Furthermore, with technological developments and increasingly diverse user needs, the pixel area of photosensitive elements has been shrinking, and the demands for system imaging quality have continued to rise.

[0017] In order to clarify the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, those skilled in the art will understand that many technical details are presented in the embodiments of the present invention to help readers better understand the present invention. However, the technical solutions claimed for the protection of the present invention can be realized without these technical details or various changes and modifications based on the following embodiments.

[0018] With reference to FIGS. 1 to 16, imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40 are provided according to the present invention. FIGS. 1, 5, 9, and 13 show imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40 according to the present invention. Each of the imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40 includes a total of seven lenses. Specifically, the imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40 include, in order from the object side to the image side, a first lens L1, a second lens L2, a third lens L3, a diaphragm S1, a fourth lens L4, a fifth lens L5, a sixth lens L6, and a seventh lens L7. An optical element such as an optical filter GF may be provided between the seventh lens L7 and an image plane Si.

[0019] In this embodiment, the first lens L1 is made of glass, the second lens L2 is made of resin, the third lens L3 is made of resin, the fourth lens L4 is made of glass, the fifth lens L5 is made of resin, the sixth lens L6 is made of resin, and the seventh lens L7 is made of resin. Each lens may be made of other materials.

[0020] The refractive index of the first lens L1 is defined as n1, and the relational expression n1≧1.70 is satisfied. In this way, the refractive index of the first lens L1 is specified. It is preferable that the first lens L1 is made of a high refractive index material. This allows for a reduction in the front end aperture diameter of the imaging optical lens and an improvement in the imaging mass.

[0021] The distance on the optical axis between the image-forming side of the third lens L3 and the object-side of the fourth lens is d6, and the total optical length of the imaging optical lens is TTL, satisfying the relationship 0.06≦d6 / TTL≦0.08. In this way, the proportional value of the distance between the lenses located on both sides of the aperture S1 and the total optical length is specified. Because the distance between the lenses located on both sides of the aperture S1 is large, light rays near the aperture S1 can transition smoothly, improving the imaging mass.

[0022] The angle of view of the imaging optical lens is FOV, the focal length of the imaging optical lens is f, and the image height of the entire field of view of the imaging optical lens is IH, and the following relational expression is satisfied: 100.00≦(FOV×f) / IH≦130.00. This achieves both an ultra-wide angle of view and a long focal length, enabling imaging at medium to long distances.

[0023] The radius of curvature of the center of the object-side surface of the seventh lens L7 is R13, and the radius of curvature of the center of the image-forming side surface of the seventh lens L7 is R14, and the relationship -1.00≦(R13+R14) / (R13-R14)≦-0.70 is satisfied. By specifying the shape of the seventh lens L7 so that the above relationship is satisfied, the amount of field curvature of the system can be effectively balanced, and the shift amount of field curvature in the central field of view can be reduced to less than 0.01 mm. Here, the system is an imaging optical lens.

[0024] The Abbe number of the fifth lens L5 is v5, and the Abbe number of the sixth lens L6 is v6, and the relationship v5-v6≧35.00 is satisfied. In this way, by specifying the difference in Abbe numbers between the fifth lens L5 and the sixth lens L6 so that the above relationship is satisfied, it is possible to effectively distribute the material attributes and effectively correct chromatic aberration so that the relationship chromatic aberration |LC|≦12 μm is satisfied.

[0025] The on-axis thickness of the third lens L3 is d5, and the on-axis thickness of the fourth lens L4 is d7, which satisfy the relationship 0.35≦d5 / d7≦0.70. In this way, by specifying the proportional value between the on-axis thickness of the third lens L3 and the on-axis thickness of the fourth lens L4 so that the above relationship is satisfied, the total optical length of the system can be reduced.

[0026] The telephoto ratio is specified by the total optical length TTL of the imaging optical lens and the focal length f of the imaging optical lens satisfying the relational expression 6.50≦TTL / f≦8.50. When TTL / f is equal to or less than the upper limit of the relational expression, it is possible to control the reduction of the total optical length of the imaging optical lens, making it easier to miniaturize the imaging optical lens. On the other hand, when TTL / f is equal to or more than the lower limit of the relational expression, it is easy to correct distortion aberration and axial chromatic aberration, making it possible to maintain good optical performance of the imaging optical lens.

[0027] When the above-mentioned relational expressions are satisfied, the imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40 have excellent optical performance and can satisfy the design requirements for a large aperture and a wide angle of view. These characteristics of the imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40 make them suitable for use in mobile imaging lens assemblies, web imaging lenses, and fisheye imaging lenses for drones, which are particularly configured with imaging elements such as high-pixel CCDs and CMOSs.

[0028] Based on the above relational expressions and realizable functions, the characteristics of each lens will be described in detail.

[0031] The central curvature of the object-side surface of the first lens L1 is R1, and the central curvature of the image-side surface of the first lens L1 is R2. By satisfying the relationship 0.96≦(R1+R2) / (R1-R2)≦3.01, the shape of the first lens L1 can be reasonably controlled, and the first lens L1 can effectively correct the spherical aberration of the system. It is preferable that the relationship 1.53≦(R1+R2) / (R1-R2)≦2.41 be satisfied.

When this relational expression is satisfied, axial chromatic aberration can be corrected as imaging optical lenses become ultra-thin and have a wide angle of view.

By satisfying the relationship -7.02≦(R5+R6) / (R5-R6)≦-2.07, the shape of the third lens L3 can be specified, making it easier to mold the third lens L3. When this relationship is satisfied, the degree of refraction of light rays passing through the third lens L3 can be reduced, effectively reducing aberrations. It is preferable to satisfy the relationship -4.39≦(R5+R6) / (R5-R6)≦-2.59.
