[0090] The present disclosure provides a light path folding module, which includes a light path folding element and an opaque body, wherein the opaque body is disposed relative to the light path folding element. The light path folding element is for folding an incident optical axis to an exiting optical axis, and the light path folding element includes a light incident surface and a light exiting surface. The incident optical axis passes through and enters into the light incident surface. The exiting optical axis passes through and is away from the light exiting surface. The opaque body includes a non-closed ring structure and a plurality of light blocking structures. The exiting optical axis passes through a notch opening of the non-closed ring structure. The light blocking structures extend towards the exiting optical axis from the non-closed ring structure along a direction perpendicular to the exiting optical axis, wherein the light blocking structures are disposed adjacent to the light exiting surface of the light path folding element. When the exiting optical axis as a center of circle is taken, an angle occupied by the light blocking structures is 0e, and a number of the light blocking structures is Ne, the following conditions are satisfied: 10 degrees <0e <350 degrees; and 15 <Ne <460. Therefore, the non-imaging light outside the field of view can be blocked by arranging the light blocking structures towards the direction of the exiting optical axis so as to maintain the image being clear.

[0091] Specifically, the light path folding element can be a prism, a reflector, etc. Each of the light blocking structures can be wedge-shaped, straight strip-shaped, petal-shaped, semi-cylindrical shape or a wavy-shaped, etc. Furthermore, if the direction parallel to the exiting optical axis is Z axis, then the direction perpendicular to the exiting optical axis is any direction on an XY plane defined by X axis and Y axis.

[0092] Furthermore, the non-closed ring structure can be an appearance feature of the opaque body, such as C-shaped, U-shaped, straight-shaped, etc., but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. The light blocking structure can be arranged on the non-closed ring structure substantially along a circumferential direction surrounding the exiting optical axis.

[0093] Each of the light blocking structures can extend towards the exiting optical axis and gradually shrink and intersect. Therefore, the light blocking performance of the light blocking structures can be enhanced.

[0094] The opaque body and the light blocking structures can be formed integrally. Therefore, the assembling process between the opaque body and the light blocking structures can be eliminated to make the manufacturing process faster.

[0095] When the exiting optical axis as the center of circle is taken, the angle occupied by the light blocking structures is 0e, and a number of the light blocking structures is Ne, the following conditions are satisfied: 10 degrees <0e <150 degrees; and 15 <Ne <250. Therefore, the reflection path of non-imaging light on the surface of specific location of the opaque body can be destroyed, so that the non-imaging light cannot enter the imaging lens assembly, thereby improving the image quality. Specifically, the light blocking structures can be arranged at the non-closed ring structure along the straight-shaped.

[0096] When the exiting optical axis as the center of circle is taken, the angle occupied by the light blocking structures is 0e, and the number of the light blocking structures is Ne, the following conditions are satisfied: 110 degrees <0e <350 degrees; and 50 <Ne <300. Therefore, the light blocking requirement of different optical designs can be satisfied so as to improve the optical design margin. Specifically, the light blocking structures can be arranged at the non-closed ring structure along U-shaped.

[0097] Each of the light blocking structures is a wedge-shaped protrusion. When the wedge-shaped protrusion has an included angle 0e', the following condition is satisfied: 0 degrees <0e' <90 degrees. Therefore, it is favorable for destroying the reflection path of non-imaging light by the shape design of the wedge-shaped protrusion so as to improve the light blocking effect. Specifically, the opaque body can be a holder or a carrier formed by plastic injection molding, which is transferred into the wedge-shaped or the semi-cylindrical appearance of each of the light blocking structures by the mold. The opaque body can also be a light blocking sheet formed by stamping manufacturing process, which is cut into the wedge-shaped or the petal shaped appearance of each of the light blocking structures via the mold, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0098] Each of the light blocking structures forms a convex arc. When the convex arc has a curvature radius Re, the following condition is satisfied: 0 mm <Re <0.3 mm. Therefore, it is favorable for destroying the reflection path of non-imaging light so as to improve the light blocking effect.

[0099] Each of the light blocking structures forms a concave arc. When the concave arc has a curvature radius Re', the following condition is satisfied: 0 mm <Re' <0.3 mm. Therefore, it is favorable for destroying the reflection path of non-imaging light so as to improve the light blocking effect.

[0100] The non-closed ring structure can further include at least one auxiliary arc, and at least one portion of the light blocking structures is disposed on the auxiliary arc. When the auxiliary arc has a curvature radius r, the following condition is satisfied: 0.5 mm <r <50 mm. Therefore, the flare at the specific angle can be eliminated to make the image being clear. Specifically, each light blocking structure (including the wedge-shaped protrusion, the convex arc, the concave arc or the convex arc and the concave arc arranged continuously) can be further disposed at the auxiliary arc.

