation and determines how light bends when passing through the lens, which in turn affects the maximum aperture and light throughput of the lens, as well as the quality and characteristics of the imaging.

[0078] In this embodiment, the imaging effect of the zoom lens can be further adjusted through the surface design of each lens and the optical power of each lens.

[0079] As an implementation method, the focal length of the first fixed lens group G1 is F1, the focal length of the zoom lens group G2 is F2, the focal length of the focus lens group G3 is F3, and the focal length of the second fixed lens group G4 is F4. The focal length of the zoom lens at the wide-angle end is FW. Among them, 12.00 ≤ F1 / FW ≤ 18.50; -23.50 ≤ F2 / FW ≤ -19.00; -17.50 ≤ F3 / FW ≤ -7.00; and 2.00 ≤ F4 / FW ≤ 24.00. This lens combination achieves a reasonable combination of optical power, allowing light to pass through the lens more smoothly, and largely correcting the impact of higher-order lens aberrations on image quality.

[0080] As one possible implementation, the maximum movable distance of the zoom lens group G2 is S2, and the maximum movable distance of the focus lens group G3 is S3; where 0.85 ≤ S2 / S3 ≤ 0.90. By controlling the travel ratio of the zoom lens group G2 and the focus lens group G3 during movement, efficient utilization of the movable areas of the zoom lens group G2 and the focus lens group G3 is achieved, minimizing the lens size to the greatest extent possible.

[0081] In one embodiment, at least one plastic aspheric lens is included in the zoom lens group G2 and the focus lens group G3; the eleventh lens 111 is also a plastic aspheric lens. The fourth and fifth lenses 104 and 105 in the zoom lens group G2 are both plastic aspheric lenses, and the third lens 103 is a glass spherical lens. The tenth lens 110 in the focus lens group G3 is also a plastic aspheric lens, and the sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth lenses 106 and 107 are all glass spherical lenses. The first and second lenses 101 and 102 in the first fixed lens group G1 are both glass spherical lenses; and the eleventh lens 111 in the second fixed lens group G4 is also a glass spherical lens. The cost of plastic lenses is much lower than that of glass lenses, which can reduce the cost of the zoom lens. Furthermore, the two materials, glass and plastic, can complement each other, balancing high and low temperatures and reducing the overall lens length. This ensures that the zoom lens has stable high and low temperature performance, improving its environmental adaptability.

[0082] In one embodiment, the fourth lens 104 and the fifth lens 105 form a first cemented lens group; and / or the seventh lens 107, the eighth lens 108, and the ninth lens 109 form a second cemented lens group; the focal length of the first cemented lens group in the zoom lens group G2 is F45, the focal length of the second cemented lens group in the focus lens group G3 is F789, and the focal length of the zoom lens at the wide-angle end is FW; wherein, -20.50≤F45 / FW≤-19.00; and -17.50≤F789 / FW≤-7.00. By forming the first cemented lens group with the fourth lens 104 and the fifth lens 105, and forming the second cemented lens group with the seventh lens 107, the eighth lens 108, and the ninth lens 109, the air gap between the fourth lens 104 and the fifth lens 105, and the air gaps between the seventh lens 107, the eighth lens 108, and the ninth lens 109 can be effectively reduced, thereby further reducing the overall length of the lens. The use of cemented lenses effectively corrects lens aberrations. Using cemented lenses in zoom lens group G2 and focus lens group G3 ensures balanced aberrations during zooming, improving image quality. Furthermore, the plastic cemented lens group simultaneously expands the lens's degrees of freedom, enabling the cementation of the two aspheric surfaces of fourth lens element 104 and fifth lens element 105, further controlling high-order aberrations. The energy absorption of the cemented layer also provides improved impact resistance, meeting the demands of use in complex environments. Compared to the doublet composed of fourth lens element 104 and fifth lens element 105, the triplet composed of seventh lens element 107, eighth lens element 108, and ninth lens element 109 offers superior correction for high-order aberrations, improving image quality.

[0083] As one possible embodiment, the zoom lens further includes an aperture STO, which is located between the zoom lens group G2 and the focus lens group G3. The addition of the aperture STO can adjust the propagation direction of the light beam, thereby improving imaging quality. The aperture STO can be located in the optical path between the fifth lens 105 and the sixth lens 106, but the specific location of the aperture STO is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.

[0084] As an embodiment, the refractive index of the first lens 101 is Nd1 and the Abbe number is Vd1; the refractive index of the fourth lens 104 is Nd4 and the Abbe number is Vd4; the refractive index of the fifth lens 105 is Nd5 and the Abbe number is Vd5; the refractive index of the eighth lens 108 is Nd8 and the Abbe number is Vd8; the refractive index of the eleventh lens 111 is Nd11 and the Abbe number is Vd11, wherein: 1.98≤Nd1 ≤2.06; 16.00≤Vd1≤27.50; 1.54≤Nd4≤1.56; 53.50≤Vd4≤56.00; 1.70≤Nd5≤1.72, 19.00≤Vd5≤51.00; 1.43≤Nd8≤1.51; 80.00≤Vd8≤96.00; 1.54≤Nd11≤1.56; 53.50≤Vd11≤56.00.

