[0016] In order to clarify the objectives, technical ideas, and advantages of the present invention, the following detailed description of each embodiment of the present invention will be given with reference to the drawings. Although many technical details are described in each embodiment of the present invention to facilitate understanding of the present invention, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that the technical ideas protected by the present invention can be realized without these technical details and various changes and modifications based on the following embodiments.

[0017] 1 to 16, the present invention provides imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40. Figures 1, 5, 9, and 13 show imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40 of the present invention, each of which includes a total of six lenses. Specifically, the imaging optical lens includes, in order from the object side to the image side, a first lens L1, a second lens L2, an aperture stop S1, a third lens L3, a fourth lens L4, a fifth lens L5, and a sixth lens L6. An optical element such as an optical filter GF may be provided between the sixth lens L6 and the image plane Si.

[0018] The first lens L1 is made of plastic, the second lens L2 is made of plastic, the third lens L3 is made of plastic, the fourth lens L4 is made of plastic, the fifth lens L5 is made of plastic, and the sixth lens L6 is made of plastic. Each lens may be made of a different material.

[0019] When the central radius of curvature of the object-side surface of first lens L1 is R1 and the central radius of curvature of the image-side surface of first lens L1 is R2, the relational expression 6.00≦R2 / R1≦25.00 is established, and the shape of first lens L1 is specified based on this relational expression. If the radius of curvature is within the range of this relational expression, it is advantageous for correcting astigmatism and distortion of the imaging optical lens, and the possibility of vignetting occurring is reduced.

[0020] When the central radius of curvature of the object-side surface of fourth lens L4 is R7 and the central radius of curvature of the image-side surface of fourth lens L4 is R8, the relationship 2.00≦(R7+R8) / (R7-R8)≦9.00 is established, and the shape of fourth lens L4 is specified by this relationship. When the range of this relationship is met, the degree of deviation of light rays passing through the lens is reduced, and chromatic aberration can be effectively corrected.

[0021] When the axial thickness of the third lens L3 is d5, the axial thickness of the fourth lens L4 is d7, and the axial thickness of the fifth lens L5 is d9, the relational expression 3.00≦(d5+d9) / d7≦9.00 is established, which specifies the ratio of the sum of the axial thicknesses of the third lens L3 and the fifth lens L5 to the axial thickness of the fourth lens L4. Being within the range of this relational expression contributes to shortening the overall optical length of the imaging optical lens, achieving the effect of making it extremely thin.

[0022] When the optical length of the imaging optical lens is TTL and the focal length of the imaging optical lens is f, the relationship 2.00≦TTL / f≦2.30 is established, which specifies the ratio between the optical length and the focal length of the imaging optical lens. If the ratio is within the range of this relationship, it is advantageous to rationally allocate the thickness of each lens in the system and further rationally allocate the refractive power (focal power).

[0023] When the focal length of the sixth lens element L6 is f6 and the axial thickness of the sixth lens element L6 is d11, the ratio of the focal length of the sixth lens element L6 to its axial thickness is defined as -6.00≦f6 / d11≦-3.00. The ratio within this range is advantageous for balancing the lens thickness and rationally distributing the refractive power of the sixth lens element L6.

[0024] When the focal length of the second lens L2 is f2 and the focal length of the third lens L3 is f3, the ratio of the focal lengths of the second lens L2 and the third lens L3 satisfies the relation 2.50≦f2 / f3≦7.00, which specifies the ratio. When the ratio is within this range, the refractive power distribution can be effectively balanced.

[0025] When the above-mentioned relations are satisfied, the imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40 have good optical performance and can meet the design requirements for wide angles. Due to the characteristics of the imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40, the imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40 are particularly suitable for use as imaging lens components for mobile phones and web imaging lenses that are configured with imaging devices such as high-pixel CCDs and CMOSs.

[0026] Based on the above relationships and feasible functions, the characteristics of each lens are further refined as follows:

[0027] The first lens L1 has a paraxially concave object-side surface and a paraxially convex image-side surface, and has negative refractive power. The surface shapes of the object-side and image-side surfaces of the first lens L1 may be other concave / convex distribution shapes.

