[0031] To better understand the present application, more detailed descriptions of various aspects of the present application will be made with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these detailed descriptions are only descriptions of the embodiments of the present application and do not limit the scope of the present application in any way. Throughout the specification, the same reference numerals refer to the same elements. The expression "and / or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
[0032] It should be noted that in this specification, the expressions such as first, second, and third are only used to distinguish one feature from another feature and do not represent any limitation on the features. Therefore, without departing from the teachings of the present invention, the first lens discussed below may also be referred to as the second lens or the third lens.
[0033] In the drawings, for the sake of clarity, the thickness, dimensions, and shape of the lenses have been slightly exaggerated.

The drawings are for illustrative purposes only and are not drawn to an exact scale.
[0034] In this text, the paraxial region refers to the region near the optical axis. If the lens surface is convex and the position of the convex surface is not defined, it means that the lens surface is convex at least in the paraxial region; if the lens surface is concave and the position of the concave surface is not defined, it means that the lens surface is concave at least in the paraxial region. The surface of each lens closest to the projection surface is called the projection side of the lens, and the surface of each lens closest to the image source surface is called the image source side of the lens.
[0035] It should also be understood that the terms "comprises", "comprising", "has", "including" and / or "including" when used in this specification denote the presence of the stated features, elements and / or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, elements, components and / or combinations thereof. Further, when an expression such as "at least one of..." appears after a list of listed features, it modifies the entire list of listed features rather than individual elements in the list. Further, when describing embodiments of the present application, the use of "may" means "one or more embodiments of the present application". Also, the term "exemplary" is intended to refer to an example or illustration.
[0036] Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. It should also be understood that terms (such as those defined in a common dictionary) should be interpreted as having a meaning consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art and will not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense unless expressly so defined herein.
[0037] It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and in conjunction with the embodiments.
[0038] The projection lens according to an embodiment of the present application includes a micro LED image source and a projection lens group. The light emitted by the image source passes through the projection lens group, exits from the exit pupil and enters the optical waveguide sheet, and finally the transmitted image and the real external environment enter the human eye at the same time, achieving the purpose of not delaying the observation of the external environment while seeing the information image.
[0039] Wherein, the projection lens group sequentially includes: a diaphragm, a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, and a fourth lens along the optical axis from the exit pupil side (projection surface) to the image source side (image source surface).
[0040] In some embodiments, there is one diaphragm; there is exactly one diaphragm, which may be located in front of the first lens.
[0041] In some embodiments, the first lens may have a positive optical power, with its projection side being convex and its image source side being concave.
[0042] In some embodiments, the second lens may have a positive optical power or a negative optical power, with its projection side being concave and its image source side being convex or concave. The object side (projection side) surface of the second lens is concave, which can effectively refract light rays to obtain a larger picture and meet the function of magnifying and imaging the picture of the AR projection lens.
[0043] In some embodiments, the third lens has a positive optical power, with its projection side being convex and its image source side being concave. The first lens and the third lens converge light rays, shortening the total length of the optical system and reducing the volume of the lens.
[0044] In some embodiments, the fourth lens has a negative optical power, with its projection side being concave and its image source side being convex. The imaging side (image source side) surface of the fourth lens is convex, which can effectively refract and converge light rays passing through the fourth lens.
[0045] In some embodiments, the total optical length TTL of the projection lens satisfies: 6.6 mm < TTL < 7 mm, the f-number FNO of the projection lens satisfies: 1.4 < FNO < 1.7, and the total optical length TTL of the projection lens, the air gap T34 on the optical axis between the third lens and the fourth lens, and the air gap T23 on the optical axis between the second lens and the third lens satisfy: 6 < TTL / (T23 - T34) < 15. Reasonably setting the air gap on the optical axis between the second lens and the third lens and the air gap on the optical axis between the third lens and the fourth lens is beneficial to reducing the sensitivity of the lens and improving the yield of lens production and assembly. The comprehensive control of the above conditional expressions enables the projection lens to meet the small volume design goal while enhancing the market competitiveness of the lens.
[0046] In some embodiments, the outer diameter D11 of the projection side of the first lens, the outer diameter D21 of the projection side of the second lens, the radius of curvature R22 of the image source side of the second lens, and the focal length f of the projection lens satisfy: -21 < (D11 + D21) * R22 / f < 4. Reasonably setting the outer diameter of the first lens of the projection lens and the radius of curvature of the image source side surface of the second lens achieves the goal of minimizing and lightening the overall dimensions of the lens.
