[0018] 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 will be given with reference to the drawings. However, in the embodiments of the present invention, many technical details are described to allow those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, but it is obvious to those skilled in the art that the technical solutions protected by the present invention can be realized without these technical details and various changes and modifications based on the following embodiments.

[0019] Referring to the drawings, the technical solution of the present invention provides imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, 40, 50. Figures 1, 5, 9, 13, 17 show the imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 of the present invention, which include a total of seven 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 S1, 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 surface Si.

[0020] The first lens L1 is made of glass, the second lens L2 is made of glass, the third lens L3 is made of glass, the fourth lens L4 is made of glass, the fifth lens L5 is made of glass, the sixth lens L6 is made of glass, and the seventh lens L7 is made of glass. Each lens may be made of other materials.

[0021] The object-side surfaces and image-side surfaces of the second lens L2, the third lens L3, the fourth lens L4, and the fifth lens L5 are all spherical, and the object-side surfaces and image-side surfaces of the first lens L1, the sixth lens L6, and the seventh lens L7 are all aspheric.

[0022] 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 relational expression 0≦(R1+R2) / (R1-R2)≦0.50 is established, and the shape of the first lens L1 is regulated. If it is within the range of this relational expression, the degree of deviation of the light beam passing through the lens can be mitigated, and aberration can be effectively reduced.

[0023] When the diagonal 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, the relational expression 110.00≦(FOV*f) / IH≦140.00 has been established. Within the range of this relational expression, a large angle of view and a long focal length can be achieved at the same time, and imaging at medium to long distances can be realized.

[0024] When the focal length of the first lens L1 is f1, the relational expression of -1.70≦f1 / f≦-1.10 is established. This relational expression specifies the ratio of the focal length of the first lens L1 to the imaging optical lens. By reasonably allocating the optical focal length of the imaging optical lens, the field curvature amount of the system can be effectively balanced, and the field curvature offset amount of the central field can be less than 0.02 mm.

[0025] 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 relational expression -3.00≦R5 / R6≦-0.50 is established, and this relational expression specifies the shape of the third lens L3. If it is within the range of this relational expression, the degree of deviation of the light beam passing through the lens can be mitigated, and the aberration can be effectively reduced.

[0026] When the above-mentioned relational expressions are satisfied, the imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 have good optical performance and can meet the design requirements of large aperture, wide angle, and ultra-thinness. According to the characteristics of the imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, the imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 can be applied to imaging lens parts of mobile phones, web imaging lenses, and vehicle-mounted lenses, which are particularly composed of imaging elements such as CCD and CMOS for high pixels.

[0027] Based on the above relationships and feasible functions, the characteristics of each lens are further refined as follows:

[0028] When the axial distance from the seventh lens L7 to the image plane is BFL and the optical total length of the imaging optical lens is TTL, the following relational expression is established: 0.13≦BFL / TTL≦0.22, which specifies the ratio between the back focus and the optical total length of the imaging optical lens. In addition to achieving compactness, the back focus is long, which is advantageous for module assembly, the total length is short, and the structure is compact, and the sensitivity to the MTF of the lens is reduced, which increases the production yield and reduces the production cost.

[0029] The fourth lens L4 and the fifth lens L5 are installed so as to be bonded together. By installing them so as to be bonded together, the overall volume of the imaging optical lens can be reduced, and by installing them so as to be bonded together, the two lenses are integrated into one overall structure, and when assembling the optical module, the installation of the two lenses can be completed with only one placement.

[0030] When the Abbe number of the fourth lens L4 is v4 and the Abbe number of the fifth lens L5 is v5, the relational expression v4-v5≧35.00 is established, which specifies the difference in the Abbe numbers of the cemented lenses. Within the range of this relational expression, the material attributes can be effectively assigned, the chromatic aberration can be effectively corrected, and the chromatic aberration |LC|≦6.0 μm.

[0031] The first lens L1 has a surface on the object side that is concave paraxially, a surface on the image side that is concave paraxially, and has negative refractive power. The surface on the object side and the surface on the image side of the first lens L1 may have other concave and convex distribution forms.

[0032] When the axial thickness of the first lens L1 is d1, the relational expression 0.01≦d1 / TTL≦0.04 is established, and being within the range of this relational expression is advantageous for realizing an extremely thin lens. Also, it is preferable that 0.01≦d1 / TTL≦0.03.

[0034] When the focal length of the second lens L2 is f2, the relational expression of -87.96≦f2 / f≦25.91 is established. By controlling the refractive power of the second lens L2 within a reasonable range, it is advantageous to correct the aberration of the optical system. In addition, it is preferable that -54.97≦f2 / f≦20.73.

[0035] 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 of -51.10≦(R3+R4) / (R3-R4)≦29.91 is established, and the shape of the second lens L2 can be reasonably controlled so that the second lens L2 can effectively correct the chromatic aberration of the system. It is also preferable that -31.94≦(R3+R4) / (R3-R4)≦23.93.

