Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of optical imaging, and more particularly to a relay mirror for a large-angle, small-distortion optical system and its applications. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, testing of wide-angle camera modules typically uses wide-angle repeater lenses to simulate near and far views. According to optical principles, lens distortion is related to the field of view; the larger the field of view, the greater the distortion. Therefore, conventional wide-angle repeater lenses generally exhibit significant distortion. When customers use conventional wide-angle repeater lenses to test the lens module under test, the distortion introduced by the repeater lens adds superimposed distortion to the original lens on the camera module, causing a change in the calibrated test length on the original camera lens. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a wide-angle, low-distortion repeater lens to solve this problem. Utility Model Content

[0050] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this application provides a large-angle, small-distortion optical system, which includes a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, a fifth lens, and a sixth lens in sequence along the optical axis from the object plane to the image plane;

[0057] The optical system of the embodiment of the present invention is mainly composed of six lenses. Through the reasonable combination of the lens shapes and optical powers, the purpose of achieving a large field angle and correcting distortion is achieved, and the measurement length error caused by the large distortion of the large-angle relay lens to the large-angle measured lens module is solved. The exit pupil diameter of the relay lens equipped with this optical system is increased, which will greatly reduce the accuracy requirements for the centering of the measured lens module and the relay lens by the test equipment.
[0058] Furthermore, as a preferred implementation manner rather than a limitation of the present invention, the lenses of this optical system satisfy the following conditions: 752mm < f1 < 898mm; -221mm < f2 < -147mm; -173mm < f3 < -151mm; 148mm < f4 < 183mm; -481mm < f5 < -298mm; 109mm < f6 < 131mm; where f1 is the effective focal length of the first lens, f2 is the effective focal length of the second lens, f3 is the effective focal length of the third lens, f4 is the effective focal length of the fourth lens, f5 is the effective focal length of the fifth lens, and f6 is the effective focal length of the sixth lens.

The distortion correction amount of this application can reach ≤0.1%. Generally, the distortion amount of such a field angle is about 30%, and this relay lens reduces the distortion by about 99%.
[0059] Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, each lens of the optical system satisfies the following conditions: 2.13 < f1 / f < 3.27; -0.82 < f2 / f < -0.38; -0.77 < f3 / f < -0.31; 0.37 < f4 / f < 0.79; -2.1 < f5 / f < -0.73; 0.21 < f6 / f < 0.73; where f is the focal length of the entire optical system, where f1 is the effective focal length of the first lens, f2 is the effective focal length of the second lens, f3 is the effective focal length of the third lens, f4 is the effective focal length of the fourth lens, f5 is the effective focal length of the fifth lens, and f6 is the effective focal length of the sixth lens. By limiting the ratio of the effective focal length of each lens to the effective focal length of the optical system, the exit pupil diameter can be large, up to ∮5mm, which can increase the exit pupil diameter of the relay lens equipped with this optical system, and will greatly reduce the accuracy requirements for the alignment of the test equipment to the measured lens module and the relay lens.

The refractive index Nd5 and Abbe number constant Vd5 of the fifth lens satisfy: 1.71 < Nd5 < 1.85, 20 < Vd5 < 40; The radius of curvature R9 on the object plane side and the radius of curvature R10 on the image plane side of the fifth lens satisfy: 630 < R9; -500 < R10 < -325; The sixth lens of this application uses a glass material with a low refractive index and a low dispersion coefficient.