[0028] When the focal length of the imaging optical lens is f and the focal length of the first lens L1 is f1, the relationship -5.26≦f1 / f≦-1.23 is established, which defines the ratio of the negative refractive power of the first lens L1 to the overall focal length. If the ratio falls within the range of this relationship, the first lens L1 has an appropriate negative refractive power, which is advantageous for reducing system aberrations and for making the lens extremely thin and widening the angle of view. It is also preferable that -3.29≦f1 / f≦-1.54.

[0029] When the central radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the first lens L1 is R1 and the central radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the first lens L1 is R2, the following relationship is established: -2.80≦(R1+R2) / (R1-R2)≦-0.72. By rationally controlling the shape of the first lens L1, the first lens L1 can effectively correct the spherical aberration of the system. It is also preferable that the relationship be -1.75≦(R1+R2) / (R1-R2)≦-0.90.

[0030] When the axial thickness of the first lens L1 is d1 and the total optical length of the imaging optical lens 10 is TTL, the relational expression 0.02≦d1 / TTL≦0.06 is established. Being within the range of this relational expression is advantageous for achieving compactness. Furthermore, it is preferable that 0.02≦d1 / TTL≦0.05.

[0031] The second lens L2 has a paraxially convex object-side surface and a paraxially concave image-side surface, and has positive refractive power. The surface shapes of the object-side and image-side surfaces of the second lens L2 may be other concave / convex distribution shapes.

[0032] When the focal length of the imaging optical lens is f and the focal length of the second lens L2 is f2, the relationship 1.50≦f2 / f≦11.95 is established. Controlling the positive refractive power of the second lens L2 within an appropriate range is advantageous for correcting aberrations in the optical system. It is also preferable that 2.40≦f2 / f≦9.56.

[0033] When the central radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the second lens L2 is R3 and the central radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the second lens L2 is R4, the relational expression -54.86≦(R3+R4) / (R3-R4)≦-4.92 is established, and the shape of the second lens L2 is specified based on this. As lenses become increasingly thinner and wider in angle, being within the range of this relational expression is advantageous for correcting problems such as axial chromatic aberration. It is also preferable that -34.29≦(R3+R4) / (R3-R4)≦-6.15.

[0034] When the axial thickness of the second lens L2 is d3 and the total optical length of the imaging optical lens 10 is TTL, the following relational expression is established: 0.03≦d3 / TTL≦0.11. Being within the range of this relational expression is advantageous for achieving compactness. Furthermore, it is preferable that 0.05≦d3 / TTL≦0.09.

[0035] The third lens L3 has a paraxially convex object-side surface and a paraxially convex image-side surface, and has positive refractive power. The surface shapes of the object-side and image-side surfaces of the third lens L3 may be other concave / convex distribution shapes.

[0036] When the focal length of the imaging optical lens is f and the focal length of the third lens L3 is f3, the relationship 0.57≦f3 / f≦1.79 is established. By appropriately allocating the refractive power, the system has excellent imaging quality and low sensitivity. It is also preferable that 0.92≦f3 / f≦1.44.

[0037] When the central radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the third lens L3 is R5 and the central radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the third lens L3 is R6, the relationship 0.11≦(R5+R6) / (R5-R6)≦0.37 is established. Within this range, the shape of the third lens L3 can be effectively controlled, which is advantageous for molding the third lens L3 and prevents molding defects and stress caused by excessive curvature of the surface of the third lens L3. It is also preferable that 0.18≦(R5+R6) / (R5-R6)≦0.29.

[0038] When the axial thickness of the third lens L3 is d5 and the total optical length of the imaging optical lens 10 is TTL, the following relationship is established: 0.06≦d5 / TTL≦0.18. Being within the range of this relationship is advantageous for achieving compactness. Furthermore, it is preferable that 0.09≦d5 / TTL≦0.14.

[0039] The fourth lens L4 has a paraxially convex object-side surface and a paraxially concave image-side surface, and has negative refractive power. The surface shapes of the object-side and image-side surfaces of the fourth lens L4 may be other concave / convex distribution shapes.

