Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of microscope optical systems technology, and more particularly to an optical system, a surgical microscope, and an adjustment method. Background Technology
[0002] Surgical microscopes are the core equipment in modern microsurgery, and their working distance and zoom range are key indicators that determine the freedom and adaptability of surgical operations. A sufficiently long working distance provides surgeons with ample operating space and avoids collisions between surgical instruments and the microscope body; while a wide continuous zoom range enables seamless switching from macroscopic surgical field positioning to microscopic tissue structure observation, meeting the needs of different surgical stages.
[0003] Currently, mainstream technologies in commercial surgical microscopes, such as those from brands like Zeiss and Leica, generally limit their working distance to 200-600mm and their zoom range to 190-500mm. Existing technologies, constrained by the physical limitations of their optical structures, struggle to significantly expand both working distance and zoom range while maintaining high image quality. For example, Chinese utility model patent application number 202020174155.8 discloses a zoom objective system composed of three sets of cemented doublet lenses, but its explicitly stated continuous zoom range is only 200-450mm. A short proximal working distance (e.g., 200mm) easily interferes with the surgeon's instrument manipulation, limiting its application in confined spaces or surgeries requiring high degrees of freedom. Furthermore, the limited zoom range restricts the microscope's adaptability to different depth-of-field and magnification requirements.
[0004] Due to limitations in working distance and zoom range, during surgery, when the distance between the target area and the objective lens changes, the surgeon or assistant needs to frequently adjust the focus and working distance, either manually or electrically. This frequent intervention not only disrupts the flow of the surgery and reduces efficiency, but may also introduce potential risks due to improper or delayed adjustments.
[0005] Existing technologies, in pursuing large working distances or large zoom ratios, often struggle to simultaneously achieve high resolution, low aberrations, and stereoscopic imaging quality across the entire field of view. This can lead to issues such as blurred or distorted image edges, or reduced brightness, at extreme working distances or magnifications, affecting the doctor's accurate judgment.
[0006] Therefore, existing surgical microscopes face insurmountable technical obstacles in achieving a combination of ultra-large working distance, ultra-large zoom range, and high imaging quality.
[0007] It should be noted that the above description of the background technology is only for the purpose of providing a clear and complete explanation of the technical solutions of the present invention and facilitating understanding by those skilled in the art. It should not be assumed that the above technical solutions are known to those skilled in the art simply because they have been described in the background section of the present invention.

At the same time, in conjunction with the continuous zoom lens group, low aberration and high-resolution imaging can be achieved throughout the entire focal length range and the entire working distance range.

[0076] The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the various implementation manners shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it should be noted that these implementation manners are not limitations on the present invention, and any equivalent transformation or substitution in terms of function, method, or structure made by those of ordinary skill in the art based on these implementation manners shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0077] It should be noted that in the present invention, the "object side" refers to the side of the optical system 100 close to the object plane, that is, the side where light enters the optical system 100; the "image side" refers to the side of the optical system 100 close to the image plane, that is, the side where light exits the optical system 100.
[0078] Refer Figures 1 to 25As shown, this invention illustrates a specific embodiment of an optical system 100. The optical system 100 is installed in a surgical microscope (not shown) used for observing an object (e.g., living or ex vivo biological tissue). Specifically, it is configured at the observation end of the surgical microscope to capture optical information of the observed object during surgery and transmit this optical information to subsequent imaging components (e.g., an image processing and display system, not shown in this invention), thereby providing the surgeon with a clear surgical field image.