[0047] In some embodiments, the following relationship is satisfied between the maximum projection field of view FOV of the projection lens and the total optical length TTL of the projection lens: FOV / TTL < 4.8. Since the projection lens is connected to the waveguide sheet, and currently available waveguide sheets on the market can only receive parallel light with a small angle, the FOV in the embodiments of this patent is all < 40°, ensuring that the projected image can smoothly enter the waveguide sheet for transmission. Satisfying the above relationship allows the system to have a shorter total length and a smaller volume while having a smaller FOV.
[0048] In some embodiments, the following relationship is satisfied between the combined focal length f12 of the first lens and the second lens and the combined focal length f34 of the third lens and the fourth lens: 4.3 < |f34 / f12| < 42. By making the optical system satisfy the above relationship, it is beneficial to reduce the design sensitivity of the optical system, reasonably configure the refractive power of each lens in the optical system, and improve the imaging quality of the optical system; at the same time, it is also beneficial to reduce the angle at which the light exits the optical system after being refracted by the lens group, thereby reducing the incident angle of the light entering the image-side photosensitive element of the optical system, improving the photosensitive performance of the photosensitive element, and enhancing the imaging quality of the optical system.
[0049] In some embodiments, the following relationship is satisfied among the focal length f of the projection lens, the entrance pupil diameter EPD of the projection lens, and the maximum projection field of view FOV of the projection lens: 4.5 < TAN(FOV / 2) / f / EPD < 7.5. Satisfying the above relationship is beneficial to the reasonable configuration of the ratio of the total optical length and the aperture number of the optical system, achieving the effect of a large aperture, and ensuring the light input and imaging quality of the optical system.
[0050] In some embodiments, the following relationship is satisfied among the radius of curvature R11 at the optical axis on the projection side of the first lens, the thickness CT1 of the first lens on the optical axis, and the focal length f of the projection lens: 20 < (R11 / CT1)*f < 25. By making the optical system satisfy the above relationship, the ratio of the radius of curvature at the optical axis of the object side of the first lens and the thickness of the first lens on the optical axis is reasonably configured, reducing the sensitivity of the first lens, and thus reducing the processing and manufacturing difficulty of the first lens.
[0051] In some embodiments, the following relationship is satisfied between the focal length f2 of the second lens and the focal length f of the projection lens: -10 < f2 / f < 29. By making the optical system satisfy the above relationship, it is beneficial for the refractive power of the second lens to be properly coordinated in the optical system (projection lens), the surface shape design of the second lens is more simple and flexible, reducing aberration, and simplifying the overall aberration correction and imaging quality balance of the optical system.
[0052] In some embodiments, the following condition is satisfied among the radius of curvature R41 at the optical axis on the projection side of the third lens, the radius of curvature R42 at the optical axis on the image source side of the third lens, and the thickness CT4 of the fourth lens on the optical axis: R41 / (R42 * CT4) ≤ 1.2. By making the optical system satisfy the above relationship, it is beneficial to control the shape of the third lens, reduce the processing difficulty of the fourth lens, comprehensively balance the spherical aberration, chromatic aberration, and field curvature of the optical system, and improve the imaging quality of the optical system.
[0053] In some embodiments, the following condition is satisfied between the overall optical length TTL of the projection lens and the focal length f of the projection lens: TTL / f < 1.2. Satisfying the above relationship enables the optical system to have the advantage of a short overall length. The volume of the projection lens can be made < 0.2 cc, and the weight is also correspondingly reduced. Applying it to augmented reality glasses can improve the comfort of the wearer and has broad application prospects.
[0054] In some embodiments, the following condition is satisfied between the focal length f1 of the first lens and the focal length f of the projection lens: f1 / f < 1.1. Reasonably configuring the focal length of the first lens is beneficial to compressing the overall system length and further reducing the volume.
[0055] It should be noted that the combination of the optical powers of the lenses in the embodiments can reduce aberrations such as astigmatism and field curvature in the optical system, improve the image quality, and at the same time make the overall system length smaller. In this application, the lens material is optical glass, which is more beneficial to the temperature drift stability of the fixed-focus lens. In this application, the image source is a Macro LED, which can emit light by itself and carry images, but is not limited thereto. The optical lens examples in the above embodiments of this application should not be construed as limitations, and this optical lens can also be applied to other fields as needed.

In each embodiment, the thickness, radius of curvature, and material selection of each lens in the projection lens are partially different.
