The present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0025] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meanings as commonly understood by ordinary technicians in the technical field to which this application belongs.

[0026] In the present invention, unless otherwise specified, the directional words used, such as "up, down, top, bottom", usually refer to the directions shown in the drawings, or to the components themselves in the vertical, perpendicular or gravity directions; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "inside and outside" refer to the inside and outside relative to the outline of each component itself, but the above-mentioned directional words are not used to limit the present invention.

[0027] In order to solve the problem that the optical lens in the prior art has difficulty in compressing the overall length, the utility model provides an optical lens.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, the optical lens includes a lens barrel 10 and a lens 20, the lens 20 is arranged in the lens barrel 10, the lens 20 has a bending structure 222, the bending structure 222 is located on the outer peripheral side of the lens 20, the bending structure 222 includes a first section 2221, a second section 2222 and a third section 2223 connected in sequence along a direction away from the optical axis 40, the adjacent two sections of the first section 2221, the second section 2222 and the third section 2223 are connected at an angle, and a groove is formed between the first section 2221 and the second section 2222, the groove is located on the object side of the bending structure 222, and the lens barrel 10 has a boss 11 that cooperates with the groove.

[0029] By arranging the periphery of the lens 20 with a bending structure 222, and planning the bending structure 222 to include a first section 2221, a second section 2222 and a third section 2223 that are connected at an angle in sequence along a direction away from the optical axis 40, and further arranging the first section 2221 and the second section 2222 to be connected at an angle to form a groove therebetween, so that the boss 11 of the lens barrel 10 can extend into the groove to form a limited fit, on the one hand, it is beneficial to increase the assembly strength of the lens 20 and the lens barrel 10, avoid the risk of the lens 20 shaking or misalignment during the use of the optical lens, ensure the assembly stability, and further ensure the reliability; on the other hand, the object side surface of the bending structure 222 has a groove that cooperates with the boss 11 of the lens barrel 10. In this way, when the position of the lens 20 on the optical axis 40 does not change, the matching position of the periphery of the lens 20 and the lens barrel 10 is adjusted to be closer to the object side, thereby facilitating the compression of the overall length of the optical lens.

[0030] Specifically, the lens 20 is composed of a central effective portion 21 and an edge structure portion 22. The central effective portion 21 is used for imaging light to pass through. The edge structure portion 22 is located on the outer peripheral side of the central effective portion 21 and is connected to the outer peripheral edge of the central effective portion 21. The edge structure is annular, and the annular edge structure is used to abut against the adjacent lens barrel 10 or lens 20 or spacer. The edge structure portion 22 is composed of an abutment structure 221 and a bending structure 222 in a direction away from the optical axis 40, and the first section 2221 is connected to the abutment structure 221. Specifically, the abutment structure 221 is connected to the central effective portion 21, and the first section 2221 of the bending structure 222 is connected to the side of the abutment structure 221 away from the optical axis 40, and the abutment structure 221 is perpendicular to the optical axis 40.

[0031] It should be noted that the end of the second section 2222 away from the first section 2221 extends toward the object side, so that a groove is formed between the first section 2221, the second section 2222 and the abutting structure 221. Figures 1 to 4In the figure, the left side is the object side of the optical lens, and the right side is the image side of the optical lens. The optical axis of the lens barrel 10 coincides with the optical axis of the lens 20, so the optical axis 40 mentioned above and below can be the optical axis of the lens barrel 10 or the optical axis of the lens 20.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the first section 2221 and the third section 2223 are both perpendicular to the optical axis 40 of the lens 20, and the second section 2222 is connected to the first section 2221 at an obtuse angle. By reasonably setting the angles of each section, it is helpful to ensure the reliability of the bending structure 222, and setting the second section 2222 to be connected to the first section 2221 at an obtuse angle is helpful to ensure the structural rationality of the groove and to increase the matching degree between the boss 11 and the groove.

[0033] In the specific embodiments of the present application, Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the length of the second section 2222 is greater than the length of the first section 2221, and the length of the second section 2222 is greater than the length of the third section 2223. This arrangement is conducive to ensuring the axial depth of the groove and the matching strength of the lens 20 and the lens barrel 10. Specifically, since the first section 2221 and the third section 2223 are both perpendicular to the optical axis 40, the lengths of the two are actually radial lengths; the length of the second section 2222 is its extended length inclined to the optical axis 40.

[0034] like Figure 4 As shown, the thickness I of the second section 2222 and the thickness C of the first section 2221 satisfy: 0<I / C<1.5. Such a setting is conducive to ensuring the rationality of the thickness of the first section 2221 and the second section 2222, while ensuring the structural stability of the two, and is conducive to increasing the structural strength of the bending structure 222. At the same time, it is ensured that the bending structure 222 will not be deformed when it cooperates with the boss 11 of the lens barrel 10, ensuring the assembly accuracy.

