Detailed Implementation

[0018] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] Example 1 Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the zoom lens at the wide-angle end provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the zoom lens at the telephoto end provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the zoom lens provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention includes a compensation lens group S1, an aperture stop STO, and a zoom lens group S2 arranged sequentially along the optical axis from the object plane to the image plane; both the compensation lens group S1 and the zoom lens group S2 can be moved along the optical axis; the optical power of the compensation lens group S1 is negative, and the compensation lens group S2 includes a first lens 101, a second lens 102, and a third lens 103; the optical power of the zoom lens group S2 is positive, and the zoom lens group includes a fourth lens 104, a fifth lens 105, a sixth lens 106, a seventh lens 107, an eighth lens 108, a ninth lens 109, a tenth lens 110, and an eleventh lens 111; the first lens 101, the second lens 102, the seventh lens 107, the ninth lens 109, and the eleventh lens 111 are all negative optical power lenses, and the third lens 103, the fourth lens 104, the fifth lens 105, the sixth lens 106, the eighth lens 108, and the tenth lens 110 are all positive optical power lenses.

[0020] Specifically, in this embodiment of the invention, the zoom lens includes a compensation lens group S1, an aperture stop STO, and a zoom lens group S2, which can be housed within a single lens barrel. Figure 1 and Figure 2 (Not shown in the image). The compensation lens group S1 and the zoom lens group S2 can reciprocate along the optical axis in the lens barrel. Through the movement of the compensation lens group S1 and the zoom lens group S2, the focal length of the zoom lens can be continuously changed from wide-angle to telephoto, ensuring that the zoom lens has high image quality at each focal point.

[0021] It is understandable that during the zoom process achieved by moving the compensation lens group S1 and the zoom lens group S2, the zoom lens is at its shortest focal length, i.e., at the wide-angle end, and at its longest focal length, i.e., at the telephoto end. At the wide-angle end and the telephoto end, the zoom lens has different focal lengths, as well as different lengths or shapes.

[0022] Furthermore, optical power is equal to the difference between the convergence of the light beam at the image plane and the convergence of the light beam at the object plane; it characterizes the zoom lens's ability to deflect light. The larger the absolute value of the optical power, the stronger its ability to bend light; the smaller the absolute value, the weaker its ability to bend light. When the optical power is positive, the refraction of light is converging; when the optical power is negative, the refraction of light is diverging. Optical power can be used to characterize a single refractive surface of a lens (i.e., one surface of the lens), a single lens, or a zoom lens (i.e., a lens group) formed by multiple lenses. In this embodiment of the invention, the zoom lens includes a negative optical power compensation lens group S1 and a positive optical power zoom lens group S2. The positive optical power zoom lens group S2 is mainly responsible for changing the equivalent focal length of the optical system and is the "power source" for zooming. The negative optical power compensation lens group S1, through precise linkage movement, cancels the image plane drift caused by the movement of the zoom lens group S2 in real time, and the compensation curve for image plane drift is smoother, with less image plane jump across the entire focal length. Thus, frequent large-scale focusing is not required during zooming, resulting in smoother continuous zooming and ensuring image plane stability across the entire focal length. Furthermore, the converging characteristics of the positive optical power zoom lens group S2 and the diverging characteristics of the negative optical power compensation lens group S1 work together to shorten the overall optical length of the zoom lens, resulting in a smaller volume at the same zoom ratio. At the same time, the optical power of the compensation lens group S1 is opposite to that of the zoom lens group S2, thus ensuring higher zoom sensitivity of the zoom lens. A smaller amount of movement can achieve a larger focal length change, making it easier to achieve high-magnification continuous zoom.

[0023] Furthermore, the compensation lens group S1 includes three lenses with optical power: a first lens 101, a second lens 102, and a third lens 103. The first lens 101 and the second lens 102 both have negative optical power, while the third lens 103 has positive optical power. This negative-negative-positive optical power arrangement of the three lenses in the compensation lens group S1 ensures, on the one hand, the negative optical power setting of the compensation lens group S1. On the other hand, the first lens 101 and the second lens 102, as the first lenses in the zoom lens to adjust the incident light, have a larger aperture before the light enters the aperture stop. This allows off-axis light to enter the third lens 103 at a smaller angle, increasing the aperture of the zoom lens and enabling clear imaging even in dim or dark conditions. Furthermore, both the first lens 101 and the second lens 102 have negative optical power. The two lenses can share the optical power, preventing all the negative optical power from being concentrated on a single lens. This ensures a smoother curvature for both lenses, simplifying their manufacturing process and allowing for more relaxed tolerances. The third lens 103 is a positive optical power lens. This configuration allows for timely correction of significant aberrations produced by the first lens 101 and the second lens 102, particularly noticeable in correcting edge aberrations in zoom lenses, thereby improving the imaging resolution of the optical system. In summary, the overall negative optical power compensation lens group S1, consisting of a first lens 101 with negative optical power, a second lens 102 with negative optical power, and a third lens 103 with positive optical power, can effectively compensate for image plane displacement during zooming. At the same time, it can achieve good correction of aberrations such as chromatic aberration, spherical aberration, and field curvature through reasonable distribution of positive and negative optical power. This reduces the optical power burden of individual lenses, improves the tolerance of processing and assembly, and is conducive to realizing a zoom optical system with high zoom ratio, miniaturization, and high imaging quality.