[0085] The refractive index is the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in the medium. It primarily describes a material's ability to refract light, and different materials have different refractive indices. The Abbe number is an index used to indicate the dispersion capacity of a transparent medium. The greater the dispersion, the smaller the Abbe number; conversely, the less dispersion, the larger the Abbe number. Therefore, by matching the refractive index and Abbe number of each lens in a zoom lens, it is possible to achieve a compact zoom lens design while also facilitating higher pixel resolution and a wider aperture.

[0086] In a zoom lens, using a high-refractive-index material for the first lens element 101 can effectively control the light at the wide-angle edge, avoiding severe coma and distortion. Furthermore, the curvature of the first lens element 101 can be controlled to reduce Fresnel reflection, improve the relative illumination of the lens, and avoid issues such as vignetting. Furthermore, using a high-refractive-index material for the first lens element 101 can effectively reduce the size of the lens group, achieving miniaturization of the lens group.

[0087] In a zoom lens, the zoom lens group G2 before the aperture STO plays a dominant role in adjusting the lens magnification. Using the aforementioned refractive index materials in combination with the lens's focal power can not only correct aberrations but also control the lens's high and low temperature conditions. Simultaneously using the aforementioned materials to form a cemented lens group for the fourth and fifth lenses 104 and 105 not only ensures balanced aberrations but also offers advantages in group volume and size. Furthermore, it can increase the lens's F-number and improve the lens's imaging illumination. The eighth lens 108 is the middle lens in the triplet. This lens, made of a high Abbe number material, acts as a "dispersion buffer layer" for the cemented lens, interrupting the continuous stacking effect of the high-dispersion materials on both sides and forming a dispersion-anti-dispersion-dispersion compensation chain to ensure lens imaging quality. Using the aforementioned refractive index materials in combination with the lens shape for the eleventh lens 111 in the second fixed lens group G4 can better control the exit angle of the zoom lens' light, thereby controlling the lens's imaging quality and target surface size.

[0088] As an implementation method, the focal length of the zoom lens at the wide-angle end is FW, and the entrance pupil diameter of the zoom lens at the wide-angle end is EPDW; wherein 1.43≤FW / EPDW≤1.50.

[0089] As an implementation method, the maximum lens diameter in the first fixed lens group G1 is ΦG1, and the total optical length of the zoom lens at the wide-angle end is TTL; wherein 10.62≤ΦG1 / TTL≤12.60.

[0090] The entrance pupil diameter EPDW of the zoom lens at the wide-angle end can be understood as the diameter of the image formed by the iris STO relative to the front lens group of the zoom lens at the wide-angle end. The iris STO of the zoom lens is fixed between the zoom lens group G2 and the focus lens group G3, which can symmetrize the aberration distribution, correct the field curvature while controlling the lens distortion, and also has a certain inhibitory effect on the lens coma; in addition, the fixed position iris STO can ensure that the incident angle of the light remains relatively stable during the zooming process, avoids sudden changes in the aberration type (such as coma at the wide-angle end becomes spherical aberration at the telephoto end), and has better control over the imaging quality. By controlling the ratio of the focal length of the zoom lens at the wide-angle end to the diameter of the image formed by the iris STO relative to the front lens group, and coordinating the ratio of the maximum lens diameter in the first fixed lens group G1 of the zoom lens to the total optical length at the wide-angle end, the amount of light entering the zoom lens can be guaranteed, and the technical purpose of a large aperture can be achieved.

[0091] As an embodiment, the zoom lens further includes a flat glass plate CG, which is located between the image-side surface and the image plane of the eleventh lens element 111. The flat glass plate CG protects the photosensitive chip in the imaging sensor, which is used to convert the optical signals collected by the zoom lens into electrical signals, thereby ensuring the imaging effect of the zoom lens.

[0092] An embodiment of the present invention further provides a lens module, the lens module comprising a photosensitive chip and the zoom lens according to any one of the above embodiments, wherein the photosensitive chip is arranged on the image plane side of the zoom lens;

[0093] The diagonal length of the photosensitive chip is H, the tangent value of the incident angle of the zoom lens at the wide-angle end is TAN(θW), and the tangent value of the incident angle of the zoom lens at the telephoto end is TAN(θT); wherein, 2.95≤H / TAN(θW)≤3.50; 18.00≤H / TAN(θT)≤22.00. By controlling the diagonal length of the photosensitive chip used in the zoom lens and the tangent value of its incident angle at the wide-angle end / telephoto end, the focal length of the zoom lens can be effectively controlled to meet usage requirements.
