Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of security lenses, and particularly relates to a 3.7mm focal length glass-plastic hybrid lens and an electronic device. Background Technique

[0002] Ordinary security lenses are usually used in video surveillance systems, and their types and specifications are diverse to meet different monitoring environments and requirements. According to whether the focal length is variable, security lenses can be divided into fixed-focus lenses, manual zoom lenses, and motorized zoom lenses. Fixed-focus lenses are suitable for monitoring fixed locations, such as cultural relic exhibition stands or toll windows, because of their low cost. Zoom lenses are suitable for scenarios where the best focus point cannot be determined, such as narrow passages, providing greater flexibility. Motorized zoom lenses are usually used for monitoring large scenes and are often used in conjunction with pan-tilt heads. They have a large zoom range and can observe a large range and focus on details at the same time. Existing security lenses have at least one of the following disadvantages:

[0003] 1) The field of view angle is small, and the lens capture range is not large enough;

[0004] 2) The imaging target surface is small, the signal-to-noise ratio is high, and the photosensitive performance is poor;

[0005] 3) Too many glass lenses are used, making the overall cost of the lens too high. Content of the Utility Model

[0006] In view of this, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a 3.7mm focal length glass-plastic hybrid lens and an electronic device. This lens can solve at least one of the technical disadvantages mentioned in the background technique.

[0007] According to one aspect of the utility model, a 3.7mm focal length glass-plastic hybrid lens is provided, which includes a lens frame and a lens group disposed inside the lens frame; the lens group is, in order from the object side to the image side: the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens, the fifth lens, the sixth lens, the seventh lens, and the eighth lens;

[0050] Figure 1 、 Figure 2 It is a sectional view of a 3.7mm focal length glass-plastic hybrid lens (optical system) according to Example 1 and a sectional view when the lens group is installed in the lens frame. The 3.7mm focal length glass-plastic hybrid lens according to Example 1 is used in imaging devices such as digital cameras, digital still cameras, broadcast cameras, surveillance cameras, etc. and optical devices with interchangeable lenses. In each sectional view, the left side is the object side OBJ and the right side is the image side IMA, and the optical axis OA. In each sectional view, Gi represents the i-th lens, and Ci represents the i-th lens unit. IMA represents the image plane. When the 3.7mm focal length glass-plastic hybrid lens according to Example 1 is used in an imaging optical system of a digital camera or a digital still camera, a solid-state imaging element (photoelectric conversion element) such as a CMOS image sensor or a CCD image sensor is arranged on the imaging plane IMA.

[0051] The 3.7mm focal length glass-plastic hybrid lens according to each example includes, in order from the object side to the image side: a lens frame 1, and a lens group 2 disposed inside the lens frame; the lens group is, in order from the object side to the image side: the first lens G1, the second lens G2, the third lens G3, the fourth lens G4, the fifth lens G5, the sixth lens G6, the seventh lens G7, the eighth lens G8; wherein:

[0052] The first lens G1 has a negative diopter, with a convex object side and a concave image side;

[0053] The second lens G2 has a negative diopter, with a concave object side and a convex image side;

[0054] The third lens G3 has a positive diopter, with a concave object side and a convex image side;

[0055] The fourth lens G4 has a positive diopter, with a convex object side and a convex image side;

[0056] The fifth lens G5 has a negative diopter, with a convex object side and a concave image side;

[0057] The sixth lens G6 has a positive diopter, with a convex object side and a convex image side;

[0058] The seventh lens G7 has a negative diopter, with a concave object side and a concave image side;

[0059] The eighth lens G8 has a positive diopter, with a convex object side and a convex image side;

[0060] The sixth lens G6 and the seventh lens G7 are cemented into a first cemented lens group C1.

[0061] Among them, the first lens G1, the fourth lens G4, the sixth lens G6, and the seventh lens G7 are glass lenses; the second lens G2, the third lens G3, the fifth lens G5, and the eighth lens G8 are plastic lenses.

[0062] Among them, please refer to Figure 2 , the first lens G1 is fixed to the object-side end of the lens frame 1 through the retaining ring 11 structure. The image-side end interface of the lens frame 1 is M16, and the lens frame 1 is made of plastic material. The first lens G1 and the second lens G2 are separated by the first mylar sheet 12; the second lens G2 and the third lens G3 are separated by the second mylar sheet 13; the third lens G3 and the fourth lens G4 are separated by the first spacer 15; the fourth lens G4 and the fifth lens G5 are separated by the second spacer 16; the fifth lens G5 and the first cemented lens group C1 are sequentially separated by the third mylar sheet 14 and the third spacer 17; the first cemented lens group C1 and the eighth lens G8 are separated by the fourth spacer 18.

[0063] The first lens is fixed by centering and dispensing with a centering machine, which is beneficial to improving the imaging quality of the lens. In the present utility model, the retaining ring structure is used to improve the overall aesthetics of the lens, and the outer diameter of the lens can also be changed by replacing different retaining rings. The retaining ring structure is fixed by dispensing at the beveled ends of the tail and the beveled ends of the lens frame. The main function of the first mylar sheet is to intercept the invalid light that may pass outside the effective diameter of the 01 piece, and the main function of the second mylar sheet is to intercept the invalid light that may pass outside the effective diameter of the 02 piece. The inside of the first spacer is serrated to effectively intercept stray light, with sharp corners provided inside to limit the size of the aperture stop, and chamfers are provided on both sides to prevent interference with the lens. The inside of the second spacer is also serrated to effectively prevent the appearance of stray light. The main function of the third mylar sheet is to correct field curvature, which can be added or not according to the actual situation. One side of the third spacer is a right-angle step for avoiding the cemented lens, and the other side is beveled to avoid generating stray light. The same applies to the fourth spacer.

[0067] 3) FOV ≥ 162°;

[0068] In the above conditional expressions, TTL is the overall optical length of the lens; FOV is the field of view angle of the lens.

[0069] Conditional expression 1) defines the overall optical length of the lens. By appropriately setting the conditions, the volume of the lens is reduced, making it convenient for installation and use.