[0024] The zoom lens group S2 comprises eight lenses with optical power: the fourth lens 104, the fifth lens 105, the sixth lens 106, the seventh lens 107, the eighth lens 108, the ninth lens 109, the tenth lens 110, and the eleventh lens 111. Lenses 104, 105, 106, 108, and 110 are designed with positive optical power, while lenses 107, 109, and 111 are designed with negative optical power. The combination of five positive optical power lenses and three negative optical power lenses in the zoom lens group S2 ensures the positive optical power setting of the zoom lens group S2. Furthermore, the positive optical power design of the fourth lens 104 combined with the third lens 103 is beneficial for achieving the large aperture performance of the zoom lens. Furthermore, the arrangement of multiple positive power lenses in the zoom lens group S2 distributes the total positive power across multiple positive power lenses. This results in smaller individual lens powers and gentler curvatures, ensuring more relaxed tolerances in lens manufacturing and assembly, thereby guaranteeing high production yield and controllable costs. Moreover, the power configuration of the sixth lens 106 to the eleventh lens 111 in the zoom lens group S2 is positive-negative-positive-negative-positive-negative. This multi-level positive and negative power configuration significantly reduces axial and transverse chromatic aberration, which is beneficial for achieving high-resolution, large-aperture, and high zoom ratio optical systems. In summary, the S2 zoom lens group adopts positive optical power as a whole and is composed of multiple positive optical power lenses and multiple negative optical power lenses. While realizing the zoom function of the system, it can effectively correct various aberrations such as chromatic aberration, spherical aberration, field curvature, and distortion through the reasonable distribution and alternating arrangement of positive and negative optical power. It also reduces the optical sensitivity of individual lenses, improves the tolerance of processing and assembly, and is conducive to realizing a zoom optical system with high zoom ratio, large relative aperture, miniaturization, and high imaging quality.

[0025] Further reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the zoom lens also includes an aperture stop STO and a filter 112; the aperture stop STO is disposed in the optical path between the compensation lens group S1 and the zoom lens group S2; the filter 112 is disposed in the optical path between the zoom lens group S2 and the image plane.

[0026] Specifically, by setting the aperture stop STO, the propagation direction of the light beam can be adjusted, which is beneficial to improving image quality. Furthermore, in this zoom lens, the aperture stop STO can be located in the optical path between the compensation lens group S1 and the zoom lens group S2, that is, in the optical path between the third lens 103 and the fourth lens 104. The purpose is to control the higher aberrations of the lens at the front end of the lens, ensuring good image quality while improving image height and expanding the target area at the rear end of the lens. Further, the filter 112 is located in the optical path between the zoom lens group S2 and the image plane, that is, in the optical path between the eleventh lens 111 and the image plane. The filter 112 can filter out interference light, improving the imaging effect of the zoom lens. Further, the zoom lens provided in this embodiment of the invention may also include a protective glass and an imaging sensor. The protective glass can be located on the image side of the filter, and the imaging sensor can be located on the image side of the protective glass. The protective glass protects the optical system, and the imaging sensor acquires images, enabling the optical system to perform its normal imaging function.

[0027] In summary, the zoom lens provided by the embodiments of the present invention, by reasonably setting the optical power of the compensation lens group and the zoom lens group, and further limiting the number of lenses included in the compensation lens group and the optical power matching method of the lenses, and the number of lenses included in the zoom lens group and the optical power matching method of the lenses, effectively expands the imaging target area while achieving a compact structure, small size, and strictly controlling the total optical length within 51mm, and simultaneously achieves large aperture performance. Furthermore, it can effectively correct various aberrations such as chromatic aberration, spherical aberration, field curvature, and distortion, reduce the optical sensitivity of individual lenses, and improve the tolerance of processing and assembly tolerances, which is conducive to realizing a zoom optical system with high zoom ratio, large relative aperture, miniaturization, and high imaging quality.

