[0002] In recent years, with the rise of various smart devices, the demand for miniaturized imaging optical lenses has been increasing. In addition to the reduction in pixel size of photosensitive elements, current electronic products tend to be lightweight and portable, so miniaturized imaging optical lenses with good imaging quality have become the mainstream in the current market. To achieve good imaging quality, multi-lens structures are often adopted. Furthermore, with technological development and the increasing diversification of user needs, the pixel area of photosensitive elements is shrinking, and the system requirements for imaging quality are increasing. Therefore, seven-lens structures are gradually appearing in lens designs. There is a growing demand for optical imaging lenses with excellent optical properties, small aberration, high light transmission, good processability, and low assembly sensitivity.

[0031] In order to make the objectives, solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the following detailed description of each embodiment of the present invention will be given with reference to the accompanying drawings. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that many technical details are provided in each embodiment of the present invention to better understand the present invention. However, the technical solution to be protected by the present invention can be realized without these technical details and various changes and modifications based on the following embodiments.
[0032] As shown in Figures 1 to 20, the technical solution of the present invention provides imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50. Figures 1, 5, 9, 13, and 17 show imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 according to the present invention, each of which includes a total of seven lenses. Specifically, the imaging optical lens includes, in order from the object side to the image side, an aperture stop S1, a first lens L1, a second lens L2, a third lens L3, 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 the image plane Si.
[0033] The first lens L1 is made of glass, 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, the sixth lens L6 is made of plastic, and the seventh lens L7 is made of plastic, although each lens may be made of other materials.
[0034] The object-side and image-side surfaces of the first lens L1, second lens L2, third lens L3, fourth lens L4, fifth lens L5, sixth lens L6 and seventh lens L7 are all aspheric.
[0035] The refractive powers of the first lens L1, the second lens L2, the third lens L3, the fourth lens L4, the fifth lens L5, the sixth lens L6, and the seventh lens L7 are positive, negative, negative, positive, negative, positive, and negative, respectively. The first lens L1 has a convex object-side surface and a concave image-side surface. The second lens L2 has a convex object-side surface and a concave image-side surface. The third lens L3 has a concave image-side surface, and the object-side surface of the third lens L3 may be either a concave or convex surface. The fourth lens L4 has a convex object-side surface and a convex image-side surface. The image-side surface of the fifth lens L5 is a concave surface, and the object-side surface of the fifth lens L5 may be either a concave or convex surface. The object-side surface of the sixth lens L6 is a convex surface, and the image-side surface of the sixth lens L6 may be either a concave or convex surface. The image side surface of the seventh lens L7 is a concave surface, and the object side surface of the seventh lens L7 may be either a concave surface or a convex surface.
[0036] When the composite focal length of the first lens L1 and the second lens L2 is f12 and the composite focal length of the third lens L3, the fourth lens L4, the fifth lens L5, the sixth lens L6, and the seventh lens L7 is f34567, the following relationship is satisfied: -0.25≦f12 / f34567≦0.05. Furthermore, the following relationship is satisfied: -0.21≦f12 / f34567≦0.04. By rationally setting the proportional relationship between the composite focal length of the first lens L1 and the second lens L2 and the composite focal lengths of the third lens L3, the fourth lens L4, the fifth lens L5, the sixth lens L6, and the seventh lens L7 within the range of this relationship, it is advantageous to rationally distribute the refractive power of each lens in space and reduce aberrations in the optical system.
[0037] Let TEP be the distance along the optical axis from the aperture stop to the center of the object-side surface of the first lens L1, SAG11 be the arrow height at the maximum optical radius of the object-side surface of the first lens L1, f be the focal length of the imaging optical lens, and R1 be the central radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the first lens L1 in the paraxial direction. The following relationship is satisfied: 0.13≦|TEP / SAG11|*(f / R1)≦2.80. Furthermore, the following relationship is satisfied: 0.15≦|TEP / SAG11|*(f / R1)≦2.50. By rationally controlling the position of the aperture stop and the arrow height of the object-side surface of the first lens within the range of this relationship, the imaging optical lens can have a high amount of incident light and the object-side surface of the first lens can have a reasonable curvature, which is beneficial to improving processing yield and controlling the focal length of the system within an appropriate range.