[0079] Specifically, participants Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the optical system 100 includes an objective lens group 10 and a continuous zoom lens group 20. The objective lens group 10 is used to receive light from the object surface and form parallel light rays for emission; the continuous zoom lens group 20 is disposed on the image side of the objective lens group 10 and is used to receive parallel light rays and perform zoom imaging. The objective lens group 10 includes a first lens 11, a second lens 12, a third lens 13, a fourth lens 14, and a fifth lens 15 arranged sequentially along the optical axis (i.e., optical axis 31) from the object side. The first lens 11 and the fifth lens 15 both have negative optical power, and the second lens 12, the third lens 13, and the fourth lens 14 all have positive optical power. The first lens 11 and the second lens 12 are cemented together to form a first cemented lens 101, the object-side surface S1 of the first cemented lens 101 being concave and the image-side surface S3 being convex. The third lens 13 is a biconvex lens, that is, both the object-side surface S4 and the image-side surface S5 of the third lens 13 are convex. The fourth lens 14 and the fifth lens 15 are cemented together to form a second cemented mirror 102. The object-side surface S6 of the second cemented mirror 102 is convex, and the image-side surface S8 is concave.
[0080] In this invention, the objective lens assembly 100 satisfies the following relationship:
[0081]
[0082] F refers to the focal length of objective lens group 10. 12 This refers to the focal length of the first cemented lens 101, f. 345 The focal length of the third lens 13 and the cemented lens 102 is defined as follows: M refers to the distance between the image-side surface S3 of the second lens 12 and the object-side surface S4 of the third lens 13; WD refers to the working distance of the optical system 100; and v2 refers to the image distance between the third lens 13 and the cemented lens 102. Thus, a relationship is established between the distance M between the image-side surface S3 of the second lens 12 and the object-side surface S4 of the third lens 13 (which can also be understood as the zoom interval), the focal length F of the objective lens group 10, and the working distance WD of the optical system 100, to achieve a large working distance variation.
[0083] Based on this, the present invention also discloses an adjustment method for adjusting the aforementioned optical system 100. Specifically, the adjustment method includes: adjusting the distance M between the image-side surface S3 of the second lens 12 and the object-side surface S4 of the third lens 13 to adjust the focal length F of the objective lens group 10, thereby using different working distance requirements of the optical system 100.
[0084] It should be noted that the optical system 100 disclosed in this invention adopts a design scheme of a large-range zoom and variable working distance objective lens group, which consists of five conventional glass lenses from the first lens 11 to the fifth lens 15. By adjusting the distance M between the image-side surface S3 of the second lens 12 and the object-side surface S4 of the third lens 13, a large working distance of 301-1000mm is achieved. That is, a zoom range of 415-1024.2205mm can be achieved to adapt to some special surgical scenarios. At the same time, in conjunction with the continuous zoom lens group 20, low aberration and high resolution imaging can be achieved throughout the entire focal length range and the entire working distance range. In summary, the focal length F of the objective lens group 10 in this invention satisfies 415mm≤F≤1024.2205mm, the distance M between the image-side surface S3 of the second lens 12 and the object-side surface S4 of the third lens 13 satisfies 0.5141mm≤M≤39.2874mm, and the working distance WD of the optical system 100 satisfies 301mm≤WD≤1000mm.
[0085] Furthermore, the image-side surface S2 of the first lens 11 is convex, and the object-side surface S2 of the second lens 12 is concave. The first lens 11 and its image-side surface S2, as well as the object-side surface S2 of the second lens 12, are bonded together to form a first bonding surface S2. The image-side surface S7 of the fourth lens 14 is concave, and the object-side surface S7 of the fifth lens 15 is convex. The image-side surface S7 of the fourth lens 14 and the object-side surface S7 of the fifth lens 15 are bonded together to form a second bonding surface S7.
[0086] In one embodiment, the Abbe number V1 of the first lens 11 and the Abbe number V2 of the second lens 12 satisfy 28 < |V1-V2| < 33; the Abbe number V3 of the third lens 13 satisfies 70 < V3; and the Abbe number V4 of the fourth lens 14 and the Abbe number V5 of the fifth lens 15 satisfy 28 < |V4-V5| < 29.