[0035] Specifically, the thickness I of the second section 2222 is greater than or equal to 0.2 mm and less than or equal to 2 mm. The thickness C of the first section 2221 is greater than or equal to 0.2 mm and less than or equal to 3 mm.

[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, the axial distance G between the image side surface of the third section 2223 and the image side surface of the first section 2221 and the thickness C of the first section 2221 satisfy: 1<G / C<5. This arrangement is conducive to ensuring the structural rationality and reliability of the bending structure 222, and is conducive to ensuring its stable cooperation with the lens barrel 10.

[0037] Specifically, an axial distance G between the image side surface of the third segment 2223 and the image side surface of the first segment 2221 is greater than or equal to 0.2 mm and less than or equal to 3 mm.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, the object side surface of the first section 2221 is arranged close to the image side of the optical lens relative to the object side surface of the abutting structure 221, so as to leave a fitting position for the boss 11, the axial thickness of the first section 2221 is less than the axial thickness of the abutting structure 221, the side surface of the boss 11 facing the optical axis 40 abuts against the outer peripheral surface of the abutting structure 221, and the axial length A of the boss 11 and the abutting structure 221 is greater than or equal to 0.1mm and less than or equal to 0.3mm. The boss 11 abuts against the abutting structure 221, and the interaction force between the two is in the radial direction. Such a setting further ensures the assembly stability of the lens 20 and the lens barrel 10, which is conducive to preventing the lens 20 from axial displacement.

[0039] Specifically, the axial distance B between the boss 11 and the first section 2221 is greater than 0mm and less than or equal to 0.03mm; the minimum distance D between the boss 11 and the second section 2222 is greater than 0mm and less than or equal to 0.03mm; the axial distance E between the object side of the third section 2223 and the lens barrel 10 is greater than 0mm and less than or equal to 0.05mm. In a specific embodiment of the present application, B=0.02mm, D=0.02mm, E=0.02mm. This arrangement makes the boss 11 structure and the first section 2221, the boss 11 structure and the second section 2222, and the object side of the third section 2223 and the lens barrel 10 are spaced apart, and appropriate gaps are reserved, which is conducive to good performance in subsequent use or reliability verification, and is conducive to avoiding the risk of deformation of the matching position between the lens 20 and the lens barrel 10.

[0040] Specifically, the optical lens further includes a glue structure 30 , which is used to achieve gluing between the lens 20 and the lens barrel 10 , and the glue spot is located between the edge area of ​​the image side of the lens 20 and the lens barrel 10 .

[0041] exist Figure 1 In a specific embodiment shown, the outer peripheral surface of the lens 20 is fitted with the lens barrel 10. Specifically, the side surface of the third section 2223 away from the second section 2222 is in contact with the lens barrel 10. A bonding area is formed between the outer peripheral area of ​​the image side of the lens 20 and the lens barrel 10. The glue structure 30 is arranged in the bonding area. This arrangement is conducive to reducing small-scale deformation, increasing the bonding range, and ensuring reliability.

[0042] exist Figures 2 to 4 In another specific embodiment shown, the outer peripheral surface of the lens 20 is spaced apart from the lens barrel 10 to form a bonding space, and there is a radial gap between the side surface of the third section 2223 away from the second section 2222 and the lens barrel 10, at least a portion of the glue structure 30 is filled in the bonding space, and another portion of the glue structure 30 is located between the outer peripheral area of ​​the image side surface of the lens 20 and the lens barrel 10. This arrangement is conducive to reducing small-scale deformation, increasing the bonding range, and ensuring reliability.

[0043] Specifically, when the outer circumference of the lens 20 is spaced from the lens barrel 10, the radial spacing F between the outer circumference of the lens 20 and the lens barrel 10 is greater than or equal to 0.05 mm and less than or equal to 0.2 mm. By properly restricting the radial spacing F, it is helpful to ensure the size of the bonding space and the bonding reliability of the lens 20 and the lens barrel 10.

[0044] In addition, the radial distance H between the image side surface of the first section 2221 and the image side surface of the second section 2222 and the inner wall surface of the lens barrel 10 is greater than or equal to 0.25 mm and less than or equal to 2 mm. This arrangement is conducive to ensuring the size of the groove of the bending structure 222 and ensuring the assembly strength of the bending structure 222 and the lens barrel 10.

[0045] In addition, in the present application, the length of the adhesive structure 30 on the optical axis 40 is 0.28 mm. The total axial length of the optical lens is 3.62 mm, which is reduced by more than 0.24 mm compared with the total length of the existing optical lens of the same optical system, thus shortening the overall length of the optical lens.
