Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a two-piece vehicle lamp projection lens. Background Art
[0002] At present, with the advancement of technologies such as intelligent driving and new energy vehicles, cars have gradually evolved from people's means of transportation to more intelligent development. The rate of night driving has also gradually increased due to the accelerated pace of human life. As the "eyes" of night driving, headlights play a vital role in safe driving. The emergence of ADB headlights allows car lights to not only take into account lighting, but also play a good role in safety. Nowadays, pixelated car lights have become the direction of intelligent development of car lights.
[0003] Compared with traditional headlight optics, projection lenses have better image quality, can achieve high relative illumination and uniform brightness, and have high tolerance to large ambient temperature differences inside the lamp. Traditional solutions usually use a full glass structure, and due to material processing limitations, the glass is generally a spherical mirror. In order to optimize the aberration caused by lens imaging, the lens needs to use more glass lenses, which makes the entire lens larger and heavier, while the reserved space for headlights inside the car is limited, and it goes against the development trend of miniaturization and lightweighting. Summary of the invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide a two-piece headlight projection lens, which has a high light source utilization rate, good imaging effect, and a relatively compact structure, and is also conducive to the flattened appearance design of the automobile headlight shape.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution of the utility model is:
[0006] A two-piece vehicle light projection lens, comprising a first lens with positive optical power, a second lens with positive optical power and an LED light source, which are sequentially arranged from the image side to the object side along the optical axis, wherein the light emitted by the LED light source sequentially passes through the second lens and the first lens and then is emitted;
[0007] The image side surface of the first lens is an S1 surface, the object side surface of the first lens is an S2 surface, the image side surface of the second lens is an S3 surface, and the object side surface of the second lens is an S4 surface;
[0008] The Abbe numbers Vd of the first lens and the second lens both satisfy: Vd≥45;
[0009] The S1 surface and the S2 surface are both convex surfaces, the S3 surface is a convex surface, the S4 surface is a concave surface, and an aperture is provided on the S2 surface.
[0010] Furthermore, the refractive index Nd of the first lens and the second lens both satisfy: Nd≥1.4.
[0011] Furthermore, the first lens is made of plastic, and the second lens is made of glass.
[0012] Furthermore, the optical back focus of the vehicle light projection lens is greater than 2.5 mm.
[0013] Furthermore, the aperture coefficient F / # of the vehicle lamp projection lens is ≤0.7.
[0014] Furthermore, the light source incident angle θ of the vehicle lamp projection lens is greater than 45°.
[0015] Furthermore, the optical distortion of the vehicle lamp projection lens is less than 5%.
[0016] Furthermore, the effective focal length EFL of the headlight projection lens satisfies the following conditions:
[0017] 20mm<EFL<40mm.
[0018] Furthermore, the total lens length TTL of the headlight projection lens satisfies the following conditions:
[0019] 45mm<TTL<100mm.
[0020] Furthermore, the half field of view HFOV of the headlight projection lens satisfies the following conditions:
[0021] 15°<HFOV<20°.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0023] (1) The lens of the present invention uses an aspherical surface to correct aberrations, thereby improving imaging resolution and greatly improving the imaging quality of the optical structure.
[0024] (2) The utility model is designed with only two lenses, has a compact structure, relatively low manufacturing cost, and is easy to assemble and adjust.
[0025] (3) The aperture of the system of the utility model is arranged after the first lens, which is more conducive to the design of a small opening and a flat opening.
[0026] (4) The utility model has a high light source utilization rate, a large aperture, and an aperture coefficient <0.7.
