However, those skilled in the art will understand that many technical details have been provided in the various embodiments of this invention to facilitate a better understanding of the invention. However, the technical solutions claimed in this invention can be implemented even without these technical details and with various variations and modifications based on the following embodiments.

[0042] Referring to Figures 1, 6, 11, and 16, the technical solution of the present invention provides a camera optical lens 10, 20, 30, and 40.

[0043] The focal lengths of the imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40 are defined as f, and the focal length of the first lens L1 is defined as f1, satisfying the following relationship 0.30 ≤ f1 / f ≤ 0.70, which specifies the ratio of the focal length of the first lens L1 to the focal lengths of the imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40. By rationally allocating the optical focal lengths of the system, the imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40 achieve better imaging quality and lower sensitivity.

[0044] The combined focal length of the first lens L1 and the second lens L2 is defined as f12, and the combined focal length of the second lens L2, the third lens L3, and the fourth lens L4 is defined as f234, satisfying the following relationship: -1.40≤f12 / f234≤-0.04. This defines the ratio of the combined focal length f12 of the first lens L1 and the second lens L2 to the combined focal length f234 of the second lens L2, the third lens L3, and the fourth lens L4. By reasonably allocating the optical focal length of the system, the system can achieve better imaging quality and lower sensitivity.

[0045] The central radius of curvature of the object side of the first lens L1 is defined as R1, and the central radius of curvature of the image side of the first lens L1 is defined as R2, satisfying the following relationship: -3.00≤R1 / R2≤-1.00. This specifies the ratio of the central radius of curvature of the object side to the central radius of curvature of the image side of the first lens L1, thus defining the shape of the first lens L1. This is beneficial for correcting astigmatism and distortion of the camera lens, ensuring that the distortion |Distortion|≤0.8%, and reducing the possibility of vignetting.

[0046] The axial distance from the object side of the first lens L1 to the image side of the fourth lens L4 is defined as Td, and the total optical length of the imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40 is defined as TTL, satisfying the following relationship: 0.16≤Td / TTL≤0.21. This specifies the ratio of the axial distance from the object side of the first lens L1 to the image side of the fourth lens L4 to the total optical length of the imaging optical lens 10. Within the range specified by the condition, the front end length of the periscope lens can be controlled to be shorter, which helps to reduce the thickness of the lens module.

[0047] The axial thickness of the third lens L3 is defined as d5, and the distance from the maximum effective aperture on the object side to the maximum effective aperture on the image side of the third lens L3 in the direction parallel to the optical axis is ET3, satisfying the following relationship: 0.05≤d5 / ET3≤0.66. This specifies the ratio of the axial thickness of the third lens L3 to the distance from the maximum effective aperture on the object side to the maximum effective aperture on the image side of the third lens L3 in the direction parallel to the optical axis, which is helpful for the processing of the third lens L3 and beneficial for lens assembly.

[0048] Under the above conditions, the camera optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40 have good optical performance while meeting the design requirements of telephoto and miniaturization. Based on the characteristics of the camera optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40, they are particularly suitable for mobile phone camera optical lens assemblies and WEB camera optical lenses composed of high-pixel CCD, CMOS, and other camera elements.

This specifies the ratio of the central radius of curvature of the object side to the central radius of curvature of the image side of the first lens L1, thus defining the surface shape of the first lens L1. This can effectively reduce the sensitivity of the system, reduce the generation of stray light, thereby improving the overall imaging quality of the lens, and at the same time, it can also improve the manufacturing yield.

[0052] The object-side surface of the first lens L1 is convex near the axis, and the image-side surface of the first lens L1 is also convex near the axis. The object-side surface and image-side surface of the first lens L1 can also be configured with other concave and convex distributions.

This specifies the ratio of the focal length f2 of the second lens L2 to the system focal length f. Through the reasonable allocation of optical power, the system has better imaging quality and lower sensitivity.

[0056] The central radius of curvature of the object side of the second lens L2 is R3, and the central radius of curvature of the image side of the second lens L2 is R4, satisfying the following relationship: -0.68≤(R3+R4) / (R3-R4)≤8.29. This defines the ratio of the sum of the central radius of curvature R3 of the object side and the central radius of curvature R4 of the image side of the second lens L2 to the difference between the central radius of curvature R3 of the object side and the central radius of curvature R4 of the image side of the second lens L2. This defines the shape of the second lens L2. Within the range specified by the condition, it is beneficial to correct on-axis chromatic aberration and improve the image quality of the system.