[0028] Based on the above embodiments, the focal length of the first lens 101 is f1, the focal length of the second lens 102 is f2, the combined focal length of the first lens 101 and the second lens 102 is f12, the focal length of the eighth lens 108 is f8, the focal length of the ninth lens 109 is f9, the focal length of the tenth lens 110 is f10, the focal length of the compensation lens group is Z1, and the focal length of the zoom lens group is Z2; wherein, 1.16≤f1 / Z1≤1.32; 1.5≤f2 / Z1≤1.82; 0.58≤f12 / Z1≤0.62; 1.05≤f8 / Z2≤1.15; -1.25≤f9 / Z2≤-1.08; 0.8≤f10 / Z2≤1.15. The first lens 101 and the second lens 102 encompass the negative optical power of the compensating lens group S1 in the zoom lens, allowing off-axis light rays to enter the third lens 103 at a smaller angle. Furthermore, by rationally distributing the optical power of each lens in the zoom lens group S2, it is ensured that light propagates smoothly without excessive refraction on any surface, thus preventing the introduction of greater aberrations and guaranteeing good image quality of the zoom lens.

In other words, the tenth lens 110 is a lens with a biconvex structure.

[0041] The eleventh object-side surface is convex, and the eleventh image-side surface is concave. That is, the object-side surface of the eleventh lens 111 is convex towards the object surface near the optical axis, and the image-side surface is concave towards the image surface near the optical axis. In other words, the eleventh lens 111 is a lens with a convex-concave structure.

[0042] By designing the surface shape of each lens and combining the optical power of each lens, the imaging effect of the zoom lens and the overall size of the optical lens can be further adjusted.

[0043] Based on the above embodiment, the displacement of the zoom lens group S2 from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end is D1, and the total length of the zoom lens at the wide-angle end is TTL_W; where 0.11≤D1 / TTL_W≤0.115. By limiting the ratio of the movement distance of the zoom lens group S2 from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end to the total length at the wide-angle end, the physical size of the entire optical system can be minimized while ensuring that the zoom lens has a sufficient zoom range. This is one of the core technical means to achieve miniaturization design of zoom lenses.

[0044] Based on the above embodiments, the back focal length of the zoom lens at the telephoto end is BFL, and the total length of the zoom lens at the wide-angle end is TTL_W; where 0.18≤BFL / TTL_W≤0.21. While achieving miniaturization, the large back focal ratio provides ample space for the rear structure design of the zoom lens, which is beneficial for zoom lens assembly, improves production yield, and reduces costs.

[0045] Based on the above embodiments, the image plane diameter of the zoom lens is ID1, and the total length of the zoom lens at the wide-angle end is TTL_W; where ID1 / TTL_W≤0.18. By satisfying these characteristics, the zoom lens can be made small while still capturing a larger image, achieving the goal of a small size while adapting to a large-area chip.

[0046] Based on the above embodiment, the sixth lens 106 and the seventh lens 107 are cemented together.

[0047] Specifically, the cemented joint of the sixth lens 106 and the seventh lens 107 can be understood as the surface of the sixth lens 106 near the image plane being bonded to the surface of the seventh lens 107 near the object plane; that is, the image-side surface of the sixth lens 106 and the object-side surface of the seventh lens 107 are bonded together. By cementing the sixth lens 106 and the seventh lens 107, the air gap between them can be reduced, which helps to reduce the overall optical length of the lens. It also reduces tolerance sensitivity issues such as tilting / eccentricity during lens assembly, simplifies the assembly process in lens manufacturing, and improves equipment efficiency. Simultaneously, the cemented joint of the sixth lens 106 and the seventh lens 107 can also reduce light loss caused by reflections between the lenses, improve illumination, and significantly suppress ghosting and flare, especially in high-contrast environments such as backlighting, resulting in cleaner, higher-contrast images. Furthermore, cemented lenses can be used to minimize or eliminate chromatic aberration. Using cemented lenses in zoom lenses can improve image quality and reduce light energy reflection loss, thereby improving image quality and enhancing the sharpness of the lens image. Furthermore, the cementing arrangement between the sixth lens 106 and the seventh lens 107 can be achieved through a spacer or by adhesive bonding; this embodiment of the invention does not limit the specific bonding method.