[0087] It should be noted that the first lens 11 and the second lens 12 employ a combination of low-dispersion and high-dispersion materials to correct spherical aberration and coma. A larger difference in Abbe number indicates a greater difference in the dispersive capabilities of the two materials. Chromatic aberration correction can be achieved with a smaller optical power (i.e., a "flatter" lens curvature), which helps to simultaneously control other monochromatic aberrations (such as spherical aberration and coma). The third lens 13 uses an ultra-low-dispersion material, i.e., 70 < V3, to further correct the second-order spectrum. The fourth lens 14 and the fifth lens 15 also employ a combination of low-dispersion and high-dispersion materials to compensate for the on-axis and transverse chromatic aberration generated by the first lens 11 and the second lens 12.
[0088] In one embodiment, the refractive index n1 of the first lens 11 satisfies 1.7 < n1 < 1.9; the refractive index n1 of the first lens 11 and the refractive index n2 of the second lens 12 satisfy 0.15 < |n1-n2| < 0.25; the refractive index n3 of the third lens 13 satisfies 1.5 < n3; the refractive index n4 of the fourth lens 14 satisfies 1.85 < n4; and the refractive index n4 of the fourth lens 14 and the refractive index n5 of the fifth lens 15 satisfy 0.28 < |n4-n5| < 0.3.
[0089] It should be noted that the first lens 11 is made of a high refractive index material, which can provide strong refractive power and control spherical aberration. The refractive index constraint of the second lens 12 is set to achieve the correction of monochromatic aberration. The refractive index constraint of the third lens 13 can achieve the correction of second-order spectral chromatic aberration. The combined refractive index constraint of the fourth lens 14 and the fifth lens 15 can achieve the correction of field curvature and astigmatism.
[0090] In one implementation, the reference Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the continuous zoom lens group 20 includes: a third cemented lens 201 with positive optical power, a fourth cemented lens 202 with negative optical power, an aperture stop 25, a fifth cemented lens 203 with negative optical power, and a sixth cemented lens 204 with positive optical power, arranged sequentially along the optical axis (i.e., optical axis 32) from the object side. The object-side surface S9 of the third cemented lens 201 is convex and the image-side surface S11 is concave; the object-side surface S12 of the fourth cemented lens 202 is concave and the image-side surface S14 is convex; the object-side surface S16 of the fifth cemented lens 203 is concave and the image-side surface S18 is convex; and the object-side surface S19 of the sixth cemented lens 204 is convex and the image-side surface S21 is concave.
[0091] Furthermore, participants Figure 2As shown, the third cemented lens 201 includes a sixth lens 21 with positive optical power and a seventh lens 22 with negative optical power, arranged sequentially along the optical axis (i.e., optical axis 32) from the object side. The object-side surface S9 of the sixth lens 21 is convex, and the image-side surface S10 is concave. The object-side surface S10 and the image-side surface S11 of the seventh lens 22 are both convex, and the image-side surface S10 of the sixth lens 21 and the object-side surface S10 of the seventh lens 22 are cemented together to form a third cemented surface S10. The fourth cemented lens 202 includes an eighth lens 23 with negative optical power and a ninth lens 24 with positive optical power, arranged sequentially along the optical axis (i.e., optical axis 32) from the object side. The object-side surface S12 of the eighth lens 23 is concave, and the image-side surface S13 is convex. Both the object-side surface S13 and the image-side surface S14 of the ninth lens 24 are concave. The image-side surface S13 of the eighth lens 23 and the object-side surface S13 of the ninth lens 24 are cemented together to form a fourth cemented surface S13. The fifth cemented lens 203 includes a tenth lens 26 with positive optical power and an eleventh lens 27 with negative optical power, arranged sequentially along the optical axis (i.e., optical axis 32) from the object side. Both the object-side surface S16 and the image-side surface S17 of the tenth lens 26 are concave. The object-side surface S17 of the eleventh lens 27 is convex, and the image-side surface S18 is concave. The image-side surface S17 of the tenth lens 26 and the object-side surface S17 of the eleventh lens 27 are cemented together to form a fifth cemented surface S17. The sixth cemented lens 204 includes a twelfth lens 28 and a thirteenth lens 29, both having positive optical power, arranged sequentially along the optical axis (i.e., optical axis 32) from the object side. The object-side surface S19 and the image-side surface S20 of the twelfth lens 28 are both convex, while the object-side surface S20 of the thirteenth lens 29 is concave and the image-side surface S21 is convex. The image-side surface S20 of the twelfth lens 28 and the object-side surface S20 of the thirteenth lens 29 are cemented together to form the sixth cemented surface S20.