[0057] The on-axis thickness of the second lens L2 is d3, and the total optical length of the imaging optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40 is TTL, satisfying the following relationship: 0.016≤d3 / TTL≤0.034. Within the range of the condition, it is beneficial to achieve miniaturization.

[0058] The object side of the third lens L3 is either convex or concave near the axis, and the image side of the third lens L3 is either concave or convex near the axis.

[0059] The focal lengths of the camera optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40 are defined as f, and the focal length of the third lens L3 is defined as f3, satisfying the following relationship: -0.90≤f3 / f≤-0.41. This specifies the ratio of the focal length f3 of the third lens L3 to the system focal length f. Through the reasonable allocation of optical power, the system has better imaging quality and lower sensitivity.

[0060] The central radius of curvature of the object side of the third lens L3 is R5, and the central radius of curvature of the image side of the third lens L3 is R6, satisfying the following relationship: -5.51≤(R5+R6) / (R5-R6)≤1.34. This defines the shape of the third lens L3 and specifies the ratio of the sum of the central radii of curvature R5 and R6 of the object side of the third lens L3 to the difference between the central radii of curvature R5 and R6 of the image side of the third lens L3. This defines the shape of the third lens L3. Within the range specified by the condition, it is beneficial to the shaping of the third lens L3, which can mitigate the degree of light deflection after passing through the lens and effectively reduce aberrations.

[0061] The on-axis thickness of the third lens L3 is d5, and the total optical length of the camera optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40 is TTL, satisfying the following relationship: 0.018≤d5 / TTL≤0.024. Within the range of the condition, it is beneficial to achieve miniaturization.

[0062] The object-side surface of the fourth lens L4 is either convex or concave near the axis, and the image-side surface of the fourth lens L4 is convex near the axis. The image-side surface of the fourth lens L4 can also be set to be concave.

[0063] The focal lengths of the camera optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40 are defined as f, and the focal length of the fourth lens L4 is defined as f4, satisfying the following relationship: 0.72≤f4 / f≤1.02. This specifies the ratio of the focal length f4 of the fourth lens L4 to the system focal length f. Through the reasonable allocation of optical power, the system has better imaging quality and lower sensitivity.

[0064] The central radius of curvature of the object side of the fourth lens L4 is R7, and the central radius of curvature of the image side of the fourth lens L4 is R8, satisfying the following relationship: 0.97≤(R7+R8) / (R7-R8)≤2.39. This specifies the ratio of the sum of the central radius of curvature R7 of the object side and the central radius of curvature R8 of the image side of the fourth lens L4 to the difference between the central radius of curvature R7 of the object side and the central radius of curvature R8 of the image side of the fourth lens L4.

[0065] The on-axis thickness of the fourth lens L4 is d7, and the total optical length of the camera optical lenses 10, 20, 30, and 40 is TTL, satisfying the following relationship: 0.024≤d7 / TTL≤0.030. Within the range of the condition, it is beneficial to achieve miniaturization.

[0066] In this invention, the first lens L1 is made of glass or plastic, the second lens L2, the third lens L3, and the fourth lens L4 are all made of plastic, and the prism P1 is made of glass. The lenses and prism P1 can also be made of other materials.

[0067] In this invention, an optical element such as an optical filter GF is disposed before the prism P1 and the image plane Si. The optical filter GF can be a glass cover or an optical filter. The optical filter GF can also be disposed in other positions.

[0068] In this invention, an aperture S1 is also provided, which is located between the third lens L3 and the fourth lens L4, or between the first lens L1 and the second lens L2. The aperture S1 can also be located in other positions.

When the principal ray of the 0 field of view enters the camera optical lens 10 along the first optical axis I1, the ray will pass through the first lens L1, the second lens L2, the third lens L3, and the fourth lens L4 in sequence. Then the ray is incident on the prism P1 through the first penetration surface T1. After being reflected by the first reflection surface B1, the ray travels along the second optical axis I2. After being reflected by the second reflection surface B2, the ray travels along the third optical axis I3.