[0038] When the critical point on the object-side surface of sixth lens L6 closest to the optical axis is defined as the first object-side critical point, the vertical distance from the first object-side critical point to the optical axis is defined as HZD1, and the arrow height of the first object-side critical point is defined as SZD1, the relationship 0.15≦SZD1 / HZD1≦0.30 is satisfied. Furthermore, the relationship 0.18≦SZD1 / HZD1≦0.25 is satisfied. The shape of the object-side surface of the sixth lens, particularly the ratio of the arrow height to the height of the first off-axis critical point, can be reasonably controlled within the range of this relationship, which is advantageous for correcting aberrations by the first to fifth lenses.
[0039] Let the critical point on the image side of the sixth lens L6 closest to the optical axis be the first image side critical point, the vertical distance from the first image side critical point to the optical axis be HZD2, and the arrow height of the first image side critical point be SZD2. The relationship 0.07≦SZD2 / HZD2≦0.25 is satisfied. Furthermore, the relationship 0.08≦SZD2 / HZD2≦0.22 is satisfied. Rationally controlling the shape of the image side of the sixth lens, particularly the ratio of the arrow height to the height of the first off-axis critical point, within the range of this relationship is beneficial to adjusting the direction of light rays after they pass through, making the transition of light rays between the sixth lens and the seventh lens gentler, and reducing assembly sensitivity between the sixth lens and the seventh lens.
[0040] When the focal length of the fifth lens L5 is f5 and the focal length of the sixth lens L6 is f6, the relationship -5.00≦(f5-f6) / f≦-1.40 is satisfied. Furthermore, the relationship -4.40≦(f5-f6) / f≦-1.70 is satisfied. The spherical aberration caused by the fifth lens and the sixth lens can be balanced within the range of the relationship.
[0041] When the axial distance between the image-side surface of the first lens L1 and the object-side surface of the second lens L2 is d2, the axial distance between the image-side surface of the second lens L2 and the object-side surface of the third lens L3 is d4, and the axial distance between the image-side surface of the third lens L3 and the object-side surface of the fourth lens L4 is d6, the following relationship is satisfied: 1.20≦d4 / (d2+d6)≦2.00. Furthermore, the following relationship is satisfied: 1.30≦d4 / (d2+d6)≦1.85. By rationally setting the air spacing between the first to fourth lenses within the range of this relationship, the peripheral structure of the lenses, particularly the thickness of the peripheral portions, can be rationally designed, allowing for more diverse designs for the connection structure between the lenses.
[0042] When the arrow height at the maximum optical radius of the object-side surface of the fifth lens L5 is SAG51 and the axial distance between the image-side surface of the fourth lens L4 and the object-side surface of the fifth lens L5 is d8, the following relationship is satisfied: -1.50≦SAG51 / d8≦-0.90. Furthermore, the following relationship is satisfied: -1.25≦SAG51 / d8≦-0.95. The axial distance between the fourth lens and the fifth lens and the arrow height at the maximum optical radius of the object-side surface of the fifth lens are reasonably controlled within the range of this relationship, thereby avoiding interference between the fourth lens and the fifth lens.
[0043] When the arrow height at the maximum optical radius of the object-side surface of sixth lens L6 is SAG61, the arrow height at the maximum optical radius of sixth lens L6 at the image-side surface is SAG62, and the axial thickness of sixth lens L6 is d11, the relationship 0.20≦(SAG61−SAG62) / d11≦0.50 is satisfied. Furthermore, the relationship 0.23≦(SAG61−SAG62) / d11≦0.45 is satisfied. The shape of the sixth lens is reasonably controlled within the range of the relationship, improving processability.
[0044] When the central radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the second lens L2 at the paraxial position is R3 and the central radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the fifth lens L5 at the paraxial position is R10, the following relationship is satisfied: 0.28≦R3 / R10≦2.65. Furthermore, the following relationship is satisfied: 0.33≦R3 / R10≦2.28. The range of this relationship is advantageous for correcting chromatic aberration, and a balance of various aberrations can be achieved.
[0045] The object-side surface of sixth lens L6 includes a first object-side inflection point closest to the optical axis and a second object-side inflection point other than the first object-side inflection point, and satisfies the relational expression 0.15≦SFD1 / HFD1≦0.28, where HFD1 is the vertical distance from the first object-side inflection point to the optical axis and SFD1 is the arrow height of the first object-side inflection point. Furthermore, the relational expression 0.18≦SFD1 / HFD1≦0.25 is satisfied. The shape of the object-side surface of the sixth lens, particularly the ratio of the arrow height to the height of the first off-axis inflection point, can be reasonably controlled within the range of this relational expression, which is advantageous for correcting aberrations by the first to fifth lenses.