[0092] Specific embodiments of the objective lens group 10 and the continuous zoom lens group 20 included in the optical system 100. In one embodiment, see... Figure 3 As shown, the optical system 100' includes only one continuous zoom lens group 20', whose optical axis 32' and the optical axis 31 of the objective lens group 10 are offset to ultimately form a two-dimensional planar image. In another embodiment, refer to Figure 4 As shown, the optical system 100” includes two continuous zoom lens groups 20 (i.e., continuous zoom lens group 20” and continuous zoom lens group 20”'), and the optical axes 32 of the two continuous zoom lens groups 20 (i.e., optical axis 32” and optical axis 32”') are symmetrically arranged from the optical axis 31 of the objective lens group 10.
[0093] In one embodiment, the diameter of the objective lens group 10 is larger than the diameter of any one lens in the continuous zoom lens group 20, so as to be applied to binocular vision imaging. The diameter of the objective lens group 10 is larger than the sum of the binocular lenses and the interpupillary distance, and the large aperture of the objective lens group 10 is beneficial to obtaining a large amount of incident light, with good light collection performance, and can improve the theoretical limit resolution.
[0094] The following describes the numerical examples of the optical system 100 of the present invention.

[0096] As shown Figure 5 The optical system 100a is sequentially arranged from the object side through the objective lens group 10a (including the first lens 11 with negative focal power, the second lens 12 with positive focal power, the third lens 13 with positive focal power, the fourth lens 14 with positive focal power, and the fifth lens 15 with negative focal power) and the continuous zoom lens group 20a (including the sixth lens 21 with positive focal power, the seventh lens 22 with negative focal power, the eighth lens 23 with negative focal power, the ninth lens 24 with positive focal power, the tenth lens 26 with positive focal power, the eleventh lens 27 with negative focal power, the twelfth lens 28 with positive focal power, and the thirteenth lens 29 with positive focal power).

[0101] The thickness column indicates the distance (in millimeters, mm) between the current face number and the next face number, specifically the distance between the vertices of the two faces (i.e., the intersection of the face and the principal optical axis).
[0102] The refractive index column indicates the refractive index of each lens, and it should be filled in at the corresponding surface number of the object-side surface of that lens.

[0135] Refer Figures 10 to 24As shown, in an ideal situation, the coincidence of the MTF curves in the meridian direction and the sagittal direction can achieve the best imaging effect and the lower the distortion rate. In actual tests, the closer the ordinates corresponding to the same abscissa are, the closer the MTF curves in the meridian direction and the sagittal direction are; at the same time, from the perspective of actual imaging, the closer the ordinates corresponding to the same abscissa in the test situation are to the ordinates corresponding to the same abscissa in the ideal situation, the better the imaging efficiency, the image tends to be real, and the distortion rate of the image is lower.

[0139] In summary, the optical system 100 disclosed in the present invention can meet the requirements of different working distances, and can reduce the problem of prolonging the surgical time caused by replacing the objective lens group 10; the objective lens group 10 realizes a working distance range of 301 - 1000 mm and a focal length change range of 415 - 1024.2205 mm to adapt to special microscopic imaging scenarios, such as when the horizontal height of the operating table cannot be adjusted, so this requirement can be achieved through the working distance of the surgical microscope; it maintains high numerical MTF, low aberration, and high-resolution imaging at each working distance, and has good optical performance.