[0040] When the focal length of the imaging optical lens is f and the focal length of the fourth lens L4 is f4, the relationship -9.47≦f4 / f≦-2.92 is established. By appropriately allocating the refractive power, the system has excellent imaging quality and low sensitivity. It is also preferable that -5.92≦f4 / f≦-3.65.

[0041] When the axial thickness of the fourth lens L4 is d7 and the total optical length of the imaging optical lens 10 is TTL, the relational expression 0.03≦d7 / TTL≦0.09 is established. Being within the range of this relational expression is advantageous for achieving compactness. Furthermore, it is preferable that 0.04≦d7 / TTL≦0.07.

[0042] The fifth lens L5 has a paraxially concave object-side surface and a paraxially convex image-side surface, and has positive refractive power. The surface shapes of the object-side and image-side surfaces of the fifth lens L5 may be other concave / convex distribution shapes.

[0043] When the focal length of the imaging optical lens is f and the focal length of the fifth lens L5 is f5, the relational expression 0.29≦f5 / f≦0.89 is established. By limiting the size of the fifth lens L5, the ray angle of the imaging optical lens 10 can be made gentler, reducing tolerance sensitivity. It is also preferable that 0.46≦f5 / f≦0.71.

[0044] When the central radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the fifth lens L5 is R9 and the central radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the fifth lens L5 is R10, the relational expression 0.83≦(R9+R10) / (R9-R10)≦2.60 is established, and the shape of the fifth lens L5 is defined accordingly. Being within the range of this relational expression is advantageous for correcting problems such as aberrations at off-axial angles of view as lenses become increasingly thin and wider in angle of view. It is also preferable that 1.33≦(R9+R10) / (R9-R10)≦2.08.

[0045] When the axial thickness of the fifth lens L5 is d9 and the total optical length of the imaging optical lens 10 is TTL, the following relationship is established: 0.09≦d9 / TTL≦0.26. Being within the range of this relationship is advantageous for achieving compactness. Furthermore, it is preferable that 0.14≦d9 / TTL≦0.21.

[0046] The sixth lens L6 has a paraxially convex object-side surface and a paraxially concave image-side surface, and has negative refractive power. The surface shapes of the object-side and image-side surfaces of the sixth lens L6 may be other concave / convex distribution shapes.

[0047] When the focal length of the imaging optical lens is f and the focal length of the sixth lens L6 is f6, the relationship -1.44≦f6 / f≦-0.48 is established, and the refractive power is reasonably distributed, resulting in excellent imaging quality and low sensitivity as a system. It is also preferable that -0.90≦f6 / f≦-0.59.

[0048] When the central radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the sixth lens L6 is R11 and the central radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the sixth lens L6 is R12, the relational expression 0.89≦(R11+R12) / (R11-R12)≦2.74 is established, and the shape of the sixth lens L6 is defined accordingly. Being within the range of this relational expression is advantageous for correcting problems such as aberrations at off-axial angles of view as lenses become increasingly thin and wider in angle of view. It is also preferable that 1.42≦(R11+R12) / (R11-R12)≦2.19.

[0049] When the axial thickness of the sixth lens L6 is d11 and the total optical length of the imaging optical lens 10 is TTL, the relational expression 0.04≦d11 / TTL≦0.13 is established. Being within the range of this relational expression is advantageous for achieving compactness. Furthermore, it is preferable that 0.07≦d11 / TTL≦0.11.

[0050] When the image height of the imaging optical lens is IH and the total optical length of the imaging optical lens is TTL, the relational expression TTL / IH≦2.39 is established. This is advantageous for achieving an extremely thin lens. Furthermore, it is preferable that TTL / IH≦1.91.

[0051] The field of view FOV of the above imaging optical lens is 100.00° or more, which allows for a wide angle of view.

[0052] The aperture value FNO of the imaging optical lens is 2.26 or less. This allows for a large aperture and the imaging performance of the imaging optical lens to be excellent. It is also preferable that the aperture value FNO of the imaging optical lens is 2.22 or less.