[0048] Based on the above embodiment, the combined focal length of the sixth lens 106 and the seventh lens 107 is f67, and the focal length of the zoom lens group S2 is Z2, where -4≤F67 / Z2≤-1.6; the refractive index of the sixth lens 106 is ND6, and the Abbe number is VD6; the refractive index of the seventh lens 107 is ND7, and the Abbe number is VD7; where 1.52≤Nd6≤1.58; 1.75≤Nd7≤1.87; 17≤|v6-v7|≤60. Specific Abbe number difference and refractive index range constraints are applied to the cemented lens composed of the sixth lens 106 and the seventh lens 107, and the ratio between their combined focal length and the focal length of the zoom lens group S2 is limited. This aims to utilize the complementary chromatic aberration effect of positive and negative optical powers to effectively suppress chromatic aberration generated within the optical system and balance the residual chromatic aberration introduced by other lens groups, ultimately improving the overall image sharpness and color reproduction capability of the zoom lens.

[0049] Based on the above embodiments, the refractive index of the first lens 101 is ND1, the refractive index of the fourth lens 104 is ND4, and the refractive index of the fifth lens 105 is ND5; wherein, 1.55≤Nd1≤1.75; 1.45≤Nd4≤1.72; 1.52≤Nd5≤1.75.

[0050] Specifically, setting the refractive index of the first lens 101 in the range of 1.55-1.75 can effectively reduce the surface curvature of the first lens 101 while ensuring its negative optical power, thereby reducing the sensitivity to aberrations such as spherical aberration and coma and improving imaging stability. At the same time, it takes into account the availability of optical glass materials, processing performance and mass production cost, which is conducive to achieving miniaturization, high imaging quality and high yield of zoom lenses.

[0051] By placing the aperture stop STO between the third lens 103 and the fourth lens 104, and limiting the refractive index of the fourth lens 104, the generation of coma and other off-axis aberrations can be effectively suppressed. The combined effect of a reasonable aperture stop STO position and material selection reduces aberrations caused by changes in the incident angle when light passes through the aperture stop STO, thereby improving the imaging quality of the edge field of view.

[0052] Setting the refractive index of the fifth lens 105 in the range of 1.52-1.75 can effectively reduce the curvature of the lens surface, reduce the sensitivity to aberrations such as spherical aberration and coma, and achieve good chromatic aberration correction in conjunction with adjacent lenses, while ensuring its positive optical power.

[0053] Based on the above embodiments, the first lens 101, the fourth lens 104, the sixth lens 106 and the seventh lens 107 are all glass spherical lenses; the second lens 102, the third lens 103, the fifth lens 105, the eighth lens 108, the ninth lens 109, the tenth lens 110 and the eleventh lens 111 are all plastic aspherical lenses.

[0054] Specifically, spherical lenses are characterized by a constant curvature from the center to the periphery, ensuring a simple lens setup. Furthermore, due to the low coefficient of thermal expansion and good stability of glass lenses, the first lens 101, fourth lens 104, sixth lens 106, and seventh lens 107 can all be glass spherical lenses. The thermal properties of glass spherical lenses are more stable, ensuring good resolving power over a wide temperature range when handling higher optical powers. In addition, compared to plastic aspherical lenses, glass offers a wider range of material choices, with more freedom in selecting refractive index and Abbe number. This allows for better control over higher aberrations and chromatic aberrations, meeting the needs of use under complex conditions.

[0055] Aspherical lenses are characterized by a continuous change in curvature from the center to the periphery, unlike spherical lenses which have a constant curvature from the center to the periphery. Aspherical lenses possess superior curvature radius characteristics, offering advantages in improving distortion and astigmatism. Furthermore, due to the relatively low price of plastic, using plastic aspherical lenses helps reduce production costs and improve efficiency. Therefore, the second lens 102, third lens 103, fifth lens 105, eighth lens 108, ninth lens 109, tenth lens 110, and eleventh lens 111 are all plastic aspherical lenses. This eliminates spherical aberration, corrects coma, astigmatism, corrects off-axis aberration, corrects distortion, improves edge image quality, and maintains consistent high definition from the center to the edges of the image, while also reducing costs.

[0056] In summary, by combining different lens materials—using lower-cost, lighter plastic for some lenses and glass for critical areas—this approach not only significantly reduces the overall manufacturing cost and weight of the lens, but also helps maintain the lens's imaging stability in high and low temperature environments by utilizing the differences in the thermal expansion coefficients of different materials, thus mitigating resolution fluctuations caused by temperature changes.

[0057] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the invention, the aspherical lens of the zoom optical system satisfies the following formula: Where Z is the axial distance from the vertex of the surface at a position perpendicular to the optical axis at a height r along the optical axis; c represents the curvature at the vertex of the aspherical surface; a2, a3, a4, a5, a6, a7, and a8 are the fourth, sixth, eighth, tenth, twelfth, fourteenth, and sixteenth order higher-order aspherical coefficients corresponding to the aspherical surface. These can be combined to form higher-order terms for the corresponding aspherical surfaces.