[0101] When a height of each of the light blocking structures extending along the direction perpendicular to the exiting optical axis is He, the following condition is satisfied: 0.01 mm <He <1.2 mm. Therefore, the height extension range with the better light blocking effect is achieved.

[0102] When a length of each of the light blocking structures extending along a direction parallel to the exiting optical axis is Le, the following condition is satisfied: 0.01 mm <Le <2.8 mm. Therefore, the length extension range with the better light blocking effect is achieved.

[0103] Furthermore, the light path folding element can be made of plastic material, and the opaque body can be made of black plastic material, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0104] The present disclosure provides a light path folding module, including a light path folding element and an opaque body, wherein the opaque body is disposed relative to the light path folding element. The light path folding element is for folding an incident optical axis to an exiting optical axis, and the light path folding element includes a light incident surface and a light exiting surface. The incident optical axis passes through and enters into the light incident surface. The exiting optical axis passes through and is away from the light exiting surface. The opaque body includes a non-closed ring structure and a plurality of light blocking structures. The incident optical axis passes through a notch opening of the non-closed ring structure. The light blocking structures extend toward the incident optical axis from the non-closed ring structure along a direction perpendicular to the incident optical axis, wherein the light blocking structures are disposed adjacent to the light incident surface of the light path folding element. When the incident optical axis as a center of circle, an angle occupied by the light blocking structures is 0i, and a number of the light blocking structures is Ni, the following conditions are satisfied: 10 degrees <0i <350 degrees; and 15 <Ni <460. Therefore, the non-imaging light outside the field of view can be blocked by arranging the light blocking structure toward the direction of the incident optical axis so as to maintain the image being clear.

[0105] Each of the light blocking structures can extend toward the incident optical axis and gradually shrink and intersect. Therefore, the light blocking performance of the light blocking structures can be enhanced.

[0106] The opaque body and the light blocking structures can be formed integrally. Therefore, the assembling process between the opaque body and the light blocking structures can be eliminated to make the manufacturing process faster.

[0107] When the incident optical axis as the center of circle is taken, the angle occupied by the light blocking structures is 0i, and a number of the light blocking structures is Ni, the following conditions are satisfied: 10 degrees <0i <150 degrees; and 15 <Ni <250. Therefore, the reflection path of non-imaging light on the surface of specific location of the opaque body can be destroyed, so that non-imaging light cannot enter the imaging lens assembly, thereby improving the image quality. Specifically, the light blocking structures can be arranged at the non-closed ring structure along straight-shaped.

[0108] When the incident optical axis as the center of circle is taken, the angle occupied by the light blocking structures is 0i, and the number of the light blocking structures is Ni, the following conditions are satisfied: 110 degrees <0i <350 degrees; and 50 <Ni <300. Therefore, the light blocking requirement of different optical designs can be satisfied so as to improve the optical design margin. Specifically, the light blocking structures can be arranged at the non-closed ring structure along U-shaped.

[0109] Each of the light blocking structures is a wedge-shaped protrusion. When the wedge-shaped protrusion has an included angle 0i', the following condition is satisfied: 0 degrees <0i' <90 degrees. Therefore, it is favorable for destroying the reflection path of non-imaging light by the shape design of the wedge-shaped protrusion so as to improve the light blocking effect.

[0110] Each of the light blocking structures forms a convex arc. When the convex arc has a curvature radius Ri, the following condition is satisfied: 0 mm <Ri <0.3 mm. Therefore, it is favorable for destroying the reflection path of non-imaging light so as to improve the light blocking effect.

[0111] Each of the light blocking structures forms a concave arc. When the concave arc has a curvature radius Ri', the following condition is satisfied: 0 mm <Ri' <0.3 mm. Therefore, it is favorable for destroying the reflection path of non-imaging light so as to improve the light blocking effect.

[0112] The non-closed ring structure can further include at least one auxiliary arc, and at least one portion of the light blocking structures is disposed on the auxiliary arc. When the auxiliary arc has a curvature radius r, the following condition is satisfied: 0.5 mm <r <50 mm. Therefore, the flare at the specific angle can be eliminated to make the image being clear. Specifically, each light blocking structure (including the wedge-shaped protrusion, the convex arc, the concave arc or the convex arc and the concave arc arranged continuously) can be further disposed at the auxiliary arc.

[0113] When a height of each of the light blocking structures extending along the direction perpendicular to the incident optical axis is Hi, the following condition is satisfied: 0.01 mm <Hi <1.2 mm. Therefore, the height extension range with the better light blocking effect is achieved.

[0114] When a length of each of the light blocking structures extending along a direction parallel to the incident optical axis is Li, the following condition is satisfied: 0.01 mm <Li <2.8 mm. Therefore, the length extension range with the better light blocking effect is achieved.

[0115] Furthermore, the light path folding element can be made of plastic material, and the opaque body can be made of black plastic material, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