[0046] When the vertical distance from the second object-side inflection point to the optical axis is HFD2 and the arrow height of the second object-side inflection point is SFD2, the relationship -0.12≦SFD2 / HFD2≦0.002 is satisfied. Furthermore, the relationship -0.10≦SFD2 / HFD2≦0.002 is satisfied. The shape of the object-side surface of the sixth lens, particularly the ratio of the arrow height to the height of the second off-axis inflection point, can be reasonably controlled within the range of this relationship, which is advantageous for correcting aberrations, particularly field curvature, caused by the first to fifth lenses.
[0047] The image-side surface of the sixth lens L6 includes a first image-side inflection point closest to the optical axis, and when HFD3 is the vertical distance from the first image-side inflection point to the optical axis and SFD3 is the arrow height of the first image-side inflection point, the relationship 0.10≦SFD3 / HFD3≦0.45 is satisfied. Furthermore, the relationship 0.11≦SFD3 / HFD3≦0.38 is satisfied. Rational control of the shape of the image-side surface of the sixth lens, particularly the ratio of the arrow height to the height of the first off-axis inflection point, within the range of this relationship is advantageous for adjusting the direction of light rays after they pass through, allowing light rays with a large field of view to reach a higher position on the seventh lens, thereby increasing the angle of view.
[0048] When the focal length of the sixth lens L6 is f6 and the axial thickness of the sixth lens L6 is d11, the relationship 6.58≦f6 / d11≦11.78 is satisfied. Furthermore, the relationship 7.69≦f6 / d11≦9.85 is satisfied. By controlling the ratio of the effective focal length of the sixth lens L6 to the central thickness of the sixth lens L6 on the optical axis, the diameter-thickness ratio parameter of the sixth lens L6 can be controlled within a reasonable range, which is advantageous for lens molding for large lenses and reduces residual stress and cosmetic defects.
[0049] The first lens L1 is made of glass, and the Abbe number of the glass combined with the resin lens reduces chromatic aberration and improves the performance of the optical imaging lens.
[0050] Compared with the prior art, the imaging optical lens according to the present invention has the following characteristics: -0.25≦f12 / f34567≦0.05, 0.13≦|TEP / SAG11|*(f / R1)≦2.80, 0.15≦SZD1 / HZD1≦0.30, 0.07≦SZD2 / HZD2≦0.25, -5.00≦(f5-f6) / f≦-1.40, By configuring 1.20≦d4 / (d2+d6)≦2.00 and -1.50≦SAG51 / d8≦-0.90, the aberration of the optical system can be reduced, the imaging optical lens can have a high amount of incident light, and the object side surface of the first lens can have a reasonable curvature, which is beneficial to improving yield, controlling the focal length of the system within an appropriate range, reducing the assembly sensitivity between the sixth lens and the seventh lens, balancing the spherical aberration caused by the fifth lens and the sixth lens, and providing more diversified design for the connection structure between lenses, thereby achieving the technical effects of avoiding interference between the fourth lens and the fifth lens.
[0051] Furthermore, compared with the prior art, the present invention further satisfies the following condition: -0.25≦f12 / f34567 ≦0.05, 0.13≦|TEP / SAG11|*(f / R1)≦2.80, 0.15≦SZD1 / HZD1≦0.30, 0.07≦SZD2 / HZD2≦0.25, 0.15≦SFD1 / HFD1≦0.28, -0.12≦SFD2 / HFD2≦0.002, 0.10≦SFD3 / HFD3≦0.45. This reduces the aberration of the optical system, allows the imaging optical lens to have a high amount of incident light, and allows the object side surface of the first lens to have a reasonable curvature, which is beneficial to improving yield. It also controls the focal length of the system within an appropriate range, reduces the assembly sensitivity between the sixth lens and the seventh lens, corrects the aberration caused by the first to fifth lenses, especially the field curvature, and adjusts the direction of the light rays after passing through, allowing the light rays with a large field of view to reach a high position of the seventh lens, thereby achieving the technical effect of increasing the angle of view.

The symbols used in each example indicate the following: focal length, axial distance, central radius of curvature, axial thickness, vertical distance or arrow height from the inflection point to the optical axis, and vertical distance or arrow height from the critical point to the optical axis are all in mm.

FNO: The ratio of the effective focal length of an imaging optical lens to the entrance pupil diameter. Arrow height: Refers to the distance along the optical axis from a point on the surface to the center point of the surface on the optical axis, with positive values to the right of the center point and negative values to the left of the center point.

FOV at 1.0x field of view: The field angle corresponding to the effective pixels of the sensor. MIC field of view image height: This field of view height extends beyond 1.0 to prevent assembly variations.
