Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of optical machines, and particularly relates to a color optical machine. Background Technique
[0002] With the increasingly wide application of AR products in augmented reality, the corresponding technologies are also constantly developing. AR products are getting more and more attention and are expected to replace mobile phones as the next-generation mobile terminals. In recent years, augmented reality (AR) technology has been applied and developed rapidly in smart wearable devices. Its core component is the optical module. The field of view (FOV), thickness, and display effect of the optical module will directly determine the quality of smart wearable devices. In particular, achieving excellent image quality while having a large FOV and being thin and light has become the key to restricting the development of AR technology.
[0003] In current AR solutions, the mass-produced solutions that can present relatively good image quality are geometric solutions such as Birdbath, which have a thickness of 18 - 20 mm. Their thickness is difficult to meet the needs of people's daily wearing, and their shape is not very similar to glasses, and the light transmittance to the outside world is relatively low. Although the thin and light waveguide solution is becoming increasingly mature, it is still a great challenge to make AR glasses look like ordinary prescription glasses. The most important thing is to have a small, thin, and high-image-quality optical machine. Especially with the maturity of full-color screens and waveguide solutions, it is becoming more and more important to design a miniaturized color optical machine that matches them.

[0039] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
[0040] It should be noted that, unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the technical field of the present application. The terms used in the specification of the present application herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present application.
[0041] As Figures 1-5 shown, a color optical engine includes a display image source 1, a first imaging lens unit 2, a second imaging lens unit 3, a third imaging lens unit 4, and a fourth imaging lens unit 5 arranged in sequence along the optical axis. Each imaging lens unit includes at least one lens. The display image source 1 is used to emit color light, and the color optical engine satisfies the following conditions:
[0042] 5 ≤ f1 ≤ 15; 10 ≤ f2 ≤ 20; -10 ≤ f3 ≤ -2; 5 ≤ f4 ≤ 15; 5 ≤ f ≤ 15;
[0043] wherein, f1 is the focal length of the first imaging lens unit 2, f2 is the focal length of the second imaging lens unit 3, f3 is the focal length of the third imaging lens unit 4, f4 is the focal length of the fourth imaging lens unit 5, and f is the focal length of the color optical engine, with the unit of mm.
[0044] Among them, the display image source 1 can adopt a color display image source of Raycus, with a wavelength band of 435nm - 656nm. The first imaging lens unit 2, the second imaging lens unit 3, and the third imaging lens unit 4 are all a series of lens groups with aberration correction functions. The lenses in the lens group can be made of plastic or glass, and the number of lenses in the lens group is not limited. Aspherical lenses are preferred; the fourth imaging lens unit 5 is a lens group with aberration correction and light transmission functions. At the same time, on the outermost side of the entire optical engine, it needs to have scratch-resistant function. The material of the fourth imaging lens unit 5 can be either glass or plastic, and glass aspherical lenses are preferred.
[0045] The implementation principle of this optical engine is that the light emitted by the display image source 1 passes through the first imaging lens unit 2 and then is transmitted to the second imaging lens unit 3, and then is transmitted to the third imaging lens unit 4 via the second imaging lens unit 3. The outermost lens of the third imaging lens unit 4 is preferably a glass aspherical lens, which can increase the scratch-resistant ability of the outermost lens and improve the service life while ensuring the imaging effect. Finally, it is transmitted to the entrance pupil of the waveguide, as Figure 1 shown.
[0046] In one embodiment, the color optical engine also satisfies the following conditions:
[0047] -20 ≤ C11 ≤ -6; 5 ≤ C12 ≤ 20; 1 ≤ C21 ≤ 8; 5 ≤ C22 ≤ 20;
[0048] 2 ≤ C31 ≤ 15; 2 ≤ C32 ≤ 15; -25 ≤ C41 ≤ -6; 10 ≤ C42 ≤ 30;

By reasonably setting the thicknesses of each imaging lens unit and the air gaps, it helps to ensure the imaging quality while further achieving miniaturization and is convenient for processing.
[0054] In one embodiment, the first imaging lens unit 2 includes a first lens, and the light incident surface of the first lens is convex and the light exiting surface is convex; the second imaging lens unit 3 includes a second lens, and the light incident surface of the second lens is concave and the light exiting surface is convex; the third imaging lens unit 4 includes a third lens, and the light incident surface of the third lens is concave and the light exiting surface is convex; the fourth imaging lens unit 5 includes a fourth lens, and the light incident surface of the fourth lens is convex and the light exiting surface is convex. By reasonably designing the number of lenses and the surface types of each imaging lens unit, it helps to achieve miniaturization and light weight and improve the imaging quality. It is easy to understand that the specific number of lenses and surface types can also be adjusted according to actual requirements.
[0055] In one embodiment, the color light engine further satisfies the following conditions:
[0056] 1.5 ≤ n1 ≤ 1.8; 30 ≤ Vd1 ≤ 60; 1.5 ≤ n2 ≤ 1.8; 30 ≤ Vd2 ≤ 60;

[0060] -0.5 ≤ D5 ≤ 0.5;
[0061] Wherein, D5 is the air gap between the diaphragm 6 and the fourth imaging lens unit 5, with the unit of mm. The diaphragm 6 can adjust the light flux to adapt to different scenarios.
[0062] In one embodiment, the surface type of each lens is one of spherical surface, aspherical surface, freeform surface, Fresnel surface, and plane.
[0063] In one embodiment, the aspherical surface is an even-order aspherical surface type and satisfies the following formula:
[0064]
[0065] Wherein, z is the sag height, Y is the lens center height, k is the conic coefficient, C is the curvature, a i is the i-th aspherical coefficient, and N is a positive integer.
[0066] In one embodiment, antireflection films are provided on both the light-incident surface and the light-emitting surface of each lens, and an ink layer is also coated on the outer edge of each lens. The outermost lens of the fourth imaging lens unit 5 is a glass lens. Among them, antireflection films need to be evaporated on each lens surface, and the edges are blackened, which can effectively suppress stray light. By using a glass material for the outermost lens, it has an anti-scratch function, which helps to further improve the service life and ensure the imaging quality.

Moreover, through reasonable design of optical parameters (including focal length, thickness, air gap, radius of curvature, refractive index, Abbe number, etc.), while ensuring miniaturization and light weight, it has high image quality, a large FOV, and small chromatic aberration, meeting the usage requirements for matching with waveguides and the color requirements of the color light engine, making the entire AR glasses field approach the form of glasses while having a good color effect, greatly improving the comfort and experience of users wearing them.