[0036] When the axial thickness of the second lens L2 is d3, the relational expression 0.05≦d3 / TTL≦0.30 is established. If it is within the range of this relational expression, it is advantageous for realizing an extremely thin lens. In addition, it is preferable that 0.09≦d3 / TTL≦0.24.

[0037] The third lens L3 has a positive refractive power, the object side surface of which is convex on the paraxial direction, and the image side surface of which is convex on the paraxial direction. The object side surface and the image side surface of the third lens L3 may have other concave and convex distribution forms.

[0038] When the focal length of the third lens L3 is f3, the relational expression 0.84≦f3 / f≦3.09 is established. By appropriately allocating the refractive power, the system has excellent imaging quality and low sensitivity. In addition, it is preferable that 1.34≦f3 / f≦2.47.

[0039] 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 relational expression -0.66≦(R5+R6) / (R5-R6)≦0.75 is established. This relational expression specifies the shape of the third lens L3. As lenses become thinner and wider in angle, this is advantageous for correcting problems such as aberrations at off-axis angles of view. It is also preferable that -0.41≦(R5+R6) / (R5-R6)≦0.60.

[0040] When the axial thickness of the third lens L3 is d5, the relational expression 0.03≦d5 / TTL≦0.28 is established. If it is within the range of this relational expression, it is advantageous for realizing an extremely thin lens. In addition, it is preferable that 0.04≦d5 / TTL≦0.22.

[0041] The fourth lens L4 has a positive refractive power, its object side surface is formed as a paraxial convex surface, its image side surface is formed as a paraxial convex surface, and the object side surface and the image side surface of the fourth lens L4 may have other concave and convex distribution forms.

[0042] When the focal length of the fourth lens L4 is f4, the relational expression 0.62≦f4 / f≦2.40 is established. By appropriately allocating the refractive power, the system has excellent imaging quality and low sensitivity. In addition, it is preferable that 1.00≦f4 / f≦1.92.

[0043] When the central radius of curvature of the object side surface of the fourth lens L4 is R7 and the central radius of curvature of the image side surface of the fourth lens L4 is R8, the relational expression 0.02≦(R7+R8) / (R7-R8)≦0.36 is established. This relational expression specifies the shape of the fourth lens L4. If it is within the range of this relational expression, it helps to make the transition of light gentler and improves the image quality. In addition, it is preferable that 0.03≦(R7+R8) / (R7-R8)≦0.29.

[0044] When the axial thickness of the fourth lens L4 is d7, the relational expression 0.05≦d7 / TTL≦0.37 is established. If the relational expression is within the range, it is advantageous for realizing a very thin lens. In addition, it is preferable that 0.07≦d7 / TTL≦0.29.

[0045] The fifth lens L5 has a paraxially concave object side surface and a paraxially concave image side surface, and has negative refractive power. The object side surface and the image side surface of the fifth lens L5 may have other concave and convex distribution forms.

[0046] When the focal length of the fifth lens L5 is f5, the relational expression of -2.61≦f5 / f≦-0.66 is established. By limiting the fifth lens L5, the light ray angle of the imaging optical lens 10 can be made gentler, and the tolerance sensitivity can be reduced. In addition, it is preferable that -1.63≦f5 / f≦-0.83.

[0047] 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 of -0.92≦(R9+R10) / (R9-R10)≦-0.31 is established, and the shape of the fifth lens L5 is specified. If it is within the range of this relational expression, it is advantageous for correcting astigmatism and distortion of the imaging optical lens.

[0050] When the focal length of the imaging optical lens is f and the focal length of the sixth lens L6 is f6, the relational expression of 0.51≦f6 / f≦2.55 is established, and by appropriately allocating the refractive power, the system has excellent imaging quality and low sensitivity. It is also preferable that 0.81≦f6 / f≦2.04.

[0051] When the radius of curvature of the center of the surface of the sixth lens L6 on the object side is R11 and the radius of curvature of the center of the surface of the sixth lens L6 on the image side is R12, the relational expression of 0.02≦(R11+R12) / (R11-R12)≦1.50 is established, and the shape of the sixth lens L6 is regulated. If it is within the range of this relational expression, it is advantageous for correcting problems such as aberrations of the off-axis angle of view as the lens becomes extremely thin and the angle of view becomes wider. In addition, it is preferable that 0.03≦(R11+R12) / (R11-R12)≦1.20.

[0052] When the axial thickness of the sixth lens L6 is d11, the relational expression 0.05≦d11 / TTL≦0.24 is established. If the relational expression is within the range, it is advantageous for realizing a very thin lens. In addition, it is preferable that 0.08≦d11 / TTL≦0.19.

[0053] The seventh lens L7 has a negative refractive power, its object side surface is convex on the paraxial direction, and its image side surface is concave on the paraxial direction.
